(b) For purposes of air monitoring, the operating agency for each public school building in which friable asbestos-containing materials (other than pipe and block insulation or materials to be abated during rehabilitation or reconstruction projects as specified in subdivision (a)) have been identified shall monitor airborne asbestos levels in each sampling area. Each sampling area in which asbestos-containing materials have been identified shall be monitored for at least eight hours during a period of normal building activity. Analysis of samples shall be by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) methods, in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency provisional method and update, to measure the number of observable asbestos fibers. The results of this monitoring shall be recorded in terms of the number of visible fibers greater than 1 micron in length per cubic centimeter of air (f/cc) in accord with standard definitions for asbestos monitoring established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. "Sampling area," as used in this section, means any area, whether contiguous or not, within a building that contains friable material that is homogenous in texture and appearance.
