CLIENT BACKGROUND The Client, Mission Peak Capital, LLC., hired HealthSafe Inspections, Inc. (hereinafter, HealthSafe) to perform an asbestos inspection for the commercial office suite dubbed C7. The Client is under contract to purchase the above addressed office suite. During the inspection period, the request was made to identify asbestos containing materials in the suite in the event they became the owners and decided to gut the office space and relocate interior walls and replace flooring and ceiling materials, among other renovations and updates. 2 This asbestos report is specific to the interior building materials of the C7 office space dubbed C7. Suspect ceiling, wall and flooring materials were identified and sampled. This inspector did his best to identify homogeneous materials without destroying the current offices. Ceiling panels and openings were random to identify possible materials above the current ceilings. Flooring materials were lifted up in random areas to verify the subfloor and possible other flooring materials covered with carpeting. Note: this report is not intended for estimating purposes. Measurements provided in this report are for the sole purpose of determining numbers of samples required per suspect material. Contractors or subcontractors will have to do their own surveys and inspections for their own estimating. VISUAL INSPECTION & LABORATORY FINDINGS An inspection was conducted by Jim Baker of HealthSafe on June 27 and a second inspection on July 3, 2018 with the Client representative, Elias Vock present during the inspection and sample collecting. Suspect ACM/ACBM were identified and sampled within the C7 suite of offices. Samples of each homogeneous miscellaneous materials were collected in opposite diagonal corners or opposite sections or rooms; in the case of surfacing materials, samples were collected randomly—considering different sections of walls and ceilings and different rooms or locations where each homogeneous material was applied. No two samples were collected next to the other. This inspector did his best to get a broad representative of each homogeneous miscellaneous and surfacing material without bias of locations. Those materials collected and analyzed by PLM analysis are the following: 1. East-West Oriented Hallway Ceiling Acoustic “Popcorn” Surfacing Material/Texture: a homogeneous spray-applied ceiling surfacing material/texture: [samples 1 & 2 Hayes report #18020263 (C7-PC-T-1,2) and sample 4 Hayes report #18021188 (HLWY-3)]. This acoustic “popcorn” ceiling surfacing material/texture is only visible on two small sections of the east-west oriented hallway ceiling where two light fixtures had been removed. The estimated surface area is less than 10 sf, requiring a minimum of at least three surfacing/texture material samples. The EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 2. Northeast Offices & Internet-Telephone Mechanical Closet Ceiling Acoustic “Popcorn” Surfacing Material/Texture: a homogeneous spray-applied ceiling surfacing material/texture [sample 3 Hayes Report #18020263 (C7-PC-T3) and samples 1-3 Hayes Report #18021188 (PC-OFC-1,2,3)]. This acoustic “popcorn” ceiling surfacing material/texture is on the ceilings of the three northeast office ceilings and the closet housing the internet-telephone lines. The estimated surface area is more than 10 sf, but less than 1,000 sf (380 sf), requiring a minimum of at least three surfacing/texture material samples. Four samples were collected, one in suite 24, two in suite 20 and one in the mechanical internet-telephone closet. The EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: 2% Chrysotile asbestos in 3 the mechanical closet and 3% Chrysotile asbestos in the two northeast offices of #20 and #24. There is evidence that the NE suite #1 had the same acoustic “popcorn” surfacing material, but it was scraped off at some point and roughly covered with “skip-trowel” texture. It is assumed to have remnants of the same 3% Chrysotile asbestos. This ceiling surfacing material is classified as friable ACM in good condition in offices #20 and #24, AHERA category #3 “Significantly damaged friable surfacing ACM” in the internet-telephone mechanical room with some water damage and rough-cut penetrations for telephone cables and the same for office #1 due to the previously scraped-off acoustic surfacing ACM. This ACM shall require asbestos abatement if further disturbed. The top four photos are of the mechanical room, the bottom two of the office 20 & 24 4 Note the ACM overspray onto electrical conduits, wiring, plumbing and framing which shall all require abatement, if disturbance or changes occur. 3. Suite C7 Joint Compound: a homogeneous miscellaneous seam taping compound requiring at least two samples [samples 4-5: C7-JC-1,2]. Sample 4 was taken from the north wall of the mechanical closet and sample 5 from the northwest office #4 east wall opposite the door. The PLM analytical results: NONE DETECTED. 4. Orange Peel Surfacing Material/Texture: a homogeneous spray-applied surfacing material/texture [samples 6-12: C7-OP-T-1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. This surfacing material/texture is on most ceilings and all walls of the C7 office suite. The estimated surface area is more than 5,000 sf, requiring a minimum of at least seven surfacing/texture material samples. The EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. The sampling locations were chosen by the AHERA statistically random grid #18 with the following orientation: 5. Gypsum Wallboard/Drywall System: a homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system with gypsum wallboard panels, trowel-applied joint compound and tape (classified as a miscellaneous material as a complete integral system) [samples 13-14: C7-C/W-J-1,2]; these composite layered taped and joint compounded drywall materials are on ceilings and walls of the C7 suite with a predominant surfacing material/texture known as “orange peel“ and secondarily on certain offices, mechanical closet and hallway with “popcorn” surfacing material. The estimated surface area of the total drywall system is more than 5,000 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 EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: <1% Chrysotile asbestos in the joint compound with composite results of <0.25%. Sample 13 was taken from the southeast corner of the mechanical internet- telephone closet and sample 14 from the office #1 south wall. This drywall system in suite C7--with the exception of the locations with friable acoustic “popcorn” surfacing material—is not classified as friable ACM at less than 1%. However, since asbestos fibers are present throughout the C7 suite in joint compound, any disturbance or removal and disposal shall require the adherence to OSHA regulations regarding OSHA Class II Asbestos Work. 5 6. Northeast Office #1 Skip-Trowel Surfacing Material/Texture: a homogeneous trowel-applied surfacing material/texture [samples 15-17: C7-ST-C-T-1,2,3]. This surfacing material/texture is on the ceiling of the NE office #1. The estimated surface area is more than 10 sf, but less than 1,000 sf (130 sf), requiring a minimum of at least three surfacing/texture material samples. The EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. NOTE: although the applied skip-trowel surfacing material is not classified as ACM, the ceiling still has visible remnants of the scraped of ACM acoustic “popcorn”. The ceiling and any overspray shall require asbestos abatement if it is disturbed or removed and disposed of. 7. C7 Suite Wallpaper: a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at least two samples [samples 18-22: C7-WP-1,2,3,4,5]. Due to this wallpaper being adhered to suspect ACM applied surfacing material in the common hallways, 5 samples were required with a surfacing area of 1,800 sf. The EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. There were no other additional suspect asbestos building materials to sample in the C7 office suite. A total of 26 suspect homogeneous ACM/ACBM bulk samples were collected and 26 samples were analyzed. The bulk samples were analyzed by EPA 600 PLM analytical methods by a NVLAP accredited laboratory in accordance with Colorado State Regulation 8 for the presence of asbestos mineral fibers. See supporting Hayes Microbial Consulting, Inc. data reports #18020263 and #18021188. HEALTHSAFE CONCLUSIONS • The ceiling acoustic “popcorn” surfacing material in offices 1, 20, 24 and the mechanical internet-telephone closet + overspray is classified as friable ACM and shall require a CDPHE permitted asbestos abatement using a CDPHE certified asbestos abatement firm if the material is disturbed or removed and disposed of. • The entire drywall system in office suite C7 has Chrysotile asbestos in the joint compound, even though not detected in the specific joint compound samples, but rather the composite samples. This is colloquially called “OSHA drywall” as it is classified as OSHA Class II Asbestos Work when this material is disturbed, removed and disposed of. These regulations shall be adhered to if the drywall materials other than the ceiling acoustic popcorn ACM—requiring abatement—is disturbed, removed and/or disposed of. See EPA 40 CFR 763.121 Worker Protection Rule, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 Respirator Protection Standard, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1001 General Industry Standard and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101 Construction Standard regulations when dealing with asbestos hazards. Sincerely Submitted, Jim Baker 6 COLORADO & FEDERAL ASBESTOS REGULATIONS SUMMARY Regulation No. 8 Part B – Asbestos of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE), Air Quality Control Commission requires a State-certified Asbestos Building Inspector to inspect and collect bulk samples of all suspect asbestos containing materials (ACM) or suspect asbestos containing building materials (ACBM) prior to their disturbance, removal or demolition and disposal. The suspect materials shall be analyzed by a NVLAP accredited laboratory by polarized light microscopy (PLM) using EPA 600 analytical method. A material which is estimated to contain more than 1% asbestos is classified as ACM/ACBM and regulated by the State and Federal governments. Any friable (able to crush or reduce to powder by finger pressure) asbestos with trace amounts of asbestos fibers or less than 1% must be point-counted using EPA 400 analytical method to prove that it is indeed less than 1%; if not, it must be classified as ACM/ACBM and shall be treated as a State and Federal regulated material. Any friable asbestos containing material (greater than 1% asbestos concentration) or ACM/ACBM that could be rendered friable during its removal or demolition and disposal shall require an asbestos abatement by a certified asbestos abatement contractor to remove and dispose of the material(s). A Colorado State (CDPHE) issued asbestos abatement permit is required for the following trigger levels of ACM/ACBM: 1. 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 is going to be disturbed, removed or disposed of, an asbestos abatement permit is required. 2. Residential complexes with more than four residential units, public access areas to a residential building, commercial and retail buildings, public and civic buildings, industrial buildings--if more than 160 square feet of surfacing materials, 260 linear feet or more than 35 cubic feet (NESHAP) or 55-gallon drum (CDPHE) of suspect ACM/ACBM is going to be disturbed, removed or disposed of, an asbestos abatement permit is required under NESHAP and by the CDPHE. See note below on OSHA. The regulations require an absolute minimum of 3 samples (EPA suggests 9) per homogenous suspect surfacing and TSI materials and an absolute minimum of 2 samples 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. These are minimums; the asbestos building inspector has the field responsibility to determine homogenous materials and the number of samples to collect per material; more than the minimum number of samples may be necessary at the 7 discretion of the inspector. An assessment of friability and functional space conditions of the materials are also the inspector’s field responsibilities. OSHA compliance is required for all employers and employees no matter the quantity of asbestos present with strict regulations regarding 10 sf or more of TSI or friable surfacing materials, and therefore it does not matter what the quantity or State trigger levels are: all suspect ACM/ACBM shall be inspected and tested for asbestos prior to their disturbance, removal and disposal for worker protection and safety. See EPA 40 CFR 763.121 Worker Protection Rule, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 Respirator Protection Standard, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1001 General Industry Standard and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101 Construction Standard regulations when dealing with asbestos hazards. Note: County or City regulations may be more stringent. p 4MI r mamf g y bBR� fig _76� g 3�& °,' m O z m z , to X 520 E.
