A November 1990 EPA Region 6 cover letter to the Texas Air Control Board responds to written questions about enforcing the asbestos NESHAP for demolition and renovation. The enclosure answers questions on floor tile, mastic, notification, siding/transite, joint compound and enforcement policy, and is followed by 1990 EPA letters and a memorandum on shot-blasting removal of asbestos-containing mastic.
