Element Environmental conducted a visible inspection for visible materials that would be impacted during the remodel. This inspection was limited to the areas found in the Description of the Sampling Area 7.0. Although sampling is destructive in nature, this was a non-invasive inspection. It was of materials that were accessible. 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 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 2 samples 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 materials are touched to determine friability. Friable ACM is material that can be crushed or reduced to powder by hand pressure. The samples are taken in a random numerical sequence. 4.0- Ellen Johnson, a Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment certified building inspector, certification number: 23799, performed the inspection. The findings were reviewed by Josh Johnson, a Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment certified building inspector, certification number: 18401. 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. 01/21/2021 Project #-HD 091720 Francis 3 5.0- SUSPECT MATERIALS SAMPLES • Drywall • Texture • Tape • Joint Compound • Carpet • Tile Grout 6.0- TABLE OF RESULTS HOMOGENOUS AREA DESCRIPTION OF AREA ACM CATEGORY NUMBER OF SAMPLES APPROXIMATE SQ.FT.* ACM ASSESSMENT CATEGORIES % AND TYPE OF ASBESTOS FOUND (A) Orange Peel Texture throughout the Lower Level Surfacing 5 ~3508 sq.ft.

The areas in Black on the Table did not contain asbestos. The areas in Red on the Table contained asbestos: • The Orange Peel Texture throughout the lower level • The Skip Trowel Texture throughout the upper level 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 is 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.
