Scope
Aeris was retained by A. Thomas Construction Inc. to conduct an asbestos building survey limited to
the warehouse, reception area, and second floor office at 2700 Industrial Avenue S, Fort Fierce, FL
34946 on May 17, 2021. Aeris conducted a non-invasive site sampling of the specific areas, the
warehouse, reception area, and second floor office, as per the client's request. It should be noted that
the renovations have already been performed and sampling was performed on the remaining materials
still intact, if hidden materials are uncovered within wall cavities, crawlspaces, ceiling spaces, and/or
other inaccessible areas, additional assessment and sampling may be required. Areas outside of the
scope were not sampled and may contain additional suspect asbestos containing materials.
Purpose
A limited asbestos building survey was performed to report the analytical data obtained within the
property. Bulk sampling analysis was performed via Polarized light microscopy or PLM. The purpose
of the bulk sampling was to determine if asbestos containing materials, if any, are present.
As defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), asbestos containing materials
or ACM are materials that contain greater than 1% asbestos. ACM's are further categorized into friable
asbestos, category I non -friable, and category II non -friable. Below are the National Emissions
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) categories of asbestos with descriptions:
• Friable asbestos are any materials that contain greater than 1% asbestos and can be crumbled,
pulverized, or reduced to a powder by the pressure exerted from a human hand.
• Category I non -friable are materials that contain greater than 1% asbestos, but are not friable.
Materials that are part of this category are gaskets, resilient floor coverings, packing, and asphalt
roofing products.
• Category II non -friable are materials that contain greater than 1% asbestos, but are not friable
and are not part of category I non -friable.
Property Details
This property is a multi story, commercial property comprised of a block exterior with a stucco and
stone finish. For the purpose of this report, the front entrance faces south.

Methods/ Protocol
Sampling - Bulk sample of suspect asbestos containing materials (AEMs) was conducted in general
accordance with Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act [AHERA) 40 CFR 763. All samples were
sent to an independent accredited laboratory under chain of custody.
Introduction
Aeris performed this assessment in general accordance with the sampling protocol and methodology
of the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act [AHERA] 40 CFR 763, National Emissions
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants [NESHAP], and in accordance with the agreed upon scope of
work. The warehouse and second floor office have already undergone the renovations prior to
assessment.
Sampling
Asbestos bulk samples were collected and shipped to an accredited laboratory Aerobiology Laboratory
Associates, Inc. for analysis. Aerobiology Laboratory Associates, Inc. is accredited by the National
Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program [NVLAP) for selected test methods for bulk fiber analysis
(PLM).
Sampling of suspect AEM's was conducted in general accordance with AHERA 40 CFR 763
guidelines. Suspect AEM's were categorized in three types: surfacing material, thermal system
insulation, and miscellaneous material. Each material type was divided into homogeneous areas, which
are defined as materials with similar color, texture, and installation date. A minimum of three (3)
samples were collected from each homogeneous area.
AEM's are defined as building materials that contain greater than one percent [1%) asbestos fibers,
according to Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), and State of Florida Environmental Protection.
Six (6) samples were collected, and one (1) duplicate was taken for quality control purposes. Suspect
asbestos samples were analyzed using polarized light microscopy [PLM) with dispersion staining. The
PLM technique [EPA Method 600/R-93/116] allows the laboratory technician to distinguish between
different fibers and different types of asbestos fibers.

Conclusion
Aeris performed this assessment in general accordance with the sampling protocol and methodology
of the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) 40 CFR 766 and in accordance with the
agreed upon scope of work. The warehouse, reception area, and second floor office are the proposed
areas for renovations. The warehouse and second floor office have already undergone the renovations
prior to assessment. The sampling was performed on remaining materials that was intact.
Asbestos bulk sampling analysis via polarized light microscopy (PLM) identified that the drywall with
compound and tape and the ceiling system material samples from the warehouse, reception area, and
second floor office do not contain asbestos.

General Notes
• ND indicates no asbestos was detected; the method detection limit is I %.
• Trace or "< I" indicates asbestos was identified in the sample, but the concentration is less than I % and cannot be quantified without point counting.
• Samples identified as inhomogeneous (more than one layer) are separated into individual layers, and each layer is analyzed and reported separately.
•
All regulated asbestos minerals (i.e. chrysotile, amosite, crocidolite, anthophyllite, tremolite, and actinolite) were sought in every layer of each sample, but only those asbestos minerals detected are
listed. Amosite is the common name for the asbestiform variety of the minerals grunerite. Crocidolite is the common name used for the asbestiform variety of the mineral riebeckite.
• Tile, vinyl, foam, plastic,
and fine powder samples may contain
asbestos fibers of such small diameter (< 0.25 microns in diameter) that these fibers cannot be detected by PLM. For such
samples,
more sensitive analytical
methods (e.g. TEM, SEM, and XRD)
are recommended if greater certainty about asbestos content is required. Semi -quantitative bulk TEM floor tile analysis is
accepted
under NESHAP regulations.
• These results are submitted pursuant to Aerobiology Laboratory Associates, Inc.'s current terms and conditions of sale, including the company's standard warranty and limitation of liability
provisions. No responsibility or liability is assumed for the manner in which the results are used or interpreted.
• Unless notified in writing to return the samples covered by this report, Aerobiology Laboratory Associates, Inc. will store the samples for a minimum period of thirty (30) days before discarding. A
shipping and handling charge will be assessed for the return of any samples.
• Aerobiology does not guarantee the results of tape lifts, microvacs, wipe, and/or debris samples. Accurate analysis cannot be performed due to particle size, media used, and/or amount of material
given. Analysis of these materials should be preformed by a TEM. A result of ND does not indicate that the sample area does not contain asbestos. It means the analyst could not identify
asbestos in the specific sample for the reasons listed above.
Notes Required by NVLAP
• This report must not be used by the client to claim product certification, approval, or endorsement by NVLAP, NIST, or any agency of the Federal Government.
• This test report relates only to the items tested or calibrated.
• This report is not valid unless it bears the name of a NVLAP-approved signatory.
• Any reproduction of this document must include the entire document in order for the report to be valid.
