Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act
What is AHERA?
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 dose-response relationship with asbestos and cancer?
Asbestosis
What is the most common asbestos related disease?
Interpret Chest X-rays
What can a B-reader do?
Bridging encapsulation
What type of encapsulation forms a "hard shell" or membrane over the surface?
Penetrating encapsulation
What type encapsulation does not leave a discreet surface layer?
The type of encapsulation that forms a hard shell on the 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)
Bridging Encapsulant
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)
Penetrating Encapsulant
13mm (1/2 inch)
How far does penetrating encapsulant penetrate?
Penetrating encapsulant specifically designed to minimize fiber release during removal
of asbestos-containing materials rather than for encapsulation.
Removal Encapsulant
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
encapsulant)
Encapsulate
Asbestos Containing Building Material (interior and >1%)
what is ACBM?
Asbestos Containing Construction Material (>0.1%; greater than one-tenth of one
percent by weight)
This is defined by Cal-OSHA

What is ACCM?
400 point count
ACCM must be verified by at least...
Must implement an Asbestos Management Plan with yearly notification to any changes
in ACM conditions
When a school has friable asbestos they...?
Asbestos-containing material is defined as any material containing more than 1%
asbestos; >1%.
What is ACM?
False.
Non-friable Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) is considered hazardous.
Through Mechanical (power tools) means during removal.
Non-friable asbestos can become friable.
False.
An EPA ID is not required with non-friable asbestos waste. However proper
documentation is still required.
Non-friable asbestos waste require a DOT manifest.
False. Although, it can be hauled with general demolition debris the receiving waste
facility should be notified prior to receiving waste in order to properly secure the waste.
ACCM waste requires a DOT manifest.
48-72 hours to settle.
