Reinspection and Reassessment 40 CFR 763. 85 &. 88

Reinspection • Every 3 years a certified Inspector must conduct a reinspection of all friable and nonfriable ACM that is being maintained in the school building. • Reassess all friable ACM under. 88 • Assess under. 88 all nonfriable that has become friable since the last inspection

Reassessment • Use the standard assessment protocol that you learned in your original Inspector training. • Classify into one of the standard assessment categories in. 88(b). • Compare the current assessment category for each material to that contained in the most recent previous inspection report. • If any of the categories have changed, a Management Planner must be called on to determine if a new response action is needed, and is so, when it must be conducted.

AHERA PHYSICAL ASSESSMENT 1. TSI (D or SD) 2. Surfacing (D) 3. Surfacing (SD) Damaged FRIABLE and TSI ACBM only!! 4. Miscellaneous (D or SD) 6. Potential for Significant Damage 7. ACBM with Low Potential for Damage Good 5. Potential for Damage

AHERA PHYSICAL ASSESSMENT The material being assessed will be in one of the following conditions: SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGED GOOD Remember, you must justify in writing, your classification! The assessment is usually by functional space

SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE Evenly distributed damage: - Surface or pipe damaged or jackets missing over at least 10% Localized damage: - Surface or pipe damaged or missing over at least 25% This is based on the amount of that material in that functional space.

DAMAGE Evenly distributed damage: - Surface or pipe damaged or jackets missing over less than 10% Localized damage: - Surface or pipe damaged or missing over less than 25% This is based on the amount of that material in that functional space.

GOOD Material with no visible damage or deterioration, or showing only very limited damage or deterioration. This is not necessarily perfect. It may be damaged up to a “maintenance”, or “Class III” level. “Damage” means that an abatement contractor would have to repair it.

ASSESSING THE POTENTIAL FOR DISTURBANCE “Potential for Disturbance” means the potential for damage from 3 causes: CONTACT VIBRATION AIR EROSION This evaluation will categorize material into categories 5, 6 or 7. Do not reason your way into these categories. Follow AHERA protocol! The protocol will determine the category.

POTENTIAL FOR DISTURBANCE CONTACT HIGH: Service workers work in the vicinity of the material more than once per week MODERATE: …once per month to once per week. . week LOW: …less than once per month. . . month OR HIGH: The material is in a public area (hallway, corridor, auditorium), and accessible to occupants MODERATE: The material is in a room or office, and accessible to occupants. LOW: The material is visible, but not within reach of occupants

POTENTIAL FOR DISTURBANCE VIBRATION HIGH: Loud motors or engines present (some mechanical rooms) or intrusive noises or easily sensed vibrations (major airports, major highway). MODERATE: Motors or engines present, but not obtrusive (ducts vibrating, but no fan in the area) or occasional loud sounds (a music room). room LOW: None of the above

POTENTIAL FOR DISTURBANCE AIR EROSION HIGH: High velocity air ( elevator shaft, fan room). MODERATE: Noticeable movement of air (air shaft, ventilator air stream). LOW: None of the above.

POTENTIAL FOR DISTURBANCE C X HIGH V A x PSD X MODERATE x PD LOW The classification is the highest value x
