AHERA Trained Personnel.
The federal Asbestos
Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) mandates the proper management
asbestos in public schools and provides standards for training of
workers in the asbestos inspection and abatement field. Our personnel
include AHERA Building Inspectors and AHERA Management Planners,
trained at The Asbestos Institute,
Inc., who are fully qualified to perform all varieties of asbestos
building inspections.
NESHAP Building Inspections.
The National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) is the portion of the
federal Clean Air Act that regulates disposal of asbestos-containing
materials (ACM) in commercial buildings and multifamily housing. A
NESHAP Building Inspection by an AHERA Building Inspector is required
prior to demolition of a commercial building or renovation projects
involving demolition of portions of a building. A notification to the
County NESHAP Coordinator is required where ACM will be removed and a
courtesy notification is often included in the demolition permit
application where materials have been found to be non-ACM. Foree &
Vann, Inc. will gladly perform the NESHAP Building Inspection for your
next renovation project.
OSHA Asbestos Inspections.
The federal
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulates worker
exposure to asbestos and other hazards. OSHA standards also call for
asbestos inspections to be performed by AHERA Building Inspectors.
Limited Asbestos Surveys.
Foree & Vann, Inc.
offers a variety of Limited Asbestos Surveys tailored to the
particular needs of the building owner and operators. Our Limited
Asbestos Surveys may be included as an expansion of a Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment.
Asbestos Management Plans.
Where asbestos has been
found in a building, it must be managed safely until such time as it is
removed or the building is demolished. Our AHERA Management Planners
can help you to prepare a suitable Asbestos Management Plan, including
an Observation and
Maintenance (O&M) Program, to ensure safe
asbestos management.
