The test report shall not be reproduced except in full, without written approval of the laboratory. The report must not be used by the client to
claim product certification, approval, or endorsement by any agency of the federal government. Eurofins EMLab P&K reserves the right to
dispose of all samples after a period of thirty (30) days, according to all state and federal guidelines, unless otherwise specified.
Inhomogeneous samples are separated into homogeneous subsamples and analyzed individually. ND means no fibers were detected. When
detected, the minimum detection and reporting limit is less than 1% unless point counting is performed. Floor tile samples may contain large
amounts of interference material and it is recommended that the sample be analyzed by gravimetric point count analysis to lower the detection
limit and to aid in asbestos identification.
‡ A "Version" indicated by -"x" after the Lab ID# with a value greater than 1 indicates a sample with amended data. The revision number is
reflected by the value of "x".

Request for Emergency Approval Processing of Demolition Notification
Olympic Region Clean Air Agency
2940 Limited Lane NW
Olympia, WA 98502
To Whom it may concern:
I am requesting expedited service for my Demolition Notification, because removing the structure,
which is immediately adjacent and at the same level as my roof, is necessary for the safety of the
roofing contractors, who need to do a emergency repair of the trusses in my attic, and the safety of my
tenants who continue to live at 181 Ridge Dr., (Insurance has been notified) who have themselves
erected a brace to hopefully prevent the rest of the ceiling from collapsing more.
In order for the roofers to have the best access to fix the trusses, which have come apart inside the attic
of my manufactured home, I want to remove this additional structure. The trusses are allowing the
ceiling inside my home to collapse. Although a temporary brace has been pushed up against the
collapsed ceiling there is still a possibility other areas will being to move and fall as rain and snow
weigh on the roof. I have renters currently living in the house. My insurance is OK with this situation,
but I still don't want anyone to get hurt with the ceiling falling on them in their sleep or just suddenly
before they can move. The roofers will have to do a complete roof tear off in order to evaluate the
extent of the damage and repair the damaged trusses. Without removal of this back structure the debris
would not automatically fall to the ground and additional labor would be needed to push it all the way
to the ground. The structure to be demolition has a corrugated fiberglass roof, which is not strong
enough for workers to stand on.
Repectfully yours,

Summary: ND= No Asbestos Detected
S1: Vinyl Flooring ND
All asbestos containing building materials with a reading greater than 1% is considered a
hazardous material if disturbed.
If removed the owner or certified abatement contractor must follow the rules of the EPA
and governed by Olympic Region Clean Air Agency.
During renovation it is possible that additional suspect ACBM may be found. Should
such suspect material be discovered an AHERA certified inspector will have to sample
and test the material to prove it is of non asbestos.
NWA Environmental is not responsible for identification of hidden materials that are not
identifiable with reasonable diligence.
Thank you, Chad Witheridge Building Inspector EPA Certification #R21-004-AI-O
