LDEQ Protocol to Comply with the LESHAP Regulations
The purpose of this protocol was to provide guidance for compliance with the standards for the demolition and renovation activities pursuant to the Louisiana Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (LESHAP) for asbestos (LAC 33:III.Chapter 51.Subchapter M) and
included:
Guidance on the EPA No Action Assurance Letters (NAA)
(Environmentally Unsound) Determined regulated vs. non-regulated LESHAP structures
(Sound vs. Unsound) Guidance for demolition activities including best management
practices
(wetting, controlled demolitions, site security and air monitoring) Demolition or Renovation Notification Requirements (AAC-2) Requirements of a “Thorough Inspection” (5/5/2006)
LDEQ Protocol to Comply with the LESHAP Regulations
Also included are:
Disposal of Waste Streams resulting from inspections and demolition activities (Type 1, 2 or 3 landfills)
Handling of Debris and Waste Materials from Renovation or Demolition Activities
Louisiana Katrina/Rita NESHAP Matrix (5/25/06)
Options: RACM Abatement [Type 1 or 2]; [Remaining C&D] Category 1 may to be left in the structure during demo [C&D]; Demo on Unsound structures -RACM [Type 1 or 2];
LDEQ Thorough Inspection Protocol
– Asbestos Inspector Accredited by LDEQ is Required– All suspect Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) is sampled and
samples are analyzed by LELAP accredited laboratory, utilizing Polarized Light Microscopy
– The number of samples taken shall be in accordance with the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA)
– Partial Inspection to the extent possible
Suspect Regulated ACM consists of:– 1- Friable material – 2- Category I nonfriable ACM that has become friable; – 3- Category I nonfriable ACM that will be or has become friable– 4- Category II nonfriable ACM that has a high probability of becoming
or has become crumbled
Partial - If determined to be homogeneous and no other RACM is identified, the remainder of the structure will be determined to be C&D debris. However, if the inspector determines that the materials in the unstable/inaccessible portion of the structure are not homogeneous or that RACM is present, the unstable/inaccessible portion of the structure will be demolished and disposed as RACM.
Addendum to Asbestos Disposal Verification Form (ADVF) Procedure for
Residential ACWM Procedure: One ADVF per Contractor, per landfill, per day. (Must be in
the same per parish)
The first receiving load for the day must be accompanied by the original ADVF designated for that day.
The landfill accepts the ACWM load with the original ADVF and the accompanying form, Addendum to ADVF for Transportation and Disposal of ACWM which indicates the company names and truck #s to be used by the ADVF that day
The driver proceeds to the asbestos disposal area - where the contractor, truck company name, truck number, and initials are entered on the addendum sheet.
The Landfill personnel verify that the truck is on the Addendum submitted by the major contractor and verifies the yardage.

NESHAP Compliant Type III Landfills
In addition, these approved enhanced landfills:
Must cover daily
Must conduct air monitoring
Monitoring must be performed per the approved schedule
Analyze via TEM is the fibers/cc using Polarized Contrast Microscopy (PCM) is ½ the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL of .05 f/cc)
Maintain records
Notify the Dept. of any discrepancies
