1 Re-Start of Asbestos Tracking Initiative in FAMIS 10 October 2012 University of Connecticut 1

2 Introductions 2

3 Asbestos Management Solutions University of Connecticut UITS – FAMIS Team 3

4 The Steps to Asbestos Management 1. Understand the Problem (SDLC = Analysis) 2. Develop a Solution (SDLC = Design) 3. Implement the Solution (SDLC = Construction) 4

5 To Understand any IT Opportunity we need to answer: Who? What? When? Where? Why? 5

6 Understand the Opportunity – Why?  Keep workers healthy and safe in regards to asbestos exposure  Keep University students, faculty, staff and visitors healthy and safe in regards to asbestos exposure  Avoid Litigation  Proper Planning  Fiscal  Resource 6

7 Understand the Problem – What? Asbestos Containing Materials Data CollectionManagementInterpretationUtilization 7

8 Understand the Problem – What?  Projects to generate Asbestos Inspection Reports  Systematic & Planned  Thorough investigation and sampling of organized areas (e.g., Floriculture Greenhouse) Collection Known: + Currently Managed at AEBS + Multiple Vendors + Multiple Collection Formats Known: + Currently Managed at AEBS + Multiple Vendors + Multiple Collection Formats 8

9 Understand the Problem – What? Collection Descriptive Text ACM Bulk Sample Summary ACM Bulk Sample Results Recommendations Vendor Qualifications Drawings 9

10 Understand the Problem – What? Once collected: o data needs to be stored o data needs to be kept up to date o data needs to be accessible Management Known: + Excel spreadsheets in protected directory on AEBS Server + Known: + Excel spreadsheets in protected directory on AEBS Server + 10

11 Understand the Problem – What?  Expertise is required to properly interpret and understand the Inspections Results Interpretation Known: + Who currently interprets the data Known: + Who currently interprets the data 11

12 Understand the Problem – What?  Stakeholders throughout the campus need to utilize the interpreted results for various tasks Utilization Known: + Facilities Operations needs to check for presence of Asbestos and perform work accordingly + Outside contractors need to check for presence of Asbestos and perform work accordingly Known: + Facilities Operations needs to check for presence of Asbestos and perform work accordingly + Outside contractors need to check for presence of Asbestos and perform work accordingly 12

13 Understand the Problem – Who? 13

14 Understand the Problem – Who? 14

15 Environmental Health Safety Understand the Problem – Who? Teresa Dominguez, Environmental Health & Safety Policy (Describe Role) Valerie Brangan, Occupational Health & Safety (Asbestos) (Describe Role) Provides information to the University administration to support decisions on the asbestos management program. Conducts Asbestos Awareness (Class IV) training. Provides expertise and guidance to departments to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements and university policy. Recommends appropriate response actions to control or eliminate potential hazards. Initiates asbestos abatement projects arising from health and safety hazards and emergencies. Audits asbestos abatement projects and consultant activities, as necessary. Conducts asbestos inspections for health and safety purposes. Along with AEBS, maintains historical files of all inspections, bulk sampling and abatement projects for all University buildings. Communicates with regulatory agencies, as needed, as well as with University Communications, the Division of Public and Environmental Safety, and the community at large. Audits programs overseen by Asbestos Coordinators. Develops and maintains the University’s Asbestos Management Plan. Sends an annual notice to Deans, Directors, Department heads, and Administrative Assistants informing them of the presence of asbestos at UCONN and the procedures that must be followed when renovations are planned. 15

16 Understand the Problem – Who? Asbestos Coordinators Act as Competent Persons to any employees in their department who have been designated and trained to conduct Class III asbestos activities. Procures services of licensed abatement contractors and consultants for projects involving disturbance/removal of ACM, as necessary. Oversees asbestos abatement projects, and contractor and consultant activities. Determines the presence and location of ACM prior to initiating activities that could disturb building materials through the review of inspection reports in the asbestos inspection report database. Procures aid of outside licensed inspectors when more sampling/inspection is needed. Forwards asbestos sampling results to the AEBS Asbestos Coordinator and to EH&S. Provides written disclosure of the presence of ACM and PACM to outside contractors. Distributes the Contractor EHS Manual and the Asbestos Certification Form (Appendix E) to contractors and receives the appropriate signatures prior to the start of the project. Notifies EH&S of all asbestos projects (utilizing the AMN and APN forms in Appendices A & B) Provides notification to each departmental Building and Emergency Contact (BEC) within a building of impending asbestos abatements. Secures and stores waste materials according to state and federal regulations. Arranges for waste disposal to approved landfills from Class III work activities. Notifies EH&S in cases of asbestos emergencies during normal work hours (486-3613). Notifies the Public Safety Communication Center in cases of asbestos emergencies at night or on weekends (486- 4800). Schedules training, medical surveillance, and personal air monitoring for employees, as appropriate. AEBS Asbestos Coordinator ensures the integration of up-to-date asbestos data into the asbestos inspection report database. 16

38 Understand the Problem – Where? 38

39 Understand the Problem – Where? 39

40 Understand the Problem – Where? To Do: Are any communications related to Asbestos Containing Materials ever done with email? (Most things are so this might be a safe assumption) 40

41 Understand the Problem – Where? 41

42 Next Steps  Continue to Understand the Problem (Collect Requirements) (SDLC = Analysis)  Develop a Solution (SDLC = Design)  Implement the Solution (SDLC = Construction) Jumping Ahead… 42
