1.0 INTRODUCTION

Langan Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. has prepared this hazardous materials (Hazmat) assessment report to identify the presence/absence of Asbestos

Containing Materials (ACM), Lead-Based Paint (LBP); Polychlorinated Biphenyls

(PCB)/Mercury containing articles and other miscellaneous/universal hazmat materials;

and mold/moisture assessment at the Sandy Hook Lifesaving Station building located at

Gateway National Rec Area, Highlands, Monmouth County, New Jersey. We understand that the building was previously impacted by Hurricane Sandy and will be renovated as part of site restoration activities.

The purpose of the survey was to prepare an inventory of the hazmat materials so they could be appropriately segregated, removed and disposed prior to renovations. The remainder of this Report presents our observations, findings, laboratory test results of samples collected, and itemized inventory of hazmat identified in the building.

2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

The property is situated on a beachfront in Highlands, Monmouth County, New Jersey.

The site is improved with an approximate 2,400 square feet three-story with a partial basement masonry/wood structure built in 1894. The building is listed on the National

Register of Historic Places. It is also part of the Sandy Hook Proving Ground Historic

District.

3.0 ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

Asbestos-Containing Materials

The asbestos survey was conducted in accordance with EPA protocol outlined in the

EPA publication “Asbestos in Buildings”. Suspect ACM was visually identified during a room-by-room, floor-by-floor survey of the buildings. Suspect ACM was categorized into various homogeneous materials and types, and sampled and analyzed for asbestos content. Sampling and analysis was conducted in accordance with EPA protocol

600/M4-82-020 per 40 CFR 763. Samples collected were properly packaged in individual containers, sealed; catalogued and chain-of-custody documentation was

Sandy Hook Lifesaving Station Page 2

Gateway National Recreational Area

Highlands, Monmouth County, NJ

Langan Project No. 270039401 completed. Quantities of suspect materials were recorded and observations such as physical condition and friability of the materials were also noted.

Lead-Based Paint Screening Survey

A Niton XL300 X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Spectrum Analyzer was used to survey the subject building for the presence of lead-based paint (LBP). The Niton analyzer uses a cadmium 109 radioactive source and an advanced solid-state radiation detector to generate an x-ray fluorescence spectrum of a painted surface. During the analysis, the intensity of the x-rays is converted by the instrument’s internal software into an estimate of the concentration of lead in the substance being analyzed. The results are interpreted as concentrations of lead in milligrams per square centimeter. This device is a field-screening tool, used to collect multiple readings in a short period of time. The method of measurement is based on spectrometric analysis of lead x-ray fluorescence within a controlled depth of interrogation. The reading is an estimate of lead content in all layers of paint. The results are displayed in milligrams per square centimeter

(mg/cm2).

The definition of lead based paint as per the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines was used to compare and evaluate painted surfaces. According to HUD, an

XRF reading below 1.0 mg/cm2 would designate paint as non-LBP, while a reading of

1.0 mg/cm2 or greater would designate paint as LBP.

Mold and Moisture Assessment

The building was inspected and evaluated for historical and existing sources of water intrusion, presence/absence of visually apparent microbial growth and sources of characteristic microbial odors.

Moisture measurements were collected during the site assessment from various building components. A Delmhorst BD-2100 moisture meter was used to collect moisture readings from drywall, wood wall panel, and wooden joist. Measurements were compared against the manufacturer’s guidelines for assessing moisture content in building materials.

4.0 ASBESTOS CONTAINING MATERIALS

4.1 Terminology

Suspect Asbestos-Containing Materials

Asbestos was used in certain types of construction and building materials. Until a material is examined using light microscopy or a similar technique, the building material is considered as a suspect asbestos-containing material. A few examples of these materials include floor tiles, ceiling panels, thermal system insulation, fireproofing insulation, roofing materials, etc. Any suspect ACM of unknown asbestos content (that is not tested) should be handled as if it were an asbestos containing material.

Asbestos–Containing Material

A material with an asbestos concentration greater than one percent by weight is considered to be asbestos-containing by the United States Environmental

Protection Agency (USEPA). Thus, a material which contains asbestos in concentrations greater than 1% by weight is considered as “positive” while materials that do not contain asbestos or asbestos is detected in concentrations less than one percent by weight are considered as “negative”.

Friable Asbestos–Containing Material

A friable material is one that can be easily crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand or mechanical pressure. This characteristic of a building material is directly linked to the potential of the material to release asbestos fibers into the air.

Non-friable Asbestos–Containing Material

Materials that are organically bound normally fall into this category as long as they are in good condition. Some of the materials, which would be defined as non-friable material, include floor tiles, roofing materials, mastic, etc.

4.2 Observations and Findings

The field survey of the subject building was conducted on February 18, 2015 by

Langan’s Sanjay Patel and Fernando Velasquez, USEPA accredited asbestos

Langan Project No. 270039401

Asbestos content greater than one percent by weight was detected in two of these forty six samples analyzed. Refer to Table 1 for the summary of asbestos survey findings. Sampling locations are depicted on Drawings ASL-1 thru ASL-3.

The copy of laboratory test results and chain of custody documentation are provided in Appendix A.

5.0 LEAD-BASED PAINT

The LBP survey was also conducted on February 18, 2015 by Sanjay Patel, a USEPA-accredited and State of New Jersey certified Lead Inspector/Risk Assessor. The building areas that were screened primarily consisted of painted walls, floors, stair components, beams, columns, and windows and door components.

A total of fifty-five (55) painted locations were screened for lead. Based on the XRF screening results and a comparison of the data to the HUD guidelines, the paint on majority of the plaster walls and wooden wall, ceiling, beam, column, stair, door and window components in the building was identified as LBP. Overall, the paint on the building components was in good to fair condition. A summary of XRF screening data is provided in Table 2.

6.0 MISCELLANEOUS AND UNIVERSAL WASTE

As mandated by Subtitle C of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), EPA promulgated hazardous waste regulations in 1980 to ensure that wastes which pose a threat to human health and the environment would be managed safely. In order to be regulated as a hazardous waste under RCRA, a material must first be classified as a solid waste.

Hazardous waste is a waste with properties that make it dangerous or potentially harmful to human health or the environment. Hazardous waste are divided into listed wastes, characteristic wastes, universal wastes, and mixed wastes.

During the survey, a physical inventory of articles which could potentially become hazardous waste was performed which included building’s electrical/electronic system components and heat transformer equipment (i.e. light fixtures, EXIT signs, smoke detectors, A/C and HVAC units, etc.). For the purpose of this report, the ballasts associated with the light fixtures are assumed to contain PCBs; smoke detectors are http://www.epa.gov/osw/hazard/wastetypes/listed.htm http://www.epa.gov/osw/hazard/wastetypes/characteristic.htm http://www.epa.gov/osw/hazard/wastetypes/universal/index.htm

Langan Project No. 270039401 assumed to contain radioactive materials; heat transformer systems are assumed to contain Chlorodifluoromethanes (CFCs) or Hydrofluorocarbons (HCFCs); glass tubes are assumed to contain mercury vapors. An inventory summary of hazardous wastes and other miscellaneous materials/articles that may become hazardous waste is provided in

Table 3.

7.0 MOLD AND MOISTURE ASSESSMENT

The perimeter walls were covered with wooden shingle. The inner face of the perimeter walls were covered with gypsum boards. The interior partitions consisted of plaster walls partially covered with wooden wall panels, and wood frame covered with gypsum boards. The building was observed to have single layer of hardwood flooring.

Previously water impacted gypsum board/plaster (approximately 1 to 4 feet above ground) on the 1st floor was observed removed. A coating of white disinfection or encapsulant was observed on the floor and lower walls.

No visible signs of apparent microbial growth or microbial odors were noted during our site visit. Moisture measurements were collected from drywall and wooden components. Measurements were compared against the manufacturer’s guidelines for assessing moisture content in building materials.

The following is a summary of the measurements collected during the assessment:

8.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATION

8.1 Asbestos Containing Materials

Regulatory Guidelines and Requirements

Federal

In accordance with the Clean Air Act (CAA), the U.S. Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) established National Emission Standards for hazardous Air

Pollutants (NESHAP) to protect the public from exposure to airborne pollutants.

Asbestos was one of the air pollutants, which was addressed under the

NESHAP 40 CFR Part 61. The purpose of asbestos NESHAP regulations is to protect the public health by minimizing the release of asbestos when facilities, which contain ACM, are being renovated or demolished. EPA is responsible for enforcing regulations related to asbestos during renovations and demolition, however, the CAA allows the EPA to delegate this authority to State and Local

Agencies. Even after EPA delegates responsibility to a state or Local agency, EPA retains the authority to oversee agency performance and to enforce

NESHAP regulations as appropriate.

State

Asbestos in New Jersey is regulated by Chapter 60 and 120, “Asbestos

Licenses and Permits”, published jointly by the New Jersey Department of

Health and Senior Services (NJDHSS) and New Jersey Department of Labor

(NJDOL) as N.J.A.C. 8:60 and 12:120; and the Department of Community Affairs

(DCA) N.J.A.C. 5:23 Subchapter 8 (educational facilities, public buildings, daycare center or nursery). These regulations pertain to licensing of asbestos abatement workers, supervisors and contractors and impose requirements relating to hazards to the public safety and health, during the removal, encapsulation, or disturbance of friable asbestos, or any handling of ACM that may result in the release of asbestos fibers.

All identified ACM which would be impacted by the planned renovation activities must be properly removed prior to performing such activities. The removal and disposal of ACM must be performed by a licensed asbestos handling contractor.

Sandy Hook Lifesaving Station Page 8

Gateway National Recreational Area

Highlands, Monmouth County, NJ

Langan Project No. 270039401

Proper notifications must be filed with the USEPA, State of New Jersey and other regulatory agencies prior to performing such activities.

Non-friable asbestos-containing floor tiles and exterior mastic around chimney were identified in the subject building. Refer to Table 1 for the details of asbestos survey findings.

This being a public building, abatement work inside the building is required to be performed in accordance with N.J.A.C. 5:23, Subchapter 8 regulations. The contractor has also an option to uses non-friable removal procedures. If non-friable removal option is used, the work shall be performed using the NJDHSS approved Resilient Floor Covering Institute’s (RFCI’s) removal procedures. The removal of non-friable ACM floor tiles and exterior mastic shall be performed using procedures which will not cause the building environment to become contaminated with airborne asbestos fibers.

Estimated costs for the abatement of all identified ACM are provided in Table 4.

8.2 Lead Based Paint

Based on the XRF screening results and a comparison of the data to the HUD guidelines, the following building components were identified painted with LBP:

Wooden Wall/Ceiling, Window and Door Components – Throughout

Plaster Walls – Throughout

Metal Radiator – Selected Locations

Refer to Table 3 for the XRF screening data.

Handling of any building components planned for demolition/renovations will require dust suppression and control relative to OSHA compliance and good industry practice to prevent fugitive dust exposure to personnel.

Please note that although the HUD defines lead based paint as paint having lead concentrations equal or greater than 1.0 mg/cm2, however, the Occupational

Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) considers any concentration of lead in

Sandy Hook Lifesaving Station Page 9

Gateway National Recreational Area

Highlands, Monmouth County, NJ

Langan Project No. 270039401 paint to be lead containing paint. Regardless of the lead concentrations in paint, the contractor shall comply with 29 CFR 1926.62, OSHA regulations, and take precautionary measures for dust control and limit employee exposure to lead dust during the renovations.

Regardless of the lead concentrations, painted surfaces that would be impacted by planned activities which include drilling, cutting, etc. and create dust should be properly addressed by following safe work practices and good housekeeping procedures. Grinding and sanding of paint without High Efficiency Particulate Air

(HEPA) filter exhaust, open flame gas fired torch, unconfined abrasive blasting, and chemical strippers containing methylene chloride or other human carcinogenic chemicals are not recommended.

The Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) regulation governs the handling, transportation, and disposal of hazardous materials. Every demolition/renovation debris generator has the responsibility to determine whether the debris exhibits one or more of the characteristic wastes listed in subpart C of 40 CFR Part 261. In the case of demolition debris, lead in LBP is a characteristic waste, and therefore, it is the responsibility of the renovation/demolition debris generator to characterize the waste prior to its disposal and, if found to be hazardous waste as defined by Federal Statutes, to be properly handled and disposed.

Metal objects painted with LBP are exempt from disposal regulations applicable to lead, provided they are properly recycled. Therefore, metal objects that are painted with LBP should be sent to a certified recycling facility.

8.3 Miscellaneous and Universal Wastes

Miscellaneous and universal wastes consisting of fluorescent light ballasts, fluorescent light bulbs, electrical/electronic devices, unknown chemicals, etc.

were identified in the building. Refer to Table 3 for an inventory of miscellaneous and universal waste articles identified in the building.

Miscellaneous and universal waste, which would require replacement/removal, will need to be properly recycled and/or disposed of at a landfill permitted to

Sandy Hook Lifesaving Station Page 10

Gateway National Recreational Area

Highlands, Monmouth County, NJ

Langan Project No. 270039401 accept such waste. The removal, handling, recycling, and disposal should be performed in accordance with applicable Federal, State, and local regulations.

8.4 Mold and Moisture Assessment

Based on our visual survey and the real time moisture measurements, the building components (i.e. drywall, wooden panels, plaster walls, and wooden floor elements) were observed fairly dry. No visible signs of apparent microbial growth or microbial odors were noted during our site visit. All surfaces in the building should be maintained in dry condition.

9.0 LIMITATIONS, EXCEPTIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS

Opinions and recommendations presented in this report apply to site conditions and features as they existed at the time of Langan’s site visit, and those reasonably foreseeable. They cannot necessarily apply to conditions and features of which Langan is unaware and has not had the opportunity to evaluate.

The conclusions presented in this report are professional opinions based solely upon

Langan’s visual observations of accessible areas, laboratory test data, and current regulatory requirements. These conclusions are intended exclusively for the purpose stated herein, at the site indicated, and for the project indicated.

This report has been prepared solely to discuss the findings of the data gathered during our survey which was conducted to address areas which were impacted by the storm surge.

It is important to recognize that even the most comprehensive scope of services may fail to detect all hazmat that may be associated with the property. Therefore, Langan cannot act as insurers and cannot “certify” that all hazmat associated with the property have been identified, and no expressed or implied representation or warranty is included or intended in our report, except that our services were performed, within the limits prescribed by our client, with the customary thoroughness and competence of our profession.
