J • With regard to "Scope of work A", which sets forth the procedures to be employed where minimal dust accumulations are present, BEC has determined that such cleaning work does not constitute an “asbestos project" or "minor asbestos project" as those terms are defined in the DEP Asbestos Rules, Title 15, Chapter 1, Rules of the City of New York §1-02. Further, insofar as DEP is authorized pursuant to §24-146.2 of the New York City Administrative Code to enforce Article 30 of the New York State Labor Law and the regulations adopted thereunder, BEC has determined that cleaning work undertaken pursuant to "Scope of work a" does not constitute an "asbestos project" as defined in §901 of the New York state Labor Law and 12 nycrr part 56-1.4(o).
