Indoor Air Quality
Practices and Procedures
On an on-going basis, Facilities Technicians inspect all schools and district facilities for signs of mold.
What happens when signs of mold are found?
- If signs of mold are found, remediation is accomplished by trained professionals.
-
- Remediation means the removal of contaminant for the general protection of human health.
- During the remediation process the affected area has a containment built around them which is kept under negative pressure, so that no other areas of the building or its occupants are exposed to mold spores.
- During the demolition of the affected area all debris is placed in sealed bags and taken to an approved dump site. Debris is never disposed of on our property.
- After demolition of affected areas, a third party vendor does air quality tests for mold spores inside the containment areas to insure all mold has been removed.
- Once the third party vendor receives the lab analysis showing negative results for airborne mold spores the containments are taken down so final work can begin.
