Hazardous materials are substances that have hazardous characteristics and if not managed properly they can present potential risks to human health and/or the environment. Hazardous materials can be found in building materials, supplies, and may be in regular use at any facility. Common examples include asbestos, lead-based paint, poly-chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), petroleum products, cleaning and maintenance supplies and process chemicals.
There is a myriad of federal, state and local regulations governing the proper use, storage and disposal of hazardous materials.
