1.0- This was an inspection for suspect ACM (Asbestos Containing Material) for a remodel.
Element Environmental conducted a visible inspection for visible materials that would
be impacted during the remodel. This inspection was limited to the areas found in the
Description of the Sampling Area 7.0. Although sampling is destructive in nature, this
was a non-invasive inspection. It was of materials that were accessible. If other suspect
materials become visible/apparent during demolition or construction activities, work in
that area should be halted and more sampling/testing must take place, per Colorado
regulations. Any suspect materials that were not tested are to be assumed to contain
asbestos.
2.0- A limited bulk sampling of all suspect materials was conducted in accordance with
Colorado State Requirements. The minimum number of samples per homogenous areas
are as follows:
2.1- Surfacing Materials- <1,000 sq.ft.- Minimum of 3 samples
1,000 sq.ft.- 5,000sq.ft.- Minimum of 5 samples
>5,000 sq.ft. Minimum of 7 samples
2.2- Miscellaneous materials- Minimum of 2 samples
2.3- Thermal Systems Insulation (TSI)- Minimum of 3 samples
3.0- The purpose of the inspection is to identify materials that are homogenous. A
homogeneous area is defined as one which shares suspect material, texture, color,
location, and/or apparent time of construction. The materials are touched to determine
friability. Friable ACM is material that can be crushed or reduced to powder by hand
pressure. The friable materials are segregated into separate homogenous areas. The size
of the sampling area is determined. Samples are taken according to a random numerical
sequence of the subareas, following guidelines per the EPA Pink Book: Asbestos in
Buildings: Simplified Sampling Scheme for Friable Surfacing Materials.
4.0- Scott Roahrig, a Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment certified building
inspector, certification number: 29245, performed the inspection. The findings were
reviewed by Josh Johnson, a Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment
certified building inspector, certification number: 18401. Samples taken were sent to
CEI Labs in Cary, North Carolina. The samples were analyzed by PLM (Polarized Light
Microscopy) analysis. Per the CDPHE Regulation any sample that is found by a lab to be
trace, or <1% asbestos, is considered to be ACM material. This material would still be a
regulated material by CDPHE. The sample must have an additional “point count”
performed to be considered less than 1% and not be regulated by the CDPHE. The lab’s
documents with analyses and findings are found below.

8.0- CONCLUSION
The areas on the Table of Results in Black did not contain asbestos.
The areas on the Table of Results in Red contained asbestos:
• The Black and White 12 x 12 Vinyl Tile and Mastic
• The Black 12 x 12 VCT Tile with Yellow Carpet Glue
• The Black 12 x 12 VCT tile
These materials are considered non-friable. If the tile and mastic will be rendered friable by mechanical means,
then the removal of them is regulated by the CDPHE. If not, then the removal of them is regulated by OSHA. You
must consult your landfill to see if they will accept them and how they must be prepared. They may need to be
segregated from the other materials so that the landfill may accept them. Element Environmental recommends
that an abatement contractor remove these materials to ensure that the workers are trained and that the
materials are handled correctly.
Sincerely,
Scott Roahrig
