Asbestos Control Measures
Control Measures Regardless of Exposure Levels
For all work operations, use the following engineering controls and work practices for all operations, regardless of exposure levels:
- Use vacuum cleaners equipped with HEPA filters to collect all asbestos-containing or presumed asbestos-containing debris and dust.
- Use wet methods or wetting agents to control employee exposures, except when wetting methods would cause electrical hazards, equipment malfunction, slipping hazards, or other hazards.
- Deactivate electrical circuits, if not provided with ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCI).
- Promptly clean up and dispose of asbestos-contaminated waste and debris in leak-tight containers.
