| Sarasota County Air Quality regulates
asbestos throughout the county and its municipalities.
County Code 54-119(c) 1 incorporates federal
and state rules requiring a Notice of Asbestos Renovation Or
Demolition form received in the Air Quality office 10 working
days prior to demolition.
Regulated asbestos renovations include all commercial
and public facilities, including, but not limited to, a private
residence in a dwelling of more than four units, a private
residence that was ever used as commercial.
An asbestos survey is required prior to
renovation or demolition.
Asbestos Inspection
Resource Protection inspects building
demolition and renovation projects that may have asbestos
containing material. If a project involves any demolition or
renovation, rules governing the removal of asbestos containing
material are followed.
An Asbestos Survey or an Asbestos Project
Notification may apply to all demolitions and renovations except
single family homes or buildings having four or fewer units that
do not involve past commercial use.
These survey notifications are required by
federal and state laws and are required to be conducted by a
licensed asbestos consultant prior to conducting any demolition
or renovation.
If asbestos is being deposited in the Sarasota
County Landfill, a Waste Shipment Record (WSR) must accompany
the load. See form within the RP FDEP Notice of Asbestos
Renovation or Demolition.
