of medical supplies and controlled narcotic containers within the warehouse section of
the Emergency Service Building located at 510 Meadowlands Drive, Hillsborough. ESG

Proposal for Phase 1:
➢ Sasser Companies will place a generator on site to provide power for up to 10
HEPA equipped, negative air machines. (Price is quoted for not to exceed 5 days
on both the generator and the ten (10) air scrubbers).
➢ Sasser Companies will make plans to have a 30-yard dumpster delivered to the
gravel parking lot to the rear of the building for selective content disposal.
➢ Sasser Companies will clean the secured drug storage room, so it is prepared for
the intake of the controlled narcotics and other items Orange County emergency
staff deem necessary to store within this room. (This room has already been
tested by the Environmental Solutions Group and deemed as a pass. Sasser
Companies will HEPA vacuum the floor to eliminate the dust and debris without
stirring up dust and particulate)
➢ Sasser Companies will remediate the controlled narcotics storage cabinet exterior
as the interior has passed the testing of the Environmental Solutions Group. Once
the cabinet is remediated a plastic bag will be placed over and the cabinet will be
moved to the secured storage room where it will be unbagged and left for testing
if so desired.
➢ Sasser Companies will remediate the items within the storage pod as well as the
pod itself. Sasser Companies will also seal out outside air intrusions and possibly
build a zipper door and decontamination chamber on the interior of the pod.
➢ Sasser Companies will discard items deemed non-salvageable from within racks
D and E. (The assistance of an Orange County employee would be ideal to ensure
an item does not get discarded that should be retained and for Sasser Companies
to provide education on items that they are wanting salvaged of a non-salvaged
nature per the standard of the S520. In this event, Sasser Companies will
remediate the items with all parties having the knowledge that the remediated
items are going against the S520, relieving Sasser Companies of the liability for
those items and advising Orange County to keep watch to ensure growth does not
re-develop.
➢ Any items of a medical supply nature that is to be discarded will need to be
counted and inventoried by Orange County staff prior to disposal.
➢ Items such as scissors that were pointed out will be evaluated to see if it would be
cheaper to discard or clean by an Orange County employee.
o SPECIAL NOTE: No sterile items can be repackaged by Sasser
Companies.
➢ Sasser Companies will remediate the salvageable items from racks D and E
placing them in a location to be controlled and tested prior to going within the
reefer trailer. There may be a chamber system set up within the reefer trailer to
establish testing zones to prevent contamination of the entire trailer.
o As discussed, Sasser Companies will be providing boxes for the necessary
