What is the primary goal of remediation as defined by IICRC S520?

Sanitize the space
Sterilize the space
Return the space to Condition 1
Fix the moisture problem

The correct answer is: Return the space to Condition 1

The primary goal of remediation, as defined by IICRC S520, is to return the space to Condition 1. This concept refers to restoring an environment to a pre-incident condition, ensuring that it is clean, dry, and safe for occupancy. Condition 1 typically indicates a space that is free from contaminants, such as mold, moisture issues, or other hazardous substances, allowing for full use without health risks. Sanitizing or sterilizing a space may be part of the process but doesn't encompass the overall goal or scope of remediation. Addressing moisture problems is critical in preventing further damage and issues, but it is ultimately a part of the broader task of achieving Condition 1. Returning the space to this condition also implies comprehensive assessment, cleaning, and repairs necessary to make the indoor environment habitable and healthy again.
