ABOUT US - History

Formed in 1989 as the SC National Asbestos Council by a group of dedicated individuals striving to provide information to everyone about asbestos and the regulations surrounding it. As the group grew, it became clear that other environmental concerns needed to be addressed like lead based paint, indoor air quality, underground storage tank and hazardous waste issues. The group adopted the national organization name change to Environmental Information Association. You can find out more about the national association at www.eia-usa.org
