Surveys for Asbestos of All State-Owned Buildings and All Public Schools: Report of the Department of General Services to the Governor and the General Assembly of Virginia. Senate Document No. 27.
Virginia State Dept. of General Services, Richmond.
Addressed to the members of the general assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia, this report summarizes the surveys for asbestos of all state-owned buildings and all public schools as required by state code. The survey of state-owned buildings was carried out by a consulting firm. Over 5,900 buildings were surveyed, representing approximately 65 million square feet of space. Excerpts of the report contain the executive summary; composite cost estimates for removal of friable asbestos-containing materials; and a priority ranking into one of four levels for all areas based on the exposure potential value. The survey of public schools was carried out following the requirements of the Federal Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA). The report identifies all friable and nonfriable asbestos-containing building materials, rates their potential risk to human health, and includes estimated costs of asbestos removal. A total of 1,024 schools, which includes 3,283 buildings, were included in the survey. (MLF)
