“The World’s Best FIV Course!” – ACGIH’s FIV course covers both basic and advanced topics related to industrial ventilation and related calculations.
Natural Occurrences of Asbestos
Clusters of disease have occurred associated with disturbance of asbestos-containing rocks. The appearance of potentially hazardous minerals often comes as a surprise when construction is not taking place in areas of known asbestos mining. Serpentine is so common in California that it is considered the official State rock, but it typically hosts the asbestos mineral chrysotile, and other minerals may also be encountered. Minerals are defined by chemical composition and crystallography. A suite of amphiboles is regulated because they had been mined for asbestos, but other amphibole compositions exist with different names and these can also be problematic. Unrelated minerals also can exist as fibers in dimensions like asbestos. Chrysotile in homes and farms deposited by floodwaters; dam construction involving fibrous glaucophane; road construction through rocks and soils with fibrous actinolite; and erionite, a fibrous zeolite, are used as examples. Lessons in management can be applied to situations encountered elsewhere.
Webinar – A Study of an OSHA Beryllium PEL Exceedance at One Coal Fired Power Plant
While performing personal air monitoring to comply with the new OSHA Beryllium standard in mid-2019, one coal fired power plants actually yielded the quite unexpected finding of Beryllium present at levels above the PEL. The journey of this matter from start to finish poses a very interesting tale, and yields some important lessons learned.
