We were finally contacted by the new asbestos testing and remediation planning company hired by the owner of the building. Under Colorado law, a separate company registered to test asbestos must do the initial work of establishing it’s presence and lay out the requirements for a second company to remove the material. Yet a third company will do the restoration of the building and prepare it for occupancy.
This new testing company has assured us that we will be contacted as soon as a certified removal company is selected. While the owner of this company could not be sure of the timing, he guessed that it would take about 10 days to make the selection of the removal company who would then let us know their plan and the cost to recover the inventory. I believe it may well be longer than that. It is hard to understand the complexity of this process but it is under the regulatory authority of four or five different state and federal agencies.
The city and county of Aurora Colorado is apparently moving very carefully. After the tragedy of the shooting at the mall theater here, the city is reluctant to make decisions that may be subject to future lawsuits. That and the hassle associated with governmental regulation at all levels have meant the everything has to be checked and approved more than a few times.
We have attached two other samples from the Soviet and Axis OBs that allow players to leave off the war in Finland to save space and speed the main front play.
