(2) Contractors working on asbestos abatement projects at secure facilities must ensure that all security clearance requirements are completed before asbestos abatement projects at secure facilities start so that DEQ inspectors may gain immediate access to perform required asbestos project inspections.

(3) A person may not sand, grind, saw, or abrade asbestos-containing material unless during such activity the material is handled and disposed of as friable asbestos material as this division provides.

(4) The content of asbestos in asbestos-containing material must be determined using the method specified by the Environmental Protection Agency as listed in EPA/600/R-93/116, July 1993, "Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials" or another substantially similar method approved by DEQ.
