Ohio Administrative Code|Rule 3745-20-11 | Standard for fabricating.

                                                
(A) This rule applies to the following
		  fabricating operations using commercial asbestos:
(1) Cement building
			 products.
(2) Friction products
			 except those operations that primarily install asbestos friction materials on
			 motor vehicles.
(3) Cement or silicate
			 board for ventilation hoods; ovens; electrical panels; laboratory furniture,
			 bulkheads, partitions, and ceilings for marine construction; and flow control
			 devices for the molten metal industry.
(B) Each owner or operator of any of the
		  fabricating operations to which this rule applies shall perform one of the
		  following:
(1) Not cause or permit
			 any visible emissions to the outside air from any of the operations, or from
			 any building or structure in which they are conducted, or from any other
			 fugitive sources.
(2) Use the methods
			 specified by rule 3745-20-12 of the Administrative Code to clean emissions
			 containing particulate asbestos material before the emissions escape to, or are
			 vented to, the outside air.
(3) Monitor each
			 potential source of asbestos emissions from any part of the fabricating
			 facility, including air cleaning devices, process equipment, and buildings that
			 house equipment for material processing and handling, at least once each day of
			 operation, during daylight hours, for visible emissions to the outside air
			 during periods of operation. The monitoring shall be by visual observation of
			 at least fifteen seconds duration per source of emissions.
(4) Inspect each air
			 cleaning device to the maximum extent possible without dismantling other than
			 opening the device at least once each week for proper operation and for changes
			 that signal the potential for malfunctions, including the presence of tears,
			 holes, and abrasions in filter bags and for dust deposits on the clean side of
			 bags. For air cleaning devices that cannot be inspected on a weekly basis
			 according to this paragraph, submit to the Ohio EPA field office, and revise as
			 necessary, a written maintenance plan to include, at a minimum, the
			 following:
(a) Maintenance schedule.
(b) Recordkeeping plan.
(5) Maintain records of
			 the results of daily visible emission monitoring and weekly air cleaning device
			 inspections, and include the following information:
(a) Date and time of each inspection.
(b) Presence or absence of visible emissions.
(c) Condition of fabric filters, including presence of any tears,
				holes, and abrasions.
(d) Presence of dust deposits on clean side of fabric
				filters.
(e) Brief description of corrective actions taken, including date
				and time.
(f) Daily hours of operation for each air cleaning
				device.
(6) Furnish upon request
			 and make available at the affected facility during normal business hours for
			 inspection by the director or the director's representative, all records
			 required under this rule.
(7) Retain a copy of all
			 monitoring and inspection records for at least two years.
(8) Submit semiannually a
			 copy of the visible emission monitoring records to the Ohio EPA field office if
			 visible emissions occurred during the report period. Semiannual reports shall
			 be postmarked by the thirtieth day following the end of the six-month
			 period.
