What is a requirement for notifying tenants or occupants prior to an asbestos project according to the EPA?

Oral notification 5 days in advance
Written notification 10 days before
Written notification 3 days before
Oral notification on the day of work

The correct answer is: Written notification 10 days before

The requirement for notifying tenants or occupants prior to an asbestos project is that there must be written notification at least 10 days in advance. This ensures that tenants and occupants have sufficient time to prepare for any potential disturbances or health risks associated with asbestos removal or remediation activities. The 10-day advance notice provides a clear and formal way to inform individuals who may be affected by the asbestos project, allowing them to make necessary arrangements for their safety and well-being. Written notification is preferred over oral communication, as it provides a documented record of the notification and details about the impending work, which can be important for compliance and transparency.
