Can the building force me to remove asbestos?

We're in the middle of a gut renovation, and demo has revealed some steam heat riser pipes that are wrapped in asbestos. They are not being disturbed at all and will be enclosed. Our ACP-5 form, done before the demo, had stated "assumed asbestos in pipe wrapping, will not disturb". The building architect, upon a field visit requested by the building, had written "The architect should advise the building with regard to any requirements for abatement or removal". We will respond to say that it's undisturbed and will be enclosed. We won't remove it. But can the building force us to remove it? I really don't want to spread it all around when it's perfectly undisturbed. Is there any law on this topic?
