SUBJECT:       AHERA Compliance Notification

 

 

In accordance with AHERA regulations, school districts are required to perform several activities with regards to Asbestos in schools. These activities include an initial asbestos inspection and development of a Management Plan. The Management Plan addresses how identified asbestos containing materials (ACM) will be handled (abated or managed in place).

 

As part of the Management Plan, schools are also required to provide notification to all parents, teachers, and employees of our ongoing management of ACM's.

 

To provide continuing management of the asbestos in our schools, all asbestos containing materials (ACM) are inspected every six months by an environmental consulting firm from Jackson, MS. Any changes in the ACM are being recorded in a surveillance report as part of the Management Plan.

 

A copy of this surveillance report, along with a copy of the Management Plan, and all supplementary information is located in the Local Education Agency (LEA) Designee office at each school. In addition, a copy of all management plans for all districts schools in maintained in the LEA'S office located at (place address of office here). These documents are available for review at either of these locations.
