Asbestos Surveys in Texas

Each municipality has its own rules and forms to show compliance with this law. Municipalities are obligated by law to confirm that a survey was performed before they will issue a permit, not whether any asbestos-containing materials were found or what you intend to do if they were.
The Texas Asbestos Health Protection Rules and Federal asbestos regulations also apply to renovation and demolition regardless of the results of the survey or the issuance of a building permit. Texas State Environmental has provided asbestos surveys throughout the state of Texas. We have the ability to travel to your location, no matter where in Texas, and provide you with the asbestos survey that you need in order to obtain your permit. An asbestos survey must be conducted in accordance with the Texas Asbestos Health Protection Rules (TAHPR) and the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the areas being renovated and/or demolished. A fiber cannot be identified or ruled out as asbestos, either using the naked eye or by simply looking at a fiber under a regular microscope.
Texas Senate Bill 509 requires municipalities to verify that an asbestos survey has been conducted prior to issuing renovation or demolition permits for public or commercial buildings, and affects renovation and demolition permits for public or commercial buildings issued by municipalities on or after January 1, 2002.
