Asbestos Survey Procedure
The impact of asbestos containing materials (ACM) in a facility is determined by a complete and comprehensive survey of the facility for the presence of ACM. The asbestos hazard assessment program consists of the following:
- Review of all available building records and blueprints.
- Review of all available records of prior abatement activities, construction or renovation.
- Visual inspections of all areas of the facility, followed by comprehensive survey consisting of suspect ACM sampling, labeling and analysis.
- All materials from which samples are collected are assessed for:
Function
- Material Condition
- Potential for Disturbance (From Normal Operations or Repairs)
- Water Damage
- Air Movement Within the Affected Area
- Sample analysis utilizing Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) or Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) with dispersion staining, refractive indices and morphological techniques.
- Comprehensive Survey report Detailing Recommendations formulated for the handling of ACM hazard in the facility.
- Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures are followed to ensure compliance with federal, state and local laws and regulations.
