1 INDOOR AIR QUALITY INVESTIGATION FINAL REPORT For: Washtenaw Intermediate School District 1819 South Wagner Road Ann Arbor, MI At: High Point School 1735 South Wagner Road Ann Arbor, Michigan By:.. Ann Arbor, Michigan Project #: CI0333/HP105-HP106 February & March 2018

2 INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND Ms. Diane Sevigny of Washtenaw Intermediate School District contacted. with a request to conduct an Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) investigation at High Point School, located at 1735 South Wagner Road, Ann Arbor, Michigan. Ms. Sevigny indicated that there were complaints of various symptoms in classrooms at High Point School. These symptoms included headache, fatigue, nausea, eye and nose irritation and dizziness. Based on the information provided by Ms. Sevigny, it was decided that the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Investigation would include an on-site evaluation, TO-15 sampling (including VOCs, Methane, Ammonia and Sulfur compounds), Lead air, Mercury air, Respirable Dust and general parameter measurements in the building. METHODS. conducted limited indoor air quality-monitoring activities at High Point School. The investigation included the following: A visual inspection for any obvious indoor pollution sources in areas of specific concern; General Parameter measurements including; temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, percent oxygen, hydrocarbons, chlorine, and nitrogen dioxide. TO-15 sampling for VOCs, Methane, Ammonia and Sulfur Compounds within Rooms A1, A5 and C8. Respirable dust air sampling in affected locations within the building. Mold air sampling in applicable spaces; Mercury sampling in applicable spaces; Lead sampling in applicable spaces; INVESTIGATION SUMMARY This section is intended to provide a general summary of the results of this IAQ Investigation. The results of the air sampling did not provide an indication of a source for the symptoms recorded within the sampling areas. All general parameter measurements were within regulatory guidelines. The TO-15 sampling did not identify any sulfur compounds or ammonia, but did identify trace VOC concentrations. All VOC concentrations were well below any regulatory limits. Additionally, the mold sampling did not demonstrate unusual elevations and the results of mercury, lead and respirable dust sampling were all below the limits of detection of the analytical methods used (very low). The air sample results do not indicate a health hazard for these parameters within the sampling locations.

3 AIR MONITORING RESULTS Temperature and Relative Humidity Thermal parameters of an environment, although basic in nature, should not be overlooked, as certain temperature/humidity level combinations can affect human comfort. Temperature and relative humidity in certain combinations can create hot and moist environments conducive to fungus/mold growth, or cold and dry environments that increase human discomfort. The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) has developed a comfort range for temperature and relative humidity at different times of the year (ASHRAE, 1989). ASHRAE has developed a chart outlining this comfort range.. conducted temperature and relative humidity measurements in order to gather the following information during the visit: 1. Information which may be used to evaluate the general performance of the HVAC system. 2. Identify possible temperature and humidity conditions and/or combinations that may promote the growth of mold and fungi or contribute to human discomfort. The measured relative humidity levels and the measured temperatures on the day of the investigation are unlikely to be conducive to mold/mildew growth or represent a potential health concern at this time. Carbon Dioxide Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is an important parameter in assessing indoor air quality, as above-normal concentrations can provide an indication of inadequate ventilation. Since CO 2 is expired by humans during respiration, the level of CO 2 indoors as compared to outdoors may be used in determining the amount of fresh outside air that is included in the total ventilation process, as well as a general indication as to the efficiency of the HVAC system. In addition, ASHRAE recommends a level of 1,000 parts per million (ppm) as a guideline for human comfort (ASHRAE, 1989). Areas with CO 2 levels above 1,000 ppm can be considered to possibly have inadequate ventilation and can detract from occupant comfort. This does not mean that areas with CO 2 levels in excess of 1,000 ppm are considered hazardous and should be evacuated, but rather these levels should be used as a guideline to help maximize comfort for all occupants (NIOSH, 1991). Government regulatory agencies and occupational health professional organizations have established levels of carbon dioxide that the average worker may be exposed to on a regular basis (the typical 40 hour work week) without any adverse effects. These levels range from 5,000 to 10,000. All of the CO 2 measurements recorded on the days of the investigation were near or below the ASHRAE recommended guideline of 1,000 ppm for human comfort. The CO 2 measurements are unlikely to be indicative of human discomfort and/or inadequate ventilation. Carbon Monoxide Carbon monoxide (CO) is a by-product formed by incomplete combustion of a variety of flammable materials. Indoor sources can result from malfunctions of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, fossil-fueled hot water heaters, or outside contaminants being drawn into the building through the HVAC system. Several governmental agencies and professional organizations have established levels to assess/regulate exposure, typically in a manufacturing/industrial environment. These levels range between 25 ppm and 35 ppm based on an eight-hour time weighted average. Low or non-detectable levels of carbon monoxide were recorded during this investigation and are unlikely to be a concern at this time. Hydrogen Sulfide Hydrogen sulfide, (H 2S) is a sulfur-based compound with a smell similar to that of rotten eggs. Hydrogen sulfide is frequently associated with sewer gas. Hydrogen sulfide measurements recorded during the investigation were less than the instrument detection limit and are unlikely to represent a potential health concern at this time.

4 Nitrogen Dioxide The most prominent sources of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO 2) are internal combustion engines burning fossil fuels. Outdoors, NO 2 can be a result of traffic from motor vehicles. The levels of NO 2 in High Point School were all less than the instrument detection limit and unlikely to represent a health concern at this time. Hydrocarbons Hydrocarbons, (HC) are organic compounds frequently associated with the incomplete combustion of natural gas and/or other fossil fuels. Hydrocarbon measurements were collected in part to ensure proper operation of the facility s HVAC systems. Hydrocarbon measurements were recorded as a percentage of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL). The LEL is an airborne hydrocarbon level, which represents the percent explosiveness or flammability of airborne hydrocarbons. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has established 10% of the LEL as a level to which building occupants or employees may be exposed with minimal risk. During the investigation, hydrocarbon measurements were very low or less than the instrument detection limit. Hydrocarbons are unlikely to represent a potential health concern at this time. Percent Oxygen Oxygen is a colorless, odorless, naturally occurring gaseous element essential to life processes and combustion. In ambient atmospheres, oxygen generally represents 21% of air. Nitrogen represents the other major component of ambient air (79%). Generally established governmental guidelines have determined percent oxygen levels in air that are acceptable for human exposure. These guidelines establish a range of oxygen in the air to which to humans may be exposed without the need of respiratory protection and/or a supplemental oxygen source. These range from 19.5% to 23.5%. All of the oxygen levels recorded during this investigation were within the established guidelines. TO-15 VOC SAMPLING RESULTS TO-15 analysis is a method of ambient air collection through a summa canister and analysis for a wide range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). TO-15 analysis allows for identification of VOCs at trace levels. Three TO-15 samples were collected as part of this IAQ investigation within Rooms A1, A5 and C8. The compounds identified were at extremely low trace levels. It appears that the possible source of some of the compounds identified could be from typical human uses, such as Ethanol and Ethyl Acetate which could be from perfumes and nail polish. The TO-15 samples were also analyzed for three components of sewer gas. Sewer gas is a mixture of toxic and nontoxic gases that can be present at varying levels depending upon the source. It is formed during the decay of household and industrial waste. Highly toxic components of sewer gas include hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. Results of the air sampling show less than detection limits for both compounds. Sample 01V collected in A5 showed trace amounts of methane, while 02V and 03V showed less than the detection limits.

5 RESPIRABLE DUST SAMPLE RESULTS A total of three respirable dust samples were collected through this IAQ Investigation. One was collected in the A-1, one was collected in A-5 and one collected in the A Centrum. The samples collected in A-1 and A-5 were in areas of concern which the sample collected in the A Centrum was a control sample. Two field blanks were also submitted to the Laboratory for analysis. The MIOSHA permissible exposure limit for respirable dust is 5 milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m³). The results of the three samples collected were not only below the regulatory limit but all at <.29 mg/m³ were below the limit of detection of the analytical method used and, as a result, do not appear to pose an issue. AIRBORNE FUNGAL SPORE SAMPLING Bioaerosols are defined as materials that have been finely divided and suspending in the air (aerosol) that a biological origin or activity (bio-). Or simply, these are living or dead bacteria, mold and fungi or the spores of mold and fungi. Individuals may react to the entire bacteria, mold and fungi or its spores, or react to mycotoxins, the chemicals that the fungi produce as a by-product of their metabolism. These biological particles and mycotoxins can affect different people in different ways and have the potential to cause a variety of physical symptoms. Fungal air sampling can be conducted after a definite source has been identified, as a pro-active means of characterizing a building s air or to possibly eliminate a major fungal infestation as the cause of occupant complaints. Although there are no regulatory standards regarding exposures to molds, comparisons between samples can be reviewed in an attempt to determine if potential indoor mold amplification sites exist, with the results being reported a Fungal Structures/m³. Variables such as outdoor fungal types and concentrations as well as the number and specific types of fungal organisms indoors and their potential sources, must all be considered when interpreting sample results; no one comparison or interpretation is typically appropriate. Fungal air sampling was conducted in order to characterize the indoor fungal spore composition in applicable areas of the building. There were a total of five fungal spore samples collected at the facility. They included 01A (A-1), 02A (A-5), 03A (A-Centrum), 04A (C-Centrum) and 05A (Outdoors). Sample 03A, 04A and O5A were collected as control samples while sample 01A and 02A were collected in the specific areas of concern. As identified on the attached analytical results sheets, the outdoor sample result for total fungal counts per cubic meter (counts/m³) was 200 while the concentration in A-1 was 40 counts/m³, in A-5 was None Detected, in A Centrum was 130 counts/m³ and in C-Centrum was 600 counts/m³. Although the mold types differed, the results within the areas of concern were either low or none-detect. The only sample that was higher than the outdoors sample was collected in the C-Centrum which was a control (not an area of concern). It should be noted that the mold sampling and analysis is a snap shot in time and can vary depending on weather conditions such as temperature and humidity.

6 MERCURY SAMPLING A total of three mercury air samples were collected as part of this investigation. Additionally, two field blanks were analyzed also. The samples were collected in A-1, A-5 and the A-Centrum. The first two were collected in areas of concern while the third sample was collected as a control. The maximum levels for mercury range from milligrams per cubic meter of air (mg/m³), (ACGIH) to 0.1 mg/m³ (OSHA PEL). All three mercury air samples collected within the building were Not detected and, as a result, do not pose a concern at this time. LEAD SAMPLING A total of three lead air samples were collected within the building. Additionally, two field blanks were also submitted to the Laboratory. One sample was collected in A-1, one was collected in A-5 and one was collected in the A-Centrum. According to the OSHA Lead Standard, the Action Level for lead in air is 25 micrograms per cubic meter, (µg/m³) while the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) is 50 µg/m³, both based on an 8 hour TWA. The results of the air samples ranged from < 7.2 µg/m³ to < 7.3 µg/m³. The less than sign means that the levels were below the detection limit of the analytical method used, as a result, do not pose a concern at this time.

7 OBSERVATIONS Observations that resulted from the investigation are detailed below. A visual inspection of the specific areas of concern, Rooms A-1 and A-5 did not identify any obvious building pollutants. However, stained ceiling tile were observed in various areas; Results of general parameter measurements were within acceptable ranges and do not appear to pose a health concern at this time; Results of VOC sampling identified several compounds at extremely low levels and do not appear to pose a health concern at this time; Results of respirable dust sampling, airborne mercury sampling and airborne lead sampling were all below the detection limit of the analytical methods used, (negligible or zero). RECOMMENDATIONS Remove and replace stained ceiling tiles within affected spaces as a precautionary measure in order to eliminate a potential source for mold growth or amplification; Consider cleaning the ductwork and diffusers in affected spaces; Increase outdoor fresh air within affected spaces through the HVAC system.

31 Proj: EMSL Analytical, Inc. 212 South Wagner Road Ann Arbor, MI Phone: (734) Fax: (734) Web: CI0133/HP106 EMSL Order: Customer ID: Collected: Received: Analyzed: NOVA53 Air Samples - Spore traps: Spore traps are commercially available sampling devices that capture airborne particles on an adhesive slide. Air is pulled through the device using a vacuum pump. Spores, as well as other airborne particles, are impacted on the collection adhesive. Using spore trap collection methods has inherent limitations. These collection methods are biased towards larger spore sizes. The analysis for total spore counts is a direct microscopic examination and does not include culturing or growing the fungi. Therefore, the results include both viable and non-viable spores. Some fungal groups produce similar spore types that cannot be distinguished by direct microscopic examination alone (i.e., Aspergillus/Penicillium, and others). Other spore types may lack distinguishing features that aid in their identification. These types are grouped into larger categories such as Ascospores or Basidiospores. Fungal spores are identified and grouped by morphological characteristics including color, shape, septation, ornamentation, and fruiting structures (if present) which are compared to published mycological identification keys and texts. EMSL reports provide spore counts per cubic meter of air to three significant figures. Please note that each spore category is reported to three significant figures. Due to rounding and the application of three significant figures the sum of the individual spore numbers may not equal the total spore count on the report. EMSL does not maintain responsibility for final volume concentrations (counts/m3) since this volume is provided by the field collector and can not be verified by EMSL. EMSL analyzes spore traps using phase contrast microscopy. There is a wide choice of collection devices (Air-O-Cell, Micro-5, Burkhard, etc.) on the market. Differences in analytical method may exist between spore trap devices. Spore trap results are reported in spores per cubic meter of air. Due to the other airborne particles collected with the spores, EMSL reports a background particle density. Background density is an indication of overall particulate matter present on the sample (i.e. dust in the air). High background concentrations may obscure spores such as the Penicillium/Aspergillus group. The rating system is from 1-5 with 1 = 1-25% of the background obscured by material, 2 = 26-50%, 3 = 51-75%, 4 = 76% - 99%, 5 = 100% or overloaded. A background rating of 4 or higher should be regarded as a minimum count since the actual concentrations may be higher than those reported. EMSL will not be held responsible for overloading of samples. Sample volumes are left to the discretion of the company or persons conducting the fieldwork. Skin fragment density is the percentage of skin cells making up the total background material, 1 = 1-25%, 2 = 26-50%, 3 = 51-75%, 4 = %. Skin fragment density is considered an indication of the general cleanliness in the area sampled.

These data represent only a portion of an overall IAQ investigation. Visual information and environmental conditions measured during the site assessment (humidity, moisture readings, etc.) are crucial to any final interpretation of the results. Many factors impact the final results; therefore, result interpretation should only be conducted by qualified individuals. The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) has published a good reference book covering sampling and data interpretation. It is entitled, Bioaerosols: Assessment and Control, Fungal spores are found everywhere. Whether or not symptoms develop in people exposed to fungi depends on the nature of the fungal material (e.g., allergenic, toxic, or infectious), the exposure level, and the susceptibility of exposed persons. Susceptibility varies with the genetic predisposition (e.g., allergic reactions do not always occur in all individuals), age, pre-existing medical conditions (e.g., diabetes, cancer, or chronic lung conditions), use of immunosuppressive drugs, and concurrent exposures. These reasons make it difficult to identify dose/response relationships that are required to establish safe or unsafe levels (i.e., permissible exposure limits). It is generally accepted in the industry that indoor fungal growth is undesirable and inappropriate, necessitating removal or other appropriate remedial actions. The New York City guidelines and EPA guidelines for mold remediation in schools and commercial buildings define the conditions warranting mold remediation. Always remember that water is the key. Preventing water damage or water condensation will prevent mold growth. This report is not intended to provide medical advice or advice concerning the relative safety of an occupied space. Always consult an occupational or environmental health physician who has experience addressing indoor air contaminants if you have any questions.
