SUBJECT: Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Assessment
FISH 104
On September 6, 2007 I conducted an assessment FISH 104 at Indian Ridge Middle School. This evaluation
included observations of the flooring system, ceiling tiles, false ceiling plenum, environmental surfaces, interior
and exterior walls, and the accessible ventilation equipment. Additionally, environmental parameter
measurements were taken to include temperature, relative humidity, and carbon dioxide. The detailed
findings, along with the recommended corrective action can be found on the attached IAQ Assessment
Worksheets.
Generally, the IAQ Assessment did not identify any existing conditions significantly impacting IAQ and
thereby presenting immediate health and safety concerns to building occupants. However, due to individual
sensitivities and predisposing health factors, it is possible that some building occupants may elicit a health
response to agents and / or conditions identified during the evaluation. Therefore, to further improve IAQ,
prevent development of future IAQ-related problems, and to reduce the potential for IAQ-related complaints by
building occupants, the IAQ Assessment Team recommends appropriate follow up of each item identified and
listed in the attached evaluation.
Please ensure that your Head Facilities Serviceperson receives a copy of this correspondence so that the
recommendations requiring their attention can be addressed. Within two weeks a representative from the
Custodial/Grounds Department will conduct a follow-up visit to ensure that all issues have been appropriately
addressed.
Should any questions arise, or if the current concerns continue after the attached recommendations have been
addressed, please feel free to contact me at 754-321-3200.
