RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Not an action item
POLICY ISSUE(S):
Planning and Zoning
BACKGROUND:
The basic process for building permits begins with the applicant completing the appropriate building
permit application packet. The application packet contains all of the information an applicant needs to
submit for a building permit. Once the application is submitted it is reviewed for completeness. Any
projects requiring zoning or platting approvals are scheduled for action by the Planning and Zoning
Commission and City Council. Applications not requiring P&Z action are sent to Bureau Veritas for
plan review and entered into the Bureau Veritas web-based tracking system. Bureau Veritas will note
any deficiencies in the plans and works with applicants until the plan meet appropriate codes. After
plans are approved and fees paid permits are issued. At various stages of construction the contractor
will call to schedule an inspection by Bureau Veritas. Any deficiencies noted during an inspection are
noted for correction by the contractor. If a dangerous condition exists, the contractor has not applied for
a permit, or the contractor has not followed the code or procedures, a stop work order can be issued.
Once the final inspection is passed the job is complete and the owner can apply for a certificate of
occupation, if required. Please see the accompanying application packets for a detailed description of
the process. City staff and Bureau Veritas (BV) have had an initial meeting following BV's first month
to review our processes and make minor adjustments. We will continue to monitor the process for areas
of improvement.

(DSHS) Contractor License Number is required if the project falls under TAHPR. The contractor's address must
match that which was submitted on the DSHS license application, ifthe company has more than one office. The site
supervisor must be stated and the DSHS Supervisor License Number is oiily required for public building projects as
defined in TAHPR. Two site supervisors may be listed, if there are two work shifts, etc. For a demolition in which
the building does not contain asbestos, or in which the non-friable asbestos will not be removed prior to demolition,
write "N.A." in the spaces provided for the abatement contractor infonnation.
The trained on-site NESHAP individual and the certification date must be stated for NESHAP projects. The site
supervisor and the trained on-site NESHAP individual may be the same person, if qualified. List the individual's
name in both spaces. Since the DSHS License satisfies the requirements for NESHAP training, provide the
supervisor's name and DSHS License Number and write "N.A." in the spaces for the NES.HAP individual aiid
certification date.
The demolition contractor's name, address, and office phone number must be provided for all demolition projects.
An ame»dment must be submitted ifthe abatement contractor, the abatement supervisor, or the demolition contractor
is changed.
2) A DSHS licensed asbestos project consultant is required to design all asbestos response actions in public buildings. A
DSHS licensed asbestos project consultant is also required to design all asbestos abatement projects which involve
non-friable asbestos-containing building materials in quantities greater than 160 square feet, 260 linear feet, or 35
cubic feet, in accordance with TAHPR. Provide all other information. The consultant's address must match that
which was submitted on the DSHS license application, ifthe company has more than one office. lftlie project is not
in a public building, the general contractor, or any other person who controls the project site, may be listed as the
"operAtor."
3) Provide information on the legal owner of the facility. The invoice for the notification fee will be sent to the owner of
the building and the billing address for the invoice will be obtained from the information that is provided in this
section. The company's name should be written on the first line. A specific person's name should be written
following "Attention..." on the second line. This person will be receiving the notification fee information.
4) Provide the name ofthe building or an identifying description. Example: vacant warehouse. A physical address must
» ODU21l
be provided (not a post office box) and a sufficient description must be provided to locate the site in the event that the
address alone is inadequate. The ZIP CODE for the building MUST be provided. Detailed information must be
provided in all spaces, including the age and size of the building or facility. The name of a contact person at the
facility MUST be provided for inspection purposes, even if the building or facility is vacant. Ifthe building does not
have a phone, list the contact person's phone number. Check whether or not the facility is a kindergarten thmugh 120'
grade school.
5) One type of work must be checked. An asbestos-related activity (asbestos abatement project) is marked as a
renovation. A project that includes the removal of load-bearing structural members is marked as a demolition. If the
project involves both a renovation and demolition portion check the one which will be occurring last as far as project
dates are concerned. An annual consolidated notification can be submitted for a calendar year of January 1 through
December 31. The annual consolidated notification will predict all asbestos O&M operations and all small, separate
abatement projects that are less than 160 square feet, 260 linear feet or 35 cubic feet. The predicted, additive amount
of asbestos to be removed or stripped during the one-year period must be listed in the chart in Section 12.
A phased project classification can be added to the type of work; it cannot be marked alone. (The project may be a
phased renovation or a phased demolition - the phased box AND either the renovation box or demolition box must be
checked). A description of the phased project schedule must be sent to the appropriate DSHS or Local Program
inspector. The DSHS policy regarding phased projects must be strictly followed, if that box is checked. (A copy of
the phased project policy letter caii be obtained by calling any DSHS inspector). The scheduled work time must be
checked. A description of the work schedule must be provided, if the schedule varies from that ]isted as the project
dates (Section 16 and/or Section 17). Example: If a project is scheduled to last one month, but the contractor will not
be working on the weekends, a statement should be included that say "Working Monday - Friday." The statement
must be accurate; an inspection will be based upon the provided information.
6) The rype of building/facility must be checked. Only one box may be checked. An eaample of a NESI-iAP-Only
Facility would be a house that was being demolislied as part of a Texas Department of Transportation right-of=way
project, or a ship. Check whether the building/faciliry is occupied. lfthe building/facility is vacant during the time of
the renovation, but will later be re-occupied (not demolished), then indicate that the building/facility is occupied.
7) The notification type must be checked. An original must be postmarked 10 working days (Mon. - Fri.) prior to the
start dat.e. An amendment is required for any stop date, which changes by more than one working day for each week
for which the project has been scheduled. An amendment must be submitted for any changes from the original
notification and must be provided to DSHS no less than 24 hours prior to the change, including stop date changes.
Please note these changes by circling or highlighting them on the form. Attach a copy ofthe original notification or
previous amendment to the back ofthe ainendment (Example: lfyou are sending in Amendment 2 attach a copy of
Amendment ] beliind it. When marking which Amendment you are sending in, do not count the Original nofification
as Amendment l.The start date can be any day after the l Oth working day and must be specified in Section 16. A
cancellation must be postmarked 24 hours or more prior to the scheduled start date. If asbestos abatement or
demolition will begin earlier than scheduled, an amendment must be post7narked at least 10 working days prior to the
new start date. ]f the start date is to be delayed, the amendment must be postmarked 24 hours prior to the scheduled
original start date. The appropriate DSHS Regional or Local Program inspector must be notified by phone of all
start or stop date changes.
The appropriate DSHS Regional or Local Program inspector should be contacted in the event of an emergency. All
infortnation regazding an emergency must be provided. Emergency notifications must be poshnazked no later than the
following working day after the emergency incident.
lfthe demolition is ordered, then all information in Section ] 5 must be provided. The appropriate DSHS Regional or
Local Program inspector should be notified, by telephone or in person, prior to beginning the ordered demolition.
Notifications for ordered demolition must be postmarked as sooii as practicable, but no later than the following
working day after the demolition. A copy of the demolition order must be submitted with the notification.
8) Provide adequate information to demonstrate that appropriate actions have been considered and can be implemented to
control asbestos emissions adequately, including conformance with applicable work practice standards. Tliis section
2
0 UUU21"Z
must be completed, even if no asbestos was discovered in the survey. Example: stop work; contact
owner/consultuit and DSHS; demarcate area; secure critical barriers.
9) An asbestos survey/inspection must be performed prior to any renovation or demolition. A DSHS licensed inspector
must perform the inspection if the project is in a public building. Provide the DSHS Inspector License Number, if
required. If the survey/inspection was perfonned in a public building prior to January 1993, or if the project is not in a
public building, "N.A." should be placed in the space for the DSHS License Number. 7'he date that the survey was
perfonned must be provided. The analytical method used to detect the presence of asbestos must be checked. TAfiPR
requires that a DSHS licensed laboratory perform the analysis of samples from public buildings. Provide the DSHS
Laboratory Number ifthe samples are collected from a public building. Ifthere was no suspect material discovered,
such as a garage, built of concrete and steel only, indicate no suspect material found by the license number. The
assumption of asbestos-containing building material (for renovations) in a public building must be made by a DSHS
licensed inspector. The "yes" box would be checked, the date that the survey (assessment) was perfonned would be
provided, the DSHS Inspector License Number would be provided, and the "assumed" analytical method boY would
be checked on the notification form, for an assumption of any asbestos-containing materials that would be abated
during a renovation project. When an assumption of asbestos-containing material is done in a non-public
building, all of the above must be completed except for the DSHS Inspector and Laboratory License Numbers (not
required).
10) Include in this section the demolition and renovation techniques to be used and a description ofthe areas and types of
facility components, wliich will be affected by this work. The specific type of asbestos-containing building material
that will be abated must be listed. Example: Vinyl asbestos-containing floor tiles to be removed by wet methods
recommended by the Resilient Floor Covering Institute.
11) Describe the work practices and engineering controls selected to ensure compliance with the requirements of the
regulations, including both the asbestos removal and waste-handling emission control techniques. Example: describe
a glove-bag procedure, including the use of a HEPA vacuum. Work practices that vary from the provisions of
TAHPR, §295.60 must be clearly described in this section.
] 2) If asbestos is present, the chart must be completed. 1f no asbestos is present (a.s revealed by the survey), check the box
provided. Category I non-friable ACBM includes floor tile, when removed intact, floor tile mastic, gaskets, and
roofing material. Category II non-friable AGBM includes transite siding. Use the appropriate row to designaie
whether the "Category I or Category 11 non-friable ACBM to be removed" is located on the interior or exterior of the
building. IfCategory 1 or fl materials are to be sanded, gound, abraded, crumbled, pulverized, reduced to powder, or
have the potential to become friable because of the abatement procedures, then list them with RACM. " Category I
and Il NOT removed" would be listed for demolitions or for enclosure or encapsulation. (Transite does not remain
Category 11 during demolition and must be removed prior to demolition). "RACM NOT removed" would be listed for
enclosure or encapsulation or in the event of a demolition under very specific conditions (such as the demolition of a
structurally unsound building). RACM 0ff-Faciliry Component (material that is not attached to the facility) shall only
be measured in cubic feet or cubic meters. All other material must be measured in linear feet or meters (pipes) or in
square feet or meters (surface material). If an abatement will be performed in a portico, or a HVAC system that
conditions the inside of a public building, list the amount as "Interior Category I non-friable removed, Interior
Category II non-friable removed, or RACM to be removed", depending on the type of ACBM that will be removed.
The amounts listed should always reflect the TOTAL amount removed during the project.
13) Provide all information for the waste transporter. The TAHPR reyuires that a DSHS Licensed Transporter transport
ACBM from the public building removal site to the waste disposal site. Provide the license number ifthe project is a
public building. tf you are performing a demolition without ACBM you still need to list who will be transporting the
waste from the project site. If two waste transporters are utilized, one to transport to a holding site aiid one to
transport from tlie holdiiig site to the waste disposal site, list the first transporter on the notification. However, the
waste manifest must contain infonnation for both transporten.
14) Provide all information for the waste disposal site. State regulations require that all waste disposal sites be permitted
by the Teaas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), including disposal sites located at industrial facilities.
Provide the permit number.
UUU2ii
15) All information must be provided if a building was ordered to be detnolislied. To qualify for a waiver of the 10-day
notification requirement, the building MUST be detern►ined to be structurally unsound and in danger of imminent
collapse by a qualified person, as defined in the NESHAP rules. Attach a copy of the demolition order to the
notification.
] 6) lf ACBM is to be removed before a building is to be demolished or renovated, enter the removal dates (start and
completion) in this section. Asbestos abatement work includes any activity which will disturb ACBM. The asbestos
abatement start date is the date that asbestos will be disturbed. The asbestos abatement activiry stop date is the date
upon which air monitoring clearance has been achieved. In no event shall an abatement start or be comnleted on a
date ot6er than the dates entered in this section (see Section 295.61(fl). Refer to Section 7 for information on
notifying of any change in the start and completion dates.
17) Enter the scheduled dates for the siarl and completion of the building demolition. ln no event shall a demolition
start or be completed on a date other than the dates entered in this section. Refer to Section 7 for infonration on
notifying of any changes in the start or completion dates. When the building will not be demolished, but an abatement
will be performed, the dates of the total renovation (remodeling) project can be provided in this section. The
notification will remain active, if the renovation dates are provided.
18) The notificatio» for the abatement in a nublic buildinQ shall onlv be siQned bv the leQal owner, his designated lesal
representative, the DSHS licensed abatement contractor or Ihe DSHSlicensed consultant. The TAHPR allows for
this task to be delegated to the DSHS licensed cantractor or the DSHS licensed consultant IN WRITING, however,
the responsibility continues to be shazed with the owner. For a NESHAP abatement or demolition, the notification
form may be signed by the legal owner or the operator of the site. The name must also be printed and the date and
telephone number must be provided. The signature must be an original, a copied signature will not be accepted.
Please Sign in blue or red ink to avoid confusion.
