This document is a mold inspection report and remediation protocol for Joint Base Andrews (JBA), prepared by Northern Environmental Group LLC. The report details findings from a March 4, 2025 mold inspection conducted at multiple locations within the base, including the Chapel, Building #1794, and NAV Building. Laboratory analysis revealed significant mold growth in several areas, with particular concern for Stachybotrys (black mold), Cladosporium, and Penicillium/Aspergillus species.

The report outlines a comprehensive remediation protocol with three priority levels, requiring full containment, EPA-registered antimicrobial solutions, and specific procedures for each affected area. Key recommendations include investigating moisture sources, maintaining indoor humidity between 30-50%, cleaning HVAC systems, and implementing regular inspections. Priority areas include Room #3 in Building 1794 with heavy contamination, the NAV Building Office Room #119 coil with multiple mold species, and the Prayer Room ceiling with moderate Ulocladium contamination. The protocol emphasizes the use of qualified professionals, proper personal protective equipment, and post-remediation verification to ensure effective mold removal and prevent future growth.
