She is planning a renovation- remodel-demolition of limited location on the interior, such as kitchen and bathrooms, which will have impacts of disturbance, detachment, deconstruction, demolition and disposal (5D) of building materials, of which some are suspect asbestos containing materials (ACM) or suspect asbestos containing building materials (ACBM). Prior to 5D, the Client 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/ACBM and have those samples analyzed at a certified laboratory for asbestos content. The Client hired HealthSafe Inspections, Inc. (hereinafter, HealthSafe) to perform a limited interior asbestos inspection for the interior renovations. VISUAL INSPECTION & LABORATORY FINDINGS An inspection was conducted by Jim Baker of HealthSafe on Friday, October 2, 2020. All interior suspect ACM/ACBM were identified by homogenous materials and sampled randomly respective to the scope of those materials slated for 5D. The suspect ACM/ACBM collected and analyzed by EPA 600 Method PLM analysis are the following: 1. Flat Finish Surfacing Texture, a homogeneous trowel-applied surfacing material/texture [samples 1-7: F-1,2,3,4,5,6,7], collected randomly from the master bathroom near toilet, east wall right of master suite door, right of living room fireplace, second-floor south bedroom west wall, second-floor storage closet, basement family room north wall above cabinet and basement bathroom east wall, respectively, using the AHERA random sampling grid # 15. This surfacing material/texture is on ceilings and walls of the whole house and garage. The estimated surface area is more than 5,000 sf, requiring a minimum of at least seven surfacing/texture material samples. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 2. Drywall System with Joint Compound, a homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system (classified as a miscellaneous material as a complete integral system) [samples 8-9: F-J-1,2], collected from the office NE inside corner of the kitchen pantry and the master closet NE inside corner, respectively. These composite layered taped and joint compounded drywall materials are on ceilings and walls of the house and garage with a flat finish applied surfacing material/texture. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. A total of 9 suspect homogeneous ACM/ACBM bulk samples were collected and 9 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 9 samples. 06/08/2021 3 See supporting Hayes Microbial Consulting, Inc. data report #20035778_1. HEALTHSAFE CONCLUSIONS • There is NO asbestos in any of the interior suspect building materials of the house and garage. NO asbestos abatement will be required for any of the interior building materials. • All building waste and debris can be disposed of in any landfill which accepts normal, non-hazardous building waste. Sincerely Submitted, Jim Baker 06/08/2021 4 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. 06/08/2021 5 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. 06/08/2021 06/08/2021 10/5/2020 Hayes Microbial - R eport file:///tmp/amberjob_200357781.html 1/3 #20035778 Analysis Report prepared for Healt hSafe Inspec tions 390 Ap p le DriveBasalt, CO 81621 Ph o ne: (970) 920-2100 Darin Eydenb erg701 Gibson AveAspen, CO 8 1611 Collected: Octo b er 2, 2020Received: Octo b er 5, 2020Reported: Octo b er 5, 2020 We w ould like to thank you for trusting Hayes Microbial for your analytical needs!

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.
