Which of the following is NOT listed as a type of asbestos survey in AHERA contexts?

• A. AHERA school
• B. Renovation activities
• C. Purchase / sale of property
• D. Air quality assessment

Answer: (D)

AHERA surveys are focused on locating asbestos-containing materials in schools so they can be managed or addressed during renovations or property transactions. The types typically recognized are the standard AHERA school survey, a survey conducted before renovation activities to identify asbestos that could be disturbed, and surveys associated with the purchase or sale of a property to disclose asbestos hazards. An air quality assessment isn’t listed as an AHERA survey type because AHERA centers on finding and documenting asbestos-containing materials, not conducting general air quality evaluations. Air sampling might occur during abatement to ensure fiber levels are controlled, but that activity isn’t itself an AHERA survey category.
