The request was successful.

Dear Fircroft College of Adult Education,
This request relates to UK Environmental Legislation, specifically Air Conditioning Inspection Reporting, which is mandatory for UK buildings which are air conditioned above a statutory minimum size.

Q. How many buildings do you occupy which have air conditioning. Provide addresses?
Q. Who is the responsible person for ensuring that your buildings are legally compliant on this mandatory environmental matter? Provide the name, position, address, email address and direct telephone number of the responsible person.
Q. All reports are mandatorily lodged on a Government database. No reports are currently lodged or are out of date, you are therefore non-compliant. Has your Governing Body been made aware of this breach?

Subject: Freedom of Information request - Air Conditioning Inspection
Report Environmental Compliance Audit (commonly known as an ACI TM44)

 

Dear Fircroft College of Adult Education,
This request relates to UK Environmental Legislation, specifically Air
Conditioning Inspection Reporting, which is mandatory for UK buildings
which are air conditioned above a statutory minimum size.

Q. How many buildings do you occupy which have air conditioning. Provide
addresses?  3 buildings on same site, 1018 Bristol Road, Selly Oak,
Birmingham, B29 6LH
Q. Who is the responsible person for ensuring that your buildings are
legally compliant on this mandatory environmental matter? Provide the
name, position, address, email address and direct telephone number of
the responsible person. Andy Gazey, Head of Business Infrastructure,
[2][email address], 0121 415 2502
Q. All reports are mandatorily lodged on a Government database. No
reports are currently lodged or are out of date, you are therefore
non-compliant. Has your Governing Body been made aware of this breach?
We utilise a third party contractor to provide maintenance and to ensure
compliancy. Our buildings will not need a TM44 air con inspection
certificate and report. The criteria for a building that needs a TM44 is
if the building uses over 12kW of cooling (excluding server room units).
I have checked the units that we have and the most they use is 5.3kW
total cooling, and the total for the main building is 11.7kW of cooling.

Q. Provide the name and email address of the ultimate person who has
made the decision to ignore this Environmental Legislation. We are
compliant to current legislation which currently omits us due to the
current amount of cooling units we need for our site. We review this
with our third party provider on an annual basis.
Q. Provide the name and email address of the Board Principal/Director of
the College. Mel Lenehan, Principle & CEO
Q. If you use a Facilities Management Company to manage compliance, who
are they?  Bhamair

Yours faithfully,

Paul Evans
