Separate board is checking
for asbestos in the schoois.
Oke
DUBLIN-4he Huron -Perth
County Rom -an Catholic
Seaprate School Board is
grappling with problem of
asbestos. It is checking to see
whether or.not there are fibres
circulating in the air in any of
the 19 schools in the system.
According to William
Eckert, director, of education,
the Ministry of Education did
not give any guidelines, but
ordered the board to assess
the potential for asbestos fibre
release into the environment
at each school.
The directqr said td date
three schools have been
Checked andihe other 16 will
be looked at, lle said the -check
has been visual and samples
have been sept for assessment
of asbestos ontent.
Edward, .Rowland, coor-
dinator.. of plaht and assess-
ment, explained to board
members the samples were of
ceiling tiles. "We don't know.
how much asbestos is in our
ceiling tiles or if the asbestos
is sealed or how much is
escaping."
Mr. Rowland said he had
tried to get someone to take
air samples in the schools, but
couldn't find anyone to do the
testing for asbestoslibre.s. He
said the ministry has not
asked the board to take air
samples. He reported •the
ceiling"' tiles were,cheeked to
see whether they are flaky or
loose.
Mr. Eckert said the three
schools tested were Our Lady
of Mount Carmel, Dashwood;.
St. • Columban and. St.
Boniface, Zurith.
The board considered
whether a sealant should be
applied to areas in the schools
where asbestos is exposed or if
it, should retain an"... ar-
chitectural firm to identify
and assess tie extent of any
other asbestos hazards which
might exist in the schools and
to prepare recommendations
for correcting thew .
Trustee Tim McDonnell
asked whether the trustees
and staff could not do the
testing themselves and save a
great deal of money. Mr.
Eckert agreed it would, save
money, but pointed out, "We
are not experts in these
matters."
It was estimated that siiray,
painting the tiles to seal in
asbestos fibresin the three'
\ schools would 'cost $11,500.
However Mr. Rowland ex-
plained that painting the tiles
would destroy their acoustic
and fir retardant properties.
The fire rearshall's office
. would have to check any
painted tiles to determine ,
whether the school could keep
its fire rating. ,
Trustee Keith Montgomery
of Wingham said he would like
to see. all 19 schools checked.
"I'd like to know about them
all." John • O'Lea'ry of Strat-
ford inquired •how big the
'problem appears to be.
Mr. Rowland said in „their
testing the architects are
going behind regiSters, hot air
vents, furnaces and ceiling
tiles. He said if asbestos is.
• found- in the schools, it is
dangerous.'
Mi. Eckert reported the
University of Western Ontario •
had offered testers to go over
the schools at a reasonable .
cost,' -however . the. board
members wondered whether
the architects mighf offer a
better solution .• In the end it
was left up to the building
committee to come up with a
solution:
Mr. Eckert said the schools
would be examined and the,
results,, as well as recom-
mendations and cost
estimates, made available.
Then the board could decide
what course to follow and
apply to the ministry • for
grants to help cover costs.
In other business, the board
will be opening a summer
school for students who need
special education services. It
will be held at St. Patrick's
