Asbestos Surveys & Building Permits
Obtain an Asbestos Survey
An asbestos survey conducted by a Certified Asbestos Consultant will identify all of the asbestos present in your construction project.
To find a comprehensive list of Certified Asbestos Consultants in Sacramento County, please visit the State of California Department of Industrial Relations webpage at:
http://www.dir.ca.gov/databases/doshcaccsst/caccsst_query_1.html
Once you have hired a Certified Asbestos Consultant, provide them this Asbestos Renovation/Demolition Survey & Notification Form (notification) and have them complete and sign the consultant use only section. You fill out the rest of the form.
Submit the Completed Asbestos Survey to the Sac Metro Air District
Once a survey is completed, submit it and the notification form to asbestos@airquality.org for review.
Within two business days of submitting the survey and the notification, Sac Metro Air District will either approve and send the notification to you or return the notification for corrections.
Submit the Survey to the Building Department to Clear a Hold
You will need to take the approved notification to the building department to receive your building permit, provided you have met all other building department requirements.
There is currently no fee to review a notification where no asbestos is being impacted and no demolition is being completed for your project. If the asbestos survey determines regulated asbestos containing materials (RACM) are present in your facility and they are part of your renovation or demolition project, additional forms, fees and notification time periods may be required.
