Thereafter, during the removal process, provide the following air monitoring:<br />

MINIMUM NUMBER EACH SAMPLE<br />

AREA TO BE OF SAMPLES FOR MINIMUM VOLUME<br />

SAMPLED EACH WORKDAY LITERS<br />

Work Area 2 600L<br />

Outside Work Area 2 3,000L<br />

Outside Building, at<br />

Exhaust Opening 1 3,000L<br />

Personal air monitoring shall be continuous on one removal workman during each<br />

shift. If monitoring outside the asbestos control area shows airborne<br />

concentrations have reached the specified TWA, stop all work in the effected area<br />

(leaving negative air machines in operation), correct the conditions causing the<br />

increase, <strong>and</strong> notify the Contracting Officer.<br />

D. Monitoring Results: PCM fiber counting shall be completed <strong>and</strong> results made<br />

available to the Contractor within 16 hours. Notify the Contractor <strong>and</strong> the<br />

Contracting Officer immediately of any exposures to asbestos fibers in excess of<br />

the acceptable limits. Submit written reports of all monitoring results to the<br />

Contracting Officer within 3 working days.<br />

E. Local Exhaust System: Pressure differential recordings for each work day shall be<br />

reviewed by the laboratory <strong>and</strong> submitted to the Contracting Officer within 24 hours<br />

from the end of each work day. The laboratory shall notify the Contractor <strong>and</strong> the<br />

Contracting Officer immediately of any variance in the pressure differential which<br />

could cause exposure of adjacent unsealed areas to asbestos fiber concentrations<br />

in excess of the TWA.<br />

4.3 WORK AREA CLEARANCE<br />

A. General<br />

1. This section sets forth required post-abatement airborne asbestos<br />

concentrations in the Work Area <strong>and</strong> describes testing procedures to measure<br />

these levels.<br />

2. The Asbestos Abatement Work Area is Cleared when the Work area is<br />

visually clean <strong>and</strong> airborne asbestos structure concentrations have been<br />

reduced to the level specified below.<br />

3. Work of this paragraph will not begin until the visual inspection is complete<br />

<strong>and</strong> has been certified by the Project Designer.<br />

B. Air Monitoring<br />

1. To determine if the elevated airborne asbestos structure concentration<br />

encountered during abatement operations has been reduced to the specified<br />

level, the Contractor will secure samples <strong>and</strong> analyze them according to the<br />

following procedures.<br />
