Warranty information Documentation of proper disposal of lead paint

3. Existing Conditions:

a. Maintenance Building: The building is a residential-style single-story building that is approximately 69 ft x 33 ft with a total of 12 (twelve) windows. Vinyl siding at the Otter Brook office was replaced in 2011 over the original clapboards. A Lead Containing Paint (LCP) survey identified multiple areas containing LCP on this structure. Due to this, the clapboards, and trim shall be removed and properly disposed of as LCP materials.

Replacement windows were installed in 1996 and need upgrading due to mechanical wear and to increase energy efficiency. Under the clapboards may be tar paper containing asbestos.
