Pre-Abatement Activities The regulated area and worker protection requirements were met. Local area protection consisted of: Danger signs at all access points. A drop sheet extending 6 to 10 feet beyond the work area. Shutting off or sealing off HVAC vents in the work area. II. Abatement Activities Workers donned protective suits and respirators. Existing dust and debris was pre-cleaned from the work area. An inspection was made to assess the integrity of the glove bag(s). The asbestos-containing material was saturated with amended water, removed and placed into the bottom of the glove bag. The substrate was cleaned of all residue. After rinsing all debris to the bottom of the glove bag and removing the tools, the glove bag was deflated with a HEPA-filtered vacuum, twisted near the top and taped to contain the debris in the bottom. The bag was then cut down and placed directly into a labeled disposal bag. All protective barriers were removed and proper decontamination procedures were followed. The workers suits and the drop sheet were also put into the disposal bag. III. Decontamination & Disposal A final inspection was conducted of the glovebag location(s) on August 6, 2012, by John Depew. All surfaces were checked to ensure that no dust and/or debris remained. One (1) bag of containerized debris to include drop cloths, disposable suits, etc. was decontaminated, removed from the work area and stored in a locked storage area. IV. Project Closeout After the material was removed, the glovebag operation was complete if the work area passed visual inspection. All equipment and materials were removed from the area. ` IEA, Inc.
