ASBESTOS MANAGEMENT AND SAFETY DATA SHEETS
The purpose of this notice is to make certain you are aware of the Asbestos Management Plans and Safety Data Sheets and where these important documents can be located in case of emergency.
Please note that one (1) copy of both the Asbestos Management Plan (AMP) and Safety Data Sheets (SDS) will be maintained in the superintendent’s Office.
Asbestos Management Plan – Description
This document outlines where asbestos containing materials are located in each building, contains district policies pertaining to asbestos management, contains copies of required notifications to persons who may contact any asbestos containing materials, and explains handling of asbestos containing materials and details procedures to follow in case asbestos containing materials are disturbed.
Safety Data Sheets – Description
The document contains federally mandated information about hazardous substances which school personnel, including students, may use and/or come in contact with in a district facility. Each hazardous substance has a sheet which gives the name of the substance, its manufacturer, identification information, physical and chemical characteristics, fire and explosion hazard data, reactivity hazard data, health hazard data, control and protective measures and procedures for safe handling and use, plus procedures to follow in the event of leakage.
NOTE: Interested persons may examine either or both documents at any time by requesting to see them from any district official.
The Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) of 1986 requires school districts to notify community patrons and school building occupants where asbestos containing materials are located.
Vale High School – Asbestos containing materials are found in the following places: the pipe wrappings in the boys’and girls’ locker rooms, in the fan room located on the mezzanine, the present wood and ag shop area, an asbestos shield located within the “fume hood” in the chemistry room, and floor tiles located throughout the original building. Asbestos found in the tiles is not hazardous unless material has been damaged. The asbestos shield is not dangerous unless chipped or broken.
Oregon Trail Learning Center – Asbestos containing material has been identified as the skim coat plaster on the walls of the main entrance stairway up to the main floor. This material is well painted and is not hazardous in its present condition.
The Vale Bus garage is certified asbestos free.
The Vale Middle School has no known asbestos
Vale Elementary School – Asbestos containing materials in floor tiles used as floor surfacing material. Linoleum containing asbestos is used in the old cafeteria and kitchen areas. Asbestos found in the floor surfacing materials is not hazardous unless the material has been damaged or sanded in such a way that asbestos fibers are released into free air. Thermal system insulation (TSI) is found in the crawl spaces under Willowcreek and Vale Elementary buildings, and in the boiler rooms of each of these buildings. Damaged thermal system insulation is found in the
crawl spaces under the Vale Elementary school building. This damaged insulation is not accessible to building occupants; however, as a control measure the district has totally isolated this area from accessibility except in emergency situations. Areas of all buildings where asbestos containing materials are found will be monitored by the designated program manager on a bi-yearly basis in October and April.
In the event of an asbestos contamination emergency created by disturbing materials containing this substance, building occupants and school patrons will be informed of emergency procedures. Building occupants, parents, guardians, and patrons will be notified of any scheduled asbestos containing materials inspections or activities which may disturb the asbestos containing materials.
EPA approved Asbestos Management Plans can be made available for inspection by contacting the Office of the Superintendent, 403 E Street West, Vale, Oregon, or from the asbestos designated person for the district.
Copies of the plan, or portions thereof may be purchased at five cents per page
