In residential buildings of four or fewer units if more than 32 square feet of any surface coverage (e.g., gypsum wallboard or drywall and associated applied surfacing materials/textures, acoustic sprays, joint compounds, plaster, etc.), 50 feet of asbestos covered or asbestos insulated pipe or any material which would fill a 55-gallon drum—if these materials are going to be disturbed or removed—an asbestos inspection is required 2 by a state certified asbestos building inspector. For buildings with more than four residential units (considered public), including commercial, public (including public access areas to a residential building), civic or industrial buildings, if more than 160 square feet of surfacing materials, 260 linear feet or more than 35 cubic feet of suspect ACM/ACBM is going to be disturbed, an asbestos inspection is required under NESHAP. County or City regulations may be more stringent. The regulations require an absolute minimum of 3 samples (EPA suggests 9) per homogenous suspect surfacing and TSI materials and an absolute minimum of 1 sample of homogenous miscellaneous materials or any number of "samples sufficient to determine whether a material is ACM" (Reg8.IV.D.3). More samples are required based on surface area or volume. For the contractor to proceed with disturbance, demolition, restoration or remodel/renovation the suspect materials have to be sampled and analyzed by a NVLAP accredited laboratory by polarized light microscopy (PLM) methods. OSHA compliance is required for all employers/employees no matter the quantity of asbestos present. CLIENT BACKGROUND Divide Creek Builders, Inc. hired HealthSafe Inspections, Inc. (hereinafter, HealthSafe) to perform an asbestos building inspection, bulk sampling and report for the complete demolition and disposal of the above addressed single-family ranch -style ground -level house and outbuildings and partial demolition of an historic log house -- the non -historic addition to this cabin and the interior materials of the historic cabin will be demolished and disposed of. The Client and property owner is Aspen Polo Partners, LLC. VISUAL INSPECTION & LABORATORY FINDINGS An inspection was conducted by Jim Baker of HealthSafe on August 17, 2017 with current ranch tenants present during the inspection. Max Fills of Divide Creek Builders, Inc. was present during the initial survey of the buildings. All suspect ACM/ACBM were identified and sampled. Those materials are the following: 1. House front porch roiled asphaltic roofing material, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at least one sample [sample 1]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 2. House front porch tar paper, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at least one sample [sample 2]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 3. House asphaltic composition shingles with a red granular coating, an original layer of roofing material on the south original house, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at least one sample [sample 3]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 4. House asphaltic composition shingles with a brown granular coating, an secondary newer layer of roofing material on the south original house, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at Ieast one sample [sample 4]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 3 5. House asphaltic composition shingles with a green granular coating, a primary original layer of roofing material on the north newer addition, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at least one sample [sample 5]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 6. House asphaltic composition shingles with a brown/black granular coating, a secondary newer layer of roofing material on the north newer addition, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at least one sample [sample 6]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 7. Pump house asphaltic composition shingles with a brown/black granular coating, a homogeneous miscellaneous material requiring at least one sample [sample 7]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 8. Window putty glazing, a miscellaneous material requiring at least one sample [sample 8]. The PLM analytical estimated results: 3% Chrysotile asbestos. This material is in non-friable, but poor condition. It could be rendered friable during a demolition. The windows with the glazing putty will have to be removed and disposed of separately from the other house materials prior to the mechanical demolition of the house. The total amount is less than one gallon of material. 9. House wall and ceiling bathroom homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system (classified as a miscellaneous material as a complete integral system) [sample 9]; these composite layered taped and joint compounded drywall materials are without an applied surfacing material/texture. The estimated surface area is more than 32 sf, but less than 300 sf, requiring a minimum of at least a single composite core sample of all drywall layers ("...number of samples sufficient to determine" ...if asbestos is present or not). The PLM analytical estimated results: less than, <1% Chrysotile asbestos in the joint compound with composite results <0.25% Chrysotile asbestos. This material will not require asbestos abatement prior to the demolition of the structure; however, OSHA regulations shall apply (see below). 10. House mud/entry room walls and ceiling drywall materials, a homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system [sample 10]; these composite layered taped and joint compounded drywall materials are on the ceiling and walls of the mud/entry area with a surfacing material/texture known as "knock-down". The estimated surface area is more than 32 sf, but less than 500 sf, requiring a minimum of at least a single composite core sample of all drywall layers ("...number of samples sufficient to determine" ...if asbestos is present or not). The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 11. House mud/entry room walls and ceiling with a homogeneous spray-applied and then troweled knock-down surfacing material/texture [samples 1I-13]. The estimated surface area is more than 32 sf, but less than 500 sf, requiring a minimum of at least three surfacing/texture material samples. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 12. House roller-applied surfacing material over particle board walls in the living room [samples 15-17]. The estimated surface area is more than 32 sf, but less than 1,000 sf requiring a minimum of three surfacing/texture materia! samples. The PLM analytical estimated results: <1% Chrysotile asbestos in samples 15 and 17 (none detected in sample 16)_ The positive samples 15 and 17 were Point Counted 4 with results of<.25% Chrysotile asbestos each. This material will not require asbestos abatement prior to the demolition of the structure; however, OSHA regulations shall apply (see below), 13. House brush -applied surfacing material/texture on the living room and hallway ceilings [samples 18-20]. The estimated surface area is more than 32 sf, but Iess than 500 sf, requiring a minimum of at least three surfacing/texture material samples. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 14. House master bedroom wall and ceiling homogeneous taped and joint compounded drywall system (classified as a miscellaneous material as a complete integral system without an applied surfacing material/texture [sample 21].

Log house entry, living room and bathroom taped and joint compounded drywall system with an applied knock -down surfacing materiaVtexture [sample 28]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 20. Log house entry, living and bathroom spray -applied then troweled knock -down surfacing material/texture [samples 30-32]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 21. Log house second floor attic taped and joint compounded drywall system without an applied surfacing material/texture [sample 33]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. 22. Log house exterior log caulking, a homogeneous material requiring a minimum of at least one sample [sample 34]. The PLM analytical estimated results: NONE DETECTED. The bulk samples were analyzed by PLM by a NVLAP accredited laboratory in accordance with Colorado State Regulation 8 for the presence of asbestos mineral fibers. See supporting Hayes Microbial Consulting, Inc. data report #17023466. 5 HEALTHSAFE CONCLUSIONS There is NO friable State regulated asbestos containing building materia! in any of the suspect building materials slated to be impacted by the demolition and disposal of the two houses and out buildings. NO permitted asbestos abatement will be required. However, the glazed windows will have to be removed and disposed of prior to demolition, as this glazing material could be rendered friable during a demolition. Also, asbestos verified to be less than 1% in some joint compound and some surfacing material is present. OSHA regulations shall apply when demolishing and disposing of these materials for worker protection and dust control. See EPA 40 CFR 763.121 Worker Protection Rule, OSHA 29 CFR 191 0.134 Respirator Protection Standard, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1001 General industry Standard and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101 Construction Standard regulations when dealing with asbestos hazards.
