(b) taking the following measures, must be taken when removing the specified building materials by using power tools such as electric grinders:
(1) covering with tarpaulins beforehand around the area around where the specified building materials are to be removed must be contained in advance.
(2) moistening the specified building materials to be removed, by must be wetted using a chemical solution or other agents, etc.
(c) specified particulates in the work area must be cleaned up sanitizing the specified particulates still remaining in the work area after the removal of the specified construction materials,. In this case,and if the work area has been covered with tarpaulins, sanitizing the work area or otherwise processing the specified particulates existingstill remaining in the work areathere at the time of removing the tarpaulins from the covered areasuch as by cleaning them up when containment equipment put in place is to be decommissioned.
(iv)
Among work listedthe tasks stated in Article 3-4, items (i) or (ii) of the Order, work totasks for removinge molded boards or other construction materials containing asbestos (excluding spray-applied asbestos, asbestos-containing insulation materials, etc., and surface coatings containing asbestos; referred to as "molded boards or other materials containing asbestos, etc." in the right column of this sectionrow) (excluding those task listed stated in rows (i) to through (iii) and in the following row.)
Removinge specified building materials being used in a building or other structure, etc. subject to be constructed with specified particulates discharging workthe task in compliance with the following requirements, or takinge any measures having an effect equal to or greater than that removalthe same or better efficiency than that:
(a) taking away the sSpecified building materials must be taken away unchangedas they are, from thea building or other such structure without cutting through, crushing the specified building materialsthem, etc.
(b) moistening the specified building materials to be removed (except those prescribed in (c) below), by using a chemical solution or other agents, wWhen removing specified buildingthose materials (except those stipulated in (c)) by the methods referred to in (a) above is technically significantly problematic difficult in terms of any technical aspects, or is inherently impractical in terms of the nature of the task which is being undertaken, as one which falls under the category of the tasks when carrying out the work as listedstated in Article 3-4, item (ii) is inherently impractical, the specified building materials to be removed must be wetted using chemical solution, etc.
(c) Among molded boards containing asbestos, etc., taking the following measures, if the molded boards or other materials containing asbestos fall under the category of those must be taken when removing those which have been specified by the Minister of the Environment as being sources of emitting or dispersing specified particulates in relatively large quantities, and removing them by the methods referred to in (a) above is technically significantly difficult in terms of any technical aspects,problematic or when carrying out the work as listed in Article 3-4, item (ii) is inherently impractical in terms of the nature of the task which is being undertaken, as one which falls under the category of the tasks stated in Article 3-4, item (ii).
(1) covering with tarpaulins beforehand around the area aroundfrom which where the specified building materials are to be removed must be contained in advance.
(2) moistening the specified building materials to be removed, by must be wetted using a chemical solution or other agents etc.
(d) specified particulates in the work area must be cleaned up moistening the specified particulates still remaining in the work area after the removal of the specified construction materials,. In this caseand if the work area has been covered with tarpaulins, process specified particulates existing in the work area such as bysanitizing cleaning them up the work area or otherwise processing the specified particulates still remaining there at the time ofwhen removing the tarpaulins from the covered areacontainment equipment put in place is to be decommissioned.
(v)
Among the tasks work listedstated in Article 3-4, item (i) of the Order, that performed totasks for demolishing a building or other such structure in a condition dangerous for a person to enter, or other otherwise performed in cases wheretasks in which it is extremely difficult to remove the specified building materials beforehandin advance whenin demolishing a building or other such structure
Spraying water over thea building or other such structure subject to be constructed with specified particulates discharging work the task, or take any measures having an effect equal to or greater than that spray the same or better efficiency than that.
(vi)
Among the tasks statedwork listed in Article 3-4, item (ii) of the Order, work tasks related to spray-applied asbestos or asbestos-containing insulation materials, etc.
Removingal or enclosure etc. of the specified building materials used in partthe area of a building or , etcother structure. subject to be constructed with specified particulates discharging workthe task, or enclosing or containing those materials, in compliance with the following requirements, or taking any measures having an effect equal to or greater than that removalthe same or better efficiency than those, enclosure, containment:
(a) complying with the matters listed stated in (a) through (g) above of the right column of row (1) in cases wheref the specified building materials are to be removed by scraping, cutting, or crushing them, andor complying with the matters listed stated in (a) through (c) above of the right column of row (2) in cases wheref the specified building materials are to be removed by other methods;
(b) when conducting enclosure etc. of specified building materials, confirming the degradation condition of the specified building materials , and their bonding condition of the specified building materials with the ground, when enclosing or containing those materials, and if the degradation is remarkable or the bonding with the ground is badnot well, then removinge the specified buildingthose materials.
(c) the provisions of (a) through (g) above of the right column of row (1) are applicable shall be applied when carrying out the enclosing ure of spray-applied asbestos, or the enclossure, etc. ofing or containing asbestos-containing insulation materials, etc. (limited to the enclosure or containment in which where thethese building materials are cutting, crusheding, etc. of these building materials is involved) or when the containment ofing spray-applied asbestos. In this case, the phrase "removing" in (a) through (g) above of the right column of row (1) is read asdeemed to be replaced with "conducting enclossure etc.ing or containing" and the phrase "removal" is deemed to be replaced withread as "enclosure or containmentetc.".
