File Number: 19-366 addition of square footage). Section 3. Applicability This Article applies to Applicants for buildings constructed or remodeled from January 1, 1950 to December 31, 1980. Section 4. Exemptions Applications for remodeling, partial building, wood framed structure, and single-family residence demolition projects are exempt. Section 5. PCBs in Priority Building Materials Screening Assessment Every Applicant for a building demolition permit shall conduct a PCBs in Priority Building Materials Screening Assessment, a two-step process used to a. determine whether the building proposed for demolition is high priority for PCBs- containing building materials based on the structure age, use, and construction (i.e., whether the building is an Applicable Structure); and if so b. demonstrate the presence or absence and concentration of PCBs in Priority Building Materials through existing information or representative sampling and chemical analysis of the Priority Building Materials in the building. Applicants shall follow the directions provided in the PCBs in Priority Building Materials Screening Assessment Applicant Package (Applicant Package), which includes an overview of the process, Applicant instructions, a process flow chart, a screening assessment form, and the Protocol for Assessing Priority PCBs-Containing Materials before Building Demolition. Per the Applicant Package, for certain types of buildings built within a specified date range, the Applicant must conduct further assessment to determine whether or not PCBs are present at concentrations ≥ 50 ppm. This determination shall be made via existing data on specific product formulations (if available), or via conducting representative sampling of the priority building materials and analyzing the samples for PCBs at a certified analytical laboratory. Any representative sampling and analysis must be conducted in accordance with the Protocol for Assessing Priority PCBs-Containing Materials before Building Demolition. The Applicant Package shall provide additional details. Section 6.Agency Notification, Abatement, and Disposal for Identified PCBs When the PCBs in Priority Building Materials Screening Assessment identifies one or more Priority Building Materials with PCBs, the Applicant must comply with all related applicable federal and state laws, including potential notification of the appropriate regulatory agencies, including EPA, the Regional Water Board, and/or the DTSC. Agency contacts are provided in the Applicant Package. Additional sampling for and abatement of PCBs may be required. Depending on the approach for sampling and removing building materials containing PCBs, the Applicant shall notify or seek advance approval from USEPA before building demolition. Even in circumstances where advance notification to or approval from USEPA is not required before the demolition activity, the disposal of PCBs waste shall remain regulated under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Additionally, the disposal of PCBs waste shall remain subject to California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 22 Section 66262. Additional information shall be in the Applicant Package. Section 7. Compliance with California and Federal PCBs Laws and Regulations Applicants must comply with all Federal and California laws and regulations, including but not limited to health, safety, and environmental laws and regulations, that relate to management and cleanup of any and all PCBs, including but not limited to PCBs in Priority Building Materials, other PCBs-contaminated materials, PCBs-contaminated liquids, and PCBs waste.
