More Definitions of Clearance air sampling

Clearance air sampling means air-sampling performed by an accredited project monitor after the completion of any asbestos abatement and asbestos response activities and prior to the reoccupation of the contained work area by the public and conducted for the purpose of protecting the public from the health hazards associated with exposure to friable asbestos- containing material. Clearance samples collected for re-occupancy of schools and public and commercial buildings are required to be analyzed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) by laboratories accredited by the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP).
