The Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act of 1986 (AHERA) mandated that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop an accreditation program to increase and standardize requirements for labs testing for analysis of asbestos samples. Those labs are licensed under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP).
