Dear Mr. Guadet:
This is in response to your November 17, 2005 letter requesting clarification of the applicability of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180) to shipments of asbestos contained in manufactured articles.
As provided in § 172.102, Special Provision 156, asbestos contained in manufactured articles, (for example, vinyl floor tiles or roofing papers), or immersed or fixed in a natural or artificial binder material (for example, cement or asphalt) is not subject to the HMR. However, asbestos containing material that has been subject to abrading, sanding or cutting such that the asbestos is no longer contained in the manufactured article is subject to the HMR.
I hope this information is helpful. Please contact us if you require additional assistance.
Sincerely,
John A. Gale
Chief, Standards Development
Office of Hazardous Materials Standards
