AIR > Overview

As you might know, asbestos may be found in insulation, construction materials, siding, roofing or caulking - even today, due to historic use of asbestos in construction. Therefore, when demolition or renovation work occurs in such buildings, there is a risk of asbestos becoming released to the environment, which has both environmental and human health impacts.

Please continue on to discussions in the expanded content section of the EVC for asbestos and air emissions at the campus power plant to learn more.
