Cracked, deteriorated, or disturbed suspect material should be left alone while the condition and next steps are assessed.
Owners and managers may need a defined abatement scope before construction, occupancy changes, or capital improvements.
Environmental evaluation and required notifications may affect when demolition can begin and how materials are handled.
