OSJfA anticipates that employers In the electrical carpentry, utility, plumbing, and interior construction trade* enuy wish to avail themselves of the final standard** exemptions for email-scale. short-duration renovation and maintenance operations. Definition ofSmoil-S<alr.. Shart-Uttoalion A(.fi\itin For the purposes of this appendix, email* acate. short-duration renovation and maintenance activities arc tasks soch os. but not limited to: Removal ot asbestoe-oontulninp insulation on pipes: Removal of small quantities of asbeitCMcontaining insulation on beams or above ceilingi: Replacement of an k*be*lo*-oolaining gasket on a valve: Installation or removal of a small section of drywatl: Installation of electrical conduits through or proximate lo aibestos-containing materials. Evidence in the record (tee the Summary and Explanation section of the preamble for paragraph (g). Methods of Compliance, for specific citations) suggests that the ute of certain engineering and work practice control* is capable of reducing employee exposures to asbestos to levels below the final standard's action level |0.1 f/ccj. Several controls and work practice*, used either singly or in combination, can be employed effectively to reduce asbestos exposures during small maintenance and renovation operations. These include: Wet methods: Removal methods -- Use of Clmxs bags --Rrmo'til of entire asbestos insulated pipes or aJrucJures -- (lee of mini-enclosures * Fncloaure of asbestos materials: and Maintenance program*. This appendix describes these controls and work practices In detail. Preparation of (he Area Before Renovation or Afom/eno/ico Activities The first otep In preparing lo perform a snvull-ceale. short-duration asbestos renovation or maintenance task, regardless of (he abatement method that will be used. Is (he removal from the work Area of all objects (hat are movable lo protect them from asbestos contamination. Object* that cannot be removed must be covered completely with a 6-mil-thlck polyethylene plastic sheeting before the task begins. Lf objects have already been contaminated, they should be thoroughly cleaned with a High Efficiency Particulate Air (1EEPAJ filtered vacuum or be wet wiped before (hey are removed from the work area or completely encased In the p La sUc. Wet Methods j Whenever feasible, and regardless of the abatement method lo be used (c,g-. removal, enclosure, uae of jiovo bags}, wet methods must be used during small-scale, short duration maintenance ervd renovation activities that involve disturbing asbestoscontaining materials. Handling asbestos materials wot is one of the most reliable methods qf.cnauring that asbestos fibers do not become oirbooc: and this practice should therefore bo used whenever feasible. As discussed in the Summary end Explanation sedlon of the preamble for paragraph (g). Method* of Compliance, ivel methods can be used in the great majority of workplace situation*. Only In cases where asbestos work must be performed on live electrical equipment, on live steam lines, or In other areas where water will seriously damage materials or equipment may dry removal be performed. Amended water or another wetting agent should be applied by means of an airless sprayer lo minimite the extent lo which the asbestos-containing msteria! is di sturbed. Asbestos-containing materials should be wetted from the Initiation of the maintenance or renovotion operation and wclllrv- agents should be used continually throughout the work period lo ensure (hot any dry asbestos* containing material exposed In the course of the work i# wet end remolna Wet unlit final disposal Removal of Small Amount of AsbestosContaining Materials Several methods can bo uoed to remove small nraoantn of a&bestocenlalnlng materials during small-ccale, ahorl-durallon renovation or maintenance tanka. These Indude lha use of glove bags, the removal of on entire aabeatoe-covered pipe or structure, and the construction of mini-enclosures. The ;* xxsedures that employers must use for each of these operations If they wish to avail IhemaeJves of the firul rule's exemptions ore described In tho following sections.

Clove Bag Installation. Clove bags are approximately J4nch-wldc times 64-Inch- long bag* fitted with,arms through which the work can be `performed (see Figure C-l(A)). When properly installed and used, they permit workers to remain completely Isolated from the asbestos material removed or replaced inside the bag. Clove bags can thus provide a flcxlbile. easily Installed, and quickly dismantled temporary small work area enclosure that 1# ideal for small-scale asbestos rtnovatlon or maintenance jobs.
