For small or minor asbestos projects, how many days before must tenants or occupants be notified?

  1. 5 calendar days

  2. 3 calendar days

  3. 10 calendar days

  4. Only on the day of the project

The correct answer is: 3 calendar days

For small or minor asbestos projects, tenants or occupants must be notified at least 3 calendar days in advance. This notification requirement is crucial for ensuring the safety and health of individuals who may be exposed to asbestos during the work. It allows tenants and occupants time to prepare for any potential disruptions or risks associated with asbestos disturbance. Additionally, timely communication regarding the project helps in administering proper precautions and ensuring that individuals are aware of any necessary protective measures they might need to take in advance of the work. This is part of broader regulatory compliance aimed at minimizing health risks associated with asbestos exposure, which is particularly significant in residential settings.
