Which step occurs after the preliminary visual inspection in the abatement process?

The step being tested is the completion verification stage that comes after the initial assessment of the space. After the preliminary visual inspection identifies the hazards and defines the scope, the abatement work proceeds, followed by cleaning to remove dust and debris. Then, if required, air clearance testing checks that dust levels meet standards, and any necessary re-cleaning is performed. The final visual inspection is the last check, confirming visually that all surfaces are clean, no debris remains, and the space is ready for occupancy. This visual check at the end ensures that the entire process produced a visibly clean and safe area, which is why it comes after the preliminary visual inspection.
