,What is Title 8 CCR 5208 and 29 CFR 1910.1001? - ANS General Industry
What is plenum space? - ANS An enclosed space that is used for airflow. Example:
the area above a drop ceiling.
What is fibrosis? - ANS formation of scar tissue in the lungs
What is mesothelioma? - ANS Cancer that arises from the mesothelial cells of the
pleura is caused by asbestos fibers
K
What is Asbestosis - ANS Asbestosis is a condition developed in the lungs as a result
of inhalation of asbestosis fibers.
C
What is AHERA? - ANS Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act
LO
What is the dose-response relationship with asbestos and cancer? - ANS The
correlation between exposure to asbestos and disease (i.e. cumulative effect of high
exposure and short duration or chronic exposure over longer duration)
What is the most common asbestos related disease? - ANS Asbestosis
YC
What can a B-reader do? - ANS Interpret Chest X-rays
What type of encapsulation forms a "hard shell" or membrane over the surface? - ANS
Bridging encapsulation
D
What type encapsulation does not leave a discreet surface layer? - ANS Penetrating
U
encapsulation
Bridging Encapsulant - ANS The type of encapsulation that forms a hard shell on the
ST
outside of asbestos-containing material is called a (n):
(ex. If used on soil it would form a hard layer over the soil that would break if disturbed)
Penetrating Encapsulant - ANS The type of encapsulant that is absorbed into the
asbestos matrix, and binds the components together. (n):
(ex. If used on soil it would be absorbed and then form a lump of hardened material)
How far does penetrating encapsulant penetrate? - ANS 13mm (1/2 inch)
, Removal Encapsulant - ANS Penetrating encapsulant specifically designed to
minimize fiber release during removal of asbestos-containing materials rather than for
encapsulation.
Encapsulate - ANS A liquid material which can be applied to asbestos-containing
material which controls the possible release of asbestos fibers from the material either
by creating a membrane over the surface (Bridging encapsulant)
or by penetrating into the material and binding it's components together (Penetrating
K
encapsulant)
C
what is ACBM? - ANS Asbestos Containing Building Material (interior and >1%)
What is ACCM? - ANS Asbestos Containing Construction Material (>0.1%; greater
LO
than one-tenth of one percent by weight)
This is defined by Cal-OSHA
ACCM must be verified by at least... - ANS 400 point count
YC
When a school has friable asbestos they...? - ANS Must implement an Asbestos
Management Plan with yearly notification to any changes in ACM conditions
What is ACM? - ANS Asbestos-containing material is defined as any material
D
containing more than 1% asbestos; >1%.
U
Non-friable Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) is considered hazardous. - ANS
False.
ST
Non-friable asbestos can become friable. - ANS Through Mechanical (power tools)
means during removal.
Non-friable asbestos waste require a DOT manifest. - ANS False.
An EPA ID is not required with non-friable asbestos waste. However proper
documentation is still required.
