Asbestos licensing in Oklahoma
In Oklahoma, asbestos abatement contractors get their licenses from the Oklahoma Department of Labor rather than the environmental agency. A contractor's application includes an approved respirator program and an operations and maintenance program, and the department also licenses individuals who inspect for or abate asbestos. The department has a license verification tool on its site, so check the license on record there, and check the department's site for current requirements.
