Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton | Disaster Debris Management Plan | 2022 <br />38 <br /> <br /> <br />If the building material and debris are not completely destroyed and require further demolition, it <br />may be subject to the Asbestos NESHAP. <br /> <br />At a minimum, the following best management practices should be used for undertaking debris <br />removal activities: <br /> <br /> California DOSH CAC will be utilized to assess the area or each residential or commercial <br />property for easily identifiable and removable pieces of ACM. After assessing each property <br />or area, the CAC will consult with a licensed asbestos removal contractor to identify the <br />location and area of ACM to be removed. <br /> A Cal/OSHA registered Asbestos Removal Contractor will be responsible for overseeing the <br />safe removal of ACM identified on-site by the CAC. <br /> All on-site personnel working to remove ACM must have received the necessary health and <br />safety training for conducting asbestos removal activities pursuant to OSHA 1910.100, and <br />CCR Title 8, Section 5192, and will be required to wear Level C PPE when working in the <br />exclusion zone. <br /> As noted in Sub-Section a. Health and Safety (above), all on-site cleanup personnel must <br />be 40-hour HAZWOPER trained Under 29 CFR 1910.120, and CCR Title 8, Section 5192. <br /> The affected disaster or incident area (commercial, residential, or rural properties) will be <br />screened by a CAC to identify all gross ACM that can be easily removed from the ground or <br />structure prior to debris removal activities. <br /> Request an asbestos consultation from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District <br />(BAAQMD) for any structure that is not completely destroyed or for any structure with <br />vermiculite insulation, for large ― facility components or material that will be broken up upon <br />movement, or for other asbestos issues as identified by the CAC. Note: Current field definition <br />of “destroyed” means the structure does not have a roof or any load-bearing walls. <br /> During asbestos screening process, it is recommended that bulk samples be collected from <br />10 to 20 percent of the representative structures that have not been destroyed to determine <br />the presence of ACM above NESHAP regulations, and to ensure residual building materials <br />do not contain asbestos that may change the overall waste classification. <br /> All gross ACM that can be safely and easily removed from the site will be adequately wetted <br />prior to being bagged or burrito wrapped to meet the NESHAP leak-tight requirement for <br />removal. The easily identifiable gross ACM can be double-bagged and appropriately labeled <br />as ACM. (At a minimum the plastic bags must be of at least 6-mil thickness, and the contents <br />must remain wet.) <br /> If bulk loading of ACM is utilized, the bin or container used for transport (e.g., end-dump trailer <br />or roll-off box) shall be double-lined with 10-mil ploy in such a way that once loaded both <br />layers can be sealed up independently. <br /> Conduct on-site and off-site air monitoring and sampling for asbestos and heavy metals <br />during all ACM and debris removal operations to demonstrate the effectiveness of <br />engineering controls to protect cleanup personnel and the surrounding community. <br /> Engineering controls must be utilized to maintain dust and fiber control during removal <br />activities. A water fog must be used during debris handling, bulking/bagging, and waste <br />loading operations. It is recommended that cleanup contractors will use fire grade firefighting <br />nozzles with shut off valves for dust control. The fire nozzle shall have sufficient water
