and in subpart A of thi3 part. Active waste disposal site means any
disposal site other than an inactive site.
Adequately wet means sufficiently mix or penetrate with liquid to prevent the release of particulates. If visible
emissions are observed coming from as
bestos-containing material, then that material has not been adequately wet ted. However, the absence of visible emissions is not sufficient evidence of
being adequately wet. Asbestos means the asbestiform vari
eties of serpentinite (chrysotile), rie-
beckite (crocidolite). cummingtonitefrunerite, anthophyllite, and actino-

Commercial asbestos means any mate rial containing asbestos that is ex tracted from ore and has value because
of its asbestos content. Cutting means to penetrate with a
sharp-edged instrument and includes sawing, but does not include shearing,
slicing, or punching. Demolition means the wrecking or
taking out of any load-supporting structural member of a facility to gether with any related handling oper ations or the intentional burning of
any facility. Emergency renovation operation means
a renovation operation that was not planned hut results from a sudden, un expected event that, if not inune-

necessary to avoid imposing an unrea sonable financial burden. This term in
cludes operations necessitated by nonroutine failures of equipment.
Fabricating means any processing (e.g., cutting, sawing, drilling) of a manufactured product that contains
commercial asbestos, with the excep tion of processing at temporary sites
(field fabricating) for the construction or restoration of facilities. In the case of friction products, fabricating in cludes bonding, debonding, grinding, sawing, drilling, or other similar oper ations performed as part of fabricating.
Facility means any institutional, commercial, public, industrial, or resi dential structure, installation, or
building (including any structure, in stallation. or building containing con dominiums or individual dwelling units operated as a residential cooperative, but excluding residential buildings having four or fewer dwelling units): any ship; and any active or inactive waste disposal site. For purposes of this definition, any building, structure, or installation that contains a loft used as a dwelling is not considered a residential structure, installation, or building. Any structure, installation or
building that was previously subject to this subpart is not excluded, regardless
of its current use or function. Facility component means any part of
a facility including equipment.
Friable asbestos material means any material containing more than 1 per cent asbestos as determined using the method specified in appendix A. sub part F. 40 CFR part 763 section 1, Polar
ized Light Microscopy, that, when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. If the as bestos content is less than 10 percent
as determined by a method other than point counting by polarized light mi croscopy (PLM), verify the asbestos content by point counting using PLM.
Fugitive source means any source of
emissions not controlled by an air pol lution control device.
Glove bag means a sealed compart ment with attached inner gloves used for the handling of asbestos-containing
materials. Properly installed and used.
glove bags provide a small work a
enclosure typically used for small-sc
asbestos stripping operations. Inforr. tion on glove-bag installation, equ meat and supplies, and work practf. is contained in the Occupational Saf<

Inactive waste disposal site means a disposal site or portion of it where z ditional asbestos-containing waste ir terial has not been deposited with the past year.
Installation means any building
structure or any group of buildings structures at a single demolition renovation site that are under the co trol of the same owner or operator ( owner or operator under common co trol).
Leak-tight means that solids or Ji uids cannot escape or spill out. It al. means dust-tight.
Malfunction means any sudden a: unavoidable failure of air pollutic control equipment or process equf ment or of a process to operate in normal or usual manner so that enu sions of asbestos are increased. Fa ures of equipment shall not be consi ered malfunctions if they are caused any way by poor maintenance, carele operation, or any other preventab upset conditions, equipment breai.
down, or process failure. Manufacturing means the combinic
of commercial asbestos--or. in the cas of woven friction products, the combit ing of textiles containing commercia asbestos--with any other maceriaKs
including commercial asbestos, and th processing of this combination into . product. Chlorine production is consid
ered a part of manufacturing. Natural barrier means a natural ob
ject that effectively precludes or deter
access. Natural barriers include phy* ical obstacles such as cliffs, lakes o: other large bodies of water, deep anc wide ravines, and mountains. Remote
