42、gnificance and Use4.1 Management of asbestos-containing materials in build-ings and facilities requires knowledge of the location, type,quantity, and condition of the material. The more complete andaccurate the information available, the more appropriate andcost-effective are the control measures us

43、ed to reduce possibleexposure to airborne asbestos fibers. This is true whether theasbestos-containing materials remain undisturbed and com-pletely intact, are selectively removed for maintenance or priorto renovation, or are removed to the greatest extent feasiblebefore demolishing the building or

44、facility.4.2 This practice describes three types of surveys thatsupport different objectives. These are the Baseline Survey, theProject Design Survey, and the Pre-Construction Survey.4.2.1 The Baseline Survey is a building-wide or facility-wide inspection that provides a general sense of the overall

45、location, type, quantity, and condition of asbestos-containingmaterials present. It is thorough in that most accessiblefunctional spaces are inspected and bulk samples taken ofsuspect materials observed. The baseline survey providesinformation for long-term management of asbestos-containingmaterials

46、 and prioritization of response actions. The presenceof asbestos in suspect materials may be assumed or presumedin some cases without bulk samples being taken or analyzed.However, the baseline survey is unobtrusive in that samples arenot taken where doing so would result in objectionable damageto su

47、rfaces or where institutional barriers preclude access. In abaseline survey, destructive testing is avoided. Posting of signsand labels required for compliance with OSHA regulationswould use the information generated during a Baseline Survey.NOTE 1A Baseline Survey is sometimes called an “AHERA” sur

48、veybecause it provides the type of information used for management ofasbestos-containing materials in schools. However, the baseline surveydescribed in this practice requires inspection, bulk sampling, quantifica-tion, and assessment of suspect materials that are excluded by virtue oftheir type and

49、location from the AHERA regulations for schools.NOTE 2Suspect material subject to disturbance by planned or emer-gency maintenance may not always be identified as to asbestos content ina Baseline Survey. Collecting a single bulk sample, or a small number ofsamples, to determine if the material contains asbestos does not constitutea survey within the meaning of this practice. Nonetheless, the sample(s)E2356 093should be collected in accordance with the methods described inAppendixX1 (this must be done by a properly-credentialed individual)
