Before any demolition project, whether residential or commercial, Pasco County requires a certified asbestos survey to ensure compliance with local and federal regulations. The law mandates testing and safe removal of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) before any structure is demolished.
Demolition activities can release harmful asbestos fibers into the air, posing severe health risks. To comply with NESHAP (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants), all regulated asbestos-containing materials (RACM) must be removed by a licensed asbestos contractor. This prevents hazardous materials from contaminating the environment and ensures the safety of workers and surrounding communities.
In Pasco County, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) oversees asbestos regulations. Before commencing any demolition or renovation project, property owners or contractors must conduct a thorough asbestos survey performed by a Florida-licensed asbestos consultant. This survey is mandatory regardless of the presence of asbestos-containing materials and must be completed prior to the initiation of any work.
Additionally, a Notice of Demolition or Asbestos Renovation must be submitted to the DEP at least 10 working days before the project begins. All asbestos removal activities must be carried out by certified professionals in compliance with the standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to ensure public health and safety.
Certain single-family homes and small apartment buildings may be exempt from some asbestos regulations, but any large-scale demolition project in Pasco County must comply fully with the law. If you're demolishing or renovating older buildings in New Port Richey, Holiday or Hudson, it's crucial to have asbestos testing done before work begins.
