The intention of the Act was to help protect students and staff in the estimated 35,000 schools where potential exposure to asbestos-containing materials existed. AHERA regulations are still in effect, and the dangers they address still exist. The Act required school districts to identify asbestos-containing building materials on school property, to assess these materials for damage, to create a management plan for each school site containing appropriate responses to any identified hazards, to take action to protect occupants of the sites, and to perform periodic surveillance of asbestos-containing materials.
