"<p><span>SCOPE OF WORK<\/span><\/p>\r\n<hr>\r\n<p>SCOPE OF INSPECTION<\/p>\r\n<p>2932 Chesterfield Ave., North Vancouver is a two story home constructed in 1959 that is set to be demolished.<br>The home has been unoccupied for multiple years and building materials have sustained damage due to<br>vandalism and various water leaks.<br>The majority of the lower level is finished in cedar planks and wood fibre tiles that are not suspected to contain<br>asbestos. Bath 3 and bed 4 on the lower level are finished in drywall that has tested negative for asbestos. The<br>upper level is finished in plaster, with a small area of ceiling texture in the living room. Both plaster and texture<br>coat have also tested negative.<br>Sheet vinyl in bath 2 has tested positive for asbestos, however as the area of application is under 100 ft\u00b2,<br>moderate-risk procedures may be implemented for its removal. Top layer vinyl tiles in bath 1 on the upper level<br>have tested positive for asbestos, as have vinyl tiles concealed in the lower level hallway. Both applications of<br>mastic adhesive have tested negative.<br>On the exterior, mastic adhering chimney flashing to the deck and roof has tested positive for asbestos. Based on<br>the age of the home, any other exterior mastics discovered during demolition must be assumed to contain<br>asbestos. Putty taken from wood frame windows throughout the home has tested negative.<br>Stucco finishing the upper half of the home was sampled and has tested negative, along with building paper and<br>tar shingle roofing.<br>If new materials are uncovered that are not referenced in this report, they are to be handled as a potential source<br>of asbestos until further testing and consultation suggest otherwise.<\/p>\r\n<p>METHODOLOGY<\/p>\r\n<p>Samples of materials suspected to contain asbestos were collected from accessible areas of the home for<br>laboratory analysis. A total of 32 bulk samples were collected from throughout the home during the survey and<br>submitted for analysis utilizing Polarized Light and Binocular Stereo Microscopy at an AIHA Proficient laboratory in<br>accordance with NIOSH 9002 methods.<br>Samples of gross painted interior and exterior surfaces were collected and submitted for analysis to determine<br>lead concentration. Sarcova Laboratories examined the samples using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy.<br>See NIOSH method 7082 for a complete overview.<\/p>\r\n<p>PROJECT MANAGEMENT<\/p>\r\n<p>Asbestos-containing materials were present within areas of the home sampled and tested during our inspection.<br>Only properly trained and certified personnel are authorized to handle the removal of hazardous materials. A<br>qualified abatement company must maintain public safety and implement an exposure control plan, submit sitespecific work procedures that mitigate risk, and remove and dispose of hazardous materials in a manner consistent<br>with WorkSafe BC Occupational Health & Safety Regulations as well as Special Waste and Regional municipality<br>regulations.<\/p>\r\n<table border=\"1\" xss=removed><colgroup><col xss=removed><\/colgroup>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>Hazardous and banned materials include but are not limited to: asbestos, drywall (banned from disposal),<br>Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), abandoned chemicals (gasoline, pesticides, herbicides, flammable and<br>combustable substances), all refrigerant found in cooling equipment, lead products, smoke detectors, mercury<br>containing switches, drug paraphernalia, etc.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>"
