    Join us this month as host Alan Agadoni interviews Tom Laubenthal, subject matter expert in environmental consulting with specialties in asbestos and lead-based paint. Tune in to learn about how ASTM transformed the screening process for risks like asbestos, lead-based paint, lead in drinking water, and mold/IAQ, known as beyond the scope of CERCLA. Plus, learn about the process for how EPs can avoid liability and protect the health and safety of their team and building occupants by keeping up to date with these “non-scope considerations.”
