Dear HCMS Community,

Following a custodial inspection at HCMS, the Office of the Environment identified mold growth (approximately six linear feet) while investigating an odor on September 25, 2019. The mold growth is located behind cove base in a storage closet and a conference room within the administrative office. A board-approved remediation contractor will be scheduled to remove impacted materials (tentatively Saturday, September 28). In the meantime, an air scrubber has been placed in the conference room to reduce any odors from emanating into the administration office. The cause of the mold growth is not yet known. Once the drywall is removed, the cavity will be inspected for a potential moisture source.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at 410-313-6929.
