On November 28, 2011, the LCDHE received a copy of a report by Century Environmental Hygiene LLC that detailed methamphetamine (meth) test results of samples collected from the property. A number of the samples exceed Colorado's methamphetamine standards. This letter serves as a notice that hazardous substances, waste products and/or dangerous levels of methamphetamine residue may still exist within the two residences. Section 25-18.5-105 of the Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS), declares that meth properties that have not met the requirements of this Regulation shall be deemed a public health nuisance. Therefore the property located at 1321 & 1323 Cherry Street, Fort Collins, Colorado has been deemed a public health nuisance and listed as a dangerous building and will remain in such status until it has been properly cleaned and sample testing can demonstrate the property is safe to occupy. Be advised, Section 25-18.5-103 CRS requires the property owner to meet the cleanup standards established by the State Board of Health. These standards are located in 6 CCR 1014-3, Regulations Pertaining to the Cleanup of Methamphetamine Laboratories,. A preliminary assessment must be performed to provide a basis for proper decontamination and samples taken after cleanup are complete Please contact me at 970-498-6775 or at rgrossmann(d),larimer.org if you have any questions regarding this matter. jere.1y, Richard Grossmann Environmental Health Specialist cc: Mike Gebo, City of Fort Collins Northern Colorado Drug Task Force LARIMER DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT COUNTY 1525 Blue Spruce Drive Fort Collins, Colorado 80524-2004 General Health (970) 498-6700 Environmental Health (970) 498-6775 Fax (970) 498-6772 Memo To: Mike Gebo Building Code Administrator City of Fort Collins From: Richard Grossmann��h'J Larimer County Department of Health & Environment Date: December 5, 2011 Subject: Duplex at 1321 & 1323 Cherry Street, Fort Collins, CO The Larimer County Department of Health & Environment (LCDHE) has received a preliminary report from Century Environmental Hygiene, LLC regarding methamphetamine test results from the duplex located at 1321 & 1323 Cherry Street, Fort Collins, Colorado.
