Struggling with my homework as usual. Please help.

What are some materials which could be disturbed during electrical installation work and if disposed of incorrectly could be hazardous to the environment? I already have asbestos. Thanks.

:confused5: Rohan.
 
managers having a kip, plumbers, wood butchers, the list is endless.
 
How about fibreglass insulation and styrofoam insulation or polystyrene or whatever you call it. How about lead from old cabling maybe?
 
I'd also say rat ----, bat ---- and cat ---- could be hazardous if working in roofs and ceilings.
