Asbestos-Related Web Sites

Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization
Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO) was founded by asbestos victims and their families. We seek to give asbestos victims a united voice to help ensure that our rights are fairly represented and protected. As an independent organization, ADAO will not be influenced by outside sources such as drug companies, law firms, or companies that manufacture or use asbestos. ADAO is fully funded through voluntary contributions and staffed by volunteers.


Directory of Accredited Laboratories

Asbestos Fiber Analysis (PLM Test Method)

The purpose of the Bulk Asbestos Program is to accredit testing laboratories to assure that they are competent to analyze bulk samples for asbestos using polarized light microscopy (PLM).

Public Law 99-519, 'Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act of 1986,' referred to as AHERA, requires that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (formerly the National Bureau of Standards) develop an accreditation program for laboratories conducting analyses of bulk samples of asbestos-containing material.

For more information, see NIST Handbook 150-3.


Listed below are all laboratories accredited within this program as of October 26, 2004. For additional information, contact NVLAP at (301) 975-4016.
