ASBESTOS MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
ANNUAL NOTIFICATION
OF THE ASBESTOS MANAGEMENT PLAN
2023-2024
In compliance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), enacted in 1986, all schools, public or private, are required to have an inspection of all buildings, for asbestos-containing building materials (ACBM), by accredited asbestos-trained personnel. CFISD facilities have been inspected in 2021, 2022 and 2023 by an environmental consulting firm located in Houston, Texas, which is licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services (TDSHS) to perform asbestos condition assessments of all suspect and identified ACBM. Building materials at each campus/facility were observed to be in undamaged condition and/or present minimal hazards, if any, to building occupants. Periodic surveillance is also conducted semi-annually by CFISD personnel.
AHERA requires that this annual notification be posted and distributed to parents, staff, faculty, PTA, etc. indicating the AHERA Asbestos Management Plan will be available for review upon request. The AHERA Re-inspection report and the AHERA Asbestos Management Plan are on file in the administrative offices. Under federal law, the documents are considered “permanent archives” and may not be removed from the premises under any circumstances. However, these records are available for review, upon request, at any time during normal school hours.
For more information contact Scott Vanderzyden, Director of Maintenance, at
281-897-4292.
A reminder that Sept. 5, Labor Day, is a holiday for
CFISD students and employees. Enjoy the time off!
