CLIENT BACKGROUND & PLANS
The Client, Linden Ln, LLC, is planning a renovation-remodel-demolition of the house
interior, which will have impacts of disturbance, detachment, deconstruction,
demolition, and disposal (5D) of drywall and flooring building materials, of which some
are suspect asbestos containing materials (ACM). Prior to 5D, Linden Ln, LLC is
required to have an asbestos inspection by a State of Colorado CDPHE certified asbestos
inspector who will collect bulk samples of the suspect ACM and have those samples
analyzed at a certified laboratory for asbestos content. Linden Ln, LLC hired HealthSafe
Inspections, Inc. (hereinafter, HealthSafe) via the general contractor, G.F. Woods
Construction, Inc., to perform a limited asbestos inspection for the house interior.
VISUAL INSPECTION & LABORATORY FINDINGS
An inspection was conducted by Ben Baker of HealthSafe on Tuesday, May 03, 2022,
with Frank Reynolds present during the initial survey, inspection and sample collecting.
All suspect ACM were identified by homogenous materials and sampled randomly
respective to the scope of those materials slated for 5D. The suspect ACM collected and
analyzed by EPA 600 Method PLM analysis are the following:
1. Skip Trowel Surfacing Texture, a homogeneous trowel-applied surfacing
material/texture [samples 1-7: ST-1,2,3,4,5,6,7], collected randomly from the
basement bedroom SE corner, basement living room north of the center column,
basement living room NW corner, main-level east bedroom east wall south of the
window, main-level NW bedroom west wall under the south corner of the
window, top-level NW bedroom NW corner, and the top-level living room SE
corner, respectively, using the AHERA random sampling grid # 15. This surfacing
material/texture is friable, undamaged, and located on the ceilings and walls of the
house interior. The estimated impact area of 5D is more than 5,000 requiring a
minimum of at least seven surfacing/texture material samples. The PLM
analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED.
2. Orange Peel Surfacing Texture, a homogeneous spray-applied surfacing
material/texture [samples 8-10: OP-1,2,3], collected randomly from the basement
coat stairway landing coat closet south wall, entryway coat closet south wall, and
the laundry room west wall south of the window, respectively. Samples were
collected randomly in separate functional spaces on different floors of the house.
This surfacing material/texture is friable, undamaged, and located on the ceilings
and walls of the laundry room and the closets throughout the house. The estimated
impact area of 5D is more than 10 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.
3. Drywall System Joint Compound: a homogeneous miscellaneous seam taping
compound requiring at least two samples [samples 11 -12: JC-1,2], collected from
the basement stairway landing coat closet SE corner and the entry coat closet SW
05/24/2022
3
corner, respectively. This material is friable, undamaged, and applied to the house
interior drywall system. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE
DETECTED.
4. Drywall System, a homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system
(classified as a miscellaneous material as a complete integral system) [samples
13-14: J-1,2], collected from the basement stairway landing coat closet SE corner
and the entry coat closet SW corner, respectively. These composite layered taped
and joint compounded drywall materials are friable, undamaged, and located on
the ceilings and walls of the house interior with skip trowel and orange peel
applied surfacing materials/textures. The estimated impact area of 5D is more
than 5,000 sf, requiring a minimum of at least two composite core samples of all
layers. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED.
5. Beige Grout, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring a minimum of at
least two samples [samples 15-16: BG-GT-1,2], collected from the basement
bathroom SE corner and the top-level NW bedroom bathroom south wall at the
lower west corner of the window, respectively. This material is non-friable,
undamaged, and located on the bathroom floors and shower walls. The PLM
analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED.
6. Foyer Floor Grout, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring a minimum
of at least two samples [samples 17-18: ETR-1,2], collected from the foyer at the
stair nosing at the top of the basement staircase and at the garage man door
threshold, respectively. This material is non-friable, undamaged, and located on
the floor of the foyer on the main floor. The PLM analytical estimated results:
NONE DETECTED.
A total of 18 suspect homogeneous ACM bulk samples were collected, and 18 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. There is NO asbestos in all 18 samples.
See supporting Hayes Microbial Consulting, Inc. data report #22016412_1.
HEALTHSAFE CONCLUSIONS
• There is NO asbestos in any of the suspect building materials slated for 5D in this
interior remodel project. NO asbestos abatement will be required for any of the
building materials. All building waste and debris can be disposed of in any landfill
which accepts normal, non-hazardous building waste.
Sincerely Submitted,
Ben Baker

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
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.

Analy sis Details All s amples were received in acceptable condition unless otherwise noted on the report. This report must not be used by the client to claim product certification,
approval, or endors ement by AIHA, NIST, NVLAP, NY ELAP, or any agency. The results relate only to the items tested. Hayes Microbial Consulting reserves the right to
dispose of all samples after a period of 60 days in compliance with s tate and federal guidelines.
PLM Analy s is All Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) results include an inherent uncertainty of measurement ass ociated with estimating percentages by PLM.
Materials with interfering matrix, low as bestos content, or small fiber size may require additional analysis via TEM Analysis.
TEM Analy sis Analysis by TEM is capable of providing positive identification of as bestos type(s) and s emi-quantitation of asbes tos content.
Definitions 'None Detected' - Below the detected reporting limit of 1% unles s point counting is performed, then the detected reporting limit is .25%.
New York ELAP Per NY ELAP198.6 (NOB), TEM is the only reliable method to declare an N OB material as Non-As bestos Containing.
Any N Y ELAP samples that are subcontracted to another laboratory will display the name and ELAP Lab Identification number in the report page heading of those
s amples. The original report provided to Hayes Microbial Consulting is available upon request.
