M. m Pallu.xv aitdii. This document offers guidance on environmental concerns that need to be addressed prior to the demolition of a building. The environmental concerns include: asbestos, hazardous wastes, special hazardous wastes, underground storage tanks,wells, refrigerants/CFCs/HCFCs, fire extinguishers, and other concerns. This document also includes guidance on what kinds of waste can and cannot be accepted at a demolition landfill. Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM) is a special consideration in the demolition of old buildings. Through the 1970s asbestos was used in over 3000 different building materials. Some of the more _ common materials are: • pipe, duct, and boiler insulation (includes many different types of ACM) • ceiling tiles, textured spray, fireproofing, scratch coats or other treated areas • cement asbestos board: also known as Transite®, this material was used extensively as siding on homes, ceilings and walls in commercial buildings, and any area where heat or moisture is present. ♦ vinyl asbestos floor tile, old linoleum, and other resilient floor coverings ACM can be found almost anywhere and a thorough inspection for ACM must be performed prior to any demolition. The MPCA Air Quality Division Asbestos Team maintains a list of companies that can perform this service for you. You can reach the Asbestos Team at the phone number below. -- In a demolition a notification form must be filled out and sent to the MPCA Asbestos Team ten working days before any demolition is started whether the building contains ACM or not. If you don't have this form, contact the Asbestos Team. The Notification form for a demolition contains specific information on the dates of demolition and on the different types of ACM and conditions for how the ACM needs to be handled if ACM is present. If any of the demolition materials are to be recycled it is necessary to remove any ACM that may be present. The recycling process could result in previously resilient ACM becoming crushed, crumbled, or reduced to a powder. If the ACM is not removed prior to demolition then the building materials containing, mixed in with, or coated with ACM may not be used for recycle. 1
