6. DESCRIPTION.

6.1. Work procedures for handling asbestos

6.1.1. Work procedure

• First carry out a visual inspection of the building or work.

• Identify asbestos materials.
• Since the material to be removed is at a height, scaffolding will be used for the job.
sure.

• Workers must have a safety harness with a Y-type life tail.

• If a material is suspected of containing asbestos, while there are no laboratories that

have the analysis techniques for these materials to confirm and rule out the presence of
asbestos fiber in them, they must be removed as if they actually contained this fiber.
• Use special personal protection elements, Tyvek paper coverall, double-filter half-face respirator,
p100 filter.
• Mark the area where the asbestos material is found.
• Only the workers who will carry out said work may be present at the site.

• Sheets, pipes or other asbestos materials should not be sawed, sanded, polished, tapped or
drilled.

• When intervening on an asbestos sheet, the repair must be carried out by moistening the surface
in order to minimize the release of fiber. This humidification will be carried out through water.

• An effort will be made to cut in the same direction of the wind so that the dispersion of the fibers
does not directly affect the affected worker.
6.1.2. To lower or raise asbestos material.

• For lower the plates with asbestos from the ceiling should be done between 2
workers.

• For move materials of asbestos thatit is impossible to maneuver manually either

To raise or lower them, slings or other mooring equipment must be used, and its status must be
verified prior to each activity.

• When the material is greater than 25kg, lifting must be carried out using mechanical help.

6.2. Control measures adopted to prevent the generation and dispersion of asbestos fibers
into the environment

• Before removing the asbestos material, moisten the materials with a product that prevents the
release of asbestos fibers (example: 20% vinyl latex solution).
• Clean the structure where the asbestos material was located.
To do this, use damp cloths so that no asbestos fiber remains.

• The waste generated from this cleaning must be disposed of with the rest of the waste
contaminated with asbestos, in well-sealed and labeled bags.

• The material containing asbestos (sheet, pipe, etc.) must be wrapped in plastic at least
80 microns thick or another type of wrapping, but of equal or better quality and labeled.

• The bags or other systems used must be sufficiently resistant to allow the transportation
and final disposal of this waste without breaking it.

6.3. Personal protection elements (PPE).

• The following PPE will be provided to workers:

- Respiratory protection: 3M 6200 half-face mask or another with equal or greater protection
with a P100 or similar filter.
- Work clothing: disposable coverall (Tyvek type) with hood and shoe covers.
- safety shoes o Safety boots.
- Nitrile gloves
- Sealed goggles with adjustment to the contour of the face
- Safety helmet

• The use of disposable respiratory protection will not be accepted.

• All disposable PPE must be placed in labeled containers and disposed of along with the rest of
the waste generated.

6.4. Characteristics of the worker decontamination zone.

Only workers handling the MCA will be decontaminated in this area.
The decontamination zone will be as close as possible to the work area.

Characteristics:

• The decontamination zone will be made up of three zones: “Dirty Zone”, “Dirty Zone”.
Showers” and “Clean Zone”, located in a linear manner.

• These areas will be clearly marked on the outside, so that they are
easily identified by workers.

• The surface for each area must be at least 1 m 2

per worker, and the total surface must
be associated with the number of workers who will use this area (dirty, shower and
clean) simultaneously.

• The dirty area and the shower area will be waterproofed, including its walls, doors, floors and
ceilings.
• Access to the dirty area will be independent of access to the clean area.

• Access to the dirty area will have a security perimeter, to prevent people or communities
outside of this activity from traveling nearby and being exposed to asbestos fibers.

6.4.2. Shower area

• The cloakroom must be equipped with a shower with hot and cold water (the
number of showers will be calculated according to the provisions of article 23 of
DS 594/99).
• Only workers handling the MCA will be decontaminated in this area.

6.4.3. Clean Zone

• The Zone will have 2 lockers per worker, one of them to store clean clothes (street) and
the other to store PPE that is not disposable and that has been decontaminated before
being stored.

6.5. Procedures for evaluation and control of the work environment.

For scheduled work with friable asbestos, the CCHC Mutual Safety Agency will be requested to evaluate

types of asbestos in workplaces, its value being equal to 0.1 fibers/cc. The results will be communicated
to the area, according to these additional controls will be defined.

6.6. Waste management

The waste generated from MCA (roofing sheets) cannot be sold, reused, or given away. MCA can be
classified, according to its risk, as hazardous or non-hazardous waste.

6.6.1. non-hazardous waste

• Non-friable asbestos material waste that is in good condition (not damaged or broken).

• This material must be encapsulated.

• All measures indicated in point 6.2 “Control measures adopted to prevent the generation
and dispersion of asbestos fibers into the environment” must be taken.

• To remove waste, authorization must be requested from SEREMI de Salud. This through
the “Request for authorization of treatment and/or final disposition” form. of waste
industrial solids for generators, this
The form must be requested at the offices of the respective SEREMIs.
