Disclaimer The asbestos regulations are very complex. Each scenario is individually unique. Each inspection is based on a case by case scenario.
Overview Other Construction Rules Other Occ. Health StandardsAsbestos - General Industry (Part 305) Asbestos - Construction (Part 602) Public Act 135 – Asbestos Abatement Contractors Licensing Act Public Act 440 – Asbestos Worker Accreditation Act
Common MIOSHA Construction Safety RulesPart 1 – General Rules Part 6 – Personal Protective Equipment Part 11 – Ladders Part 20 – Demolition Part 45 – Fall Protection
Common Occupational Health RulesPart 309 – Cadmium Paint Disturbance Part 430 – Hazard Communication (Global Harmonized System) Part 451 – Respiratory Protection All aspects Part 601 – Air Contaminants for Construction Part 603 – Lead in Construction
General Industry Asbestos RegulationsApplies more to the Facility / Property Owner than the Abatement Contractor Schools / Factories / Commercial Buildings Asbestos Survey Informing custodial staff, custodial employers of the Asbestos Survey Labeling Jurisdiction - Homeowners
General Industry Asbestos RegulationsAir Monitoring – Appendix A (Later) Air Monitoring only – GI work
Part 602 – Asbestos in ConstructionStandard Scope :
Responsibilities for all Employers
Responsibilities for General ContractorA General Contractor cannot absolve themselves of asbestos hazards on the site. Overall authority over the jobsite Typical scenarios for asbestos Have the asbestos abatement work completely separate from the other “regular” construction activities
General Contractor – (d)(5)
Abatement Work under 602
Regulated Area Asbestos Tape – RedNote* = Change in 2015/2016 for signage
Competent Person Must be up-to-date on Contractor/Supervisor Training and Licensing (PA 440)
Competent Person - Continued
Air Monitoring Negative Exposure Assessment Initial DeterminationMust be “apples to apples” Closely resembling Initial Determination 8-hour samples and 30-minute samples are required
Classes of Asbestos Work
Class I Work Thermal System Insulation Plaster – Skim and/or BaseFireproofing
Typical Items to be asked for during a Class I MIOSHA InspectionManometric Pressure Readings – NPE Manometer Smoke Tubes – Glove Bags HEPA Vacuum – Glove Box Water Spray Process System – Special Training License 6 Mil plastic – HVAC jobs
Class II Work Floor Tile* Roofing Materials*Siding / Shingles / Transite Panels Gaskets * Settlement Agreements with OSHA
Typical Items to be asked for during a Class II MIOSHA InspectionFloor Tile* Manometric Readings/ Manometer for Mechanical Chipping Roofing Materials* How was it done? * Settlement Agreements with OSHA
Class III Work Mini Enclosure 60” x 60” glove bag See Class I Work
Other Work (g)(11) Asphaltic Pipelines Roof FlashingThese have specific rules contained in the Roofing Industry Settlement with OSHA
Part 451- Respiratory Protection Program
Respiratory ProtectionAn Assigned Protection Factor cannot be established unless the following have been established; 1. Fit Test 2. Medical Evaluation 3. Written Program 4. Training 5. Maintenance 6. Use Requirements
Protective Clothing Protective clothing Tyvek Spun BoundPaper Undergarments Class I – No street clothes on underneath Laundering
Decontamination – Class IEquipment Room Shower Room Hot and Cold Water from a common stream Clean Room Very Rare – Remote Decon There is no “It’s below freezing” rule!
Decontamination - ContinuedRequirements for Class I work involving less than 25 linear or 10 square feet of TSI or surfacing ACM and PACM, and for Class II and Class III asbestos work operations where exposures exceed a PEL or where there is no negative exposure assessment produced before the operation. Plastic dropcloth beneath HEPA Vacuum
Do I need an asbestos survey?Yes. The facility / property owner or employer must conduct an asbestos survey. Can I claim everything as asbestos? Yes! But, it must be in writing!
How can I rebut a material?
Proper Laboratories for RebuttalSample collection by an accredited inspector or a CIH Sample must be submitted to: NVLAP NIST Round Robin for Bulk Samples (AIHA) Or an equivalent recognized round robin testing facility Must follow EPA AHERA – 40 CFR criteria for number of samples
Training Make Sure all employees are up-to-date on their annual license and training requirement.
Medical Surveillance Maintain your paperwork through the medical provider or the company!
