Demolition Projects.
(a) The operator shall

ordered to be demolished by a government official because it is found to be
structurally unsound and in danger of imminent collapse or a public health
hazard, the operator shall submit a demolition project notification form, with
a copy of the order signed by the appropriate government official, as soon as
possible before, but no later than, the next working day after the demolition
project begins.

(a) If the amount of RACM that would be
disturbed or rendered inaccessible by the asbestos abatement or renovation
project is the SSSD amount, then no additional requirements are necessary prior
to general building remodeling activities.
(b) If the amount of RACM that would be
disturbed or rendered inaccessible by the asbestos abatement or renovation
project is greater than the SSSD amount, but less than the NESHAP amount, then
the operator shall:
(i) Submit an asbestos
abatement project notification form at least one working day before asbestos

before performing general building remodeling activities.
(c) If the amount of RACM that would be
disturbed or rendered inaccessible by the asbestos abatement project is greater
than or equal to the NESHAP amount, then the operator shall:
(i) Submit an asbestos abatement project
notification form along with payment of the appropriate fee at least ten
working days before asbestos removal begins as described in
R307-801-12;

than ten working days before the first day of January of the year during which
the work is to be performed in the following circumstances:
(i) The asbestos abatement projects are
unplanned operation and maintenance activities;
(ii) The asbestos abatement projects are less
than NESHAP-sized; and
(iii) The
total amount of asbestos to be disturbed in a single NESHAP facility during
these asbestos abatement projects is expected to exceed the NESHAP amount in a
calendar year.
(3) Owners and operators of general building
remodeling activities are not required to submit an asbestos abatement project
or renovation notification form to the director that do not disturb suspect
asbestos containing materials, do not disturb building materials found to
contain RACM by an inspector who is certified according to
R307-801-6,
or do not disturb materials that will become RACM as part of the general
building remodeling activities.
(4) For notification purposes, asbestos
abatement, renovation, or demolition projects shall be no longer than one year
