The 1989"ban"on asbestos-containing materials is commonly misunderstood.in fact,in 1991 the U.S.Fifth Circuit Court of appeals vacated much of the so-called"Asbestos Ban and Phaseout Rule"and remanded it to the EPA.Thus,much of the original 1989 EPA ban on the U.S.manufacturing,importation, processing,or distribution in commerce of many asbestos-containing product categories was set aside and DID NOT TAKE EFFECT.Therefore,ALL demolition,remodel or renovation projects must determine if disturbed material above the trigger levels contains asbestos.

If the answer is YES to any of the above,you will need an asbestos test before you can receive a building and/ or demolition permit.You will also need to provide plans indicating areas to be demolished and determine if a CO state demolition license is required.A state certified asbestos inspector must do this test and the test report must be submitted with the building permit application. If the building has asbestos, a state certified asbestos abatement firm must remove it. After removal,the abatement firm must provide a letter to the Building Department stating that all the asbestos has been removed and that the air is clean.This letter must be received BEFORE a permit will be issued. (See the local or statewide Yellow Pages, DexOnLine, or http://www.cdphe.state. co.us/ap/asbestos/index.html for certified asbestos inspectors and abatement companies. ALWAYS ask for proof of current state certification.) If you are demolishing the building,you must submit a demolition permit app with the CDPHE in addition to the Aspen permit app.This form may be found at https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdphe/asbestos-forms NOTE: A copy of this demolition permit app must be submitted with the initial building permit application. When the CDPHE approves the app,their issued permit must be given to the Aspen Building Dept before we issue our permit. I hereby certify that the above information is true and complete.
