You must complete a notification for each job and location where you perform asbestos removal work:

at least 24 hours before starting asbestos removal work if the total area to be removed is 10 square metres or less of non-friable asbestos-containing material
within 24 hours of starting asbestos removal work if the asbestos removal work is undertaken as the result of an unexpected situation
at least five days before the asbestos removal work starts in all other cases, including where asbestos removal work involves friable asbestos or non-friable asbestos greater than 10 square metres
