The remediated area must remain off- <br /> limits to any personnel other than the remediation team and testing firm until the PRV has been <br /> completed and clearance has been achieved. <br /> • Additional documentation and guidance can be provided by ESG regarding PRV methodology <br /> and thresholds. ESG can also provide Post Remediation Evaluation(PRE)guidance to help guide <br /> the remediation contractor and increase the likelihood of passing the PRV. <br /> Restoration Steps Following PRV Testing: <br /> • The PRV test should be conducted prior to replacement of any building materials removed during <br /> remediation procedures. If you have specific questions regarding this,please contact ESG. <br /> • All removed,impacted materials shall be replaced with like materials. All materials installed <br /> shall be new. <br /> • The remediation contractor cannot be held responsible for future growth of fungal colonies in the <br /> remediated area as new growth can be achieved with the reintroduction of moisture. In addition, <br /> a warranty to prevent future mold growth is provided by the manufacturer of chemicals that may <br /> have been used during remediation and not the remediation contractor. <br /> • The US EPA and OSHA recommend a follow-up inspection be conducted at some time period <br /> after the mold remediation has been completed. <br /> Remediation Contractor Qualifications (to be considered when hiring a contractor to perform any of <br /> the remedial steps): <br /> • Training. The Contractor's supervisor of the work crew must attend a recognized training <br /> program by the Indoor Air Quality Association(IAQA),the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and <br /> Restoration Certification(IICRC), or similar non-profit organization. Proficiency should be <br /> demonstrated by an industry certification such as one from the American Council for Accredited <br /> Certification(ACAC). <br /> • Previous Experience. The Contractor must demonstrate substantial experience with similar <br /> projects and provide references. <br /> • All workers will be fit tested prior to starting the project(follow company fit test program). <br /> • Follow all applicable OSHA safety and health programs. <br /> • Demonstrated Ability of Workers. The Remediation Contractor must demonstrate that it has (or <br /> will have)a sufficient number of remediation workers who have successfully completed in-house <br /> training regarding mold. Because of the timely nature of this project, it is recommended the <br /> remediation contractor can provide 15 to 20 trained workers to continuously work on the project <br /> until it is complete. Once the remediation process is started remediation contractors should not <br /> stop or"pull off'personnel until the project is complete. Because of the nature and thoroughness <br /> of this type of work,it is recommended that these workers have been trained properly and are not <br /> temporary labor. <br /> • Insurance. The Remediation Contractor must demonstrate that it has sufficient coverage to meet <br /> owner's requirement and preferably hold current General Liability and Mold Pollution policies. <br /> • Permits. The Contractor shall secure,pay for,and maintain in full force and effect until no longer <br /> necessary,all necessary licenses,permits, and permissions required by federal and state law, city <br /> ordinance, statute, or regulations. <br /> Environmental Solutions Group • 7 Maple Leaf Drive,Ste 104, Greensboro, NC 27410 • 336-373-1538 29 <br /> www.Go-ESG.com <br />
