Respiratory protection is required where a "negative exposure assessmenf has not been produced (and documented) for all class III work Respiratory protection is required where TSI or surfacing ACM is being disturbed Provide an equipment room or area adjacent to the work area if the work is in a reaulated area, or involves TSI or surfacing ACM Respiratory protection and dean-up facilities are required if cleaning up in a "reaulated area" at the same level of Drotection reauired for the Class 1. II or III workers Provide decontamination area if work involves the cleaning up of TSI or surfacing ACM. The area is as specified for Class III work Respiratory protection is required if roofing materials will not remain intact, or if materials will not be removed wet or in a quantity greater than one glovebag will be removed, regardless of work procedure. If non-wet methods are used on sloped roofs, respirators need not be worn when a negative exposure assessment has been made and the ACM is removed in an intact state. Respiratory protection is required if work practice controls are not feasible (or for the interval until they are feasible), if the PEL is exceeded, or during emergency asbestos fiber release episodes.
