ASBESTOS ABATEMENT WORK STANDARDS - PROCEDURES FOR ASBESTOS EMISSION CONTROL
Each owner or operator of a demolition or renovation activity, according to paragraph (a), shall comply with the following procedures: 48. Remove all RACM from a facility being demolished or renovated before any activity begins that would break up, dislodge, or similarly disturb the material or preclude access to the material for subsequent removal. RACM need not be removed from demolition if:
YES NO N/A
48a. It is Category I nonfriable ACM that is not in poor condition and is not friable.
YES NO N/A
48b. It is on a facility component that is encased in concrete or other similarly hard material and is adequately wet whenever exposed during demolition
48c. It was not accessible for testing and was, therefore, not discovered until after demolition began and, as a result of the demolition, the material cannot be
YES NO N/A YES NO N/A

Page 8 of 16
safely removed. If not removed for safety reasons, the exposed RACM and any asbestos-contaminated debris must be treated as asbestos-containing waste material and adequately wet at all times until disposed of. 48d. They are Category II nonfriable ACM and the probability is low that the materials will become crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder during demolition 49. When a facility component that contains, is covered with, or is coated with RACM is being taken out of the facility as a unit or in sections:
49a. Adequately wet all RACM exposed during cutting or disjoining operations, and
49b. Carefully lower each unit or section to the floor and to ground level, not dropping, throwing, sliding, or otherwise damaging or disturbing the RACM
50. When RACM is stripped from a facility component while it remains in place in the facility, adequately wet the RACM during the stripping operation. In renovation operations, wetting is not required if:
50a, The owner or operator has obtained prior written approval from the Administrator based on a written application that wetting to comply would unavoidably damage equipment or present a safety hazard. The owner or operator uses of the following emission control methods:
A local exhaust ventilation and collection system designed and operated to 50b. capture the particulate asbestos material produced by the stripping and removal of
the asbestos materials. The system must exhibit no visible emissions to the outside air or be designed and operated in accordance with the requirements in 61.152. 50c. A glove-bag system designed and operated to contain the particulate asbestos material produced by the stripping of the asbestos materials.
50d. Leak-tight wrapping to contain all RACM prior to dismantlement.
In renovation operations where wetting would result in equipment damage or a safety hazard, and the methods allowed in paragraph (c)(3)(i) cannot be used, 51 another method may be used after obtaining written approval from the Administrator based upon a determination that it is equivalent to wetting in controlling emissions or to the methods allowed in paragraph (c)(3)(i). 51a A copy of the Administrator's written approval shall be kept at the worksite and made available for inspection. After a facility component covered with, coated with, or containing RACM has 52 been taken out of the facility as a unit or in sections pursuant to paragraph (c)(2), it shall be stripped or contained in leak-tight wrapping, except as described in paragraph (c)(5). If stripped, either:
52a. Adequately wet the RACM during stripping, or
Use a local exhaust ventilation and collection system designed and operated to 52b. capture the particulate asbestos material produced by the stripping. The system
must exhibit no visible emissions to the outside air or be designed and operated in accordance with the requirements in 61.152. For large facility components such as reactor vessels, large tanks, and steam 53. generators, but not beams (which must be handled in accordance with paragraphs (c)(2), (c)(3), and (c)(4), the RACM is not required to be stripped if the following requirements are met: 53a. The component is removed, transported, stored, disposed of, or reused without disturbing or damaging the RACM.

53c. The leak-tight wrapping is labeled according to 61.149(d)(1)(i), (d)(1)(ii), and (d)(1)(iii) during all loading and unloading operations and during storage.
54. For all RACM, including material that has been removed or stripped:
Adequately wet the material and ensure that it remains wet until collected 54a. and contained or treated in preparation for disposal in accordance with 61.150;
and 54b. Carefully lower the material to the ground and floor, not dropping, throwing,
sliding, or otherwise damaging or disturbing the material. Transport the material to the ground via leak-tight chutes or containers if it has 54c. been removed or stripped more than 50 feet above ground level and was not removed as units or in sections. 54d. RACM contained in leak-tight wrapping that has been removed in accordance with paragraphs (c)(4) and (c)(3)(i)(B)(3) need not be wetted.
55. When the temperature at the point of wetting is below 0 C (32 F):
55a. The owner or operator need not comply with paragraph (c)(2)(i) and the wetting provisions of paragraph (c)(3).
55b. The owner or operator shall remove facility components containing, coated with, or covered with RACM as units or in sections to the maximum extent possible. During periods when wetting operations are suspended due to freezing temperatures, the owner or operator must record the temperature in the area containing the facility components at the beginning, middle, and end of each workday and keep daily temperature records available for inspection by the
55c. Administrator during normal business hours at the demolition or renovation site.
The owner or operator shall retain the temperature records for at least 2 years.
No RACM shall be stripped, removed, or otherwise handled or disturbed at 56. a facility unless at least one on-site representative, such as a foreman or
management-level person or other authorized representative, trained in the provisions of this regulation and the means of complying with them, is present. Every 2 years, the trained on-site individual shall receive refresher training in the provisions of this regulation. The required training shall include as a minimum: applicability; notifications; material identification; control procedures for 56a. removals including, at least, wetting, local exhaust ventilation, negative pressure enclosures, glove-bag procedures, and High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters; waste disposal work practices; reporting and recordkeeping; and asbestos hazards and worker protection. 56b. Evidence that the required training has been completed shall be posted and made available for inspection by the Administrator at the demolition or renovation site. 57. For facilities described in paragraph (a)(3), adequately wet the portion of the facility that contains RACM during the wrecking operation. If a facility is demolished by intentional burning, all RACM including Category I 58. and Category II nonfriable ACM must be removed in accordance with the NESHAP before burning.

Mr. Joseph Greek confirmed he was the foreman working for Asbestos Central, and that Just Right Cleaning & Construction (JRCC) hired the company as a subcontractor. Mr. Greek was the asbestos abatement supervisor onsite and said he had ten workers at time of inspection. Copies of certifications provided after the inspection included two supervisors and seven workers, however Mr. Greek stated during the inspection that he had 10 individuals performing the abatement work, five employees upstairs and five downstairs.
Mr. Greek said that Mr. Justin Wood was the owner of the company. Mr. Greek stated the asbestos abatement job at Lake Roosevelt High School started on Monday, April 3, 2023, and confirmed the completion date to April 5, 2023. EPA was informed that the visual inspection was to be completed on the day of inspection. After the inspection the company would spray the encapsulate and air samples would be taken on Thursday, April 6, 2023.
Mr. Greek explained that the company was utilizing the airless sprayer to keep the asbestos moist while removing the asbestos. He said that the 24" grinding machine utilized to remove the vinyl flooring with mastic was attached to a water drip system. The water drip had to be calibrated to be just enough water but not too much water. The HEPA vacuum being used was a self bagging system. Mr. Greek stated he had three negative air downstairs, two running and one backup. In the workspace there are three air scrubbers that clean the air and move the air around.
The following information was also conveyed during the inspection:
The work practice requirement during the demolition and/or renovation of asbestos abatement. The certification requirements for supervisor and workers. The recordkeeping requirements for all asbestos abatement work. Retain a copy of all monitoring and inspection records for at least 2 years. The 10-day notification required prior to the asbestos abatement work starting.
SUMMARY OF OBSERVATIONS The following possible deviations from the requirements of 40 CFR Part 745 Subpart E were observed during this inspection/audit:
At time of inspection, EPA was informed there were 10 individuals performing the asbestos abatement. The certifications provided had two supervisors and seven workers. Three of the workers did not hold the LNI worker certification cards, because EPA was provided copies of the trainer certifications only.
The notification provided did not have the contact information for the building owner. The notification did not have the year built, the square footage or the number of floors of the building. There was no description of the planned demolition or renovation work and the methods to be used.
The notification did not have the correct amount of asbestos to be removed at time of inspection. The notification included 5,775 square feet, 1 Ebonite cuntertop, and 10 each hard mudded insulation on JETs to be removed. At time of inspection only 3,025 of square feet of ACM was to be removed, and the rest to be removed during the summer when students were out of school.
The start and completion date of the abatement job was not correct on the notification. During the inspection, EPA was informed that the abatement job started April 3, 2023 and was to be completed on April 5, 2023, but the notification had the start date as March 27, 2023 and completion on April 14, 2023.
During the inspection, two EPA inspectors entered the containment area established by Asbestos Central. Approximate time of entry into the containment was 3:29 p.m. and exiting the containment area was about 3:45 p.m. While walking through the containment area, the inspectors located issues with the containment such as small holes in the critical barriers and places where critical barriers had detached from the floor. Mr. Greek said that the holes were probably made by the hot muffler from the grinder coming into contact with the plastic.
