As stated in paragraph B-3, suggested ACM checklists are provided in two parts
in appendix C. Use these checklists for assigning risk and exposure numbers. Using the
numbers derived from the checklists, enter the matrix in table B-1 and find the corresponding
assessment index. Then refer to table B-2 for definition of assessment index. For example,
using table B-1, if the damage/risk potential is 25 and the exposure potential is nine, then the
assessment index would be A. This would correspond to an immediate action from the
information obtained in table B-2. The higher risk and exposure numbers and assessment index
letters should be used only if there is a high probability of personnel exposure. The assessment
scheme in the checklists is identical to the algorithm shown and discussed, with a few
exceptions. The weighted numerical values corresponding to assessment choices in the
algorithm do not appear in the checklists and some of the line items contain additional
assessment choices. Management planners who want to prioritize functional spaces and, in turn,
facilities, based upon a numerical score ranking, should use the values for the assessment choices
given and the procedures discussed. In the future, management planners may use a database
management system.
i.
Once a checklist has been completed for every functional space within a facility,
an AHERA-accredited management planner will compile and process the information. This
information will allow the management planner to document and/or confirm the existence of
homogenous areas of ACM and prioritize the facility in terms of its asbestos hazards relative to
other facilities at an installation.
j.
The following asbestos report format should be used:
(1)
Survey introduction, general summary of findings, and recommendations.
(2)
Individual building information should include the following:
(a)
Army ACM Checklist for each functional area and homogenous
material.
(b)
Description of building use, summary of findings, and
recommendations.
(c)
Building diagrams showing sample locations with photographs of
the sample locations.
