Home My WebLink AboutB12-0411 ASBESTOS REPORTIndoor Environmental Services, Inc Project: 9 Vail Road, Unit 21 Vail, Colorado Asbestos Sampling Report – Page 1 of 2 August 24, 2012 Rick Parker On August 20, 2012, Quentin Danziger conducted an asbestos inspection of the suspect materials to be effected by a remodel. Asbestos was found, as described below. Homogenous Area Description Number of Samples % Asbestos Square Feet Type/Friable? 01 Main Bumpy Wall Texture 3 0.50% Point Count 1000 Surf/No 02 Flat Ceiling Texture 3 <0.25% Point Count 1000 Surf/No 03 Popcorn Ceiling 3 4 %1000 Surf/Yes 04 Sheetrock Joint Compound 3 < 1 % Composite 1000 Misc/No CONSLUSIONS: The popcorn ceiling texture contains 4% asbestos, by the PLM method of analysis. If this material is to be disturbed, it should be done only by a qualified, professional asbestos abatement company. The main bumpy wall texture, the flat ceiling texture over the kitchen area, and the joint compound, all measure to be less than 1% asbestos. This means that it is below the Colorado State's radar for permitting, and you will be able to get the demo permit . However, it is important to note that OSHA (worker safety) and EPA (disposal) Federal Regulations DO APPLY to material with any amount of asbestos. OSHA Federal Regulations amount to a complete asbestos abatement project. Indoor Environmental Services recommends that material containing any amount of asbestos be disturbed only by a qualified professional asbestos abatement company. Asbestos Abatement Contractors: Rocky Mountain Abatement - Richard Capra - 303-619-8023 - Cell Stink, Inc – Bob Hamilton – 303-886-4719 – Cell Indoor Environmental Services, Inc Project: 9 Vail Road, Unit 21 Vail, Colorado Asbestos Sampling Report – Page 2 of 2 BACKGROUND: A remodel is planned. Indoor Environmental Services, dba Built Forensics, was requested to conduct an asbestos inspection of the suspect materials. This inspection includes only suspect materials that are visible to the inspector. If other suspect materials become visible during demolition, they must be sampled before they are disturbed. Examples of suspect materials include but are not limited to: linoleum, floor tile, ceiling tile, mastic, sheetrock, joint compound, roofing materials, etc. There are over 3000 known asbestos containing materials. SAMPLING PLAN: Colorado State Requirements - For each homogenous area of less than 1000 square feet, a minimum of three samples must be collected in random areas. For each homogenous area of 1000 – 5000 square feet, a minimum of five samples must be collected in random areas. Areas of 5001 square feet or greater require a minimum of 7 samples. These laws are defined by the EPA (AHERA) and Colorado State Regulation 8. Determination of homogenous sampling areas – Homogenous Areas are determined by type of suspect material, texture, color and location. Determination of random sampling areas – The samples were collected in a random manner within each homogenous area. Thank you for using Indoor Environmental Services, Inc. We are proud to be your local indoor air quality consultants. We look forward to working with you in the future.
