Project Manual Summary for RFB949700-01
This is a Project Manual and Asbestos Inspection Report for the Independence Mental Health Institute Warehouse Roof Replacement project, prepared for the State of Iowa Department of Administrative Services. The project involves the complete replacement of the warehouse roof at the Independence Mental Health Institute facility located at 2277 Iowa Avenue, Independence, Iowa 50655, with a new EPDM roof system. The project, identified as DAS#9497.00, requires removal of the existing roof over the warehouse and canopy structures. The specifications and technical documents were prepared under the responsible charge of Darrell L. Smith, a civil engineer licensed under ECS Midwest, LLC (License #11460), with work covering specification sections related to roofing materials and installation procedures (06 10 53, 07 01 50, 07 22 00, 07 53 23, 07 62 00, and 07 91 13). Sealed bids were due by April 21, 2026, at 2:00 PM CDT, with a bid opening that occurred on March 23, 2026, at 8:00 AM CDT. Bid security is required at 5% of the total bid amount. The primary contact for this procurement is Michael Bradbury at michael.bradbury@iowa.gov or +1 515-823-9327.
The Asbestos Inspection Report, prepared by Travis J. Haas (Inspector #25-13724, License Expiration 8/2/26) on December 30, 2025, documents a comprehensive survey of suspected asbestos-containing materials within the warehouse structure. The inspection identified homogeneous areas of potential friable and non-friable asbestos, with bulk samples analyzed using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) in accordance with EPA 40 CFR Part 763, Appendix A to Subpart F. Materials are classified as asbestos-containing when samples show greater than 1% asbestos content. The report notes that inaccessible areas including tunnels, crawl spaces, boiler interiors, and concealed spaces within walls shall be treated as presumed ACM and handled by qualified licensed personnel. Contractors are advised that the PLM analysis technique may have limitations for certain materials and that additional analysis methods such as the Chatfield Method of TEM analysis may be recommended for floor tiles, adhesives, and drywall samples. All estimated quantities within the report require field verification by contractors, and any additional asbestos-containing materials discovered during renovation or demolition activities remain the responsibility of the owner for testing and abatement costs.

SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
For each area of the building, the inspector performing the inspection did the following:
1. Visually inspected the area(s) to identify the locations of all suspected
Asbestos Containing Building Materials.
2. Identify all homogeneous areas of friable and non-friable suspected asbestos.
3. Assume, if necessary, that some or all of the homogeneous area(s) are Asbestos Containing Material (ACM), and for each homogeneous area that is not assumed to be ACM, collect and submit bulk samples for analysis.
SECTION 2
DEFINITIONS:
HOMOGENEOUS AREA
An area which appears similar throughout in terms of color, texture, and date of material application.
SURFACING MATERIAL
Material in a building that is sprayed-on, troweled-on, or otherwise applied to surfaces, such as acoustical plaster on ceilings and fireproofing materials on structural members, or other materials on surfaces for acoustical, fireproofing, or other purposes.
THERMAL SYSTEM INSULATION
Means material applied to pipes, fittings, boilers breeching, tanks ducts, or other interior structural components to prevent heat loss or gain, or water condensation, or other purposes.
MISCELLANEOUS MATERIAL
Interior building material on structural components, structural members or fixtures, such as floor and ceiling tiles, and does not include surfacing material or thermal system insulation.
SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS
All samples to be analyzed by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM). Analysis was performed in accordance with EPA 40 CFR, Part 763, Appendix A to Subpart F.
A homogeneous area was considered not to contain Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) only if the results of all samples collected from the area showed asbestos in the amounts of one (l) percent (%) or less (_1%). A homogeneous area contains ACM when one or more samples collected from that area shows greater than one (1) percent (%) asbestos (>1%).
FRIABLE
Any material containing more than one (1) percent (%) asbestos that, when dry can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to a powder by hand pressure.
NON-FRIABLE (CATEGORY I)
Asbestos containing packaging, gaskets, resilient floor covering, and asphalt roofing products, containing more than one (1) percent (%) asbestos.
NON-FRIABLE (CATEGORY II)
Any excluding Non-Friable (Category I) Asbestos Containing Material, containing more than one (1) percent (%) asbestos.
SECTION 3
General Building Inspection Observations
The building inspection is conducted by a qualified and State of Iowa licensed Asbestos Inspector. The purpose of a building inspection is to identify existing building materials that are asbestos containing materials (ACM). If the inspection is conducted in an occupied building, the Inspector is sometimes denied accessibility to building areas and materials, i.e., the Inspector may not be allowed to cut through floor coverings or walls, remove quarry tiles, etc. There are many situations where ACM are concealed in wall cavities and other non-accessible areas, such as tunnels, crawl spaces, above ceilings, pipe chases, behind wall coverings, beneath debris piles, under various floor coverings, etc. When these situations occur in construction, renovation, and/or demolition, etc., materials in these areas shall be treated as ACM and handled as such by qualified and licensed asbestos personnel. If suspected asbestos containing material is discovered or damaged during the course of any activities, the material shall be considered and treated as ACM to diminish further fiber release. In addition, the Inspector uses an independent laboratory that analyzes the bulk building material samples using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM). PLM analysis technique may not be as accurate as more expensive analysis techniques for certain building materials. It remains the Building Owner and/or Representative(s)’ responsibility to address this issue and consider analyzing suspect building material using different analysis techniques prior to disturbing the material(s). The following are areas that may not be inspected.
1. Tunnels and Crawl Spaces: During the inspection process, the Inspector attempts to check tunnels and crawl spaces for ACM and the degree of damage to the materials. In most cases, quantification of ACM in these areas is impossible due to the inaccessibility of these areas. In addition, these areas may fall under: "Confined Space Regulations". Due to the congestion in tunnels and crawl spaces, obtaining an accurate quantification for mudded joints, pipe wrap, etc. is almost impossible. The Inspector will quantify ACM only in accessible tunnels and crawl spaces and estimate the quantities in the inaccessible areas.
Some reasons for inaccessibility are as follows: flooded areas, pipe congestion, asbestos and other debris, electrical hazards, confined spaces, unknown gas emissions, low ceilings, etc.
2. Boilers and Thermal System Insulation: Interior portions of boilers, heaters, storage tanks, etc. are not always accessible. Materials in these areas will be treated as ACM. Areas of concern are packing inside boiler doors and liners.
Use extreme care and properly trained personnel when handling these types of materials. Some boilers have insulated metal jackets over fiberglass or ACM.
Thermal system insulation can be found in many different forms, i.e., air cell, preformed magnesium block, millboard, etc. All fiberglass materials are excluded as suspected ACM.
3. Debris: In areas where damaged ACM may be found there may and usually will be ACM debris in the general area of the damaged material. These areas shall be treated with the utmost care even during the inspection and quantification process. The Inspector considers any exposure to this type of material as a health threat.
4. State of Quantification: As a general rule, individual rooms or areas of estimation contain inherently more probability of an error than those groups of rooms or areas or an entire building. In other words, the aggregate tends to be more accurate than the sums of the individual parts. Therefore, when designing response actions (measurements, air samples, etc.), the project designer and the asbestos abatement contractor’s attention shall be given to ensure that quantification of materials and proper methods are followed through careful analysis of the site. If materials are quantified, the asbestos abatement contractor or owner, owner representatives or third parties are responsible for verifying the quantities.
5. The Inspector may take some latitude in the presentation of the Inspection
Report. When the Inspector has found floor tiles, linoleum, and/or carpeting listed he/she may or may not have adhesives listed. Adhesives have been known to contain asbestos and therefore, although not mentioned, it may be presumed to be ACM, listed or not. Testing of the adhesive prior to disturbing is recommended. The same is true for adhesives or mastics used to adhere linoleum to floors or counter tops. All toweled-on and/or sprayed-on surfacing materials; i.e., floor mastics, wall and ceiling surfacing, etc. are either suspected or presumed ACM unless sampled and analyzed to indicate that they are not
ACM.
6. In the Inspection Report, certain items such as mudded joints (MJ) or metal doors (MD), etc. are listed as units or number of units, i.e. 10 MJ, 3 Damaged, which is an indication of count rather than square feet or linear feet. Most materials listed in the assessment are either listed as square feet or linear feet with these noted exceptions.
7. In the Assessment Process, there are additional codes such as ME and MG;
ME representing miscellaneous electrical and MG representing miscellaneous gasket materials. Both codes are used to indicate materials that are unusual to the normal course of an assessment of the building. Miscellaneous electrical materials include old electrical wiring, switchboards, transite panels, etc.
Miscellaneous gasket materials can be found between (thermal) valves, on boiler doors, between fittings, between molds, etc. These codes give the Inspector the ability to qualify materials, which sometimes may not be considered as ACM.
8. An Asbestos Code Sheet is included with the Inspector's inspection report, which informs the client as to the Homogeneous Codes used during the inspection process.
9. Caution- Regarding Inspection results- Floor tiles, adhesives, and drywall (mud) found to not contain asbestos should be re-analyzed under the “Chatfield Method” of TEM analysis. Many times, the results from having these materials analyzed under PLM result in false positives or false negatives. After reviewing your report, please notify the inspector if you want these samples analyzed under the “Chatfield Method”.
10. Any sample less than 10% asbestos may be Point Counted. Point counting is a more accurate method of analyzing bulk samples. The results of the point counting are the results that will determine if the material will be treated as asbestos.
11. Asbestos inspections are performed based on current understanding of the regulations. As new interpretations of the regulations are made aware of by the EPA, DNR, and Iowa Division of Labor. Advanced Environmental Testing and Abatement Inc. will adapt their inspections to comply with these new procedures.
If additional sampling is required by the different agencies, Advanced Environmental will do the additional sampling. The owner is responsible for the additional cost for these samples as well as labor.
12. Advanced Environmental shall not be responsible for any cost of abating any additional asbestos discovered in any renovation or demolition activities. Any additional items discovered shall be tested when they become accessible. For example, old adhesives may be under new floor tiles and adhesives. Additional materials may be concealed in walls, under multi layers of flooring, etc.
13. All amounts listed are estimates. It is up to other contractors to field verify any amounts that are listed within this report.
14. All material that looks similar should be treated as asbestos containing materials.
15. Asbestos Material containing <1%. Some material tested for asbestos may contain trace amounts of asbestos and be below the threshold for asbestos contain material according to both the Iowa DNR and Iowa State Code. However, the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration still have some regulations that contractors must follow under 29 CFR 1926.1101. Contractors working with asbestos material with <1% asbestos must still produce a negative and initial exposure assessment, completed by a “competent person”.
Contractors must follow 29 CFR 1926. 1101 (g)(1)(ii) and (iii) and 29 CFR 1926.
1101(g)(3)(i), (ii), and (iv). Please contact Advanced Environmental Testing and Abatement, Inc. for consultation on how to handle material with <1% asbestos.
16. Flat roofs: If any layer of a flat roof tests positive for asbestos, all layers should be considered asbestos and removed as such. Advanced Environmental makes every effort to core roof samples through all layers. If flashing is identified as asbestos containing, all tar on walls and adjacent roof decks shall be bid as and treated as asbestos containing unless separately and disproved by the abatement contractor.
17. Prior to the start of any demolition, have the demolition contractor review the asbestos inspection report, do a building walk through and sign that he agrees with the report and sees no questionable items. If any suspect material is discovered during the demolition, the demolition contractor shall stop immediately and inform the building owner of the suspect materials.
18. If asbestos containing materials are found during demolition:
1: Stop demolition 2: Call inspector 3: Notify DNR of change through notification and phone call:
515-725-9576
Options for handling found asbestos during demolition activities:
1: Have the inspector stay on site and direct what ACM (RACM) should go as RACM or what they want to go as regular construction waste.
2: Least logical: Most Expensive: Treat all waste as RACM. This isn’t necessary in most cases. Demolition contractors have the most to gain in this option.
19. The inspector shall not be responsible for the cost of abating any “found” asbestos after the original inspection. The inspector did not create them just aided in identifying them. The owner pays for all abatement and RACM found or made on the site. Payment for the inspection means acceptance of the conditions herein – no exceptions.

SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
For each area of the building, the inspector performing the inspection did the following:
1. Visually inspected the area(s) to identify the locations of all suspected
Asbestos Containing Building Materials.
2. Identify all homogeneous areas of friable and non-friable suspected asbestos.
3. Assume, if necessary, that some or all of the homogeneous area(s) are Asbestos Containing Material (ACM), and for each homogeneous area that is not assumed to be ACM, collect and submit bulk samples for analysis.
SECTION 2
DEFINITIONS:
HOMOGENEOUS AREA
An area which appears similar throughout in terms of color, texture, and date of material application.
SURFACING MATERIAL
Material in a building that is sprayed-on, troweled-on, or otherwise applied to surfaces, such as acoustical plaster on ceilings and fireproofing materials on structural members, or other materials on surfaces for acoustical, fireproofing, or other purposes.

Means material applied to pipes, fittings, boilers breeching, tanks ducts, or other interior structural components to prevent heat loss or gain, or water condensation, or other purposes.
MISCELLANEOUS MATERIAL
Interior building material on structural components, structural members or fixtures, such as floor and ceiling tiles, and does not include surfacing material or thermal system insulation.
SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS
All samples to be analyzed by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM). Analysis was performed in accordance with EPA 40 CFR, Part 763, Appendix A to Subpart F.
A homogeneous area was considered not to contain Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) only if the results of all samples collected from the area showed asbestos in the amounts of one (l) percent (%) or less (_1%). A homogeneous area contains ACM when one or more samples collected from that area shows greater than one (1) percent (%) asbestos (>1%).

Asbestos containing packaging, gaskets, resilient floor covering, and asphalt roofing products, containing more than one (1) percent (%) asbestos.
NON-FRIABLE (CATEGORY II)
Any excluding Non-Friable (Category I) Asbestos Containing Material, containing more than one (1) percent (%) asbestos.
SECTION 3
General Building Inspection Observations
The building inspection is conducted by a qualified and State of Iowa licensed Asbestos Inspector. The purpose of a building inspection is to identify existing building materials that are asbestos containing materials (ACM). If the inspection is conducted in an occupied building, the Inspector is sometimes denied accessibility to building areas and materials, i.e., the Inspector may not be allowed to cut through floor coverings or walls, remove quarry tiles, etc. There are many situations where ACM are concealed in wall cavities and other non-accessible areas, such as tunnels, crawl spaces, above ceilings, pipe chases, behind wall coverings, beneath debris piles, under various floor coverings, etc. When these situations occur in construction, renovation, and/or demolition, etc., materials in these areas shall be treated as ACM and handled as such by qualified and licensed asbestos personnel. If suspected asbestos containing material is discovered or damaged during the course of any activities, the material shall be considered and treated as ACM to diminish further fiber release. In addition, the Inspector uses an independent laboratory that analyzes the bulk building material samples using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM). PLM analysis technique may not be as accurate as more expensive analysis techniques for certain building materials. It remains the Building Owner and/or Representative(s)’ responsibility to address this issue and consider analyzing suspect building material using different analysis techniques prior to disturbing the material(s). The following are areas that may not be inspected.
1. Tunnels and Crawl Spaces: During the inspection process, the Inspector attempts to check tunnels and crawl spaces for ACM and the degree of damage to the materials. In most cases, quantification of ACM in these areas is impossible due to the inaccessibility of these areas. In addition, these areas may fall under: "Confined Space Regulations". Due to the congestion in tunnels and crawl spaces, obtaining an accurate quantification for mudded joints, pipe wrap, etc. is almost impossible. The Inspector will quantify ACM only in accessible tunnels and crawl spaces and estimate the quantities in the inaccessible areas.
Some reasons for inaccessibility are as follows: flooded areas, pipe congestion, asbestos and other debris, electrical hazards, confined spaces, unknown gas emissions, low ceilings, etc.
2. Boilers and Thermal System Insulation: Interior portions of boilers, heaters, storage tanks, etc. are not always accessible. Materials in these areas will be treated as ACM. Areas of concern are packing inside boiler doors and liners.
Use extreme care and properly trained personnel when handling these types of materials. Some boilers have insulated metal jackets over fiberglass or ACM.
Thermal system insulation can be found in many different forms, i.e., air cell, preformed magnesium block, millboard, etc. All fiberglass materials are excluded as suspected ACM.
3. Debris: In areas where damaged ACM may be found there may and usually will be ACM debris in the general area of the damaged material. These areas shall be treated with the utmost care even during the inspection and quantification process. The Inspector considers any exposure to this type of material as a health threat.
4. State of Quantification: As a general rule, individual rooms or areas of estimation contain inherently more probability of an error than those groups of rooms or areas or an entire building. In other words, the aggregate tends to be more accurate than the sums of the individual parts. Therefore, when designing response actions (measurements, air samples, etc.), the project designer and the asbestos abatement contractor’s attention shall be given to ensure that quantification of materials and proper methods are followed through careful analysis of the site. If materials are quantified, the asbestos abatement contractor or owner, owner representatives or third parties are responsible for verifying the quantities.
5. The Inspector may take some latitude in the presentation of the Inspection
Report. When the Inspector has found floor tiles, linoleum, and/or carpeting listed he/she may or may not have adhesives listed. Adhesives have been known to contain asbestos and therefore, although not mentioned, it may be presumed to be ACM, listed or not. Testing of the adhesive prior to disturbing is recommended. The same is true for adhesives or mastics used to adhere linoleum to floors or counter tops. All toweled-on and/or sprayed-on surfacing materials; i.e., floor mastics, wall and ceiling surfacing, etc. are either suspected or presumed ACM unless sampled and analyzed to indicate that they are not
ACM.
6. In the Inspection Report, certain items such as mudded joints (MJ) or metal doors (MD), etc. are listed as units or number of units, i.e. 10 MJ, 3 Damaged, which is an indication of count rather than square feet or linear feet. Most materials listed in the assessment are either listed as square feet or linear feet with these noted exceptions.
7. In the Assessment Process, there are additional codes such as ME and MG;
ME representing miscellaneous electrical and MG representing miscellaneous gasket materials. Both codes are used to indicate materials that are unusual to the normal course of an assessment of the building. Miscellaneous electrical materials include old electrical wiring, switchboards, transite panels, etc.
Miscellaneous gasket materials can be found between (thermal) valves, on boiler doors, between fittings, between molds, etc. These codes give the Inspector the ability to qualify materials, which sometimes may not be considered as ACM.
8. An Asbestos Code Sheet is included with the Inspector's inspection report, which informs the client as to the Homogeneous Codes used during the inspection process.
9. Caution- Regarding Inspection results- Floor tiles, adhesives, and drywall (mud) found to not contain asbestos should be re-analyzed under the “Chatfield Method” of TEM analysis. Many times, the results from having these materials analyzed under PLM result in false positives or false negatives. After reviewing your report, please notify the inspector if you want these samples analyzed under the “Chatfield Method”.
10. Any sample less than 10% asbestos may be Point Counted. Point counting is a more accurate method of analyzing bulk samples. The results of the point counting are the results that will determine if the material will be treated as
11. Asbestos inspections are performed based on current understanding of the regulations. As new interpretations of the regulations are made aware of by the EPA, DNR, and Iowa Division of Labor. Advanced Environmental Testing and Abatement Inc. will adapt their inspections to comply with these new procedures.
If additional sampling is required by the different agencies, Advanced Environmental will do the additional sampling. The owner is responsible for the additional cost for these samples as well as labor.
12. Advanced Environmental shall not be responsible for any cost of abating any additional asbestos discovered in any renovation or demolition activities. Any additional items discovered shall be tested when they become accessible. For example, old adhesives may be under new floor tiles and adhesives. Additional materials may be concealed in walls, under multi layers of flooring, etc.
13. All amounts listed are estimates. It is up to other contractors to field verify any amounts that are listed within this report.
14. All material that looks similar should be treated as asbestos containing materials.
15. Asbestos Material containing <1%. Some material tested for asbestos may contain trace amounts of asbestos and be below the threshold for asbestos contain material according to both the Iowa DNR and Iowa State Code. However, the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration still have some regulations that contractors must follow under 29 CFR 1926.1101. Contractors working with asbestos material with <1% asbestos must still produce a negative and initial exposure assessment, completed by a “competent person”.
Contractors must follow 29 CFR 1926. 1101 (g)(1)(ii) and (iii) and 29 CFR 1926.
1101(g)(3)(i), (ii), and (iv). Please contact Advanced Environmental Testing and Abatement, Inc. for consultation on how to handle material with <1% asbestos.
16. Flat roofs: If any layer of a flat roof tests positive for asbestos, all layers should be considered asbestos and removed as such. Advanced Environmental makes every effort to core roof samples through all layers. If flashing is identified as asbestos containing, all tar on walls and adjacent roof decks shall be bid as and treated as asbestos containing unless separately and disproved by the abatement contractor.
17. Prior to the start of any demolition, have the demolition contractor review the asbestos inspection report, do a building walk through and sign that he agrees with the report and sees no questionable items. If any suspect material is discovered during the demolition, the demolition contractor shall stop immediately and inform the building owner of the suspect materials.
18. If asbestos containing materials are found during demolition:
1: Stop demolition 2: Call inspector 3: Notify DNR of change through notification and phone call:
515-725-9576
Options for handling found asbestos during demolition activities:
1: Have the inspector stay on site and direct what ACM (RACM) should go as RACM or what they want to go as regular construction waste.
2: Least logical: Most Expensive: Treat all waste as RACM. This isn’t necessary in most cases. Demolition contractors have the most to gain in this option.
19. The inspector shall not be responsible for the cost of abating any “found” asbestos after the original inspection. The inspector did not create them just aided in identifying them. The owner pays for all abatement and RACM found or made on the site. Payment for the inspection means acceptance of the conditions herein – no exceptions.

ASBESTOS INSPECTION REPORT SUMMARY
METHOD:
All collected samples were submitted to EMC LABS, INC., located in Phoenix, Arizona.
EMC LABS is accredited by the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP #101926-0) for Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) analysis. The sampling was conducted by a State of Iowa licensed asbestos inspector and followed the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPS) protocols. Bulk samples of suspect asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) were analyzed using EPA Method 600-R93-116 via PLM.
OVERVIEW:
Advanced Environmental Testing and Abatement, Inc. performed an Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) Inspection on March 11th, 2026. The purpose of this inspection was to identify the presence of asbestos-containing materials prior to the future renovation of the building.
• Property Description:
o One story warehouse
• Occupancy Status at Time of Inspection: Occupied
• Scope of Inspection: Canopy roofs
RESULTS:
• Total Bulk Samples Collected: Eight (8) samples
• Asbestos Detected: Two (2) samples with asbestos.
All building materials similar in appearance, color, and/or texture to those determined to contain asbestos must be assumed to contain asbestos throughout the building.
SECTION 5
POSITIVE MATERIALS:
The following samples tested positive (>1%) for asbestos or are assumed to contain asbestos:
REGULATION REVIEW
The United State Environmental Protection Agency definition of asbestos containing materials (ACM) is a material with an asbestos content greater than 1%. According to Iowa Division of Labor, ACM is any material found to contain asbestos, regardless of its concentration. Materials containing asbestos containing <1% asbestos still have some Division of Labor regulations overseeing removal of the material.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The results of laboratory testing during the asbestos renovations contained eight (8) positive samples for asbestos in three homogenous materials.
Advanced Environmental Testing and Abatement, Inc. make the following recommendations and conclusions:
1: If roof flashing will be disturbed during renovations, it must be removed by a State of Iowa permitted asbestos company.
