947 - Post-remediation assessment and clearance.

  947. Post-remediation assessment and clearance. 1. For a remediated
  project to achieve clearance, a mold assessment licensee shall conduct a
  post-remediation  assessment.  The  post-remediation  assessment   shall
  determine whether:
(a) the work area is free from all visible mold; and
(b)  all  work  has  been completed in compliance with the remediation
  plan and remediation work plan and meets clearance criteria specified in
  the plan.
2.  Post-remediation  assessment  shall,  to  the   extent   feasible,
  determine  that  the underlying cause of the mold has been remediated so
  that it is reasonably certain that the mold will not  return  from  that
  remediated  area. If it has been determined that the underlying cause of
  the mold has not been remediated, the  mold  assessment  licensee  shall
  make  a  recommendation  to  the client as to the type of contractor who
  could remedy the source of the mold or the moisture causing the mold.
3. A mold assessment licensee who determines that remediation has been
  successful shall issue a written passed clearance report to  the  client
  at the conclusion of each mold remediation project.
4. If the mold assessment licensee determines that remediation has not
  been  successful, the licensee shall issue a written final status report
  to the client and to the  remediation  licensee  and  recommend  to  the
  client  that  either a new assessment be conducted, that the remediation
  plan as originally developed be completed, or the underlying  causes  of
  mold be addressed, as appropriate.
