(k) "Priority Building Materials Screening Assessment Applicant Package" (Applicant Package) means a document package that includes an overview of the screening process, Applicant instructions, a process flow chart, a screening assessment form, and the Protocol for Evaluating Priority PCBs -Containing Materials before Building Demolition (BASMAA 2018, prepared for the Bay Area Stormwater Management Agencies Association, August 2018). (1) "Regional Water Board" means the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Francisco Bay Region. (m) "Remodel" means to make significant finish and/or structural changes that increase utility and appeal through complete replacement and/or expansion. A removed area reflects fundamental changes that include multiple alterations. These alterations may include some or all of the following: replacement of a major component (cabinet(s), bathtub, or bathroom tile), relocation of plumbing/gas fixtures/appliances, or significant structural alterations (relocating walls, and/or the 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 ORDINANCE NO. 2019-011 4
