3) Ensure all cleaned surfaces are dried thoroughly.
ii. Semi-Porous Materials (Unfinished Wood): Use this method for remediating unfinished wood-based items, including wood and wood framing in wall cavities:
1) Cleaning
1. HEPA vacuum all surfaces.
2. Scrub surfaces with a brush and detergent to remove mold.
3. Ensure all cleaned surfaces are dried thoroughly.
4. HEPA vacuum all surfaces to remove dust.

2. Removal: Remove carpet that has remained wet for 48-hours or longer (AIHA IMOM08-679). If carpet has dried out, lightly mist before removal.
2) Gypsum Wallboard (GWB)
1. Surface Cleaning: here GWB has a small amount of surface mold growth and the GWB is structurally sound, a surface cleaning method may be used with the permission of the
COR HEPA vacuum all surfaces and wipe down with a detergent solution. Do not use surface cleaning where mold growth penetrates wallboard substrate. Thoroughly dry the cleaned areas and paint to lock down any residual spores.
2. Removal: Remove Gypsum Wallboard that has remained wet for 48-hours or longer (AIHA IMOM08-679), or has visible mold growth. Where removal of GWB exposes insulation, remove the insulation. Lightly mist all contaminated materials before removal.

3.7 WASTE MANAGEMENT AND REMOVAL: Keep the site and work area free from accumulations of dust, waste materials, or rubbish caused by Contractor operations and free from any flammable materials or other sources of fire hazard. Remove all waste materials and rubbish from and about the work site in strict accordance with the specifications and applicable codes and regulations.
3.8 POST-REMEDIATION INSPECTION: Clean up all debris and dust in interior spaces outside the work area resulting from the Contractor's remediation work.
After all visible accumulations of material and debris are removed from the containment, provide the COR a 24-hour notice for a final clearance visual inspection. The COR and
Contractor's CIH shall conduct a thorough visual inspection of the work area. If during this inspection any visible debris or microbial contamination are observed, the Contractor shall re-clean the work area without additional cost to the Government.
3.9 CLEARANCE: Clearance shall be based on visual assessment (all visible mold removed, all visible dust removed, based on a "white glove" test) by COR Officer. "White glove" test shall consist of wiping the surface with a clean cloth of color suitable to reveal expected type of dust. For most surfaces, a white cloth is suitable. For GWB dust, a dark cloth may be more appropriate.
a. Failed remediation areas shall be recleaned at no additional cost to the
Government and the AFUs kept in operation another 12-hours, followed by another visual assessment. Subsequent failures shall follow the same routine until a pass condition is secured.
