HealthSaf e Inspections Inc 390 Apple Drive Basalt CO 81621 970-920-2100 Jim Baker CDPHE Asbestos Building Inspector, Asbestos Air Monitoring Specialist (AMS) & Project Designer Certification #13437 CDPHE Lead-Based Paint Inspector & Lead Hazard Assessor Certification #23607 DATE 08/07/2018 CLIENT Bolton Labine Builders, Inc. PO Box 3714 Avon CO 81620 ASBESTOS REPORT PROJECT PROPERTY ADDRESS 2832 Kinnickinnick Rd, Unit SA (C), Vail, Colorado 81657 1 CLIENT BACKGROUND The Client, Bolton, hired Labine Builders, Inc. to be the general contractor on a remodel- project of the interior of the two-floor townhouse. Drywall materials are impacted by such a remodel and required an asbestos inspection of the suspect asbestos containing materials (ACM) prior to disturbance or disposal of the materials. Labine Builders, Inc. hired HealthSafe Inspections, Inc. (hereinafter, HealthSafe) to perform the required asbestos inspection of the interior two floors after the disturbance, removal and disposal of the materials and prior to the issuance of the building permit. VISUAL INSPECTION & LABORATORY FINDINGS An inspection was conducted by Jim Baker ofHealthSafe on August 1, 2018 with Todd Labine present during the inspection and sample collection. Suspect ACM/ ACBM (drywall materials only) were identified and sampled from the two floor levels. Samples of each homogeneous surfacing and miscellaneous drywall materials were collected randomly from different rooms and locations on the two different floor levels where each homogeneous material was already impacted. No two samples were collected next to the other. This inspector di.d his best to get a broad representative of each homogeneous material without bias of locations. Those materials collected and analyzed by PLM analysis are the following: 1. Skip-Trowel Surfacing Material/Texture: a homogeneous trowel-applied surfacing material/texture [samples 1-5: ST-C/W-1,2,3,4,5]. This skip-trowel surfacing material/texture is on walls and ceilings of the ground-level, stairwell, garage and main floor areas and samples were collected in the two main floor areas already impacted. The estimated surface area of impact required to be tested is more than 10 sf, but less than 5,000 sf, requiring a minimum of at least five surfacing/texture material samples. The EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 2. Joint Compound: a homogeneous miscellaneous seam taping compound requiring at least two samples [samples 6-7: ST-C/W-JC-1,2]. The PLM analytical_ estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 3. Gypsum Wallboard/Drywall System: a homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system with gypsum wallboard panels, trowel-applied joint compound and tape (classified as a miscellaneous material as a complete integral system) [samples 8-9: ST-C/W-J-1,2]; these composite layered taped and joint compounded drywall materials are on ceilings and walls of the townhouse with a surfacing material/texture known as "skip-trowel". The estimated surface area of demolition and disposal impact is less than 5,000 sf requiring a minimum of at least two composite core samples of all drywall layers combined with the two samples of joint compound above (" ... number of sample§. sufficient to determine" ... if asbestos is present or not). The EPA 600 method PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 2 There were no other additional suspect asbestos building materials to sample which were already or slated to be disturbed, removed or disposed of in this remodel. 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 analyzed. See supporting Hayes Microbial Consulting, Inc. data report# 18025081. HEALTHSAFE CONCLUSIONS • There is NO asbestos in any of the suspect drywall building materials already disturbed, demolished and disposed of or will yet be impacted. NO asbestos abatement will be required. All drywall-related building materials listed above can be dealt with without the concerns for asbestos fibers. All building waste and debris can be disposed of in any landfill which accepts normal, non-hazardous building waste. • There were no other suspect building materials already or slated to be impacted in this remodel other than the drywall materials listed above. Sincerely Submitted, Jim 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 3 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. 4 OHAYES MICROBIAL CONSULTING 3005 East Boundary Terrace, #F Midlothian, VA 23112, USA 804.562.3435 Fax: 804.447 .5562 contact@hayesmicrobial.com http://hayesmicrobial.com/ Analysis Report prepared for HealthSafe Inspections 390 Apple Drive Basalt, CO. 81621 Phone: 970-920-2100 Job Name: Bolton 2832 Kinnichinnick Rd.
