ExploreAbout this exam
The New Mexico Asbestos Abatement credential sits within the state's Asbestos Control Program, which is administered by the Occupational Health and Safety Bureau of the New Mexico Environment Department. Candidates typically encounter this credential when they need state recognition to perform or supervise asbestos-related work on projects in New Mexico, and the licensing and certification page is the entry point for application information. This study page is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the New Mexico Environment Department or any state agency. The official licensing and certification page at env.nm.gov returned a 404 Not Found error when retrieved on 2026-11-07, so no exam format, question count, time limit, passing score, fee, retake policy, or validity period could be verified from the source. The single published domain, Asbestos Abatement Licensing and Certification, is therefore unweighted and unverified. No official source text supports specific preparation guidance, so treat any study plan as provisional until you confirm current requirements directly with the Occupational Health and Safety Bureau. The department's published contact numbers are 505-827-2855 and 1-800-219-6157, and its address is the Harold L. Runnels Building, 1190 St. Francis Drive, Suite N4050, Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505. Verify all exam details with the agency before scheduling.
What you'll study
About NM Asbestos Abatement preparation
Is this study page officially connected to the New Mexico Environment Department?
No. This is independent study material. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the New Mexico Environment Department, the Occupational Health and Safety Bureau, or any state agency. Always confirm licensing and exam requirements through official department channels before you apply or schedule.
What does the asbestos licensing and certification exam cover?
The permitted source does not state exam content. The exam profile lists one unverified domain, Asbestos Abatement Licensing and Certification, but no topic outline, weighting, or task list was retrievable. Do not assume coverage from other states' programs; confirm the current content outline with the Occupational Health and Safety Bureau.
How many questions are on the exam and how long is it?
Unknown from the available source. The official licensing and certification page returned a 404 error on 2026-11-07, so question count, time limit, and format are all unverified. Contact the department at 505-827-2855 or 1-800-219-6157 to obtain current exam specifications before planning your study schedule.
What score do I need to pass, and what happens if I fail?
Neither the passing score nor the retake policy could be verified, because the source page was unavailable. Treat any passing percentage or waiting period you see elsewhere as unconfirmed. Ask the Occupational Health and Safety Bureau directly about the passing standard, retake limits, waiting periods, and any associated fees before you sit for the exam.
How much does the certification cost and how long is it valid?
Unverified. The source text contains no fee schedule and no validity period for any asbestos license or certification. Because fees and renewal cycles change, obtain the current amounts and term lengths in writing from the department rather than relying on older figures or another state's schedule.
How should I order my study if I cannot confirm the exam outline?
Start with the regulatory framework: know which agency administers the program and how to reach it. Then build general asbestos abatement knowledge, since the only listed domain is licensing and certification. Keep your notes tied to verifiable sources, and revise your plan once the department supplies the official content outline and any required training hours.
What are the most common preparation mistakes for this kind of exam?
Relying on another state's requirements, memorizing fee or renewal figures that may be outdated, and assuming a content outline that was never confirmed. Because this exam profile is flagged for review, verify every administrative detail with the agency and focus study time on concepts you can trace to a current official document.
How do I contact the agency that administers the program?
The New Mexico Environment Department lists phone numbers 505-827-2855 and 1-800-219-6157, with a 24-hour environmental emergencies line at 505-827-9329. Its address is the Harold L. Runnels Building, 1190 St. Francis Drive, Suite N4050, Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505. Use these to request current licensing and exam information.
Why does this page say the information needs review?
The cited official page returned an HTTP 404 error on 2026-11-07 and displayed a page-not-found message, so no licensing, certification, exam, fee, or domain details could be sourced. Every profile value is therefore unverified and marked for review. Expect this page to be updated once official documentation is available.
