Board approves $4,800 asbestos assessment for Long Term Care project

Merrick County Board of Supervisors · February 24, 2026

Summary

The Merrick County Board authorized a $4,800 lump-sum Task 1 asbestos assessment from B2 Environmental for Long Term Care and approved proceeding with initial abatement work; further testing and clearances were quoted separately.

The Merrick County Board of Supervisors voted to proceed with Task 1 of an asbestos assessment for a Long Term Care facility, approving a $4,800 lump-sum project scope of work from B2 Environmental. Supervisor Jarecke moved to proceed and Supervisor Dexter seconded; roll call recorded all ayes.

Melissa Van DeWalle provided the Long Term Care update and Tyson Benne relayed B2 Environmental’s proposal, which listed Task 1 — Project Scope of Work Services — at $4,800.00 (lump sum), Task 2 — ambient daily air monitoring (PCM) — at $850.00 per day, and Task 3 — visual/air clearance (PCM) — at $700.00 per clearance. The board’s motion authorized only Task 1 in this session; the quoted costs for additional monitoring and clearance work remain separate and would require further action before those services are procured or paid.

The action will allow B2 Environmental to begin the initial scope work while the county or Long Term Care determines whether to proceed with subsequent monitoring and clearance tasks. The measure was recorded as “all ayes” on the roll call; no amendments or alternate contractors were introduced during discussion.
