New DEP Asbestos Rules In Effect

On June 6, 2010 the new DEP asbestos rules and regulations went into effect.

The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) requires asbestos abatement activities to be completed at a job site before the Department of Buildings (DOB) can issue a permit for any related construction work. Specifically, applicants must submit the Asbestos Project Completion Form (ACP21) or an Asbestos Project Conditional Completion Form (ACP20) to DOB.

The changes in the asbestos rules and regulations are related to concurrent demolition and abatement.
