PACNY is supporting this bill, based on their research that many
residential projects are not notified and are done illegally because of the steep fee structure. Placing homeowners and occupants in danger. In addition, because of recent flooding from natural disasters many homes have been condemned requiring them to pay the maximum
asbestos notification fee of $4,000 to
demolish the home. This fee for demolition has been the subject of many articles regarding this cost that cities, towns, and villages are required to pay increasing the cost in doing demolition in the
Southern Tier,
Catskills, and other regions. Visit the
New York State Asbestos Group on Linked-in, regarding the discussion of this issue.
This is not the first time this issue has been discussed, a previous
Senate Bill S748-2011 in the
New York State Senate sponsored by State Senator Catherine Young wanted to modify the fees that residential one & two family owner occupied homes paid in doing
asbestos abatement work - capping the notification fee at $500.
We agree that the notification fees need to be addressed, especially for residential work. Though not convinced that the fee should be addressed in this manner. Senator Young's bill handles it much simply and probably should be expanded to include residential homes/houses slated for demolition (or
controlled demolition by a municipality).

Thanks for keeping us up to date on this issue.
Where is the most common place for a residents to find asbestos in there homes?
Hi,
Thanks for the effort you go through by posting these blog. But usually Asbestos Removal in Phoenix say, "asbestos is not that much of a danger as long as you know where it is and how to threat it". Not much of a danger just because you have it inside your house. The trick if you gotta know if you have it or not.
Homes containing asbestos should have an inspection done to make sure the indoor air quality is safe. It can be hard to find so leaving it to professionals is a good Idea.
And if your an asbestos removal specialist company/business or removal marketing business that implements safety asbestos removal,mold remediation asbestos and damage restoration sewage then contact Asbestos Removal Online Lead Generation Service an asbestos Lead Generating Website that renders local internet leads for any local asbestos removal marketing company business and find pre-qualified prospects as well as local customers.
Asbestos removal is important because it can help save a person from possible exposure to its toxic fibers.
