A summary of t.ne System results is snown as Appendix A. It was not necessary to confirm the asbestos witn a ou.< sample test as part o: tre survey, ncwever, a number of companies ~ave performed this testing. As part of the steps required for compliance with the asoestcs star.oar:. it will be necessary 1 m eac.n facility identified as apparently raving sprayed-on asbestos) to perform a bulk sample test for confirmation trat tne mater laL is or is not asbestos. If the test indicates asbestos, :nan an ambient air test must a.so be performed. Such ambient air tests wi.l determine the level of- airborne asoestos in the area on an 3-r.r TWA oasis. The ambient air tests should be made in areas where the asoestos exists and is in an undisturbed state, i.e., no one is working on tne asbestos. If the material exists tnroughout the building, several typical locations should be identified and an ambient air test mace :r each locacion. It is extremely important tnat the ambient samples as well as che bulk be analysed ov Qualified laboratories approved by NIOSH. See SR co be issued s.nortly, "Occupational health and Satetv Exposure to Airborne Asoestcs fibers," for a discussion of bulk samp.a and ambient air sample testing.
