Thanks, Tony. If there is no professional standards or legal requirements anyone can find for asbestos/lead inspections and abatement reports, I'll put all these good ideas in a file and develop a list myself and try to make it stick through the union.--- This e-mail is from DCHAS-L, the e-mail list of the ACS Division of Chemical Health and Safety.

Subject: Re: [DCHAS-L] What should be in an IH report?
Here is the boilerplate language from one consulting firm for your consideration:
"This assessment and the associated report shall meet the following requirements (at a minimum):
* Exposures will be reported in the appropriate units with applicable limits identified
* Identify employees sampled (name and employee number where available) or notation if it was an area sample
* Indicate where the sample was taken
* Indicate what chemical, physical or biological parameter was sampled
* Define the equipment used to take the sample, including calibration information
* Specify when the sample was taken
* Record the sample duration
* Indicate activities performed during the sampling and identification of chemicals with which the employee worked, if applicable
* Detail observed work practices
* Describe any engineering controls associated with the process;
* Describe any personal protective equipment used by the affected employee(s)
* Provide results of the sample analysis
* Provide exposure results and conclusions from the sampling with reference to applicable OSHA PELs and ACGIH TLVs, along with recommendations
* Approvals and signatures"

Re: What should be in an IH report?
I'd like to start a new thread by asking for help on a subject that has me stymied.
I've been looking at asbestos and lead paint inspection and some are great and other are appalling. The appalling ones don't identify the sampling equipment and methods, don't identify the data units and standards in their charts, don't tell you where the samples were taken from and when (good ones provide pictures and maps), don't provide copies of chain of custody documents, the contractors certifications and more.
I have crawled all over the net and the AIHA site looking for minimum specifications for data to be reported on these various types of reports. NADA. There MUST be some kinds of minimum standards. I did find one set of Wisconsin state regulations that required some of this information, but that's it.
Can anyone provide a list of what these contractors should be required to provide in their reports?
