Following numerous environmental and health criticisms, the Trump administration fell back. There will ultimately be no revision on the ban on chrysotile asbestos, a measure dating from the presidency Biden.


Posted at 4:37 p.m.

Chrysotile asbestos, a carcinogenic product, is the most exploited and most used type of asbestos in the world. Asbestos in all its forms is prohibited in more than 50 countries, including Canada.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) intended to review this ban, but fell back, announcing that it has “reconsidered” its decision.

This choice is widely influenced by public outings of environmentalist and public health groups, such as Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization.

In March 2024, the Democratic Administration of Joe Biden had finalized a ban on “the use, manufacture and import” of chrysotile asbestos, the last type of asbestos still used in the United States. It was a first since 1989 for the United States government, as for the restriction of this substance.
