| When placing asbestos waste in the holding
container, the following steps in this policy are to be complied with: 1. Asbestos containing materials (ACM) placed in the storage space
must be in sealed, leak-tight containers, typically double 6 mil poly bags pre-labeled
with the regulation asbestos warning.
2. A WCU Internal Chain Of Custody form that has been
approved by the Environmental Health & Safety Department is to be filled out for each
container (or group of containers) associated with a given project. Once the containers
have been placed in the storage space, copies of the Chain Of Custody are to be filed with
the Plant Operations and the university’s EH&S department, as indicated on the
form.
3. For the Plant Operations Department purposes, when bags or
other containers of ACM are placed in the storage space they are to be logged on the
Asbestos Waste Container Log located on the inside of the container door.
4. Containers of ACM may only be accepted into the storage
space by the Boiler Plant Manager, the Asbestos Removal Team Foreman, the Facilities
Safety Coordinator or the Director of the EH&S Department. The person responsible for
receiving the ACM into the storage space must sign the Chain of Custody form indicating
they have received the containers.
5. In addition to the regulation warning, the containers
and/or bags are to be labeled with the following:
