Government and such purchasers or transferees, with the same force, effect and relative priority in time and right as if the lease had initially been entered into between such purchasers or transferees and the Government; provided, further, that the RECO and such purchasers or transferees shall, with reasonable promptness following any such sale or deed delivery in lieu of foreclosure, execute all such revisions to this Lease, or other writings, as shall be necessary to document the foregoing relationship.

6.8.8 Indoor Air Quality (JUL 2017)

The Lessor must control contaminants at the source and/or operate the space in such a manner that the indicator levels for carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and formaldehyde (CH2O), are not exceeded. The indicator levels for office area are as follows: CO less than 5 parts per million (PPM); CO2 - 700 PPM; CH2O -

0.027 PPM. All indoor air contaminant levels in leased space must be kept below appropriate OSHA regulations or

OSHA required consensus standards. Air quality and facility cleaning will be required and adequate to prevent the growth of mold, mildew and bacteria. Any visual evidence of these will require immediate sampling and remediation. Moisture/standing water must be controlled to prevent the growth of these.

During working hours, ventilation must be provided in accordance with the latest edition of ANSI/American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standard 62, Ventilation for Acceptable

Indoor Air Quality and ASHRAE Standard 55, Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy.

The Lessor shall promptly investigate indoor air quality (IAQ) complaints and must implement controls including alteration of building operating procedures (e.g., adjusting air intakes, adjusting air distribution, cleaning and maintaining heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, etc.). The FAA is responsible for addressing

IAQ problems resulting from its own activities.

The Lessor must provide SDS to the FAA facility manager and RECO for all chemicals cleaning solutions at least

24 hours prior to their use in the FAA spaces or other buildings that might affect air quality in the FAA space(s).

Materials should contain low or no Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and additional ventilation may be required when using chemicals and cleaning solutions.

6.8.9 Mold Growth Identification and Control (JUL 2016)

The Lessor must control mold growth and their sources including excessive levels of moisture and humidity.

Adequate air quality and facility cleaning is required to prevent the growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria. Any visual evidence requires immediate sampling and remediation by the Lessor.

Following a water-intrusion event, the Lessor must identify the water source and immediately implement water-extraction and -drying efforts. Once the water source is identified, the Lessor must take action to prevent additional water damage and ensure that permanent fixes are in place prior to build-back and restoring building materials.

Within 24-48 hours of water damage from clean water sources (e.g., water supply lines, rainwater, and snowmelt from rooftops), all building materials must be dried to a moisture level to prevent mold growth.

All porous materials contaminated with sewage or other Category 2 (e.g., washing machine overflows, toilet overflows, and non-feces waters) or 3 (sewage backups and overflows from beyond toilet traps, feces, floodwaters, and groundwater intrusion) water sources must be discarded. All non-porous material must be cleaned and disinfected.

Mold remediation and cleaning must be conducted using recognized industry methods and practices (e.g. Institute of

Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) S500 Standard and Reference Guide for Professional

Water Damage Restoration, IICRC-S520 Standard and Reference Guide for Professional Mold Remediation, 2008, and National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA): Assessment, Cleaning and Restoration of HVAC Systems, ACR 2006). State requirements concerning mold remediation contractors training and licensing must be followed.

The Lessor must coordinate with the FAA facility manager and RECO regarding all mold remediation operations.

The FAA must be afforded the opportunity to provide input in the mold remediation process. Biocides must be used cautiously and in accordance with EPA requirements. A Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) must pre-approve the use of EPA- approved biocides in air conveyance systems.

6.8.10 Drinking Water (APR 2018)

The Lessor must ensure that drinking water provided in the leased space meets the standards prescribed in the Safe

Drinking Water Act, 42 U.S.C. 300. The Lessor must test the sources of drinking water in the leased space (faucets, drinking water fountains, ice machines, etc.) on a periodic basis, but no less than every three (3) years, to ensure water quality (e.g., lead, copper, total coliforms).
