Asbestos was mostly phased out of these building products in the 1970s and 1980s. However, it is still mined in other countries and used in building products today. Public and private building owners often inspect their buildings so that they can protect their employees and adhere to OSHA requirements. The National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants requires all buildings, despite their age, to be inspected by a licensed asbestos inspector prior to being demolished or prior to significant renovations. Additionally, an asbestos abatement design is sometimes required, depending on the type and quantity of asbestos removed, to help protect public health and adhere to local, state and federal regulations.
