Jimmy ..... Per ECS request, Ms. Strachan prov ided a list of test dates and sites for the upcoming FCAT testing on campus, Al l FCAT activity will belimited to building # 10. As you may recal!, this was the only building on site without signs of rodent activity, therefore, ECS crews will not be performingany cleaning activities in the building and, therefore, will not interfere with any FCAT-related school functions. I will hold-off on cleaning activities in studentdining during FCAT testing just to be certain we do not interfere with those students having breakfast on test days.

Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns regarding the cleaning schedule ....... hanks, Paul

Ms. Strachan .... n accordance with the recent PBCHD school inspection comments, Facilities Services and ECS have been workingtogether to address the pest control issues on campus prior to a scheduled re-inspection of your campus on March 12,2012. ECS hasretained two fully-qualified environmental contractors; Duraclean & Prism Response to re-clean above drop ceilings in all campusbuildings with the exception of classroom building # 10 (building # 10 was thoroughly inspected and found to be free from pest debrisabove drop ceilings). Facilities Services custodial cleaning crews have already addressed a more detailed cleaning of cabinet andfurnishing interiors throughout campus with enhanced cleaning anticipated over summer break.

The amount of environmental cleaning work on campus is substantial; therefore, ECS will begin this weekend (02/15112) in buildingswhere there has not been any pest activity detected since the District's initial response in early February. The work will continue weekdaysafter school-hours until completion. ECS is committed to working with school administration during FCAT testing to modify the cleaningschedule as needed to accommodate testing needs.

Cleaning will start in buildings # 1, # 5, # 7 & # 8 and also includes a wipe-down of accessible flat surfaces in affected rooms with anapproved disinfectant in addition to the ceiling work. Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns ... hanks. Paul

Steve &Jimmy ..... One of the ECS contractors tasks for this project is replacement of damaged or soiled ceiling tiles. Can FacilitiesServices supply the replacement tiles ?? If so, can I get a few cases sent to the school now?? We are going to start some cleaningwork soon. I'll have more details tomorrow morning on our proposed schedule.

Ms. Strachan .... n accordance with the recent PBCHD school inspection comments, Facilities Services and ECS havebeen working together to address the pest control issues on campus prior to a scheduled re-inspection of your campus onMarch 12,2012. ECS has retained two fully-qualified environmental contractors; Duraclean & Prism Response to re-cleanabove drop ceilings in all campus buildings with the exception of classroom building # 10 (building # 10 was thoroughlyinspected and found to be free from pest debris above drop ceilings). Facilities Services custodial cleaning crews havealready addressed a more detailed cleaning of cabinet and furnishing interiors throughout campus with enhanced cleaninganticipated over summer break.

The amount of environmental cleaning work on campus is substantial; therefore, ECS will begin this weekend (02/15/12) in

buildings where there has not been any pest activity detected since the District's initial response in early February. Thework will continue weekdays after school-hours until completion. ECS is committed to working with school administrationduring FCAT testing to modify the cleaning schedule as needed to accommodate testing needs.

Cleaning will start in buildings # 1, # 5, # 7 & # 8 and also includes a wipe-down of accessible flat surfaces in affected rooms with an approved disinfectant in addition to the ceiling work. Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns .... hanks, Paul

Ms. Strachan ...... ECS has been advised that instructors in room # 5-104, # 5-105 and # 2-104 have expressed concerns with possible health effects related to the recent District activities on campus. In some cases, the instructors have sought permission to keep windows & doors open to "air out" classrooms.

Please ensure that any employee experiencing adverse health effects in the workplace submits a "Notice of

1st Injury" to Risk Management within 7 days per District policy. Please contact Nancy Patrick in Risk

Management if there are any questions regarding the notification policy or procedure.

Building # 5 and building # 2 have both undergone intensive cleaning by qualified environmental contractorsusing approved disinfectants and air-scrubbing equipment. Follow-up cleaning is also being scheduled for thelast week in February in all campus buildings. In addition, the HVAC systems have been inspected by

qualified District HVAC technicians and all air-filters were recently changed. If there are specific complaintsfrom the occupants of the three classrooms involved, ECS would be glad to conduct follow-up assessments if

details are provided. A check with the school nurse has not indicated an unusual increase in student illness.

Exterior windows & doors must be kept closed while HVAC systems are operating to prevent the formation of

condensation and surface mold. The District's energy conservation measures also mandate closed windows

& doors in District facilities. Please let me know if any additional guidance is needed to resolve thismatter ..... thanks, Paul

After hearing from Jim Chapman about the Friday (10th) inspection of some 40 rooms, I don't feel comfortable having the HD come back

yet. He and Kesta are going to try and finish inspecting above ceiling the rest of the rooms today. He said the Admin wing was theworst, the Media Center the best and classrooms from light to medium with droppings.

Good morning Paul,

Ms. Strachan called this morning and was inquiring about the indoor air quality assessment conducted Thursday and Friday of last week.She indicated that someone from ECS reported more droppings above the ceilings. Can you confirm that more dropping were found, ifyou plan on sending Duraclean back to clean above the ceilings again and when?

Thank you,

Jimmy:ECS staff is still in the process of evaluating all of the buildings on campus, we are not finished yet. It is my understanding that cleaningwill be conducted again after the rodents are eradicated. As of last week there was still rodent activity. Paul may have a more detailedplan that he can share when he returns on Wednesday.Thanks, Consuelo

Ms. Strachan ..... ECS needs to conduct a post-clean up inspection of all school buildings above drop ceilings to ensure recent cleaning activities are adequate. Our plan is to have two or three ECS employees conduct the visual inspection during school hours. The work would be minimally intrusive and only take a minute or two for each classroom.

If possible, we would like to get started tomorrow (and may need to borrow one of the campus step-Iadders) ..... hanks, Paul

Jim ..... Attached for Facilities Services review & action is a copy of the PBCHD partial-campus inspection conducted today. Only building #2. # 5 & # 6 were inspected. The entire campus will be re-inspected on March 5, 2012. Please review the report requirements and discuss a corrective action plan with Ms. Strachan quickly so she is prepared to address parent concerns or press inquiries.

1) The Health Department is requested a more thorough cleaning of the campus to include the interiors of cabinets that may have been impacted by insects including cockroaches. 2) The Health Department is requesting additional sealing of acoustical ceiling tile penetrations and gaps. They are also requesting sealing of all small gaps where classroom cabinets meet exterior walls (old un it ventilator sites).

During my post-inspection meeting with Ms. Strachan. she mentioned that staff in building # 10 have concerns with cockroaches including

room # 10-111. Please let me know if there are any questions regarding this report. Ms. Strachan was attending an urgent PTA meeting; therefore. I Signed the inspection report on beha lf of the District... ..... hanks. Paul

Paul.

I will have the Zone Team address the small cracks where the cabinets join together. Do you have a location where they want additional acoustical ceiling gaps sealed?

FYI, Emptying all the cabinets and wiping them down can not be accomplished by the three custodians at the school along with their

nightly work. This will require an outside cleaning crew and will take several days a t least. Each teaci1er would have to remove all sto rage from the cabinets while they are wiped out.

Jim ..... The Health Department only provided rooms # 2-101,5-108,5-104 and 6-108 as rooms needing ceiling tile and cabinet sealing, butin verbal comments wanted to be sure the entire campus is re-evaluated and sealed as needed (They only insepcted three buildingstoday).

I agree .... he cabinet & intensive room cleaning the Health Department is requesting is a tremendous amount of work.

Chris - I want them to do the cleaning described in the inspection report.

Jim - Can we keep at least 2-3 carpenters there working on the ceiling tiles. "m not sure they mean by sealing the ceiling tiles. What's the

expectation beyond make sure the tiles fill the grid?

Chris ... 1 will speak with Duraclean this morning and revise the cleaning workscope in accordance with the PBCHD report requirements.Prism is also working on campus inside building. # 6 (Duraclean could not adequately staff the project conducted last night). We may needto split the campus and give each contractor a section considering the time limit involved. I alsO need to coordinate the work with Jimmyand school administration, we will need some school support. The cleaning will be disruptive to classroom operations; therefore, I believemost of the tasks involved will need to be conducted after school-hours and weekends.

As to the ceiling tiles and cabinets, the inspectors indicated they wanted to see all tiles tight to the grid and with no gaps around penetrations. All cabinets tha t adjoin exterior walls also need to be sealed, top & bottom if any gaps are present.

The campus may need full-scale treatment for cockroaches with building # 10 being the largest concern.

thanks ...... Paul

We didn't have good luck with hired labor this past weekend from A&Associates they were supposed to send 10 people and only four

showed up. No A&A supervisory contacts showed up to see if anyone even showed up. Out of the four none of them worked a full day

and were difficult to deal with because they didn' t seem to want to work. I ended up sending them home. I found them Sitting in

receiving doing nothing twice.

J'm sure I can get iI!'10Llse custodians to wor k over time from other schools, but we will have to work out how to pay them in People

Soft.

I still don't want to pay $30/hour to wipe down surfaces. That'll be the next story in the press.

Don't we have cleaning vendors we can call and pay $8/hr or less. This isn't rocket science.

When the lAO Contract went out $30/hr or $0,90/sq/ft was the lowest prices for general cleaning and sanitizing.

Some of these firms are very efficient at $30/hr, but not when you add the labor of emptying and restocking cabinets and shelves. Cabinets seldom have their interiors cleaned, because teachers won't empty them and custodians are blamed if they misplace things or don't restock in the exact place the teachers desire. I've recommended to principals in the past to change classrooms yearly to get teachers to move their belongings out.

I'm sure the vendors that our ancillary facilities are not charging $30/hour. Any reason we cannot use them? I want Duraclean to continueworking until we can either get in-house custodians. the cleaning vendors and/or the staffing company to step up. I want activityhappening every day until we are assured that we will pass the next DOH inspection with flying colors.

I have Morris in Purchasing checking to see if we can use the bid for the ancillary sites for Panther Run.

I talked to Ms Strachen this morning about the teachers possibly cleaning out their own cabinets to save us time and money. She agreedthat it was the teachers responsibly to remove the storage and she would ask the teachers to help. Given that, it shouldn't take long towipe some cabinets in each room.

I asked Morris to get me five people for three days. I will coordinate with the school and go building to building wiping interior cabinetry.

If we can't use the ancillary bid, we can go with A& Associates again or get some District custodians to work some OT. I think for about 4days working fours hour a night with 6 people I could have it done. That's 90 hours of custodial overtime. I don't know the average salary,but if it's an average of $13.00 per hour per person comes to $ $1755.00. Shirley would know the average better than L

Jim ...... ECS contractor Duraclean will be returning to the campus after school-hours today to finish-up building # 6 (Media Center). Therodent debris above the drop ceilings was significant and could not be 100% completed yesterday. The eastern 1/2 of the building whichhouses mostly Media production rooms require attention, everything else was completed as scheduled.

From the debris pattern encountered, it appears that building # 6 was the center of rodent activity on campus. The area above the dropceilings in building # 2 (four classrooms) and building # 5 (twelve classrooms), plus five rooms in building # 6 were thoroughly cleanedyesterday including disinfection of flat classroom surfaces. Duraclean also cleaned the mechanical chases in building # 2. The chases inbuilding # 5 and # 6 were cleaned by Facilities Services crews.

One dying rodent was encountered in the courtyard between building # 5 & # 4 last evening ...... t was captured, bagged and placed in

the trash-can next to MER # 5-191 for Pest Control pick-up this morning.

Please let me know if any additional assistance is needed from ECS to resolve this matter ....... hanks, Paul
