Weston Inc., 1999: Collected mold samples in the "mail sort" area and found the growth could be attributed to "excess moisture seeping through the walls." Reported that the material is "no threat to DIA employees and contractors." • Tri-County Health Department, 2001: Used tracer gases to track odors in the Red Carpet Club West. Found odors emanating from elevator shaft and air-handling unit. A moldy and smelly trash can also discovered. • URS Corp., 2001: Found odors linked to decomposing de-icing fluid were making their way from outside storm drains into the Red Carpet Club West, a major component of the club's odor problem.
