Actual growth includes growth that is active or dormant, visible or hidden. o Remediation should be conducted by personnel trained on proper clean-up methods, personal protection, and potential health hazards to comply with requirements of the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) o Respiratory protection in accordance with the OSHA respiratory protection standard (29 CFR 1910.134) is recommended. Gloves and eye protection should be worn. o Applicable federal, state and local administrative codes, rules and statutes must be identified and followed. • IICRC S520 Condition 2 (settled spores or fungal fragments) – an indoor environment which is primarily contaminated with settles spores or fungal fragments that were dispersed directly or indirectly from, and reflective of, the fungal ecology of a Condition 3 area, which may have traces of actual growth. o The primary work area is defined as any Condition 3 areas mentioned in the conclusions above; however, the HVAC duct systems may also require some level of cleaning to remove settled and airborne fungal material. The surfaces in any Condition 2 areas should be cleaned and extra focus should be attended to porous items. o Any content items such as electronics, furniture or personal items will need to be cleaned by a professional remediation contractor before they are moved to a non-contaminated area. o As mentioned above, the HVAC equipment may need to be cleaned and sanitized as part of this remediation if determined Condition 2 or 3. Heating, ventilation and air- conditioning systems (HVAC) play an important role (both positive and negative) in fungal infestation and dissemination as follows: 1) as a dispersal pathway for airborne fungal spores; and 2) as growth locations for fungi that enter the systems (e.g., drip pans, chill coils, and ductwork). Any HVAC system remediation should be cleaned by a NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaning Association) certified duct cleaner. If the interior of the ductwork contains insulation it will need to be removed and/or replaced. o Remediation should be conducted by personnel trained on proper clean-up methods, personal protection, and potential health hazards to comply with requirements of the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200). Respiratory protection in accordance with the OSHA respiratory protection standard (29 CFR 1910.134) is recommended. Gloves and eye protection should be worn. o Applicable federal, state and local administrative codes, rules and statutes must be identified and followed. • IICRC S520 Condition 1 (normal fungal ecology) – an indoor environment that may have settled spores, fungal fragments or traces of actual growth whose identity, location, and quantity is reflective of a normal fungal ecology for a similar indoor environment. Preparatory Steps (to be performed by the remediation contractor): o Use blue painter’s tape under duct tape to prevent unnecessary damage to walls; use staples and duct tape and/or spray tack to seal the protective barriers.
