The purpose of this was to collect samples of suspect asbestos -containing building materials ass with the subject building and have the building material samples analy asbestos content On August 30, 2013, National Inspection Service0 completed a limited ; survey that included the collection of the following ten (10) samples of asbestos -containing materials: LLC to t 3500 survey for https:I,dl.dropboxusercontent.com/static/javascript/external/pdf-js_.AAH--TPNehQ6`ctUAgShAYi241_DFVsXgvtGMonIm8UjooQ%26disable_range%3D1 Page 2 of 8 3500 South College Avenue Limited Asbestos Survey Report V3.pdf 3/6/14, 3:47 PM Limited Asbestos Survey Report -3500SourhCollege Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 September7,2013 Sample Material ,' Location Quantity, IA ' a (Appret uare r• Foota e 1 Fiberglass Pipe Insulation North Basement Area - Boiler Throughout Material T Room Piin_g Components 2 Tan Paint / 'texture J North Basement Area - Hallway Throughout Drywall Walls (South Wall 3 2'x4' Lay -In Ceiling Tile North Basement Area - Storage 2,000 Room Ceilin 4 1'xl' Vinyl Floor Tile f Office Depot - Shipping and Throughout Mastic Receiving Area 5 2'x4' Lay -In Ceiling "tile Spirit Halloween - Mezzanine 500 Office Area Ceiling 6 Tan Paint / Texture / Spirit Halloween --Mezzanine Throughout Drywall Stairwell Walls North Wall 1 7 2'x4' Lay -In Ceiling Tile The Sleep Store - Storage Room Throughout _ Ceiling 1 8 White Paint / Texture / The Sleep Store - Storage Room Throughout Ur all Walls (East Wa%!j_ 4 Pink Paint / Texture / South Shopping Center Entrance I Throughout Drywall I Walls East Interior Wall 10 Pink Paint / Texture / South Shopping Center Entrance I Throughout Drywall Walls est Wall The samples were submitted to Century Environmental Hygiene, LLC analytical laboratory in Fort Collins, Colorado who is accredited by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). The samples were analyzed for asbestos content concentrations utilizing Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM). The State of Colorado, Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) considers a regulated asbestos -containing material as having at least 1% asbestos content. Regulated asbestos -containing materials consist of the following: (a) friable asbestos -containing material, (b) Category I non friable ACM that has become friable, (c) Category I non friable ACM that will be or has been subjected to sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading or (d) Category 11 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 material in the course of demolition or rpnnvatinn nnprntinns.

The percent of asbestos contained in drywall and its associated materials, including mud and tape, may be determined based on a representative composite sampling program. Drywall finishing mud and joint compound frequently has been found to contain a significant amount of asbestos (i.e. greater than 1%), while the substrate it is applied over may or may not contain any asbestos. A demolition/renovation Limited Asbestos Survey Report- 3500 South College Avenue, For Collins, Colorado 80525 September 7, 2013 project may impact the mud alone, such as could be the case during a sanding operation or the demolition/renovation project may impact the composite material (the mud and the substrate drywall it is applied over), such as would be theicase in the demolition of the drywall. In the first case, if the mud contains greater than 1% asbestos, the project must be handled as an asbestos abatement project, subject to all the applicable requirements of the Air Pollution Control Division. In the second case, the project is considered to be an asbestos abatement project if the percent of asbestos in the combined mud/drywall composite material is greater than 1%. If, on the other hand, the mud contains 1% or less of asbestos, the material is not considered to be an asbestos -containing material for purposes of the Air regulations and is not subject to the asbestos abatement requirements. Similarly, if the composite analysis indicates an asbestos content of 1% or less, even though the mud itself may be greater than 1%, the material is not considered to be an asbestos - containing material and does not fall under the asbestos abatement requirements of the Air regulations. In both of these cases, the removed materials may be disposed of as construction and demolition debris. Adequate documentation must belkept to demonstrate the determination regarding the concentration of asbestos in the materials being disposed. Removal or management of regulated asbestos -containing materials is required only if the material can be damaged or disturbed during remodeling, demolition, or burning activities. If the amount of asbestos -containing material to be disturbed exceeds the following trigger levels, then an asbestos permit will be required and an abatement contractor must remove the material. • With regard to single-family residential dwellings, the trigger levels are 54 linear feet on pipes, 32 square feet on other surfaces, or the volume equivalent of a 55-gallon drum. • With regard to all areas other than single-family residential dwellings, the triaapr 1pvplc nrp 2Sn linear feet nn ninpc. 1 An cmtare fppt nn nther curfarec. https://di.dropboxusercontent.com/static/javascript/external/pdf-js...AAH-TPNehQ6EtUAgShAYi24LDFVsXgvtGR8Ycmim8UjooQ%26disable_range%3D1 Page 4 of 8 3500 South College Avenue Limited Asbestos Survey Report V3.pdf or the volume equivalent of a 55-gallon drum. A certified removal contractor (General Abatement Contractor) must remove asbestos -containing materials that are regulated or may become regulated before they are disturbed by renovation or demolition activities. A written notification to CDPHE, payment of a notification fee, and ten (10) working day waiting period is required before the removal (abatement) of regulated asbestos containing materials. According to the CDPHE, certain types of non -friable asbestos -containing materials (tar/asphalt-impregnated roofing, floor tiles, etc.) may not be required to be removed prior to demolition. However, according to the CDPHE Hazardous Limited Asbestos Survey Report - 3500 South College Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 September 7, 2013 Materials and Waste Management Division's Asbestos -Contaminated Soil Guidance Document, asbestos -containing materials are prohibited to impact soils. Any asbestos -containing materials left in -place during demolition activities must be removed with no residual debris. CDPHE requires a demolition permit fog all demolition activities (including burning), even if a building does not contain asbestos. CDPHE also requires a demolition permit for remodeling activities that involve the destruction or removal of a load -supporting structural member. CDPHE requires ten (10) business days to process the form and grant permission to begin demolition activities. A copy of the CDPHE Demolition Permit Application is included in the enclosures section of this letter report. Based on the results of this limited survey, no building materials were identified c- associated with the structure that contained at least 1% asbestos content. RECOMMENDATIONS ,No asbestos -containing materials were identified..associated with the structure during this limited survey that would .warrant .abatement activities. Therefore, National Inspection ServicesO does not recommend any further investigation at this time. However, prior to any demolition or renovation activities, a comprehensive asbestos survey is recommended.)
