"<p>The cove base adhesive and mastic taken from the pub, unit 219, unit 218, and laundry have tested negative for<br>asbestos. As the cove base removal was limited to approximately 25 linear feet in one area, one sample was<br>deemed sufficient to determine composition. It is important to note that these results apply only to the materials<br>observed and sampled within the restoration area and not to applications of putty or mastic elsewhere in the<br>building. Any mastic or putty found during restoration not otherwise referenced in this report must be assumed to<br>contain asbestos until further testing can be performed.<\/p>"
