Asbestos in Schools AHERA Compliance
The Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) requires that school districts follow regulations that cover inspections for asbestos-containing building materials, management, and staff training.
Schools must complete an inspection of each building used as a school at least once every three years. It is also required that each school maintain a written asbestos management plan to address potential asbestos hazards within the district. Staff that are working with asbestos-containing building materials in schools must be trained and accredited in accordance with the U.S. EPA’s The Asbestos Model Accreditation Plan.
