Front Royal, VA – Over the last couple of weeks, two renovation projects were completed at A. S. Rhodes Elementary School, which included the replacement of the shingled roof and removal of asbestos.
- The shingled roof was replaced with GAF Timberline architectural shingles by Vertex Roofing, Inc.
- The floor tile, tile mastic, and pipe insulation, which contained asbestos fibers, was removed by APEX, Inc.
APEX, Inc. set up a mobile laboratory to conduct daily air samples and collected clearance air samples in accordance with the EPA Method outlined in 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 763 Subpart E to confirm the asbestos removal work was complete. Clearance air samples were analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The TEM samples were submitted to EMSL Analytical Inc, which is accredited under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP), and the building was determined to be asbestos free.
