INTRODUCTION
Mr. Stephen Croke of Sawatch Land Company, Inc., retained BTG & Associates, LLC (BTG) to conduct an
assessment of suspect asbestos-containing materials (ACM), at the Residential Structure (Unit 305) located
at 385 Gore Creek Drive in Vail, Colorado. Mr. Tyler Godby of BTG is an AHERA-accredited building
inspector and are also licensed as building inspectors by the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment (CDPHE). Mr. Tyler Godby (License No. 21667 expires February 14, 2019) conducted the
assessment on September 25, 2018. Copies of the inspector’s certificates of accreditation and licensure
are included in Appendix C. At the time of this limited inspection, samples were collected from the
materials previously removed from the kitchen in Unit 305 and the onsite dumpster for suspect
asbestos-containing materials, (ACM). One (1) positive drywall texture sample was collected from
a short 4” wall that will not be removed as part of this renovation, see photo in Appendix A.
The following appendices supplement the results of this assessment:
• Appendix A: Data Tables, Photos
• Appendix B: Laboratory Reports
• Appendix C: BTG & Laboratory Credentials
ASSESSMENT DESCRIPTION
BTG understands that the objective of this assessment was to identify ACM and/or presumed ACM (PACM)
that must be removed prior to planned renovation/demolition of the Site.
The samples collected by BTG during this assessment were submitted to EMSL Analytical, LLC. in Denver,
Colorado for analysis using polarized light microscopy (PLM) in accordance with United States
Environmental Protection Agency’s (USEPA) method EPA/600R-93/116 (July 1993) for determining
asbestos in bulk building materials. This laboratory is accredited for asbestos analysis using PLM by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program
(NVLAP). Certificates of laboratory accreditation and licensure are included in Appendix C.
The EPA National Emissions Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) (40 CFR 61, Subparts A
and M) has a requirement related to assessment of suspect ACM in buildings. Per CDPHE, Section
III.A.1.c., if the asbestos content of a sample of friable asbestos is estimated to be 1% asbestos or less, but
greater than 0%, by a method other than point counting (such as visual estimation), the determination shall
be repeated using the point counting technique with polarized light microscopy (PLM). If a result obtained
by point count is different from a result obtained by visual estimation, the point count result must be used.
When no asbestos is detected by PLM, point counting is not required. Prior to beginning this assessment,
834-F South Perry Street ● Suite #551 ● Castle Rock, CO ● 80104 ● (720) 341-9495
BTG confirmed with the client that BTG would point count samples reported as trace (<1%) asbestos, and
consider results of 1 to 10% as positive for asbestos.
RESULTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The results of the assessment and recommendations are summarized in the table below. A table providing
detailed results of the assessment is provided in Appendix A. A copy of the laboratory report is provided in
Appendix B.
Based on the laboratory analysis report, the following samples collected contain asbestos.
Friable ACM
Samples of the materials listed below contained friable asbestos at concentrations greater than 1%
asbestos under PLM analysis, and should be treated as ACM. The quantities of these materials are less
than the CDPHE Regulation 8B (Residential) trigger levels of 50 linear feet, 32 square feet, or the volume
equivalent to a 55-gallon drum. If the structure is scheduled for renovation, BTG recommends that a certified
General Abatement Contractor (GAC) licensed with the State of Colorado remove and dispose of these
materials under abatement conditions prior to renovation. However, if this material will not be disturbed as
part of the renovation process, then this material may remain and will not need to be removed. The GAC
shall verify all quantities of asbestos-containing materials.

1% asbestos under PLM analysis.
Materials with <1% Asbestos
No samples collected during the inspection contained concentrations of less than or equal to 1% asbestos
under PLM analysis.

During renovation/demolition operations, materials may be uncovered which are different from those
accessible for sampling during this assessment. Personnel in charge of demolition should be alerted to
note materials uncovered during these operations which differ substantially from those included in this
assessment. If suspect ACM are found, additional sampling by a CDPHE-licensed building inspector and
analysis by a NVLAP-accredited laboratory should be performed to determine if the materials contain
asbestos.
ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS
The results, findings, conclusions, and recommendations expressed in the report are based only on
conditions that were noted at the time of BTG’s assessment. BTG’s selection of sample locations and
frequency of sampling was based on our observations and the assumption that like materials in the same
area are homogeneous in content. The report is designed to aid the building owner, architect, construction
manager, general contractors, and potential asbestos abatement contractors in locating ACM. Under no
circumstances is the report to be utilized as a bidding document or as a project specification
document since it does not have all the components required to serve as an Asbestos Project Design
document or an Abatement Work plan.
Our professional services have been performed, our findings obtained, and our conclusions and
recommendations prepared in accordance with customary principles and practices in the fields of
environmental science and engineering. This statement is in lieu of other statements either expressed or
implied. This report does not warrant against future operations or conditions, nor does it warrant against
operations or conditions present of a type or at a location not investigated.
This report is certified to Mr. Stephen Croke of Sawatch Land Company, Inc. The scope of services
performed in execution of this evaluation may not be appropriate to satisfy the needs of other users, and
use or re-use of this document or the findings, conclusions, or recommendations is at the risk of said user.
ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
BTG’s inspector completed a walkthrough assessment of the building and recorded the areas of the building
inspected, as well as areas where materials suspected of containing asbestos were located.
BTG’s inspector also evaluated the condition, accessibility, and friability of suspect ACM according to the
following ratings:
• Condition, as good (G), fair (F), or poor (P)
834-F South Perry Street ● Suite #551 ● Castle Rock, CO ● 80104 ● (720) 341-9495
• Friability, as friable (F), Category I non-friable (CAT I), or Category II non-friable (CAT II), according
to the USEPA National Emissions Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) definitions in
Section 4.0.
When materials suspected of containing asbestos were identified, BTG’s inspector collected representative
bulk samples from each homogeneous area using the protocol presented in the following table:
SUSPECT ACM SAMPLING PROTOCOL
Homogeneous Area (HA)
Category HA Size Minimum Number of Samples
Surfacing Materials 1,000 SF or Less 3
1,001-5,000 SF 5
>5,000 SF 7 or more
Thermal System Insulation
(TSI) No Stipulation 3 of each type of TSI.
(Must also sample all repair patches)
Miscellaneous Materials No Stipulation One to 3 samples of each miscellaneous material.
Note: A Homogeneous Area is defined to include surfacing material, thermal systems insulation, and miscellaneous material areas
which are uniform in color, texture, construction and application date, and general appearance.
Destructive access and sampling techniques were used during this assessment. However, it is possible
that additional materials are present that were not visible or accessible during BTG’s assessment. If
suspect materials are encountered during future renovation or demolition activities, they should be assumed
to contain asbestos until evaluated by a qualified asbestos inspector. "Suspect" material includes, but is
not limited to, any material serving as a sprayed on or troweled on acoustic or fireproofing surface; floor
and ceiling tiles; drywall, joint compound, and related materials; transite panels, siding and shingles; thermal
insulation and any material associated with mechanical systems; and binding agents such as tar sealant,
mastic, adhesive, roofing tar, caulking, etc.
REGULATIONS AND GUIDELINES
EPA National Emissions Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) regulations for asbestos (40 CFR 61, Subparts A and M) apply to certain demolition
and renovation projects in facilities containing ACM and/or presumed ACM (PACM). The NESHAP rule
usually requires that all friable ACM and some categories of non-friable ACM be removed before a building
is demolished, and may require localized removal before or as part of a renovation. For renovation projects
where friable ACM will be disturbed, the NESHAP rule may require appropriate work practices or
834-F South Perry Street ● Suite #551 ● Castle Rock, CO ● 80104 ● (720) 341-9495
procedures for the control of emissions. The following EPA NESHAP definitions of ACM are very important
in interpreting which NESHAP requirements may apply to your building:
• Friable asbestos-containing material: any material containing more than 1 percent asbestos,
determined using PLM analysis, that when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder
by hand pressure.
• Category I non-friable asbestos-containing material: asbestos-containing packings, gaskets,
resilient floor covering, and asphalt roofing products containing more than 1 percent asbestos as
determined using PLM.
• Category II non-friable asbestos-containing material: any material excluding Category I non-friable
ACM, containing more than 1 percent asbestos as determined using PLM that, when dry, cannot
be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.
• Regulated asbestos-containing material (RACM): (1) friable ACM, (2) Category I non-friable ACM
that has become friable (3) Category I non-friable ACM that will be or has been subjected to
sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading, or (4) Category II non-friable ACM that has a high probability
of becoming or has become crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by the forces expected to
act on the materials in the course of demolition or renovation operations regulated by NESHAP.
According to NESHAPs, RACM need not be removed before demolition if:
• It is Category I non-friable ACM that is not in poor condition and is not friable.
• It is on a facility component that is enclosed in concrete or other similarly hard material and is
adequately wet whenever exposed during demolition.
• It was discovered after demolition began, and as a result, cannot be safely removed. If not
removed, the material must be kept wet until disposal.
• It is Category II non-friable ACM and the probability is low that the material will become crumbled,
pulverized, or reduced to powder during demolition.
NESHAP also requires that the EPA or the state (if the state has been delegated authority under NESHAP)
be notified before a building containing RACM is demolished, or before certain renovations impacting
RACM begin.
OSHA Asbestos Standards
The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulates employee exposure to asbestos
in general industry (29 CFR 1910.1001) and construction (29 CFR 1926.1101). The OSHA asbestos
standards provide a permissible exposure limit (PEL) of 0.1 fibers (equal to or longer than 5 micrometers)
per cubic centimeter of air (fibers/cc) determined as an 8-hour, time-weighted average (TWA) and an
excursion limit of 1 fiber/cc as a 30-minute TWA.
The asbestos construction standard applies to exposure of employees to asbestos during abatement and
renovation/demolition activities. The construction asbestos standard also applies to employees who may
contact or disturb ACM during their work activities (e.g. maintenance and custodial workers). It is important
834-F South Perry Street ● Suite #551 ● Castle Rock, CO ● 80104 ● (720) 341-9495
to note that the OSHA regulations apply to materials that contain any detectable concentration of asbestos,
whereas the NESHAP regulations only apply when the concentration is greater than 1%. The following
are selected OSHA definitions regarding asbestos work:
• Class I asbestos work: means activities involving the removal of TSI and surfacing ACM and PACM.
• Class II asbestos work: means activities involving the removal of ACM which is not thermal system
insulation or surfacing material. This includes, but is not limited to, the removal of asbestos-containing
wallboard, floor tile and sheeting, roofing and siding shingles, and construction mastics.
• Class III asbestos work: means repair and maintenance operations, where "ACM", including TSI and
surfacing ACM and PACM, is likely to be disturbed.
• Class IV asbestos work: means maintenance and custodial activities during which employees contact
but do not disturb ACM or PACM and activities to clean up dust, waste and debris resulting from Class
I, II, and III activities.
• Intact: means that the ACM has not crumbled, been pulverized, or otherwise deteriorated so that
asbestos is no longer likely to be bound with its matrix.
OSHA requires that specific work practices and procedures be followed to control asbestos exposure of
employees involved in abatement or renovation activities as well as the building occupants. In addition, the
OSHA standard provides requirements for exposure monitoring, employee training, medical surveillance,
respiratory protection, signage, and other protective measures.
LOCAL AND STATE REGULATIONS
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) has promulgated regulations
pertaining to asbestos activities in Colorado Regulation 8, Part B. Regulation 8B is based on the EPA
NESHAP requirements, with additional state-specific provisions for asbestos inspections, abatement, and
other activities. Regulation 8B also identifies training and certification requirements for professionals
performing asbestos work in the State of Colorado. A summary of the requirements related to renovation
and demolition of structures containing ACM is provided below:
1. Regulation 8B requires that any public or private building must have an asbestos survey performed to
confirm the presence of ACM prior to renovation or demolition activities.
2. If friable ACM will be removed or disturbed as part of the renovation/demolition activities, the ACM must
be removed under abatement conditions before demolition begins. CDPHE Regulation 8B requires that
a State of Colorado Licensed General Abatement Contractor (GAC) perform the removal in accordance
with Section III.H (Abatement Sequence).
3. CDPHE must be notified for all renovations and demolitions of all residential and commercial structures
and all asbestos abatement projects that exceed the trigger levels (50 linear feet, 32 square feet, or the
volume equivalent to a 55-gallon drum, “residential”) and (260 linear feet, 160 square feet, or the
volume equivalent to a 55-gallon drum, “commercial”). The notification requirements apply to both
friable and non-friable asbestos materials. Notifications must be postmarked or delivered at least 10
working days before initiating abatement activities, and must be made using CDPHE forms.
4. During demolition, all non-friable asbestos-containing materials are exempt from abatement activities
provided that they remain in a non-friable state and are kept wet at all times during demolition activities.
834-F South Perry Street ● Suite #551 ● Castle Rock, CO ● 80104 ● (720) 341-9495
5. During renovation, non-friable materials may remain in place if they are not disturbed during the
renovation activities. If these materials will be disturbed, they must be removed prior renovation.
6. Waste materials containing friable ACM must be properly disposed of at a landfill licensed to receive
friable ACM materials. This requirement applies even if the quantities are below the CDPHE trigger
levels requiring an abatement permit. Non-friable ACM waste must be disposed of at an approved
landfill that accepts non-friable materials. If waste contains a mixture of friable and non-friable
materials, it must be disposed of at a landfill licensed to receive friable ACM materials.
7. A CDPHE licensed Air Monitoring Specialist (AMS) shall follow Regulation 8B Section III.P (Clearing
Abatement Projects) prior to signing any demo permits at the site.
8. The building owner should be aware that removing ACM does not discharge ownership of the ACM.
During transport or after burial in an approved landfill, any contamination throughout the lifetime of the
material remains the responsibility of the building owner.

Dear Mr. Stephen Croke:
The bulk samples submitted to FRS Geotech, Inc. have been analyzed by polarized light microscopy (PLM),
the EPA-recommended method for determination of fibrous constituents in building materials. The percent of
asbestos contained in the samples is a visual estimation based upon comparisons with published charts. The
results of these analyses are summarized in the enclosed table. This report relates only to the items received
and tested by our laboratory. According to requirements set by the National Institute of Standards and
Technology/NVLAP, this report must not be used by the client to claim certification, approval, or
endorsement by NVLAP, NIST, or any agency of the Federal Government. Also, NVLAP guidelines specify
that this report should not be reproduced, except in full, without the written approval of FRS.
A copy of your Chain of Custody is attached for your convenience. This report is considered highly
confidential. Results will not be discussed with any person not associated with you.
Please call if you have any questions about this work.
Sincerely,
David A. Schroeder, Ph.D.
