1.0- This was an inspection for suspect ACM (Asbestos Containing Material) for a remodel.
Element Environmental conducted a visible inspection for visible materials that would
be impacted during the remodel. This inspection was limited to the areas found in the
Description of the Sampling Area 7.0. Although sampling is destructive in nature, this
was a non-invasive inspection. It was of materials that were accessible. If other suspect
materials become visible/apparent during demolition or construction activities, work in
that area should be halted and more sampling/testing must take place, per Colorado
regulations. Any suspect materials that were not tested are to be assumed to contain
asbestos.
2.0- A limited bulk sampling of from all suspect materials was conducted in accordance with
Colorado State Requirements. The minimum number of samples per homogenous areas
are as follows:
2.1- Surfacing Materials- <1,000 sq.ft.- Minimum of 3 samples
1,000 sq.ft.- 5,000sq.ft.- Minimum of 5 samples
>5,000 sq.ft. Minimum of 7 samples
2.2- Miscellaneous materials- Minimum of 2 samples
2.3- Thermal Systems Insulation (TSI)- Minimum of 3 samples
3.0- The purpose of the inspection is to identify materials that are homogenous. A
homogeneous area is defined as one which shares suspect material, texture, color,
location, and/or apparent time of construction. The materials are segregated into
separate homogenous areas. The size is determined and then samples are taken. The
materials are touched to determine friability. Friable ACM is material that can be
crushed or reduced to powder by hand pressure. The samples are taken in a random
numerical sequence.
4.0- Ellen Johnson, a Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment certified building
inspector, certification number: 23799, performed the inspection. The findings were
reviewed by Josh Johnson, a Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment
certified building inspector, certification number: 18401. Samples taken were sent to
CEI Labs in Cary, North Carolina. The samples were analyzed by PLM (Polarized Light
Microscopy) analysis. Per the CDPHE Regulation any sample that is found by a lab to be
trace, or <1% asbestos, is considered to be ACM material. This material would still be a
regulated material by CDPHE. The sample must have an additional “point count”
performed to be considered less than 1% and not be regulated by the CDPHE. The lab’s
documents with analyses and findings are found below.

7.0- DESCRIPTION OF SAMPLING AREA
• Samples of the Acoustic Ceiling Texture were taken throughout the condo.
• Samples of the Light Roll Texture on the walls were taken in the Hall, Bedrooms and
Kitchen in the areas to be remodeled. The doorways throughout the condo are to be
enlarged and the soffit areas of the kitchen are to be removed.

8.0- CONCLUSION
The areas on the table in Red contained asbestos:
• The Acoustic Ceiling Texture throughout the Condo
• The Light Roll Wall Texture in the doorway areas to be remodeled including the Hall,
Bathroom and Bedrooms. The Soffit area of the Kitchen is also included.
These materials become friable when they are removed. If these materials are to be disturbed or removed, the
materials MUST be remediated in accordance with the CDPHE Regulation No. 8 by a licensed abatement
contractor. For residential projects over 32 square feet of surfacing material, 50 linear feet of pipe insulation, or 55
gallon drum of waste; and for commercial projects with 160 square feet of surfacing material, 260 linear feet of
pipe insulation, or a 55 gallon drum of waste, a permit is required. The permit is through the CDPHE. Along with
the permit, a final air clearance is required by a certified Air Monitoring Specialist. For projects over 3,000 square
feet, a Project Design and Project Manager is required. Element Environmental is certified and can perform Final
Clearances, Project Design, and Project Management if required. All work performed MUST follow all EPA, State
Regulation 8, and OSHA regulations to protect the general public, the client, and the workers.
