Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA)

In compliance with AHERA the Epsom Central School District is required to notify parents, teachers, and all other building occupants that an Asbestos Management Plan is available to them in either the office of each school or in the SAU office. The plan details the location of asbestos in each building and provides a record of inspections, re-inspections, periodic surveillance, and removal of asbestos.

Periodic surveillance of Asbestos Bearing Material (ABM) is conducted by district personnel every six months and a thorough re-inspection of ABM is conducted once every three years by the District’s environmental consultant. The most recent re-inspection was conducted by Desmarais Environmental Inc. in November 2008.

If you require more detailed information, please call the SAU office and they will put you in touch with the District’s designated person for asbestos information.
