Asbestos Management Planner
Certified asbestos management planning, operations and maintenance (O&M) program development, and long term compliance support for building owners across Northeast Ohio.
EPA AHERA requires all schools to have an asbestos management plan and conduct periodic inspections and reinspections of ACM.
OSHA requires building owners to establish operations and maintenance (O&M) programs to protect workers who may disturb asbestos-containing materials during routine maintenance.
Ohio EPA regulations require certified asbestos management planners for the development of compliant asbestos management plans.
Properly managed ACM that is in good condition and undisturbed poses minimal risk. A management plan keeps it that way.
Manage Asbestos Safely Over the Long Term
When asbestos-containing materials (ACM) are identified in a building, removal is not always the immediate answer. ACM that is in good condition and left undisturbed can often be safely managed in place through a properly developed asbestos management plan.
SoCretely certified asbestos management planners develop written plans, operations and maintenance (O&M) programs, and compliance documentation that protect building occupants, workers, and owners while meeting all applicable regulatory requirements.

When a Management Plan Is Required
EPA AHERA requires all public and private schools to maintain a written asbestos management plan and conduct periodic inspections of ACM. Many commercial building owners also have obligations under OSHA to establish operations and maintenance (O&M) programs.
A management plan is also a best practice for any building owner who has identified ACM and wants a documented strategy for keeping occupants and maintenance workers safe over time.
SoCretely works with schools, commercial property owners, and facility managers to develop plans that are practical, compliant, and easy to maintain.

Our Planning Process
Building Assessment Review
We review existing asbestos inspection reports and building documentation to understand the scope and location of all identified asbestos-containing materials.
