AHERA is a federal law enacted in 1987, which requires all school districts

to re-inspect facilities for asbestos-containing building materials.  Our facilities

have been inspected and response actions are planned to ensure a continued

safe environment for our students and employees.  Activities include training

of maintenance staff to prevent disturbance of asbestos and periodic

re-inspection and surveillance activities by trained personnel.

New York State Education Law Section 409-H, effective July 1, 2001, requires

all public and non-public elementary and secondary schools to provide

written notification to all persons in parental relation, faculty and staff

regarding the potential use of pesticides periodically throughout the school

year. The Prattsburgh Central District is required to maintain a list of persons

in parental relations, faculty, and staff who wish to receive 48-hour prior

written notification of certain pesticide applications.
