1.0- This was an inspection for suspect ACM (Asbestos Containing Material) for a real estate
transaction. Element Environmental conducted an inspection for materials that may be
impacted during a remodel. This inspection included the area found in the Description
of the Sampling Area 7.0. This inspection was not for permitting purposes. It was for
information purposes only. 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 NOT 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 1 sample
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
samples are taken in a random numerical sequence.
4.0- Josh Johnson, a Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment certified building
inspector, certification number: 18401, performed the inspection. 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.

• The bathroom and closet areas in the center of the condo were tested.
8.0- CONCLUSION
The areas on the table in Red contained asbestos.
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 are 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.
