Federal and state asbestos control regulations require close oversight of all activities related to maintenance, repair, and construction of UC-owned and -leased buildings that may contain asbestos.
Only the following departments are allowed to conduct and manage asbestos abatement programs at UC San Diego:
- Facilities Design & Construction
- Facilities Management
- Housing & Dining Services
- Medical Center Facilities Engineering
UC San Diego has an asbestos management program in place to protect the health of the campus community.
As an employee, you have a right to know about the presence of asbestos in certain materials used in the construction of UC San Diego buildings. Environment, Health & Safety has conducted a survey to identify those areas at UC San Diego where asbestos-containing building materials (ACBM) are present and maintains a database of this information.
