Regulation and Risks with Asbestos

Regulations require property owners, employers and property managers to identify asbestos at facilities they currently own or manage. Whether the property is undergoing refinancing or redevelopment, the owner needs to know the financial risks and scheduling impacts associated with hazardous building materials. If these materials are identified during the project planning phase or the environmental phase of overall due diligence, the costs and scheduling impacts can be effectively planned and managed.
