In compliance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), in the summer of 1988 we performed inspections of each of our school buildings for asbestos containing building materials. The inspection findings and asbestos management plans have been on file in each school administration office since that time.
The EPA requires us to perform re-inspection of the asbestos materials every three years. During the month of February 2016, a periodic inspection was completed. An accredited asbestos inspector will perform these inspections. District Administration reviewed the results of the inspections and recommend actions we should take to safely manage each asbestos material in our buildings.
Specific information relating to the asbestos re-inspection is contained in individual building reports. A copy is on file in each school administration office and at the district office. These reports are available to the public for review.
All asbestos materials in this district have either been abated or are in good condition and we will continue to manage them in place, as recommended.
The results of the re-inspections are on file in the management plan in each school’s administration office. Everyone is welcome to view these anytime during normal school hours (M-Th, 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.). The Asbestos Inspector, Roy Wedding, and Local Education Authority, Chris Selle, are available to answer any questions you may have about asbestos in our buildings at 878-9040.
