(a)
Effect on morale of abatement-related personnel relocation.
(b)
Effect of the notification of the need for abatement action on the
morale of those individuals who occupy the space. Any abatement action will alert them to the
fact that they had been working in a space determined as a high health risk environment.
(3)
Miscellaneous considerations.
(a)
Effects of flooding, wind, and fire damage on ACM integrity.
(b)
Climatological restrictions of abatements (amended water can
freeze, thus making spraying impossible).
(c)
Geographical restrictions on abatements (OCONUS facilities may
have special problems).
(d)
Problems with functional spaces that are controlled areas.
Unauthorized access and potential compromise of classified
materials in high security areas.
Pilferage in a warehouse.
Existence of ignition sources (e.g., smoking, non-explosion
proof electrical equipment) in or near combustible material
storage areas, associated with asbestos abatement workers.
(e)
Special facility use (childcare centers and hospitals).
(4)
Determination of the appropriate option (i.e., abatement or special O&M)
for each situation ultimately depends on the experienced professional judgment of the members
of the AMT who are charged with this responsibility.
b.
Internal discussion and review among members of the AMT are encouraged to
ensure that all relevant factors are considered in assessing the potential for release of asbestos
from ACM.
