(JMS) had performed for you at 2800 Meyers Road, Oak Brook, DuPage County, Illinois. Twenty (20) samples were analyzed for asbestos content. Enclosed is a summary of the sample locations and results. Environmental Protection Agency considers anything over I% to be asbestos containing. A copy of the laboratory analytical results is also included for review. Five (5) samples were found to contain Asbestos in quantities raging from less than I% to 10%. Please see the attached table for materials and sample locations. Confirmed asbestos materials are required to be removed by licensed asbestos contractors prior to any planned renovation or demolition. The asbestos flooring materials were detected throughout the vacant house under existing carpeting and debris. The exterior bottom layers of roofing shingles were detecting asbestos under one percent and are recommended to be disposed and treated as asbestos waste materials. In accessible areas under floors, inside crawl space s and in walls/ceilings are suspect to contain asbestos thermal insulation/transite ductwork and are required to be treated as asbestos unless tested otherwise. Lead protective sheeting was observed around the Kitchen Furnace Room and is recommended to be treated and disposed of as a lead waste. Due to the age of the building, suspect heating oil tank(s) may be present on the site or inside the vacant house. The U.S. E. P. A defines a material as asbestos containing if the concentration of asbestos fibers in greater than 1% by weight. If the quantity of asbestos is determined to be <10% by visual estimate, the owner or operator may (1) elect to assume the amount of asbestos to be greater than I% and treat the material as asbestos containing material or (2) request verification by point counting technique. If a result obtained by point count is different form a result obtained by visual estimation, the point count result will be used.

A detailed analysis report has been included for your review. The U.S.E.P.A defines a material as asbestos containing if the concentration of asbestos fibers is greater than I% by weight. If the quantity of asbestos is determined to be <10% by visual estimate, the owner or operator may (1) elect to assume the amount of asbestos to be greater than 1 % and treat the material as asbestos containing material or (2) request verification by point counting technique. If a result obtained by point count is different from a result obtained by visual estimation, the point count result will be used. These sample(s) will be discarded after 3 months of their receipt unless instructed otherwise. Should you require further assistance regarding this matter, the staff at JMS Environmental Associates, Ltd. is experienced and licensed in all aspects of asbestos consulting.

JMS031.BulkRpt 07/2006 JMS Environmental Associates., Ltd. Village of Oak Brook JMS Batch: 32576 Date: September 05, 2019 Page 2 of 7 ASBESTOS BULK MATERIAL ANALYSES: This part of the report covers the results of bulk material analyses that JMS Environmental Associates, Ltd. conducted for Village of Oak Brook. The information that is presented in this report is representative of the sample(s) submitted to JMS Environmental Associates, Ltd. The attached information tabulates the quantities of fibrous material found in each sample. The numbers will not necessarily add up to 100%, with the balance being filler and binder materials. The symbol (--) indicates not detected. A sample labeled heterogeneous indicates the possibility of significantly higher local concentrations than the averaged value reported. If the average asbestos content of a heterogeneous (multi -layered) sample is less than or equal to I%, but greater than none detected (--), additional analysis by separate layers will be necessary to ensure that no layer in the sample contains greater than one percent asbestos. Vinyl floor tiles may contain thin fibers <0.25 µm in diameter that are below the resolution of the polarized light microscope (PLM). The U.S.E.P.A. recommends that vinyl floor tiles analyzed by PLM in which asbestos is not detected or detected in quantities less than or equal to 1% be verified by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Fed. Reg. Vol. 59, No. 146, 8/1/94, p. 38970-38971. Sample analysis has been performed in accordance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency's "Interim Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Insulation Samples" as found in CFR, part763, subpart F, Appendix A and supplemented by EPA/600/R- 93/116, July 1993 — "Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials." Analysis was initiated by a stereoscopic examination of the sample as received. Any obvious fractions were noted and samples of each fraction were mounted for polarized light microscopy in a 1.515 index liquid. When mounting samples, any fibrous material is thoroughly separated for optical measurements. Classification of suspected asbestos fibers is achieved by determining the morphology, isotropy, pleochroism, extinction angle, sign of elongation, birefringence and refractive indices. Concurrently, the relative abundance of any asbestos material, other fibers, fillers and binders is determined. Identification of non -asbestos material is not as rigorous as these are not the species of interest. Quantities measured by calibrated visual estimates are determined by comparing areal coverage and thickness of various species present to reference material standards of known weight percent. The quantity "<1" is reported when asbestos events are observed but determined by calibrated visual estimate to be less than 1%. Point count percentages are obtained by calculating the ratio of asbestos events counted to total number of particles counted. A minimum of 400 total points is counted over 8 or more preparations to establish statistical significance. The quantity of "< 1 " is reported when 1 JMS031.BulkRpt 07/2006 JMS Environmental Associates, Ltd. Village of Oak Brook JMS Batch: 32576 Date: September 05, 2019 Page 3 of 7 ASBESTOS BULK MATERIAL ANALYSES: (continued) to 3 asbestos events are detected within a minimum 400 -point count or when asbestos events are observed but none are counted within a minimum 400 -point count. The overall uncertainty of asbestos analysis is determined in part by analyzing in-house reference material. Quantity measurements from in-house reference material can be used to determine the accuracy of asbestos quantifying methods. The following JMS accuracy values for critical asbestos quantities have been calculated: Method Quantity of Asbestos Accuracy of Measurement Point Count 1.0%_10.0% ±2.0% CVES M-10% ±3% When suspected asbestos fibers are observed, they are classified by measuring the following optical properties: refractive index, birefringence, extinction angle, pleochroism, isotropy, sign of elongation, and color. Fibers having optical properties consistent with predefined values are classified as asbestos. The optical properties of the various forms of asbestos are as follows: Attached with this section of the report are the analytical results of the bulk material samples. JMS031.BulkRpt 07/2006 Straight thin single fibers and bundles of such fibers usually with cleanly broken Amosite: ends on individual fibers; refractive indices of 1.664-1.686 and 1.687-1.729, birefringence 0.020-0.033 and parallel extinction. Thin fibers and fiber bundles with both straight and wavy sections. The ends of Chrysotile: bundles tend to be frayed. Indices are 1.529-1.559 and 1.537-1.576, birefringence of 0.004-0.016 and the fibers exhibit parallel extinction. Anthophyllite: Similar in morphology to amosite but refractive indices of 1.606-1.648 and 1.626-1.670, birefringence of 0.013-0.025 and extinction is parallel. Similar in morphology to amosite but is distinguished by blue to blue-green Crocidolite: pleochroic coloration and indices of 1.680-1.698 and 1.685-1.706. It is commonly referred to as blue asbestos. Transparent, elongated furrowed prisms, usually with uneven jagged ends and Tremolite -Actinolite smooth sides, with oblique extinction and positive elongation; indices are 1.559 - Series: 1.612 and 1.625-1.637. The two minerals are very similar chemically and grade into each other. Attached with this section of the report are the analytical results of the bulk material samples.
