Follow these steps to fill out and submit the form correctly. Each step maps to a section of the document.
Step 1: Identify Your Project Type
Mark whether your project is a demolition, renovation, or emergency operation. Each type has its own filing timeline and threshold. Renovation projects must meet a minimum square footage or linear footage of asbestos material to require notification. Confirm your project qualifies before proceeding.
Step 2: Gather Facility and Contractor Details
Collect the facility's full legal name, address, and owner contact information. Add your licensed abatement contractor's name, license number, and insurance certificate. All contractor details must be current at the time of filing. The district may verify these records.
Step 3: Document the Asbestos-Containing Materials
List every material identified as containing asbestos. Include its location in the building, the estimated quantity in linear or square feet, and how it was identified. Accepted identification methods are an inspection report, lab analysis, or assumed presence. Thorough documentation speeds up district review.
Step 4: Describe Your Abatement Methods
Explain the removal or containment methods your contractor will use. State whether wet methods, encapsulation, or full removal is planned. List any engineering controls such as negative air pressure systems or HEPA filtration units. Be specific. Vague descriptions often require follow-up from the district.
Step 5: Complete the Waste Disposal Plan
Name the licensed disposal facility that will accept the asbestos waste. Describe how waste will be packaged, labeled, and transported. Use a licensed hazardous waste transporter when required. An Asbestos Disposal Manifest Form may also need to accompany the waste shipment.
Step 6: Submit to Louisville APCD
Send the completed notification to the Louisville-Jefferson County Metro Government Air Pollution Control District. Do this at least ten working days before your planned start date. Keep a copy of your filing and any confirmation from the district. Contact the office directly for questions about emergency notification procedures or project-specific requirements.
