Annual Asbestos Notification
Annual Asbestos Notification
In accordance with the federal Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) 40 CFR §763.84.c and in compliance with the EPA standards, the Santee Community School District is required to notify parents, teachers, vendors, contractors, staff and other employees each year of the availability of Asbestos Management Plans which documents all performed or planned asbestos related inspections, response actions, and post-response action activities, including periodic re-inspection and surveillance activities within the school district. A copy of this Asbestos Management Plan is available for your review at the Districts Superintendent’s Office. Users of the District’s buildings, both children and adults, have not and will not be exposed to any level of free and harmful asbestos. Covering, enclosing and/or encapsulation have provided the necessary protection from any possible hazards. A periodic surveillance of all school building has occurred every six months since the original inspection and a completed re-inspection of each school building is completed every three years. The Asbestos Management Plan includes the results of each periodic surveillance and the most recent re-inspection as well as documentation of asbestos related activities. If you would like additional information regarding the District’s Asbestos Management Plan please contact the Designated Asbestos Compliance Coordinator at Santee Community School District, 402-857-2741.
