Two clips from the November 2 issue of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL - They relate to an asbestos-related court decision and a company's filing for protection under Chapter 11 of-;*'; the federal Bankruptcy Code due to' number of asbestos-related damage suits. 2. Two articles from July/August and October issues of CONTRACTORS GUIDE - It was considered that the article by Terrence M. Quinn merited a response because it contained some inaccurate and misleading information. AIA/NA's letter,, along with Mr. Quinn's response, appear in the October issue. 3. Article from October issue of The Construction Specifier magazine - This article by Les Stanwood covers a number of areas relating to asbestos with particular emphasis on re moval operations. AIA/NA provided Mr. Stanwood with a number of materials and is mentioned as a source of information in the article. B. J.

The two most basic documents are listed in the refer ences. In addition to these the As sociation of the Wall and Ceiling Industries--International (AWCI) has, for the last two years, offered comprehensive seminars on asbes tos removal. (Call (202) 783-AWQ for the most recent schedule of classes.) The EPA suggests four basic stra tegies for handling asbestos control: 1. Leave it alone, 2. Erect a barrier, 3. Encapsulate, or 4. Remove. Leave it alone The first step in approaching problem asbestos is to ensure, through competent analysis, that the product in question does in deed "contain asbestos. Not all fri able insulation or ceiling material does. Subsequently, a deter mination of the danger posed has to be made. Removal of asbestos, in many cases, releases far more fibers into the atmosphere than would be released over the 100-year life of a building. Thus, there is ample reason to question the cause of interfering with the product in the absence of evidence of airborne fibers. Erect a barrier In many instances a barrier can be put over a decomposing ceiling or an area which contains friable asbestos. Suspended ceilings or new ceilings laid over the friable asbestos material can effectively protect building occupants from the fibers, but only if the seals are complete. Unfortunately, the use of barriers to control flaking ceiling tiles or blown insulation has a poor track record; contractors are often called back in a few years later to remove the product altogether, and at greater expense. Cl Two photos show workmen preparing area for asbestos removal by covering and sealing it off with plastic. . 7H THE COXSTKIK.TIOX SI'LCIFIKK/OCTOIIEK I i CAP CO JEN 0012885 Encapsulate Friable asbestos can be sprayed with certain chemicals and thus be transformed into bound asbestos materials. Such application'is far cheaper than removal, and more effective, in many-cases, than isolation. The EPA has commissioned a study of acceptable encapsulants. Their criteria Included: flame re* sistance, strength, long life, resist ance to vandalism and, of course, efficacy at reducing fiber slough ing. Battelle Columbus Labor atories, under contract from the EPA, tested 100 commercial en capsulants for friable asbestos. The Battelle test--which the EPA does not endorse or reject--found 11 products acceptable without qual ification. Another 23 were labeled "marginally acceptable." The acceptable products were: A New Filtering Device Preventing loose asbestos particles from escaping into the air is one of the most difficult, yet important, chal lenges to the asbestos removal con tractor. Precautions must be taken to protect workers, as well as future in habitants of the building, from the dangers of inhaled or ingested asbes tos. Mateson Chemical Corp. of Phil adelphia offers one solution to this problem, with the introduction of Sterilaire* AFD-3000, a HEPA-type, particulate, super air processor for as bestos removal operations. - Clean Air Technology, manu facturer of the system, claims that Ster ilaire is rated at 3000 CFM, providing 99.97 percent removal of 0.3 micro* meter microns, the minimal size. Each unit has a multiple-stage air filter system end comes in a two- section separable cabinet assembly, each section on casters. ' Both filter divisions are monitored by light and audio overload signals, designed to prevent overload or filter failures, which could contaminate the clean airside of the unit. Each unit consists of two inter locking modules: anintake blowerand control module, and a filter, and exhaust module. According to the manufacturer, the unit is rated at 39.99 percent efficiency.

Removal Complete removal is, of course, the only way to eliminate the prob lem of asbestos. Asbestos removal is very labor intensive, and there fore quite expensive: $5 a square foot and up. Two methods are used: wet and dry. Wet removal is the preferred method, because it usually pro duces far lower fiber counts during removal. The basic' method is simple, if expensive. First, the area is protected with plastic barriers. Then workers spray the asbestos surface with water and a wetting solution. The moistened material is then carefully brought off the walls or ceilings and put into heavy plas tic bags. These are disposed of at suitable hazardous waste dumping sites. During removal workers gen erally wear respirators. They are also usually asked to enter the worksite through an airlock, show ering and changing clothing each time they enter or go out.

Dale Shinman of Ver tecs Is the man responsible for these removal jobs. Some of the insights he has gained in three years of removing asbestos might be helpful to others. Shinman and Vertecs make these suggestions: approach the medical problems de riving from asbestos exposure seriously. Undertake a vigorous employee edu cation plan, and if any employee vio lates the rules--even once--fire him. use a portable air lock and chang ing unit set up in a trailer. Vertecs' unit has an air lockjoined to a shower which is tied into the removal job. specs often call for six mil. plastic to enclose the workspace, but Verted: uses two layers of two mil. and four mil. When the job is done the inner layer can be wrapped in the outer. be careful about rolling scaffolding over the plastic, as it can tear it A sec ond major problem: water damage. "It takes a while to judge bow much water is needed," says Shinman. "But it is always difficult to calculate--and bud get for--the amount of damage you might have." the tape used to put up plastic can be a problem. "If it sticks well enough to hold the plastic up, it often damages paint," Shinman says. - don't scrimp on disposable cloth ing or plastic bags for disposal: this is an important part of the project Vertecs Corporation, which special izes in insulation and acoustical treat ments. is at 12601132nd Ave. NE, Kirk land.
