MATERIALS
208 NORTH HOWES STREET
FORT COLLINS, COLORADO 80521
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
This report provides an overview of the building inspection services performed at 208
North Howes Street in Fort Collins, Colorado. This project was conducted for the City of
Fort Collins – Operation Services Department under the General Environmental Services
Contract Number 7436 and an executed City of Fort Collins Purchase Order 9141998
dated April 8, 2014. Walsh Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC (WALSH) was
contracted by to perform the following activities:
Perform a comprehensive semi-destructive asbestos inspection and quantification of
all accessible building materials suspected to contain asbestos found to be present in
the building
Perform a screening for lead-based paint
Compile an inventory of typical regulated building materials associated with the
construction of commercial buildings
Prepare a final building inspection report following receipt of analytical results and
interpretation of the data
WALSH performed the building inspection activities on April 15, 2014.
1.2 Regulatory Compliance - EPA, OSHA, and State Programs
The data gathered from the visual inspection of the structure, collection of bulk samples
of accessible suspect building materials, and the interpretation of analytical results is
intended to provide information that meets federal, state, and local regulatory
requirements for the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). The asbestos
inspection and sampling process was conducted in accordance with the following
standards:
United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Asbestos Hazard Emergency
Response Act (AHERA) - 40 CFR 763 Subpart E 763.80 to 763.99
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) Regulation No. 8
EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) – 40 CFR
61 Part M
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) asbestos regulations - 29
CFR 1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CFR 1910 Parts 134 and 1001
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
WA-002011-0027-10TTO 208 N Howes - Building Insp Rpt 2
ACMs identified in this report are subject to the EPA NESHAP Regulations for Asbestos
(40 CFR 61 Part M) and the CDPHE Regulation No. 8 (Reg. 8) "The Control of
Hazardous Air Pollutants.” CDPHE is responsible for administering the EPA NESHAP
program in Colorado. ACMs are also subject to OSHA Standards for Asbestos (29 CFR
1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CFR 1910 Parts 134 and 1001). Materials containing one
percent or less asbestos may be subject to OSHA regulations, if air concentrations
sampled during renovation/demolition activities are at or above the personal exposure
limit (PEL) of 0.10 fibers per cubic centimeter (f/cc) as an eight hour time weighted
average or the excursion limit of 1.0 f/cc as averaged over a 30 minute sampling period.
Revised OSHA regulations for General Industry (29 CFR 1910 Part 1001) and the
Construction Industry (29 CFR 1926 Part 1101) include the following provisions for
communication of hazards to building owner employees (or by the subcontractor to
subcontractor employees):
Employer must inform housekeeping/maintenance employees and subcontractors
(plumbers, electricians, roofers, HVAC technicians, etc.) whether building
components may expose staff and subcontractors to asbestos
Building owner shall maintain records concerning the presence, location, and quantity
of ACMs in the building for the duration of ownership or occupancy, and records
shall be transferred to successive owners
Where a building owner or employer identifies ACMs, labels or signs shall be affixed
or posted so employees will be notified of what materials contain asbestos. These
signs or labels shall be placed on materials or in areas where they will be noticed by
employees who are likely to be exposed such as entrances to mechanical rooms, pipe
chases, or electrical cabinets that embody ACMs
OSHA regulates worker exposure to lead under regulations promulgated at 29 CFR Part
1926.62. This standard applies to all construction work where employees may be
exposed to lead, including renovation and remodeling, and demolition activities. This
standard addresses such issues as worker training, medical evaluations, personnel
protective equipment, exposure assessment, air monitoring, hygiene facilities and
practices, and health and safety plans. OSHA regulations do not define a minimum
concentration of lead in materials as a threshold for action. Thus, even concentrations
below United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) levels are
covered under OSHA regulations. The CDPHE Regulation Number 19 has adopted the
HUD Guidelines. The regulation however, does not apply to this specific renovation/
demolition project, and in general applies to lead-based paint abatement for child
occupied facilities.
Regulated building materials identified in this report are subject to the EPA Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Regulations (40 CFR Part 260) and CDPHE
Hazardous Waste Regulations (6 CCR 1007-3). These hazardous waste programs
regulate commercial businesses as well as federal, state, and local government facilities
that generate, transport, treat, store, or dispose of hazardous waste.

2 ASBESTOS INSPECTION METHODOLOGY/PURPOSE AND
SCOPE OF WORK
The inspection of building materials was performed in accordance with EPA, AHERA,
and other regulatory and applicable industry standards, including NESHAP, OSHA
regulations, as well as CDPHE asbestos regulations. Asbestos inspection activities were
performed by AHERA and State of Colorado accredited personnel. Consultant
certifications are included in Appendix A.
2.1 Asbestos Inspection Methodology
The scope of the asbestos inspection was to identify ACM and included the following
steps:
Review of site drawings and records
Review of previous asbestos inspection report
Visual inspection of interior portions of the building, including accessible common
areas, mechanical rooms, as well as exterior portions of the building to identify
suspect materials
Determination of friability by touching all accessible suspect material
Development of a sampling plan for each material based on the homogeneous
material type, friability, accessibility, and location. Homogeneous and non-
homogeneous material samples were submitted for laboratory analysis by Polarized
Light Microscopy (PLM), select confirmation analyses are performed by Point Count
Methods
Homogeneous Areas The following building systems were inspected to identify
suspected homogeneous materials:
Ceiling Systems
Electrical Systems
Flooring Systems
Structural Systems
Thermal/Mechanical Systems
Wall/Partition Systems
Miscellaneous Systems
A homogeneous material is defined as a material that appears similar throughout with
regard to color and texture.
Homogeneous materials that were inspected, but not suspected to contain asbestos, are
not included in this report. Such materials include carpet, concrete, fiberglass, wood, and
rubber or plastic products.
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
WA-002011-0027-10TTO 208 N Howes - Building Insp Rpt 4
2.2 Homogeneous Material Identification
Each type of suspect homogeneous material was assigned an alpha numeric code which
consisted of an alpha material code, followed by a number to identify the different
varieties of that suspect building material. Material size, thickness, substrate, friability,
location, and approximate quantity were recorded in the areas inspected during the
inspection.
2.3 Homogeneous Material Types
The homogeneous materials were classified into one of following three types of
homogeneous material descriptions:
Surfacing Material refers to a wide range of trowel or spray-applied materials
typically used for acoustical or fireproofing purposes. Examples include spray-
applied fireproofing and acoustical texture ceilings
Thermal System Insulation (TSI) refers to insulation that is applied to heating or
mechanical system components. Examples include pipe, tank, and boiler insulation
Miscellaneous Materials refers to all other materials that do not fall into one of the
previously mentioned categories. Examples include floor tile, adhesives, and ceiling
tiles
Once the type of homogeneous material was determined, it was then classified as friable
or non-friable. The EPA distinguishes between friable and non-friable forms of ACM.
Friable materials, when dry, can be crumbled or reduced to powder by hand pressure,
whereas non-friable materials cannot. Friable materials are more likely to release
particulate dust into the air, especially during renovation and demolition of a building.
Therefore, the distinction between friable and non-friable homogeneous material is
important.
The EPA has identified two categories of non-friable ACM. EPA define Category I non-
friable ACM as pickings, gaskets, resilient floor covering, and asphalt roofing products
containing more than one percent asbestos that, when dry, cannot be crumbled,
pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. Whereas Category II non-friable
ACM are any material, excluding Category I materials, containing more than one percent
asbestos that, when dry, cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand
pressure. EPA NESHAP regulations require removal of all friable ACM and all non-
friable ACM that would become friable during renovation/demolition activities. Many
non-friable ACMs may remain in place during demolition/renovation provided
demolition/renovation methods do not render the material friable and the workers are
adequately protected.
2.4 Sampling Strategy
The bulk sampling strategy used to determine the appropriate number of samples to be
collected of each suspect material is summarized on Table 1.

WALSH collected bulk samples of suspect materials in a random and representative
manner, as determined by the inspector. Samples were collected by obtaining a sample
that included all layers within the suspect material. Each sample was collected using
hand tools such as a razor knife, screwdriver or pliers, and immediately placed within a
sealed sampling container and labeled with a unique identification number. Each suspect
material was identified and inventoried in the Walsh BuildX Field Inspection Database
(FID). Every twentieth sample, a duplicate sample was collected for quality
assurance/quality control (QA/QC) purposes. Upon completion of collection of samples,
the FID was utilized to generate a chain-of-custody document to accompany samples
during transport to the laboratory.
2.5 Asbestos Sample Chain of Custody
At the time of collection, samples were labeled with an appropriate and unique number.
This number (along with other information such as sample location, color, texture, and
condition) was recorded in the FID.
The samples were shipped along with a completed chain-of-custody form to the
laboratory. Upon receipt, the laboratory arranged the samples in numerical order. If a
discrepancy between the number of samples and the chain-of-custody form existed, it
was noted and initialed on the form. Laboratory personnel signed the chain of custody
form to acknowledge receipt. The laboratory included the signed original copy of the
chain-of-custody form with the final analytical report for evidentiary purposes. Further,
the laboratory assigned a unique laboratory identification number to each sample
received. The laboratory labeled both the analytical report and the sample container with
this laboratory number for cross-reference purposes.
2.6 Laboratory Analysis for Asbestos
The bulk samples were submitted for analysis to Reservoirs Environmental, Inc an
accredited laboratory by EPA’s National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program
(NVLAP). The QA/QC samples were submitted to DCM Sciences Laboratory, Inc., also
a NVLAP accredited laboratory. Analysis of the bulk samples was performed using PLM
to determine asbestos type and content. The PLM analyses results are reported as percent
asbestos by weight and by calibrated visual area estimation. Percent asbestos for separate
layers and total for the sample are delineated in the laboratory report. Unused portions of
samples are archived for six months unless the client requests special handling. Copies

of the laboratory results and chain-of-custody documentation for the bulk asbestos
samples are included in Appendix B.
3 LEAD-BASED PAINT SCREENING METHODOLOGY/
PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF WORK
Select representative painted building components were evaluated for the presence of
lead-based paint (LBP) utilizing a portable X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analyzer. The
LBP screen is solely for general disclosure purposes to provide contractors with
information regarding those materials containing the highest levels of lead and to
supplement presumption that all painted surfaces may contain some level of lead. This
disclosure is provided to those contractors that may impact painted materials about
general conditions that may be encountered for a particular building. The screening is
also conducted to provide general information regarding waste characterization/
disposition (proper disposal) provisions.
The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) defines lead-
based paint (LBP) as paint having a lead content of greater than or equal to 1.0
milligrams per square centimeter (mg/cm2) using X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysis. The
lead screening was generally based on HUD guidelines for conducting lead-based paint
surveys. WALSH performed the LBP screening on April 15, 2014. Lead screening
activities were conducted by or under the supervision of trained lead
inspectors/instrument operators. Select interior and exterior typical painted components
were evaluated for the presence of LBP.
Demolition and renovation activities involving LBP are subject to the OSHA
Construction Industry Standard for Lead (Title 29 CFR, Part 1926.62). This standard is
similar to other OSHA standards in that it addresses such issues as worker training,
medical evaluations, personal protective equipment, exposure assessment, air monitoring,
hygiene facilities and work practices.
OSHA regulations do not define a minimum concentration of lead as a threshold for
action (as the threshold for action is based on exposure assessment levels). Thus, even
concentrations below the LBP level established by EPA and HUD are subject to hazard
communication and exposure assessment provisions of the OSHA regulation.
To comply with EPA air, solid waste, and water quality standards, appropriate work
practices, engineering controls, and other precautions should be taken to ensure lead
containing materials are not introduced into surrounding roadway, soil, road drainage
systems, and waterways.
Additionally, lead-containing materials with a total lead content equal to or exceeding
0.01% by weight may exceed the EPA RCRA standard, and are subject to hazardous
waste determination under EPA regulations. Representative waste characterization
should be performed using the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Process (TCLP)
analytical method. The Toxicity Characteristic (TC) limit for lead is five (5) parts per
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
WA-002011-0027-10TTO 208 N Howes - Building Insp Rpt 7
million in the leachate. Materials that exceed this limit must be disposed of as hazardous
waste. Materials that do not exceed this limit may be disposed of as a solid waste.
Materials that are recycled such as metal components are not subject to waste
characterization provisions under EPA requirements, but proper disclosure of lead-
containing materials should be provided to the recycling facility for hazard
communication purposes.
4 REGULATED BUILDING MATERIALS METHODOLOGY/
PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF WORK
The regulated building materials inventory included an inspection and compilation of an
inventory of presumed common materials where proper disposition is customary prior to
renovation or demolition to comply with applicable regulations and general industry
standards.
The inventory will include the identification and quantification of the following types of
common hazardous materials associated with building components:
Cooling/Refrigeration Equipment [chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)]
Cylinders/Tanks (miscellaneous compounds)
Electronic Equipment (fixed building components only) (lead, mercury)
Fluids Elevator Hydraulic Fluids [poly-chlorinated biphenyl (PBC) containing]
Fluorescent Lamps (mercury)
Fire Suppression Systems (Halon, chemical systems)
Light Ballasts (PCB containing)
Mechanical Equipment (fluids)
Mercury Gauges/Thermometers
Mercury Thermostats
Mercury Vapor Lamps, High Pressure Sodium, and Metal Halide Lamps
Oil Sand Traps
Rechargeable Batteries
Smoke Alarms (radioactive materials)
Storage Tank/Vessel (fluids)
Transformers (PCB containing)
WALSH performed the regulated building materials inventory on April 15, 2014.
5 ASBESTOS INSPECTION FINDINGS
A total of thirty six (36) samples, which includes one (1) QA/QC sample, were collected
from eleven (11) suspect building materials. A total of thirty two (32) samples were
analyzed by PLM analysis. Two (2) samples were further analyzed utilizing the
confirmatory point count analytical techniques. The EPA and OSHA define ACM as
material containing more than one percent asbestos or a material that is assumed to
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
WA-002011-0027-10TTO 208 N Howes - Building Insp Rpt 8
contain asbestos. The following five (5) suspect building materials were confirmed to be
ACMs as a result of the inspection:
FTC01 – Floor Tile & Assoc. Mastic, 12"x12" black with white specs - black
mastic (mastic only)
FTC02 – Floor Tile & Assoc. Mastic, 12"x12" green with white mottling - black
mastic (tile only)
RT01 – Roofing Tar, 1/4" black sticky, associated with layer of silver paint
applied roof flashing
TS01 – Textured Surfacing, white heavy knockdown
TS02 - Textured Surfacing, white light orange peel
The inspection of the building revealed the presence of the following one (1) material
found to contain a trace (less than or equal to one percent) amount of asbestos:
CDW01 – composite drywall, tape, and joint compound, 1/2” white chalky,
fibrous with tan paper. 0.02% – 0.245% chrysotile (composite)
Appendix B and C of this report contains the technical information, quantities, and
locations of the confirmed ACM and materials containing trace amounts of asbestos.
6 LEAD-BASED PAINT SCREENING FINDINGS
XRF screening results did not identify any components which contained lead above the
HUD action level of 1.0 mg/cm2. Appendix D of this report contains a summary table
and the detailed technical information concerning the LBP screening.
7 REGULATED BUILDING MATERIAL FINDINGS
The inspection of the building identified several Regulated Building Materials (RBMs)
that require proper management. These items and the approximate quantity include:
Fluorescent lamps 98 each
Potential polychlorinated biphenyl containing light ballasts 49 each
A summary table included in Attachment D of this report provides the detailed locations
of the RBMs found in the building.
8 RECOMMENDATIONS
Regulated ACMs (RACMs) are defined as any friable material and non-friable asbestos
materials that have a high probability of becoming friable during normal demolition
operations (that are performed in accordance with EPA NESHAPS demolition guidance).
Non-regulated ACMs (non-RACMs) are those non-friable materials likely to remain non-
friable during normal demolition operations. EPA and CDPHE regulations require
proper removal and disposal of all RACMs prior to demolition operations. EPA and
CDPHE regulations allow non-RACMs to remain in place during demolition, provided
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
WA-002011-0027-10TTO 208 N Howes - Building Insp Rpt 9
the methods do not render the material friable and they may not be subject to sanding,
grinding, cutting or abrading during the demolition process, and allow these materials to
be disposed as normal demolition debris.
It is recommended that the following materials be removed prior to initiating demolition
activities:
TS01 – Textured Surfacing, white heavy knockdown
TS02 - Textured Surfacing, white light orange peel
Although not required by regulation, it is recommended that the remaining ACMs (non-
RACMs), and trace materials be removed by a general abatement contractor (GAC) prior
to initiating demolition activities. A GAC can provide trained staff and use appropriate
work practices and engineering controls to remove the materials and limit potential
exposure to asbestos and lead. However, if these materials are not removed by a GAC,
the demolition contractor/personnel should be made aware of the presence of these
materials along with the material containing a trace amount of asbestos prior to beginning
demolition activities and comply with all current OSHA regulations for employee
exposure to asbestos and lead. In addition, the demolition contractor must comply with
applicable EPA NESHAP asbestos emission control regulations for demolition of
structures containing ACMs. These materials may not be subject to sanding, grinding,
cutting or abrading during the demolition process.
The east exterior wall was inspected to determine if block filler insulation was present
within the wall cavity. Block filler insulation was not observed within the east wall
cavity. Due to interior/exterior finishes and since the building was occupied, the interior
of the north, south, and west walls were not accessible for inspection. The interior of
these walls should be inspected prior to demolition activities that would impact the walls.
The demolition contractor/personnel should be made aware of the presence and location
of lead-containing materials and comply with all current OSHA regulations for employee
exposure to lead, as well as waste disposal requirements.
All identified RBMs which will be impacted during demolition activities should be
removed and recycled or disposed of by properly trained and qualified personnel in order
to comply with all current EPA, DOT, and OSHA regulations for waste transportation
and disposal, as well as worker protection requirements.
Depending on the final deposition of the structure and what materials are abated an
Asbestos Abatement Work Plan, daily air monitoring, daily oversight, final visual
inspections, and final clearance air sampling may be warranted.
This document is not to be used as a design or bid document for the removal, repair,
encapsulation, enclosure, or Operations and Maintenance (O&M) of asbestos containing
materials. EPA and state accredited individuals from our firm can prepare a scope of
work, bid documents, removal, and repair methods/procedures, specifications, designs
and O&M plans, if desired.

9 LIMITATIONS
WALSH performed these services in a manner consistent with the level of care and
expertise exercised by members of the asbestos inspection, lead screening, and RBM
assessment profession. WALSH does not imply or guarantee that every potential
asbestos-containing material, lead painted component or RBM on or in the building has
been identified. Historically, asbestos has been added as a component to over three
thousand materials and products produced in the United States. In addition, LBP was
used for many years as a key ingredient in commercially available paints and coatings.
The inspection was intended to identify those accessible materials that were reasonably
suspect and that were most likely to contain asbestos, lead, or hazardous constituents in
quantities subject to regulation, based on existing industry and regulatory standards.
Often materials cannot be assessed (sampled) due to physical constraints encountered
(locked rooms, enclosed areas, etc.). The areas that were inaccessible at this location are
listed below.
Inaccessible areas (i.e. under foundation, inside wall cavities, etc.)
Inside sealed containers (i.e. drums, ductwork, tanks, etc.)
Drawings and diagrams included in this report are proportional and scales are
approximate. Material quantities for confirmed and assumed ACMs and trace materials
are approximate.
The accuracy and reliability of environmental studies are a reflection of the number and
type of samples taken and extent of the analyses conducted, and are thus inherently
limited to and dependent upon the resources expended. An independent laboratory
performed laboratory analysis. Walsh is not responsible for the accuracy of data
provided by others.

Note: Mixed ACM/Trace applies drywall joint compound (not used as a surfacing material) that contains greater than 1% asbestos (and is classified as ACM for direct
impact to the joint compound such as sanding or drilling into the joint compound), but is less than 1% asbestos when analyzed as a "composite" sample with the associated
non-asbestos drywall (and is classified as Trace Asbestos as allowed by EPA and CDPHE for indirect impact wall demolition with removal of drywall and joint compound
together). OSHA does not recognize composite sample analysis, and will be considered ACM for OSHA compliance purposes. Refer to report conclusions and
recommendations for additional information pertaining to Mixed ACM/Trace material.

Executive Summary
This Letter of Findings provides an overview of the site inspection of the Fort Collins‐
owned building, located at 212 Laporte Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado. Matt Zoccali,
an employee of the City of Fort Collins, conducted site inspections for asbestos‐
containing materials (ACM) on May 11 and 16, 2012.
The commercial structure, formerly occupied by Abraxis Art Glass, Inc. includes
approximately 5,830 square feet of space. The building is currently unoccupied, but is
planned for conversion into office spaces for use by the City of Fort Collins Office of
Sustainability.. A site inspection of the building was conducted, based on information
provided by Operations Services Facility Project Manager, Ethan Cozzens. The building
interior was inspected and bulk samples of suspect materials were collected and
submitted to an analytical laboratory for analysis. This Letter of Findings presents the
results of the inspection.
Matt Zoccali performed the inspection subject to federal, state and local requirements.
The data gathered from the visual inspection, collection of bulk samples of accessible
building materials, and the interpretation of analytical results is intended to provide
information that meets federal, state and local requirements for identifying the presence
of ACMs.
A material is considered ACM if the asbestos content, as determined by laboratory
analysis, is greater than one percent. The inspection and lab analysis revealed one (1)
sample from suspect materials were returned with a “trace” result, meaning less than or
equal to 1% asbestos fibers were observed in the sample. Following standard protocol,
staff requested additional point‐count laboratory analysis on the sample identified
having trace amounts of asbestos fibers. Results from the point count were returned as
having less than 0.25 % asbestos fibers. Due to limitations of non‐destructive sampling
techniques, one (1) suspect building material at 4 locations, a grey cement pipe
associated with the internal heating system, is assumed to contain asbestos fibers.
Review of previous facility inspection and laboratory analysis records revealed the
presence of one (1) building material, paper pipe insulation, which contains greater
than one percent asbestos fibers.
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations currently require the removal of
both the confirmed and assumed ACM prior to commencing renovation activities.
212 Laporte‐Abraxis Glass (ACM) Report
May 21, 2012
CDPHE and EPA do not require materials containing less than or equal to 1% asbestos
fibers be removed prior to renovation activities. However, the general contractor, sub‐
contractors and City staff must be made aware of the presence of this material prior to
renovation activities commencing. Compliance with all U.S. Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) employee exposure regulations is required.
Additionally, the contractor and must comply with the National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) asbestos emission control standards for
renovation of structures containing ACMs.

212 Laporte‐Abraxis Glass (ACM) Report
May 21, 2012
1. Introduction
1.1 Background
This Letter of Findings provides an overview of the site inspection of the Fort Collins‐
owned building, located at 212 Laporte Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado. Matt Zoccali,
an employee of the City of Fort Collins, conducted site inspections for asbestos‐
containing materials (ACM) on May 16 and 19, 2012.
The commercial structure, formerly occupied by Abraxis Art Glass, Inc. includes
approximately 5,830 square feet of space. The building is currently unoccupied, but is
planned for conversion into office spaces for use by the City of Fort Collins Office of
Sustainability. The building will be occupied by City staff for approximately 8 hours per
day. A site inspection of the building was conducted, based on information provided by
Operations Services Facility Project Manager, Ethan Cozzens. The building interior was
inspected and bulk samples of suspect materials were collected and submitted to an
analytical laboratory for analysis.
Matt Zoccali performed the inspection subject to federal, state and local requirements.
The data gathered from the visual inspection, collection of bulk samples of accessible
building materials, and the interpretation of analytical results is intended to provide
information that meets federal, state and local requirements for identifying the presence
of ACMs. The sampling and inspection process was conducted in accordance with the
following standards:
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) Regulation
No. 8
United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)‐ 40 CFR 61 Part M
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) asbestos regulations‐ 29
CFR 1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CFR 1910 Parts 134 and 1001
1.2 Regulatory Compliance‐ EPA, NESHAP, OSHA and CDPHE Programs
ACMs identified in this report are subject to the NESHAP Regulations for Asbestos (40
CFR 61 Part M) and CDPHE Regulation No. 8. CDPHE is responsible for administering
the EPA NESHAP program in Colorado. ACMs are also subject to OSHA Standards for
Asbestos (29 CFR 1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CRF 1910 Parts 134 and 1001).
212 Laporte‐Abraxis Glass (ACM) Report
May 21, 2012
Materials containing one percent asbestos of less may be subject to OSHA regulations if
air concentrations sampled during demolition/renovation activities are at or above the
permissible exposure limit (PEL) of 0.10 fibers per cubic centimeter (f/cc) as an eight‐
hour time weighted average or the excursion limit of 1.0 f/cc as averaged over a 30‐
minute sampling period.
Revised OSHA regulations for General Industry (29 CFR 1910 Part 1001) and the
Construction Industry (29 CFR 1926 Part 1101) include the following provisions for the
communication of hazards to building owner employees (or by the sub contractor to
subcontractor employees):
Employer must inform housekeeping/maintenance employees and the
subcontractors whether building components they maintain may expose them to
asbestos.
Building owner shall maintain records concerning the presence, location, and
quantity of ACMs in the building for the duration of ownership or occupancy,
and records shall be transferred to successive owners
Where a building owner of employer identifies ACMs, labels or signs shall be
affixed or posted so employees will be notified of what materials contain
asbestos. These signs or labels shall be placed on materials or in areas where
they will be noticed by employees who are likely to be exposed such as entrances
to mechanical rooms and pipe chases.
2 Methodology and Scope of Work
The inspection of building materials was performed in accordance with EPA and
CDPHE regulations. Asbestos inspection activities were performed by CDPHE‐
accredited personnel. Certifications are included in Attachment 2.
2.1 Asbestos Inspection Methodologies
The scope of the asbestos inspection was to identify ACM and included the following
steps:
Review of site and proposed renovation plans with City of Fort Collins
Operation Services representative (Ethan Cozzens)
Visual inspection of all accessible areas of the equipment and associated pipes,
ductwork and insulation to identify suspect materials
Determination of friability by touching all accessible suspect material
Collection of bulk samples of suspect material. Materials were submitted for
laboratory analysis by polarized light microscopy (PLM).
212 Laporte‐Abraxis Glass (ACM) Report

Review of previously conducted building inspection and associated sampling
records.(Included in Attachment 1)
2.1.1 Homogenous Areas
A homogenous area (material) is defined as an area containing a material that appears
similar throughout with regard to color texture, and date of application. The inspection
of the interior and exterior of the building included the following building systems:
Ceiling and Drywall Systems
HVAC/Mechanical Systems
Flooring Systems
Structural Systems
Homogenous materials that were inspected but not suspected to contain asbestos are
not included in this report. Such materials include concrete, wood and plastic products.
2.2 Homogenous Materials Identification
A visual inspection/walk‐through of the facility was used as the basis in determining
homogenous materials at the location. Each type of homogenous material was assigned
an alpha numeric code to identify the different varieties of suspect building materials.
(Please see field sheet in Attachment 1)
2.3 Sampling Strategy
The bulk sampling strategy used to determine the appropriate number of samples to be
collected of each suspected material was developed using requirements of the AHERA
regulation and are summarized in the table below:

Inspector’s Discretion
The City inspector collected bulk samples in a random and representative manner.
Samples were collected by obtaining a sample that included all layers within the
212 Laporte‐Abraxis Glass (ACM) Report
May 21, 2012
suspected material. Each sample was identified and documented on field sampling
worksheets; please see Attachment 1 for field sampling worksheets. Upon completion
of the sample collection, the numerical identification information was transferred to a
chain of custody document to accompany the samples to the analytical laboratory. The
chain‐of‐custody forms can be found in Attachment 1.
2.4 Laboratory Analysis for Asbestos
The bulk samples were submitted for analysis to Reservoirs Environmental, Inc.
Reservoirs Environmental, Inc. is an accredited laboratory by EPA’s National Voluntary
Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). Analysis of the bulk samples was
performed using PLM to determine asbestos type and content. The PLM analyses are
reported as percent asbestos by weight and by a calibrated visual estimation. Copies of
the laboratory results and chain‐of‐custody documentation are included in Attachment
1.
3 Asbestos Inspection Findings
Twenty‐nine (29) bulk samples were collected from multiple suspect materials at the
location. A material is considered ACM if the asbestos content, as determined by
laboratory analysis, is greater than one percent. The inspection and lab analysis
revealed one (1) sample from suspect materials were returned with a “trace” result,
meaning less than or equal to 1% asbestos fibers were observed in the sample.
Following standard protocol, staff requested additional point‐count sampling on the
sample identified having trace amounts of asbestos fibers. Results from the point count
were returned as having less than 0.25 % asbestos fibers. Due to limitations of non‐
destructive sampling techniques, one (1) suspect building material at 4 locations, a grey
cement pipe associated with the internal heating system, is assumed to contain asbestos
fibers.
Review of previous facility inspection records, performed by a Colorado‐certified
Building Inspector, revealed bulk sampling of one (1) building material, paper pipe
insulation that was confirmed to contain greater than one percent asbestos fibers.
4 Recommendations
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations currently require the removal of
both the confirmed and assumed ACM prior to commencing renovation activities.
212 Laporte‐Abraxis Glass (ACM) Report
May 21, 2012
The paper pipe insulation identified at the location was observed to be in damaged
condition and must be repaired or removed by a CDPHE‐licensed General Abatement
Contractor (GAC). Additionally, the cement pipe associated with the internal heating
system, which is assumed to contain asbestos fibers, should be removed by a GAC prior
to renovation activities commencing.
CDPHE and EPA do not require materials containing less than or equal to 1% asbestos
fibers be removed prior to renovation activities. However, the general contractor, sub‐
contractors and City staff must be made aware of the presence of this material.
Compliance with all U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
employee exposure regulations is required. Additionally, the contractor and must
comply with the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
asbestos emission control standards for renovation of structures containing ACMs.
5 Limitations
Inspections conducted by City of Fort Collins representatives intended to identify those
accessible materials that were reasonably suspect to contain asbestos. Asbestos has
been added to over 3,000 products produced in the United States. This inspection does
not guarantee that every potential ACM at this location has been identified and
sampled.

WALSH performed the inspection on December 4, 2007.
The structure at the Site is divided into three areas; a training/workout area with
associated locker rooms, an evidence storage area, and garages. The interior of the
evidence storage area and garages were not accessible at the time of the inspection and
therefore were not inspected.
WALSH performed the inspection subject to federal, state, and local requirements. The
data gathered from the visual inspection, collection of bulk samples of accessible
building materials, and the interpretation of analytical results is intended to provide
information that meets federal, state, and local requirements for identifying the presence
of ACMs.
A material is considered ACM if the asbestos content is greater than one percent. The
inspection and lab analysis identified eight (8) building materials that contain greater
than one percent asbestos. One material was assumed to contain asbestos.
The following materials were confirmed or assumed to contain asbestos:
• CDW03 – Joint compound layer of drywall system
• CP01 – Light gray cement pipe
• CP02 – Gray cement pipe
• MS01 – Beige semi-pliable sealant
• OT01 – White malleable material
• TS03 – White sprayed on light texture
• WC01 – Light olive malleable window caulking
• WG01 – Very light gray hard window glazing
• RSH01 – Black roof sheeting
The ACMs found to be present at the Site were generally observed to be in good
condition. Current EPA and State of Colorado regulations require the removal of CP01 –
light gray cement pipe, CP02 – gray cement pipe, and TS03 – white sprayed on light
texture prior to renovation or demolition. The remainder of the ACMs may require
removal prior to initiating demolition/renovation activities that will impact these
materials, depending on the type of disturbance. If it is determined that these materials
will not be impacted during renovation and they are not abated, WALSH recommends
that the owner retain a qualified environmental consulting firm to draft an Operations and
Maintenance (O&M) Program for the asbestos containing material present at the Site.

INSPECTION FOR ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIALS
CITY OF FORT COLLINS POLICE ANNEX
230 LAPORTE AVENUE
FORT COLLINS, COLORADO
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
This report provides an overview of the inspection of the City of Fort Collins Police
Annex (the Site) located at 230 LaPorte Avenue in Fort Collins, Colorado. Walsh
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC (WALSH) was contracted by the City of
Fort Collins to conduct an inspection for asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).
WALSH performed the inspection on December 4, 2007.
The structure at the Site is divided into three areas; a training/workout area with
associated locker rooms, an evidence storage area, and garages. The interior of the
evidence storage area and garages were not accessible at the time of the inspection and
therefore were not inspected.
The data gathered from the visual inspection of the structure, collection of bulk samples
of accessible suspect building materials, and the interpretation of analytical results is
intended to provide information that meets federal, state, and local regulatory
requirements for the presence of ACMs. The sampling and inspection process was
conducted in accordance with the following standards:
• Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) - 40 CFR 763 Subpart E
763.80 to 763.99
• Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) Regulation No. 8
• United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) – 40 CFR 61 Part M
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) asbestos regulations - 29
CFR 1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CFR 1910 Parts 134 and 1001
1.2 Regulatory Compliance - EPA, NESHAP, OSHA, and State Programs
ACMs identified in this report is subject to the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) NESHAP Regulations for Asbestos (40 CFR 61 Part M) and the CDPHE
Regulation No. 8 (Reg. 8) "The Control of Hazardous Air Pollutants.” CDPHE is
responsible for administering the EPA NESHAP program in Colorado. ACMs are also
subject to OSHA Standards for Asbestos (29 CFR 1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CFR
1910 Parts 134 and 1001). Materials containing one percent or less asbestos may be
subject to OSHA regulations if air concentrations sampled during demolition/renovation

activities are at or above the personal exposure limit (PEL) of 0.10 fibers per cubic
centimeter (f/cc) or the excursion limit of 1.0 f/cc.
Revised OSHA regulations for General Industry (29 CFR 1910 Part 1001) and the
Construction Industry (29 CFR 1926 Part 1101) include the following provisions for
communication of hazards to building owner employees (or by the subcontractor to
subcontractor employees):
• Employer must inform housekeeping/maintenance employees and subcontractors
(plumbers, electricians, roofers, HVAC technicians, etc.) whether building
components they maintain may expose them to asbestos
• Building owner shall maintain records concerning the presence, location, and quantity
of ACMs in the building for the duration of ownership or occupancy, and records
shall be transferred to successive owners
• Where a building owner or employer identifies ACMs, labels or signs shall be affixed
or posted so employees will be notified of what materials contain asbestos. These
signs or labels shall be placed on materials or in areas where they will be noticed by
employees who are likely to be exposed such as entrances to mechanical rooms, pipe
chases, or electrical cabinets that embody ACMs
2 METHODOLOGY/PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF WORK
The inspection of building materials was performed in accordance with EPA, AHERA,
and other regulatory and applicable industry standards, including NESHAP, OSHA
regulations, as well as CDPHE asbestos regulations. Asbestos inspection activities were
performed by AHERA and State of Colorado accredited personnel. Consultant
certifications are included in Appendix A.
2.1 Asbestos Inspection Methodology
The scope of the asbestos inspection was to identify ACM and included the following
steps:
• Review of site drawings and records (if available)
• Review of previous asbestos inspection reports (if available)
• Visual inspections of all accessible areas of the building to identify suspect materials
• Determination of friability by touching all accessible suspect material
• Development of a sampling plan for each material based on the homogeneous
material type, friability, accessibility, and location. Homogeneous and non-
homogeneous material samples were submitted for laboratory analysis by Polarized
Light Microscopy (PLM), select confirmation analyses are performed by Point Count
Methods
f:\walsh documents\projects\asbestos - lead\city of fort collins\cofc police annex\7330-010 police annex asb insp rpt.doc.12.21.07 2
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
Homogeneous Areas The following building systems were inspected to identify
suspected homogeneous materials:
• Ceiling Systems
• Electrical Systems
• Flooring Systems
• Structural Systems
• Thermal/Mechanical Systems
• Wall/Partition Systems
• Miscellaneous Systems
A homogeneous area (material) is defined as an area containing a material that appears
similar throughout with regard to color, texture, and date of application.
Homogeneous materials that were inspected, but not suspected to contain asbestos, are
not included in this report. Such materials include concrete, carpet, fiberglass, wood, and
rubber or plastic products.
2.2 Homogeneous Material Identification
Each type of suspect homogeneous material was assigned an alpha numeric code which
consisted of an alpha material code, followed by a number to identify the different
varieties of that suspect building material. Material size, thickness, substrate, friability,
location, and quantity were recorded.
2.3 Homogeneous Material Types
The homogeneous material was classified into one of following three types of
homogeneous material descriptions:
• Surfacing Material refers to a wide range of trowel or spray-applied materials
typically used for acoustical or fireproofing purposes. Examples include spray-
applied fireproofing and acoustical texture ceilings
• Thermal System Insulation (TSI) refers to insulation that is applied to heating or
mechanical system components. Examples include pipe, tank, and boiler insulation
• Miscellaneous Materials refers to all other materials that do not fall into one of the
previously mentioned categories. Examples include floor tile, adhesives, and ceiling
tiles
Once the type of homogeneous material was determined it was then classified as friable
or non-friable. The EPA distinguishes between friable and non-friable forms of ACM.
Friable materials, when dry, can be crumbled or reduced to powder by hand pressure,
whereas non-friable materials cannot. Friable materials are more likely to release
particulate dust into the air, especially during renovation and demolition of the building.
Therefore, the distinction between friable and non-friable homogeneous material is
important.
f:\walsh documents\projects\asbestos - lead\city of fort collins\cofc police annex\7330-010 police annex asb insp rpt.doc.12.21.07 3
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
The EPA has identified two categories of non-friable ACM. EPA define Category I non-
friable ACM as packings, gaskets, resilient floor covering, and asphalt roofing products
containing more than one percent asbestos that, when dry, cannot be crumbled,
pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. Whereas Category II non-friable
ACM are any material, excluding Category I materials, containing more than one percent
asbestos that, when dry, cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand
pressure. EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
regulations require removal of all friable ACM and all non-friable ACM that would
become friable during demolition/renovation activities. Many non-friable ACMs may
remain in place during demolition/renovation provided demolition/renovation methods
do not render the material friable and the workers are adequately protected.
2.4 Sampling Strategy
The bulk sampling strategy used to determine the appropriate number of samples to be
collected of each suspect material is summarized on Table 1.

WALSH collected bulk samples of suspect materials in a random and representative
manner, as determined by the inspector. Samples were collected by obtaining a sample
that included all layers within the suspect material. Each sample was collected using
hand tools such as a razor knife, screwdriver or pliers, and immediately placed within a
sealed sampling container and labeled with a unique identification number. Each suspect
material was identified and catalogued on field sampling worksheets, the primary
working document. Figures depicting the sample locations are included in Appendix B,
interior and select exterior samples are on Figure 1, roof and select exterior samples are
on Figure 2. Upon completion of collection of samples, the numerical identification
information was transcribed to a chain-of-custody document to accompany samples
during transport to the laboratory.
2.5 Asbestos Sample Chain of Custody
At the time of collection, samples were labeled with an appropriate and unique number.
This number (along with other information such as sample location, color, texture, and
condition) was recorded on Asbestos – Homogeneous Material Sampling forms.
f:\walsh documents\projects\asbestos - lead\city of fort collins\cofc police annex\7330-010 police annex asb insp rpt.doc.12.21.07 4
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
The samples were shipped along with a completed chain of custody form to the
laboratory. Upon receipt, the laboratory arranged the samples in numerical order. If a
discrepancy between the number of samples and the chain of custody form existed, it was
noted and initialed on the form. Laboratory personnel signed the chain of custody form
to acknowledge receipt. The laboratory included the signed original copy of the chain of
custody form with the final analytical report for evidentiary purposes. Further, the
laboratory assigned a unique laboratory identification number to each sample received.
The laboratory labeled both the analytical report and the sample container with this
laboratory number for cross-reference purposes.
2.6 Laboratory Analysis for Asbestos
The bulk samples were submitted for analysis to Reservoirs Environmental, Inc. an
accredited laboratory by EPA’s National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program
(NVLAP). Analysis of the bulk samples was performed using PLM to determine
asbestos type and content. The PLM analyses results are reported as percent asbestos by
weight and by calibrated visual area estimation. Percent asbestos for separate layers and
total for the sample are delineated in the laboratory report. Unused portions of samples
are archived for six months unless the client requests special handling. Copies of the
laboratory results and chain-of-custody documentation for the bulk asbestos samples are
included in Appendix B.
3 ASBESTOS INSPECTION FINDINGS
Eighty seven (87) samples were collected from thirty four (34) suspect building
materials. Samples were submitted to the accredited laboratory for PLM analysis. A
total of eighty seven (87) samples were analyzed by PLM analysis. Four (4) homogenous
materials (a total of six (6) samples) that were analyzed by PLM methods required further
analysis utilizing the confirmatory point count analytical techniques. The EPA and
OSHA define ACM as material containing more than one percent asbestos or a material
that is assumed to contain asbestos. Twenty one (21) samples from eight (8) suspect
building materials were found to contain greater than one percent asbestos. The
following table summarizes information regarding the confirmed ACMs found as a result
of the inspection.

These materials are currently not regulated by the U.S. EPA or the State of Colorado.
However, if applicable, personnel should be made aware of the presence of these
materials prior to initiating demolition or renovation activities to comply with all current
OSHA regulations.
4 RECOMMENDATIONS
The ACMs found to be present at the Site were generally observed to be in good
condition. Current EPA and State of Colorado regulations require the removal of CP01 –
light gray cement pipe, CP02 – gray cement pipe, and TS03 – white sprayed on light
texture prior to renovation or demolition. The remainder of the ACMs may require
removal prior to initiating demolition/renovation activities that will impact these
materials depending on the type of disturbance. If it is determined that these materials
will not be impacted during renovation and they are not abated, WALSH recommends
that the owner retain a qualified environmental consulting firm to draft an Operations and
Maintenance (O&M) Program for the asbestos containing material present at the Site.
Implementation and strict adherence to an O&M program can effectively limit the
potential exposure of building occupants to airborne asbestos.
5 LIMITATIONS
WALSH performed these services in a manner consistent with the level of care and
expertise exercised by members of the asbestos inspection and assessment profession.
WALSH does not imply or guarantee that every potential ACM material on this property
has been identified or sampled. Historically, asbestos has been added as a component to
f:\walsh documents\projects\asbestos - lead\city of fort collins\cofc police annex\7330-010 police annex asb insp rpt.doc.12.21.07 7
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
over 3,000 materials and products produced in the United States. The inspection was
intended to identify those accessible materials that were reasonably suspect and those
materials that could be identified through limited destructive investigation, that were
most likely to contain asbestos in quantities subject to regulation in the event of
demolition of the existing buildings, based on existing industry and regulatory standards.
Often materials cannot be assessed (sampled) due to physical constraints encountered
(locked rooms, enclosed areas, etc.). The areas that were inaccessible at this location are
listed below.
• Evidence storage area and garages
• Inaccessible areas (i.e. under foundation, inside wall cavities, behind paneling,
beneath ceramic tiles and high pressure decorative laminate, etc.)
• Inside sealed containers (i.e. drums, tanks, ductwork, etc.)
Drawings and diagrams included in this report are proportional and scales are
approximate. Material quantities for confirmed ACM are approximate.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report provides an overview of the inspection of the City of Fort Collins Police
Annex (the Site) located at 230 LaPorte Avenue in Fort Collins, Colorado. Walsh
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC (WALSH) was contracted by the City of
Fort Collins to conduct an inspection for asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).
WALSH performed the inspection on February 4, 2008.
The structure at the Site is divided into three areas; a training/workout area with
associated locker rooms, an evidence storage area, and garages. The training/workout
area and exterior were inspected on December 4, 2007 and the results are provided in a
previous report prepared by WALSH. This report presents the results of the inspection of
the interior of the evidence storage area and garages.
WALSH performed the inspection subject to federal, state, and local requirements. The
data gathered from the visual inspection, collection of bulk samples of accessible
building materials, and the interpretation of analytical results is intended to provide
information that meets federal, state, and local requirements for identifying the presence
of ACMs.
A material is considered ACM if the asbestos content is greater than one percent. The
inspection and lab analysis identified three (3) building materials that contain greater
than one percent asbestos.
The following materials were confirmed to contain asbestos:
• FTC01- 9”x9” olive/gray floor tile
• WC01 – Light olive malleable window caulking
• WG01 – Very light gray hard window glazing
The ACMs found to be present at the Site were generally observed to be in good
condition. Depending on the type of disturbance, current EPA and State of Colorado
may require removal of these materials prior to initiating demolition/renovation activities
that will impact these materials. If it is determined that these materials will not be
impacted during renovation and they are not abated, WALSH recommends that the owner
retain a qualified environmental consulting firm to draft an Operations and Maintenance
(O&M) Program for the asbestos containing material present at the Site. Implementation
and strict adherence to an O&M Program can effectively limit the potential exposure of
building occupants to airborne asbestos.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
This report provides an overview of the inspection of the City of Fort Collins Police
Annex (the Site) located at 230 LaPorte Avenue in Fort Collins, Colorado. Walsh
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC (WALSH) was contracted by the City of
Fort Collins to conduct an inspection for asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).
WALSH performed the inspection on February 4, 2008.
The structure at the Site is divided into three areas; a training/workout area with
associated locker rooms, an evidence storage area, and garages. The training/workout
area and exterior were inspected on December 4, 2007 and the results are provided in a
previous report prepared by WALSH. This report presents the results of the inspection of
the interior of the evidence storage area and garages.
The data gathered from the visual inspection of the structure, collection of bulk samples
of accessible suspect building materials, and the interpretation of analytical results is
intended to provide information that meets federal, state, and local regulatory
requirements for the presence of ACMs. The sampling and inspection process was
conducted in accordance with the following standards:
• Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) - 40 CFR 763 Subpart E
763.80 to 763.99
• Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) Regulation No. 8
• United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) – 40 CFR 61 Part M
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) asbestos regulations - 29
CFR 1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CFR 1910 Parts 134 and 1001
1.2 Regulatory Compliance - EPA, NESHAP, OSHA, and State Programs
ACMs identified in this report is subject to the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) NESHAP Regulations for Asbestos (40 CFR 61 Part M) and the CDPHE
Regulation No. 8 (Reg. 8) "The Control of Hazardous Air Pollutants.” CDPHE is
responsible for administering the EPA NESHAP program in Colorado. ACMs are also
subject to OSHA Standards for Asbestos (29 CFR 1926 Parts 58 and 1101, and 29 CFR
7330-020 Police Annex Supplemental Asb Insp Rpt.doc 02.20.08 1
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
1910 Parts 134 and 1001). Materials containing one percent or less asbestos may be
subject to OSHA regulations if air concentrations sampled during demolition/renovation
activities are at or above the permissible exposure limit (PEL) of 0.10 fibers per cubic
centimeter (f/cc) as an eight hour time weighted average or the excursion limit of 1.0 f/cc
as averaged over a 30 minute sampling period.
Revised OSHA regulations for General Industry (29 CFR 1910 Part 1001) and the
Construction Industry (29 CFR 1926 Part 1101) include the following provisions for
communication of hazards to building owner employees (or by the subcontractor to
subcontractor employees):
• Employer must inform housekeeping/maintenance employees and subcontractors
(plumbers, electricians, roofers, HVAC technicians, etc.) whether building
components they maintain may expose them to asbestos
• Building owner shall maintain records concerning the presence, location, and quantity
of ACMs in the building for the duration of ownership or occupancy, and records
shall be transferred to successive owners
• Where a building owner or employer identifies ACMs, labels or signs shall be affixed
or posted so employees will be notified of what materials contain asbestos. These
signs or labels shall be placed on materials or in areas where they will be noticed by
employees who are likely to be exposed such as entrances to mechanical rooms, pipe
chases, or electrical cabinets that embody ACMs
2 METHODOLOGY/PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF WORK
The inspection of building materials was performed in accordance with EPA, AHERA,
and other regulatory and applicable industry standards, including NESHAP, OSHA
regulations, as well as CDPHE asbestos regulations. Asbestos inspection activities were
performed by AHERA and State of Colorado accredited personnel. Consultant
certifications are included in Appendix A.
2.1 Asbestos Inspection Methodology
The scope of the asbestos inspection was to identify ACM and included the following
steps:
• Review of site drawings and records (if available)
• Review of previous asbestos inspection reports (if available)
• Visual inspections of all accessible areas of the building to identify suspect materials
• Determination of friability by touching all accessible suspect material
• Development of a sampling plan for each material based on the homogeneous
material type, friability, accessibility, and location. Homogeneous and non-
homogeneous material samples were submitted for laboratory analysis by polarized
7330-020 Police Annex Supplemental Asb Insp Rpt.doc 02.20.08 2

light microscopy (PLM), select confirmation analyses are performed by point count
methods
Homogeneous Areas The following building systems were inspected to identify
suspected homogeneous materials:
• Ceiling Systems
• Electrical Systems
• Flooring Systems
• Structural Systems
• Thermal/Mechanical Systems
• Wall/Partition Systems
• Miscellaneous Systems
A homogeneous area (material) is defined as an area containing a material that appears
similar throughout with regard to color, texture, and date of application.
Homogeneous materials that were inspected, but not suspected to contain asbestos, are
not included in this report. Such materials include concrete, fiberglass, wood, and rubber
or plastic products.
2.2 Homogeneous Material Identification
Each type of suspect homogeneous material was assigned an alpha numeric code which
consisted of an alpha material code, followed by a number to identify the different
varieties of that suspect building material. Material size, thickness, substrate, friability,
location, and quantity were recorded.
2.3 Homogeneous Material Types
The homogeneous material was classified into one of following three types of
homogeneous material descriptions:
• Surfacing Material refers to a wide range of trowel or spray-applied materials
typically used for acoustical or fireproofing purposes. Examples include spray-
applied fireproofing and acoustical texture ceilings
• Thermal System Insulation (TSI) refers to insulation that is applied to heating or
mechanical system components. Examples include pipe, tank, and boiler insulation
• Miscellaneous Materials refers to all other materials that do not fall into one of the
previously mentioned categories. Examples include floor tile, adhesives, and ceiling
tiles
Once the type of homogeneous material was determined it was then classified as friable
or non-friable. The EPA distinguishes between friable and non-friable forms of ACM.
Friable materials, when dry, can be crumbled or reduced to powder by hand pressure,
whereas non-friable materials cannot. Friable materials are more likely to release
7330-020 Police Annex Supplemental Asb Insp Rpt.doc 02.20.08 3
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
particulate dust into the air, especially during renovation and demolition of the building.
Therefore, the distinction between friable and non-friable homogeneous material is
important.
The EPA has identified two categories of non-friable ACM. EPA define Category I non-
friable ACM as packings, gaskets, resilient floor covering, and asphalt roofing products
containing more than one percent asbestos that, when dry, cannot be crumbled,
pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. Whereas Category II non-friable
ACM are any material, excluding Category I materials, containing more than one percent
asbestos that, when dry, cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand
pressure. EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
regulations require removal of all friable ACM and all non-friable ACM that would
become friable during demolition/renovation activities. Many non-friable ACMs may
remain in place during demolition/renovation provided demolition/renovation methods
do not render the material friable and the workers are adequately protected.
2.4 Sampling Strategy
The bulk sampling strategy used to determine the appropriate number of samples to be
collected of each suspect material is summarized on Table 1.

WALSH collected bulk samples of suspect materials in a random and representative
manner, as determined by the inspector. Samples were collected by obtaining a sample
that included all layers within the suspect material. Each sample was collected using
hand tools such as a razor knife, screwdriver or pliers, and immediately placed within a
sealed sampling container and labeled with a unique identification number. Each suspect
material was identified and catalogued on field sampling worksheets, the primary
working document. A figure depicting the sample locations are included in Appendix B.
Upon completion of collection of samples, the numerical identification information was
transcribed to a chain-of-custody document to accompany samples during transport to the
laboratory.
7330-020 Police Annex Supplemental Asb Insp Rpt.doc 02.20.08 4
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
2.5 Asbestos Sample Chain of Custody
At the time of collection, samples were labeled with an appropriate and unique number.
This number (along with other information such as sample location, color, texture, and
condition) was recorded on Asbestos – Homogeneous Material Sampling forms.
The samples were shipped along with a completed chain of custody form to the
laboratory. Upon receipt, the laboratory arranged the samples in numerical order. If a
discrepancy between the number of samples and the chain of custody form existed, it was
noted and initialed on the form. Laboratory personnel signed the chain of custody form
to acknowledge receipt. The laboratory included the signed original copy of the chain of
custody form with the final analytical report for evidentiary purposes. Further, the
laboratory assigned a unique laboratory identification number to each sample received.
The laboratory labeled both the analytical report and the sample container with this
laboratory number for cross-reference purposes.
2.6 Laboratory Analysis for Asbestos
The bulk samples were submitted for analysis to Reservoirs Environmental, Inc. an
accredited laboratory by EPA’s National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program
(NVLAP). Analysis of the bulk samples was performed using PLM to determine
asbestos type and content. The PLM analyses results are reported as percent asbestos by
weight and by calibrated visual area estimation. Percent asbestos for separate layers and
total for the sample are delineated in the laboratory report. Unused portions of samples
are archived for six months unless the client requests special handling. Copies of the
laboratory results and chain-of-custody documentation for the bulk asbestos samples are
included in Appendix B.
3 ASBESTOS INSPECTION FINDINGS
Twelve (12) samples were collected from four (4) suspect building materials. Samples
were submitted to the accredited laboratory for PLM analysis. A total of twelve (12)
samples were analyzed by PLM analysis. One (1) homogenous material (a total of three
(3) samples) that was analyzed by PLM methods required further analysis utilizing the
confirmatory point count analytical techniques. The EPA and OSHA define ACM as
material containing more than one percent asbestos or a material that is assumed to
contain asbestos. Three (3) samples from one (1) suspect building material was found to
contain greater than one percent asbestos. In addition, two confirmed ACMs identified in
the previous inspection were found in this portion of the building. The following table
summarizes information regarding the confirmed ACMs found as a result of the
inspection.

impacted during renovation and they are not abated, WALSH recommends that the owner
retain a qualified environmental consulting firm to draft an Operations and Maintenance
(O&M) Program for the asbestos containing material present at the Site. Implementation
and strict adherence to an O&M Program can effectively limit the potential exposure of
building occupants to airborne asbestos.
5 LIMITATIONS
WALSH performed these services in a manner consistent with the level of care and
expertise exercised by members of the asbestos inspection and assessment profession.
WALSH does not imply or guarantee that every potential ACM material on this property
has been identified or sampled. Historically, asbestos has been added as a component to
over 3,000 materials and products produced in the United States. The inspection was
intended to identify those accessible materials that were reasonably suspect and those
materials that could be identified through limited destructive investigation, that were
most likely to contain asbestos in quantities subject to regulation in the event of
demolition of the existing buildings, based on existing industry and regulatory standards.
Often materials cannot be assessed (sampled) due to physical constraints encountered
(locked rooms, enclosed areas, etc.). The areas that were inaccessible at this location are
listed below.
• Inaccessible areas (i.e. under foundation, inside wall cavities, behind paneling,
beneath ceramic tiles and high pressure decorative laminate, etc.)
• Inside sealed containers (i.e. drums, tanks, ductwork, etc.)
Drawings and diagrams included in this report are proportional and scales are
approximate. Material quantities for confirmed ACM are approximate.

RE: Supplemental Microbial Evaluation, Illicit Drug Screening, and Methamphetamine
Sampling
City of Fort Collins – Police Annex Building, 230 LaPorte Avenue, Fort Collins,
Colorado 80521
WALSH Report #7330-020
Dear Mr. Ochsner:
Walsh Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC (WALSH) is pleased to submit this report
summarizing the supplemental microbial evaluation, illicit drug screening, and
methamphetamine sampling performed at the City of Fort Collins - Police Annex, 230 LaPorte
Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado. In December 2007, an initial evaluation was conducted in the
Training Center portions of the facility, but access to the Evidence Room was not available. On
February 4, 2008, WALSH personnel were provided access to the property to complete the
evaluation in the Evidence Room. The objective of the evaluation was to determine if microbial
growth or illicit drug residues are present in the Evidence Room portion of the building; to
further characterize the extent of methamphetamine identified in the Training Center during the
December 2007 site visit; and to determine if clean-up or other actions are necessary for the
protection of renovation workers and future occupants of the space.
METHODS
Interviews
During the site visit, no property representatives were available for interview. Before the site
visit, WALSH personnel interviewed Mr. Tracy Ochsner of the City of Fort Collins. Mr.
Ochsner provided information on the history of the building and previous reports from occupants
and maintenance personnel.
Site Inspection
On February 4, 2008, WALSH personnel responded to the property and performed a
walkthrough of the Evidence Room portions of the structure to become familiar with the affected
areas. The Evidence Room was found to consist of two separate sections designated as Evidence
Room #1 and Evidence Room #2. The property was vacant at the time of the site visit and
contents of the Evidence Room were previously removed. A representative moisture survey was

an ecology and environment company
performed throughout the interior of the building using a non-penetrating TRAMEX moisture
counter and a penetrating TRAMEX moisture meter.
Microbial Sampling
On February 4, 2008, WALSH personnel collected three (3) microbial tape lift surface samples
from the water damaged areas located on the west Evidence Room #1 wall (PA-020408-20F);
the northeast Evidence Room #1 ceiling (PA-020408-21F); and the south Evidence Room #2
ceiling (PA-020408-22F). All microbial samples were submitted under chain of custody to
EMLab P&K laboratories in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, for fungal identification. The sample
locations are indicated in Figure 1 at the end of the report.
Methamphetamine Sampling and Illicit Drug Screening
On February 4, 2008, WALSH collected a total of nineteen (19) surface wipe samples
throughout the Police Annex to be analyzed for methamphetamine or for various illicit drugs.
For each sample location, a 100 square centimeter (cm2) area was sampled using a pre-measured
template, sterile gauze, and laboratory grade methanol. The sterile gauze was wetted with the
methanol and the sampling surface was wiped with vertical and horizontal strokes in an S-
pattern. The gauze was then placed into pre-labeled sterile vials.
Eight (8) composite and discrete wipe samples were collected throughout the Training Room
portion of the building and six (6) composite and discrete wipe samples were collected
throughout the Evidence Room portion of the building. One (1) duplicate sample and one (1)
blank sample were also collected for quality control purposes. The samples were placed in
coolers and shipped on ice under chain of custody record to DataChem Laboratories, Inc. in Salt
Lake City, Utah for analysis of methamphetamine by Liquid Chromatography-Mass
Spectrometry analytical techniques.
WALSH also collected two (2) composite surface wipe samples from surfaces throughout the
Evidence Room portion of the building. One (1) blank sample was collected in the same manner
for quality control purposes. The samples were placed in coolers and shipped on ice under chain
of custody record to DataChem Laboratories, Inc. in Salt Lake City, Utah to be analyzed for
identification and quantification of methamphetamine, ephedrine, psuedophedrine, MDMA
(ecstasy), cocaine, and various other illicit drugs using a modified NMAM (NIOSH) 9106
analytical method.
RESULTS
Interviews
According to Mr. Ochsner, renovations are to be made to the Training Center and Evidence
Room portions of the building. Illicit drugs have been stored as evidence by the Police
Department in the Evidence Room side of the building. Janitorial staff indicated that odors were
detected in the training center portion of the building when marijuana evidence was stored in the
Evidence Room in the past. The City of Fort Collins requested WALSH to perform the

evaluation of the building to determine if any drug residues were present in the structure that
workers might come into contact with during cleanup or renovation activities.
Site Inspection
Training Center
The Training Center portion of the building was evaluated during the December 4, 2007, site
visit. No new conditions were identified in the Training Center portion of the building during
the February 4, 2008 site visit.
Evidence Room #1
Examination of Evidence Room #1 began in the entry area at the south side of the building.
Water stains consistent with historical roof leaks were observed on the underside of the roof deck
and trusses along the south and east walls. Historical water drip stains were observed extending
down the south and east walls from the roof. The plaster along the base of the west wall was
water damaged, deteriorated, and separating from the wall. The damage to the plaster along the
lower west wall extended from the entry area through the caged area to the west door leading
into the Training Center portion of the building. Similar damage was observed in the plaster
along the base of the east wall immediately north of the furnace. Water damage and microbial
growth was observed on the wallboard ceiling materials along the north wall. Water drip marks
and efflorescence were observed on the surface of the north block wall extending down from the
ceiling.
Rigid metal air ducts supplied by the furnace were located on the floor and extended along the
east wall. Rodent droppings were observed on and around the supply air ducts along the east
wall. The supply air duct connected to the south side of the furnace was damaged leaving a large
penetration on top of the duct. A possible entry point for rodents was identified along the base of
the east wall at the north end of the room behind the supply air duct. Evidence of heavy rodent
traffic and debris was observed in that area.
Shelving units were present along the east wall, west wall, and in the center of the room. All
contents were previously removed from the room with the exception of a few bicycles in the
entry area. Various stains, powders, and granules were observed on the shelves and floor
throughout the room.
Evidence Room #2
Evidence Room #2 was accessed through a door at the north end of Evidence Room #1.
Shelving units were present along the north, east, and west walls. All contents were previously
removed from the shelves throughout the room. Various stains, powders, and granules were
observed on the shelves and floor throughout the room. A refrigerator and ceiling mounted
heater were present in the northwest corner and a window mounted air conditioning unit was
present in the upper east wall.

Water damage, deterioration, and microbial growth were observed on the wallboard ceiling
materials along the south wall. Water damage was also observed on the ceiling along a
wallboard seam extending from the south wall toward the north wall.
Moisture Measurements
Elevated moisture was detected in the water damaged plaster materials along the west Evidence
Room #1 walls in the entry area and cage area. Elevated moisture was detected in the ceiling
along the north Evidence Room #1 wall, in the north Evidence Room #1 block wall, and in the
south Evidence Room #2 ceiling. The moisture survey results can be found at the end of the
report in Table 1 and Figure 3.
Microbial Sample Analysis
Analysis of the tape lift surface sample collected from the west Evidence Room #1 wall (PA-
020407-20F) revealed no microbial growth. The tape lift sample collected from the north
Evidence Room #1 ceiling (PA-020407-21F) revealed the presence of Ulocladium. The tape lift
sample collected from the south Evidence Room #2 ceiling (PA-020407-22F) revealed the
presence of Phialophora, Cladosporium, and Ulocladium. The tape lift microbial results can be
found at the end of the report in Attachment A.

CONCLUSIONS
Based on the visual evaluation, direct reading moisture measurements, and sampling results,
WALSH has made the following conclusions:
• The water damage observed on the underside of the roof deck and along the east and
south walls of Evidence Room #1 was consistent with historical roof leaks. The water
damage, microbial growth, and elevated moisture detected in the north Evidence Room
#1 ceiling and the south Evidence Room #2 ceiling were consistent with active roof
leaks. The water stains and efflorescence observed on the north Evidence Room #1 wall
were also consistent with the active roof leaks.
• The water damage and deterioration observed on the lower east Evidence Room #1
plaster wall materials was consistent with historical exterior moisture intrusion through
the east exterior partition.
• The water damage, deterioration, and elevated moisture detected in the lower west
Evidence Room #1 wall is opposite the bathrooms and other damaged areas observed in
the Training Center portion of the building. No plumbing sources were present on the
Evidence Room portion of the building and the observed damages were consistent with
moisture originating from the Training Center side of the structure.
• The methamphetamine sampling results revealed levels above CDPHE cleanup levels in
those samples collected from the shelves and floor in Evidence Room #1.
Methamphetamine was detected in samples collected from the Evidence Room #1 walls,
floor, and shelves; however, the levels were below CDPHE cleanup levels.
Methamphetamine was not present above method detection limits in any of the samples
collected in the Training Center portion of the building.
• The semi-quantitative illicit drug screen results revealed the presence of cocaine,
methamphetamine, tetrahydrocannabinol, and cannabinol in the composite samples
collected in Evidence Room #1 and Evidence Room #2. CDPHE has established
regulations for the evaluation and cleanup of methamphetamine clandestine laboratories
which may be used as guidance in determining if cleanup is necessary for this facility.
CDPHE has not established guidelines for cleanup of cocaine, tetrahydrocannabinol, or
cannabinol.
• Rodent droppings were observed in Evidence Room #1 and Evidence Room #2. The
species of rodent(s) present were not identified. However, droppings from some species
(e.g. deer mice) may be contaminated with Hantavirus.
• Additional findings pertaining to the Training Center portion of the facility are provided
in our report dated January 3, 2008.

RECOMMENDATIONS
WALSH recommends the following response and follow-up actions:
• WALSH recommends that steps be taken for remediation of the water damage and
microbial growth observed throughout the structure. Based on the microbial results, all
building materials containing water stains, elevated moisture or visible microbial growth
should be handled as if they contain microbial contamination. Demolition and
remediation procedures should be performed by a professional remediation contractor
and comply with the guidance documents published by the EPA1 and Institute of
Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC)2. WALSH recommends
preparation of a detailed remediation protocol based on information gathered during the
site visit to address the affected building materials including procedures for containment,
removal, decontamination, and post remediation verification. Complete removal of
fungal spores is not practical, as fungal spores are ubiquitous in outdoor and indoor
environments even in the absence of active microbial growth.
• Efforts should be made to complete the building envelope to prevent future moisture
intrusion through the roof and east exterior partition.
• Efforts should be made to identify the origin of the moisture release on the Training
Center side of the building that is releasing water and allowing it to migrate to the
Evidence Room side of the structure.
• All moisture sources should be identified and corrected before completion of the
remediation tasks. Failure to do so, will likely lead to further moisture intrusion/release
and additional water damage/microbial growth.
• If the remediation of affected areas requires the disturbance of asbestos-containing
building materials, then abatement procedures must satisfy applicable federal, state, and
local regulations.
• Based on the methamphetamine sample results, WALSH recommends that Evidence
Room #2 be decontaminated by personnel donning appropriate personal protective
equipment according to CDPHE guidelines. WALSH also recommends that Evidence
Room #1 be decontaminated; however, methamphetamine levels do not exceed those
requiring personnel to follow CDPHE standards. If requested, then WALSH can prepare
a detailed remediation protocol for decontamination to conform to CDPHE guidelines.
• WALSH recommends that post-cleanup sampling be performed in Evidence Room #2
according to the CDPHE guidelines to insure that decontamination was successful.
• Efforts should be made to rodent proof the structure to prevent future intrusion and
infestation. It should be assumed that the mouse dropping are contaminated with
Hantavirus. The HVAC supply ductwork connected to the Evidence Room #1 furnace
should be removed and replaced with new ducting and the HVAC unit should be

to CDC guidelines.

† Some comments may refer to the following: Most surfaces collect a mix of spores which are normally present in the outdoor environment. At
times it is possible to note a skewing of the distribution of spore types, and also to note "marker" genera which may indicate indoor mold
growth. Marker genera are those spore types which are present normally in very small numbers, but which multiply indoors when conditions
are favorable for growth.

Growth
Rating
Quantities of molds indicating growth are listed in the MOLD/FUNGAL GROWTH section. Judgement is used
in determining the amount of growth present in the sample. For example, if only one portion of the sample has
evidence of heavy growth, then it will receive a rating of heavy growth even though, strictly speaking, on a
percentage basis of the entire sample, the amount of growth is low.

Growth)
Evidence of very heavy growth observed on the sample

mycelial and/or with their sporulating structures found
to be nearly confluent in the majority of the
microscopic fields examined.
Areas of very heavy growth detected by the presence of
spores of one type seen with underlying mycelial and/
or with their sporulating structures in the bulk sample.
Miscellaneous Spores
Slides/specimens are examined for the presence of mold spores and pollen, noting the quantities and distribution of spore types
found. A designation of 'normal trapping' is made when a mix of spore types is present with the same general distribution as is
usually found outdoors. In other words, the biological component of the sample surface is like that found everywhere. Types of
spores present would include basidiospores (mushroom spores), myxomycetes (slime molds), plant pathogens such as
ascospores, rusts and smuts, and a mix of saprophytic genera with no particular spore type predominating. Many of these spore
types would not be found growing indoors on building materials since many plant pathogens require living plants for growth,
and mushrooms require compost, leaf duff of various types, or associations with roots of certain trees, etc. Due to these factors,
when a mix of spores seen include these types as well as pollen, the rational source is the outside air, rather than indoor mold
growth. The numbers of miscellaneous spores seen are graded and described as shown below as none, very few, few, variety, and
wide variety.
