In accordance with Section 763.84 of the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), or the “Asbestos in Schools Rule,” Carman-Ainsworth Community Schools is notifying employees and building occupants, or their legal guardians, of activities conducted within the past school year involving the asbestos inspections, response actions, and post-response action activities, including periodic re-inspection and periodic surveillance activities, that are planned or in progress at School District facilities.
During the upcoming school year (the “2024 – 2025 School Year” – August 2024 through July 2025), Carman-Ainsworth Community Schools has planned the following activities related to asbestos-containing materials throughout the School District:
• Six Month Periodic Surveillances: Six-month periodic surveillances will be completed every six months and continue on a regular six-month schedule (next two scheduled rounds will occur in January and July of 2025).
• Three Year Re-inspections: The EPA requires that each school district re-inspect all known and assumed asbestos-containing materials once every three years. The three-year re-inspection activities for all Carman-Ainsworth Community Schools facilities were completed in July 2022. Therefore, the next three-year re-inspections are due in the summer of 2025.
