What is AHERA? -Answer-Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act What is the dose-response relationship with asbestos and cancer? -Answer-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? -Answer-Asbestosis What can a B-reader do? -Answer-Interpret Chest X-rays What type of encapsulation forms a "hard shell" or membrane over the surface? -Answer- Bridging encapsulation What type encapsulation does not leave a discreet surface layer? -Answer-Penetrating encapsulation Bridging Encapsulant -Answer-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) Penetrating Encapsulant -Answer-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? -Answer-13mm (1/2 inch) Removal Encapsulant -Answer-Penetrating encapsulant specifically designed to minimize fiber release during removal of asbestos-containing materials rather than for encapsulation. Encapsulate -Answer-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) what is ACBM? -Answer-Asbestos Containing Building Material (interior and >1%) What is ACCM? -Answer-Asbestos Containing Construction Material (>0.1%; greater than one- tenth of one percent by weight) This is defined by Cal-OSHA ACCM must be verified by at least... -Answer-400 point count When a school has friable asbestos they...? -Answer-Must implement an Asbestos Management Plan with yearly notification to any changes in ACM conditions What is ACM? -Answer-Asbestos-containing material is defined as any material containing more than 1% asbestos; >1%. Non-friable Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) is considered hazardous. -Answer-False. Non-friable asbestos can become friable. -Answer-Through Mechanical (power tools) means during removal. Non-friable asbestos waste require a DOT manifest. -Answer-False. An EPA ID is not required with non-friable asbestos waste. However proper documentation is still required. ACCM waste requires a DOT manifest. -Answer-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. How long does Asbestos stay in the air? -Answer-48-72 hours to set
