In accordance with EPA regulations, you are hereby notified that materials which contain asbestos do exist in South Haven School, and an asbestos management plan has been developed and adopted. This plan is on file in the superintendent’s office and complies with the AHERA mandate requirements for asbestos materials in schools, including the results of inspections, the schedule for periodic surveillance every six months, the schedule for certified reinspection every three years and the schedule of response actions and post-response actions if any friable asbestos containing material was found.
