Provision of Asbestos Inspections and Remediation

The PTA requires the services of a specialist environmental consultancy to conduct asbestos inspections and risk assessments, and to plan and manage the remediation of asbestos buildings and structures. The PTA is responsible for asbestos in approximately 30 buildings within the Perth metropolitan and regional areas. PTA owned and managed land also contains an unknown quantity of underground asbestos structures such as pits and pipework. The PTA has an ongoing funded program to proactively inspect and remediate asbestos buildings and structures to minimise risk to human health. The long term objective of the PTA’s program is to remove all known asbestos from its buildings and structures, acknowledging that this is not possible in some locations due to operational requirements or where the asbestos is an integral part of a building’s structural stability.
