The Department of Environment and Conservation proposed amendments to Tenn. Comp R. & Regs. 1200-01-20, Asbestos Accreditation Requirements. These new rules would apply to persons and firms that engage in asbestos activities and to providers of accredited training courses. The rules would establish an application process for initial accreditation and reaccreditation for persons, firms, and training providers; an audit process of training providers regarding training coursers and applicable records; define initial and refresher training curriculum requirements; establish work practice standards that an accredited person and/or firm conducting asbestos activities shall comply with in each of the specific disciplines; and set an accreditation fee schedule for persons, firms, and training providers. http://www.tn.gov/sos/rules_filings/04-03-09.pdf.
