Asbestos Abatement Regulations: Notifications Reports Plans Fees
Notifications, Reports, Plans, and Fees. For the purpose of determining whether there has been compliance with any reporting or filing requirement established in §§1-22 through 1-26, the size and scope of the overall project shall control, with particular reference to the total amount of friable asbestos-containing material which will be disturbed. Such requirements may not lawfully be avoided or lessened through the performance of work in incremental or piecemeal fashion.
When alternative calculations (i.e., linear feet and square feet) of the size and scope of an asbestos project result in that project coming within the definition of more than one sub-classification of asbestos project, the calculation with the higher absolute number shall determine the sub-classification of asbestos project procedures to be followed. For the purpose of §§1-21 through 1-26, the term "work" shall be understood as in the common construction usage, i.e. not specifically related to asbestos abatement activities.
