Sec.19a-333-12. Warning labels  


Latest version.
  • (a) The local education agency shall attach a warning label adjacent to any friable or nonfriable ACBM or suspected ACBM assumed to be ACM located in routine maintenance areas (such as boiler rooms) at each school building. These labels shall be placed adjacent to the following locations:

    (1) friable ACBM for which the response was any action other than removal, and

    (2) ACBM for which no response action was carried out.

    (b) All labels shall be of large size and prominently displayed in readily visible locations so that persons may read the signs and take necessary protective steps before entering the area. All labels shall remain posted until the ACBM that is labeled is removed.

    (c) The warning label shall read, in black print on a contrasting yellow background, as follows:

    CAUTION: ASBESTOS, HAZARDOUS, DO NOT DISTURB WITHOUT PROPER TRAINING AND EQUIPMENT.

    (d) The local education agency shall post these labels in a bilingual form whenever it determines that a significant student and/or employee population requires a translated format.
