For which size of asbestos project is it necessary to file an asbestos project?

In accordance with New York State regulations, it is necessary to file an asbestos project when the amount of asbestos material to be disturbed exceeds specified thresholds. The guidelines state that for projects involving the removal, encapsulation, or enclosure of asbestos, a notification must be submitted when the total quantity of asbestos material exceeds 25 linear feet or 10 square feet.

This threshold is established to ensure that proper protocols are followed to manage asbestos safely and effectively, preventing exposure to harmful fibers. By requiring notification for projects meeting or exceeding these limits, the state can ensure that appropriate oversight and safety measures are in place to protect workers and the general public during asbestos-related activities.

In contrast, the other options present lower thresholds that do not align with the regulatory requirements, as they suggest filing for smaller quantities of asbestos material.
