NATURALLY OCCURRING ASBESTOS
While the NOA Guide was developed for use by people living in NSW, the practices the Guide recommends in establishing and maintaining a NOA Asbestos Management Plan may also be appropriate for use in any community where NOA has been identified or is suspected. Generic versions of the Naturally Occurring Asbestos – Asbestos Management Plan Guide and templates were created for reference by people living and working in states other than NSW. If you live in a state or territory other than NSW, contact your regulator to ensure NOA is managed in accordance with regulations.

NATURALLY OCCURRING ASBESTOS – ASBESTOS MANAGEMENT PLAN GUIDEThe Naturally Occurring Asbestos – Asbestos Management Plan Guide explains the reasons why it’s important to manage NOA safely, when and where NOA may pose a potential health risk, who to contact for advice, and the steps required to manage NOA safely in accordance with NSW Work, Health and Safety Regulations 2017 and the Codes of Practice for asbestos management. User-friendly templates have been developed to assist people in developing and managing an Asbestos Management Plan. All templates are available in 2 formats.
