The damaged plaster surface texture and vinyl asbestos tile are confirmed to be asbestos containing materials (ACM) and will require abatement as part of the restoration process. Due to the small amount of plaster surface texture that was disturbed within the stairway, upstairs bedroom, and bathroom area of the home, minor spill response will be required throughout the main level and upstairs level of the home. Work Scope and Methods The Base Scope for the home will include selective removal of the impacted ACM, as well as content clean up as described below: Abatement & Spill Response for Dwelling: • HEPA vacuum and/or wet wipe miscellaneous content items that are throughout the main level of the home and move these items into the storage unit that will be near the farm house (storage unit provided by the owner) • Remove and discard all carpet, carpet pad and tack strips from the main level and upstairs level of the home • Remove and discard approximately 965 square feet of asbestos tile from the kitchen, bathroom, and hallway areas of the main level • Remove and discard of approximately 200 square feet of ACM texture on plaster by performing selective demolition of cracked and damaged plaster from the front entryway and bathroom areas of main level and the staircase and bedroom ceilings of the upstairs level so that these areas may be patched to match plaster walls/ceilings that will remain in place • Perform spill response by wet wiping and HEPA vacuuming all wall, floor and ceiling surfaces of the family room, dining room, kitchen, all 4 bedroom areas and associated closets of the main level • Wipe and clean cabinets, countertops, windows and plumbing fixtures and remaining hard surfaces (doors, trim, walls, ceilings, etc.) that are throughout the main level and basement level • Perform final clearances for the interior main level and upstairs level of the home Most of the content items within the home will be moved to the storage unit. Risk Removal will be required to use HEPA filtered vacuum units and wet methods to clean and treat these items. Therefore, cardboard and paper items may be permanently impacted by the amended water solution and/or other cleaning products that may be used to treat these items. Although the gray/black foam and carpet adhesive were non -detect for asbestos contamination, the remnant foam and carpet adhesive will be removed from the hallway and order to remove the asbestos tile (tan and/or white color) that is trapped beneath this flooring. Similarly, multiple flooring layers exist within the kitchen and bathroom and will need to be detached and discarded in order to access the underlying asbestos tile. The clear tile adhesive may remain within the building, as long as the floor tile can be removed completely from the adhesive and the wood sub floor. If asbestos flooring cannot be removed without permanently damaging the wood sub floor, Risk Removal will notify the owner that the sub floor may need to be removed along with the asbestos flooring. The tile will be removed up to the edges of finished walls, base cabinets, and fixtures. Risk Removal assumes that the damaged and loose plaster can be removed from the surface of the wood lathe for the locations noted above. For areas where a plaster patch is needed, Risk Removal will apply a polymer -based encapsulating material to the edge of the plaster material. Also, Risk Removal will encapsulate plaster locations where hairline cracks and small chips may be present along the plaster substrate. Risk Removal may need to detach and set aside wood trim or other building materials that block access to the damaged plaster locations outlined above. The owner will be responsible for any patches or repair work that may be needed to refinish and repaint these substrate materials after the abatement. Risk Removal will be responsible removing all of the content items that are present within the building at the start of this abatement project. However, Risk Removal will not be responsible for inventorying these items prior to moving them into the storage unit. Also, large shelving units and hard surfaced furniture items may be left within the building during final clearance activities. Risk Removal will abate the ACM in accordance with applicable State and federal regulations and will dispose of the debris and material in an EPA -approved facility. Project Costs The cost to complete the Base Scope detailed above is $13,500.00 and includes the inspection, planning and project design, abatement labor, material, equipment, tool ; $2,000,000.00 general liability/pollution insurance, applicable permitting through the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE), hiring an independent hygienist to perform final air clearances, OSHA air monitoring and waste disposal at an EPA -approved site. Project Timinq The amount of ACM to be removed requires a permit with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. The permit requires a 10-day period from the time of permit application to the start of work on the project. Risk Removal is prepared to promptly submit the permit application, and any additional documentation that may be required by CDPHE, and set a mobilization date upon receipt of a notice to proceed. Clarifications The owner will provide adequate power and water needed to perform the abatement and spill response work. Risk Removal's base scope is limited to the selective demolition and removal of the asbestos containing materials as outlined above. Other locations, types of asbestos -containing materials, or removal and remediation of other hazardous materials have not been included Risk Removal's Base Scope of work and may require a change to this proposal. Replacement materials are not within Risk Removal's project scope. Risk Removal will not be responsible for sealing ceiling/wall cavities as part of this work scope. Also, the owner will be responsible for replacing any of the old wood trim that may be damaged when it is detached from these work areas. Risk Removal will need to attach poly sheeting on walls in order to build an effective containment. While every effort will be made to minimize paint damage when taking down the containment, it is not unusual for small patches of paint damage to occur. Risk Removal has not made provisions for spot, touch-up painting, if necessary, in its Base Scope proposal. During Risk Removal's mobilization, only certified personnel are authorized to enter the designated work area during active abatement and clearance testing. This proposal excludes performing any abatement work on the exterior of the home and a change order will be required if exterior spill response action is requested by the acting hygienist or the owner at time of abatement. Risk Removal employs only experienced, certified employees. Risk Removal completes all abatement work using state -of -the art practices and in full compliance with EPA, OSHA and State requirements.
