In general, which remediation guidelines/standards should a remediator be familiar
with? - ANSWER: S500 (Water) // S520 (Mold) // NY City Guidelines
The industry standard of care document for mold remediation contractors is...? -
ANSWER: S520 Standard for Professional Mold Remediation
What does "normal fungal ecology" mean? - ANSWER: Condition 1 // Normal or
uncontaminated building or items // Indoor environment that may have settled
spores, fungal fragments whose identity; location and quantity are reflective of a
normal fungal ecology for a similar indoor environment // no treatment necessary
Describe a Condition 2 - ANSWER: Indoor environment which is primarily
contaminated with settled spores that were dispersed directly or indirectly from a
condition 3 area // Spores landed on indoor surfaces or are suspended in the air but
are not actively growing // HEPA vacuuming or damp wiping
Describe a Condition 3 - ANSWER: Indoor environment contaminated with the
presence of actual mold growth and associated spores // Actual growth includes
growth that is active or dormant, visible or hidden

particulate matter of 0.3 microns and larger
What are the three main principles used for protecting people and unaffected
environments? - ANSWER: Isolation of work area, managing air flow and controlled
demolition
What are the goals in a microbial remediation project for the remediator and IEP
(Indoor Environmental Professional)? - ANSWER: Preloss conditions // safe &
sanitary // Condition 1 - normal fungal ecology
What factors are necessary for mold growth to occur? - ANSWER: Water source
What is the best way to prevent mold growth in a building? - ANSWER: Keep building
dry and when wet, dry immediately and expediently
