LDEQ Demolition Inspector Training by Jodi G. Miller LDEQ Air Permits Division With Assistance from Betty Brousseau Michael Drury Kevin Cousins LDEQ Surveillance Division Initial: September 19, 2006 Revised: October 2, 2006
LDEQ Demolition Inspector Training Katrina destroyed many homes. Many of the older homes that will be demolished have asbestos-containing materials (ACM). Homes that have been identified or assumed to have ACM must be handled in a special way to ensure that there is no release of asbestos fibers, which could violate the federal and state rules governing asbestos removal (LESHAP). The purpose of this class is to review the Demo Inspector checklist and LESHAP regulations to ensure that you understand what is required during the demolition process. Introduction
LDEQ Demolition Inspector Training Demo Inspector Checklist If demolition is being conducted by the homeowner (or their contractor) then LESHAP is not applicable.

Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field Description: The hose from the water truck (parked on Hwy 23) was unable to reach the back of the demolition site. This area was not being wet down during demolition.
Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field Description: Excavator rolling on RACM Debris
Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field Description: Unmanned water hose (see arrow)
Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field • Description: Excavator rolling on RACM debris
Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field Description: Dust emissions from RACM debris due to inadequate wetting.
Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field Description: Incomplete burrito wrap; the front of the truck was not lined.
Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field Description: Incomplete burrito wrap; the top of the burrito bag was not sealed.
Types of Concerns to Look For in the Field Description: Burrito wrap taped over the trailer crossbar. This would prevent the burrito bag from sliding out in one piece.
Additional Comments Supervisors need to be aware of the demo protocol. Need for adequate supervision at sites; more than just the excavator operator and the hose man. Most of the problems we have encountered were due to inadequate supervision. Rolling on RACM Debris is not allowed under any circumstances.
Additional Comments Burrito wrap: • Leak-tight container (Complete bag or glue &/or taping) • The idea is for the bag to slide out in one piece. No gluing of the bag to the sides of the trailer; do not tape the top of the bag over the trailer crossbar • Clear plastic or polyethylene is required • Need tape and/or glue (must be secure) • Back flap under side flaps, front flap over side flaps • Generator label - prefer indelible marker In practice, DEQ only requires tape or glue…just as long as the wrap is sealed and holds up in transport. (recent problems)
Additional Comments Wetting of Debris: • Structure must be wet down before the demolition begins. • Excavator should not be working unless there is somebody working the water hose. • Must have properly operating equipment (hoses in good shape, adequate pressure). • Mention pressure washer attachment; still must use a large volume hose for the roof. • If two pieces of equipment are working, may need two water hoses.
Additional Comments Asbestos Accreditations: • Hot zone workers, equipment operators, air-monitors, and supervisors must have their LDEQ asbestos accreditation certificate and photo ID; or LDEQ asbestos accreditation ID onsite. • Copy of LDEQ accreditation certificate & own ID picture ID is allowed.
