O&M plans document the presence of regulated materials, training requirements (for operators, janitorial staff, owners, facility managers), signage, inspection authorities, and inspection logs to document compliance with the written plan.
O&M plans are applicable to Asbestos and Lead Based Paint (LBP) when encapsulated, stabilized or otherwise at no to low risk of entering a pathway of potential exposure.
