In residential buildings of four or fewer units if more than 32 square feet of any surface coverage (e.g., gypsum wallboard or drywall and associated applied surfacing materials/textures, acoustic sprays, joint compounds, plaster, etc.), 50 feet of asbestos covered or asbestos insulated pipe or any material which would fill a 55-gallon drum—if these materials are going to be disturbed or removed—an asbestos inspection is required by a state certified asbestos building inspector. For buildings with more than four residential units (considered public), including commercial, public (including public access areas to a residential building), civic or industrial buildings, if more than 160 square feet of surfacing materials, 260 linear feet or more than 35 cubic feet of suspect ACM/ACBM is going to be disturbed, an asbestos inspection is required under NESHAP. County or City regulations may be more stringent. The regulations require an absolute minimum of 3 samples (EPA suggests 9) per homogenous suspect surfacing and TSI materials and an absolute minimum of 1 sample of homogenous miscellaneous materials or any number of “samples sufficient to determine whether a material is ACM” (Reg8.IV.D.3). More samples are required based on surface area or volume. For the contractor to proceed with disturbance, demolition, restoration or remodel/renovation the suspect materials have to be sampled and analyzed by a NVLAP accredited laboratory by polarized light microscopy (PLM) methods. OSHA compliance is required for all employers/employees no matter the quantity of asbestos present. CLIENT BACKGROUND: Forum PHI, LLC hired HealthSafe Inspections, Inc. (hereinafter, HealthSafe) on behalf of the property owners, John & Jessica Fullerton, to perform an asbestos building inspection, bulk sampling and report for an interior remodel and wall changes on the ground floor level which will affect the powder room, kitchen, back entry and mud/laundry room and adjacent closets. This report is limited to those locations in and around this ground floor slated remodel and rooms/walls changes. City of Aspen Received 04/24/17 Building Department 3 VISUAL INSPECTION & LABORATORY FINDINGS: An inspection was conducted by Jim Baker of HealthSafe on Thursday, April 6, 2017 with the homeowners, John & Jessica Fullerton present during the inspection and bulk samples collection. Suspect ACM/ACBM (drywall materials only) were identified and sampled. Those materials are the following: 1. A homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system (classified as a miscellaneous material as a complete integral system) [306-FLT-J-1,2]; these composite layered taped and joint compounded drywall materials are on ceilings and walls of the ground floor areas mentioned above with a flat-finish surfacing material/texture. The estimated surface area is more than 32 sf, but less than 1,000 sf, requiring a minimum of at least two composite core samples of all drywall layers (“…number of samples sufficient to determine” …if asbestos is present or not). The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 2. A homogeneous trowel-applied and sanded flat surfacing material/texture [306- FLT-T-1,2,3]. This surfacing material/texture is on ceilings and walls of those ground-floor areas mentioned above. The estimated surface area is more than 32 sf, but less than 1,000 sf, requiring a minimum of at least three surfacing/texture material samples. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. Hallway, powder room at end of hallway and kitchen partition wall on right. City of Aspen Received 04/24/17 Building Department 4 Kitchen wall, opposite hallway to powder room. Kitchen doorway to back mud room/entry. Below, mud, back entry with laundry/closet. City of Aspen Received 04/24/17 Building Department 5 Mud/laundry/closet looking east, opposite kitchen to right. Broom/pantry closet accessed in back entry/mud room. There were no other additional suspect asbestos building materials to sample which were slated to be disturbed, removed or disposed of in this kitchen, powder, mud entry remodel. A total of 5 suspect homogeneous ACM/ACBM bulk samples were collected and 5 samples were analyzed. The bulk samples were analyzed by PLM by a NVLAP accredited laboratory in accordance with Colorado State Regulation 8 for the presence of asbestos mineral fibers. There is NO asbestos in all 5 samples analyzed. See supporting Hayes Microbial Consulting, Inc. data report #17009125. City of Aspen Received 04/24/17 Building Department 6 HEALTHSAFE CONCLUSIONS: There is NO asbestos in any of the suspect building materials (specifically, the drywall materials) slated to be impacted by the interior ground-floor remodel/renovation. NO asbestos abatement will be required. All building materials needing to be removed or disturbed can be dealt with without the concerns for asbestos fibers. All building waste and debris can be disposed of in any landfill which accepts normal, non-hazardous building waste.

The Report must not be used by the client to claim product certification, approval, or endorsement by: AIHA, NIST, NVLAP NY ELAP, or any agency. The results relate only to the items tested. The results include an inherent uncertainty of measurement associated with estimating percentages by polarized light microscopy. Measurement uncertainty data can be provided when requested. None detected: Below the detected reporting limit of 1% unless point counting is performed, then the detected, reporting limit is .25%. Per NY ELAP198.6 (NOB) TEM is the only reliable method to declare an NOB material as Non-Asbestos Containing.
