1. Questions and Answers:

Q: 2517 Concord St is shown as a “* - Abate what can be abated and demo as ACM containing”. However, my read of the updated survey was that there is no ACM and the survey is complete. Now I think maybe it is the Mannik Smith “update” simply saying that the stuff in the original survey is there and there is no new stuff identified?
A: Mannik Smith completed a site visit for some properties that were originally surveyed years ago in order to ensure new materials did not appear/become apparent since the last survey. The cover page on 2517 Concord St. indicates that they did not find additional or new ACM. All of the ACM identified in the original survey (included in the same document) completed by Global Environmental on 9/12/2018 still remains with the structure. The 2018 survey was also limited due to fire damage, hence the “*” notation on the Unit Rate sheet.
