D. Sampling and analysis of suspect materials is performed in an effort to try and confirm the presence of asbestos, or eliminate suspect materials as ACMs. Elimination of a material as ACM for purposes of maintenance, renovation or demolition occurs if: 1) the material is visibly non -ACM (fiberglass and rubberized materials); 2) documentation indicates that the materials used in manufacture are non -ACM; or 3) sampling and analysis are performed. E. Sample collection by an Indiana Certified Asbestos Building Inspector will involve extraction/separation of approximately l to 10 cubic centimeters of the suspect material, inclusive of all layers present within the material. Samples will be analyzed using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) coupled with dispersion staining. F. According to OSHA Construction Standards, negative analysis for a minimum of three (3) samples is required to conclusively determine a material as being non -ACM. In addition, all of the samples must be from the same homogeneous area (color, texture and estimated date of installation). Jones Petrie Rafinski will attempt, through application of our sampling strategy, to make a determination of the asbestos content of any identified homogeneous materials for which sampling is in fact performed (i.e., certain materials may be assumed to be asbestos -containing).
