The Hazardous Materials Summary, Asbestos Sampling Inventory, Asbestos Sample and Material

Location Drawings, Photo Documentation, Asbestos Analytical Reports, and Lead XRF Sequential

Report can be found in Appendix A – Building Data.

All asbestos (>0.1%) disturbance and/or removal operations must be conducted by a Cal/OSHA registered and State licensed asbestos removal contractor. All disturbance and/or abatement operations should be performed under the direction of a California Certified Asbestos Consultant.

Should the removal of identified regulated asbestos-containing materials (RACM) involve at least 100 square feet or 100 linear feet per project site, per year, then notification to the Bay Area Air Quality

Management District (BAAQMD) and Cal/OSHA must be accomplished prior to the initiation of such activities.

All activities involving potential and identified lead-containing surfaces should be conducted in accordance with California Health & Safety Code sections 17920.10 and 10525, 10525.7, Title 8, California Code of Regulations (CCR), Section 1532.1.

In addition, all removal activities involving identified lead-based paints (LBP) must be conducted in accordance with Title 17, CCR, Division 1, Chapter 8, Sections 35001 through 36100, which proscribes the use of California Department of Public Health (CDPH) certified workers, work practices, and other requirements.

Written notification to Cal/OSHA must be accomplished should LBP activities involve equal to or more than 100 square feet or 100 linear feet of removal in accordance with the requirements of 8 CCR 1532.1.

iii

Any welding, cutting or heating of metal surfaces containing surface coatings should be conducted in accordance with 8 CCR 1537 Welding, Cutting, and Heating of Coated Metals, which require surfaces covered with toxic preservatives, and in enclosed areas, be stripped of all toxic coatings for a distance of at least 4 inches, in all directions, from the area of heat application prior to the initiation of such heat application, or 8 CCR 1536 Ventilation Requirements for Welding, Brazing, and Cutting. Vista recommends that the paint is stripped 12 inches, in all directions, from the area of heat application prior to the initiation of such heat application.

All clean-up activities involving hazardous materials must be conducted by personnel trained in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 265.16; Title 22 CCR 66265.16 and 66273.36, Title 8, CCR, Section 5194 - Hazard Communication and wearing respiratory protection in accordance with Title 8, CCR, Section 5155.

All personnel who perform hazardous materials work must be trained and qualified to do so. They must also follow the most current OSHA regulations including 29 CFR 1910.120 and 8 CCR 5192, Hazardous

Waste Operations and Emergency Response, as well as other applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.

Waste stream segregation and analysis is required in accordance with 22 CCR Division 4.5, Minimum

Standards for Management of Hazardous and Extremely Hazardous Wastes. The resulting wastes may be hazardous under California and federal RCRA standards for metals and therefore require proper handling, packaging, labeling, and transportation under a proper manifest to a permitted hazardous waste storage, treatment and disposal facility. The contractor should contact the waste disposal site(s) for specific waste characterization testing requirements.

All potential and identified Universal Waste materials (UW) impacted by the work should be removed and recycled or disposed of in accordance with the UW guidelines established by the DTSC, as stated in

22 CCR Sections 66261.9 and 66273.1 thru 66273.90.

All ballasts must be visually inspected prior to disposal to determine if they contain PCB’s. Those ballasts marked No PCB’s or PCB Free can be considered as such as should be treated as UW - electronic waste.

All PCB-containing devices, including, but not limited to ballasts should be removed or have the oils removed and properly handled, collected, stored, transported and recycled or disposed of by an approved recycling or disposal facility in accordance with the requirements of Title 22 CCR 67426.1.

Devices containing low-level radiation, should be collected, waste characterized, disposed or recycled according to California rules and regulations.

iv

The documents found in the appendices are not stand-alone documents and should not be separated from this report. Quantities and locations listed in the tables are order of magnitude estimates and are not to be used for bidding purposes. It is the sole responsibility of the contractor to verify quantities and locations of hazardous materials in the path of construction through site visits and contractual bid set documents, including, but not limited to all specifications, drawings, and addenda. Any discrepancies between the contractual bid set documentation and site visits must be submitted in writing to the Owner or Owner’s representative, prior to bidding.

Representative painted and coated building components were assessed and categorized based on standard selective demolition practices and sampled for lead content which can be used in preliminary waste stream characterization estimates.

Visible and accessible materials commonly found in buildings which can potentially have hazardous properties that are regulated were assessed, but not sampled. These materials include, but are not limited to:

Universal Waste (UW) materials, such as non-incandescent lamps, batteries, mercury-containing devices, and electronic waste; Batteries include, but are not limited to those found in exit signs, emergency lights, fire alarm systems, and back-up power systems.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) containing devices such as lamp ballasts, wet-type transformers, and hydraulic systems.

Smoke detectors that contain low-level radioactive sources.

2.0 METHODOLOGY

Vista performed the pre-renovation hazardous materials survey on July 29, 2020. The asbestos survey was conducted by Christopher Burns, a State of California Division of Occupational Safety and Health

(Cal/OSHA) Certified Asbestos Consultant (CAC) #92-0224. Assisting on the survey was Greg Marszal, a Cal/OSHA Certified Site Surveillance Technician (CSST) #96-1975. The lead paint screening survey was conducted by Christopher Burns, a California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Lead-Related

Construction Inspector/Assessor (LRCIA) #LRC-00006938.

The survey performed was not intrusive in nature, but did not include access of areas and sampling of materials which would have required demolition or large scale destructive testing. Roof sampling was performed using 3” stainless steel cores down to the first hard substrate. Vista’s intent was to perform a thorough a survey and made a good faith effort to access all building materials down to the structural components and/or interstitial spaces. Vista made every effort to access these areas, however because non-destructive techniques had to be employed to keep the facilities operational, not all interstitial spaces could be accessed.

Quantities and locations are based upon areas that were accessed. Materials similar to those in this report may be present in areas which were not accessed.

2.1 Asbestos

The asbestos survey was performed generally in accordance with the AHERA protocol (40 CFR Part 763, Subpart E). Visual identification was performed by assessing visible and accessible structural, architectural, and mechanical components in the path of construction for the presence of suspect ACM at the Project Site.

This asbestos survey was conducted in the following manner:

Suspect ACM was categorized into homogeneous materials. A homogeneous material is defined as being a surfacing material, thermal system insulation, or miscellaneous material which is uniform in color and texture. It may also be additionally subcategorized using the date of installation, when available. Each homogenous material is given a coding letter which can be found in charts, drawings and sample numbering.

A sampling scheme was developed based on the location and quantity of the suspect homogeneous ACM. A rough order of magnitude estimate of each suspect homogenous ACM was calculated and recorded for future reference. A sampling scheme, including a specific number of samples per suspect homogeneous ACM, was calculated prior to sampling.

Sampling guidelines established by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and BAAQMD Regulation 11, Hazardous Pollutants, Rule 2, Asbestos was utilized for sampling each suspected homogeneous ACM. Methods described in Appendix K of 8 California Code of

Regulation (CCR) 1529 were utilized in the collection of each suspect homogeneous ACM sample.

Trained California asbestos certified personnel, using appropriate sampling tools and sterile leak-tight Whirl-pak® containers or equivalent, collected building materials that were suspected to contain ACM.

Each suspect ACM sample was collected and sealed in its container and appropriately labeled with a unique sample identification number and recorded on an asbestos bulk sampling log. Each log contains a chain-of-custody to assure the proper transition of the samples from Vista to the analytical laboratory.

Sampling tools were decontaminated by using a clean wet cloth between the collection of each suspect sample to prevent the possibility of cross contamination to subsequent suspect ACM samples.

Suspect ACM samples were delivered, under proper chain-of-custody protocol, to SGS Forensic

Analytical Laboratories (Forensic) in Hayward, California. Forensic is accredited under the National

Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) and the California Environmental Laboratory

- 3 -

Accreditation Program (Cal-ELAP). The samples were submitted for analysis by Polarized Light

Microscopy (PLM) utilizing dispersion staining techniques in accordance with the EPA’s “Method for the

Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials” U.S. EPA/600/R-93/116, Visual Area Estimate, dated July 1993 and adopted by the NVLAP as Test Method Code 18/A01.

Samples of asbestos-containing door, window, and louver frame sealant and concrete coating were further analyzed by 400-point point count, utilizing National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants

(NESHAP) Final Rule, 40 CFR, Part 61 methodology.

2.2 Lead

Vista’s lead construction screening survey used an X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) direct read spectrum analyzer device to take readings of representative painted and coated surfaces for evaluation of lead levels for worker health and safety and preliminary waste characterization prior to construction activities. The device used was a NITON Corporation XRF Spectrum Analyzer, Model XLp- 300 A. This device is a solid-state detector optimized for lead L-shell and K-shell X-ray detection and uses a 40 mCi 109Cd

(1,480 Mbq) isotope for an excitation source.

This survey was a limited screening of paint for the purpose of characterizing the lead content in paint and coatings likely to be disturbed during work activities. For this purpose, XRF analysis was used to screen for lead levels and provides results that are generally representative of typical conditions but are not inclusive of all painted/coated surfaces present at the Project Site. This survey was not a surface by surface inspection as outlined in the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)

Guidelines For the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing pursuant to Title X of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992. These data can be helpful in evaluation of lead-related environmental risks in general, but cannot be used to calculate worker exposures and is not a substitute for employee exposure monitoring or waste stream sampling.

2.3 Devices with Potential Hazardous Materials

Devices with potential hazardous materials were visually identified during the survey walk through and their quantities were estimated and recorded. No attempt was made to disassemble devices or sample suspect materials within the devices. For example, fluorescent light fixtures must be presumed to contain

Universal Waste lamps and ballasts which contain PCB oil or are electronic waste, pending removal and disassembly of each unit to determine explicit product specific information that proves otherwise.

XRF Sampling

For purposes of this survey, and in accordance with Title 8 CCR, Section 1532.1 (8 CCR 1532.1) and

Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 35001 et. seq. the bulk paint chip sample or XRF direct read instrument results were interpreted as follows:

1. Lead-based paints (LBP) and Lead-based Materials (LBM) are present when bulk samples revealed a lead concentration of ≥0.5 wt%, ≥5,000 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) or parts per million (ppm), or ≥1.0 milligrams per centimeter squared (mg/cm²) via XRF direct read instrument sampling.

2. Positive results (lead detected) were determined when bulk samples revealed a lead concentration of

<0.5 wt%, <5,000 mg/kg or ppm down to the analytical detection limit of the analysis, or <1.0 milligrams per centimeter squared (mg/cm²) via XRF direct read instrument sampling down to the detection limit of the device.

3. “No lead detected” was determined when bulk paint chip samples did not reveal a lead concentration above the analytical detection limit of the laboratory or direct read instrument sampling device.

Please refer to the Conclusions/Recommendations section below for regulatory clarifications regarding lead in paints.

The bulk sample results or XRF direct read instrument results for this survey indicated that the following building components and respective surface coatings had lead concentrations defining them as LBP, in accordance with Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 35001 et. seq.:

4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

4.1 Asbestos

The results of the survey indicate that asbestos-containing materials are present in the path of demolition at the Project Site.

Work performed during any activities that disturb the asbestos-containing materials identified in this report must be done in compliance with the most recent edition of all applicable federal, state, and local regulations, standards, and codes governing abatement, transport, and disposal of asbestos-containing materials. These include, but are not limited to, the following:

CCR, Title 8, Chapter 3.2, Subchapter 2, Article 2.5 - Registration Asbestos-Related Work

Sections 341.6 through 341.14

CCR, Title 8, Section 1529 - Asbestos in the Construction Industry

BAAQMD Regulation 11, Hazardous Pollutants, Rule 2, Asbestos Demolition, Renovation and Manufacturing

NESHAP - 40 CFR Part 61, National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants

AHERA - 40 CFR Part 763 - Subpart E, Asbestos Containing Materials in Schools

Materials encountered in the building that are not part of this report must be properly sampled for the content of asbestos or assumed to be asbestos containing prior to any disturbance.

- 8 -

Prior to activities which will disturb identified or assumed asbestos, a Cal/OSHA registered and

California licensed asbestos contractor must be utilized for abatement of asbestos that will be impacted.

Vista recommends that all abatement operations be conducted under the direction of a California Certified

Asbestos Consultant.

Should the removal of identified regulated asbestos-containing materials (RACM) involve at least 100 square feet or 100 linear feet per project site, per year, then notification to the BAAQMD and Cal/OSHA must be accomplished prior to the initiation of such activities.

4.2 Lead

The results of the survey indicate that lead-based and containing paints, and lead-based materials are present in the path of demolition at the Project Site.

At present there is no state or federal regulation requiring mandatory lead removal or abatement prior to disturbance of building materials with identified lead paint or coatings. However, there are applicable

Cal/OSHA worker protection and training requirements, Cal/EPA waste disposal requirements, CDPH requirements for public and residential buildings, and SB 460 lead hazard regulations that apply to lead-related construction activities, abatement activities and their associated wastes. The following is a brief discussion and summary of applicable regulatory requirements:

♦ Cal/OSHA: Title 8, California Code of Regulation (CCR), Section 1532.1 (8 CCR 1532.1) governs occupational exposure to lead. This regulation requires that prior to initiation of certain activities, referred to as “trigger tasks”, workers must be trained, medically evaluated, and properly fitted with respiratory protection, and protective clothing until statistically reliable personal eight-hour time weighted average

(TWA) results indicate lead exposure levels below the Personal Exposure Limit (PEL) for each unique task which disturbs lead-based and lead-containing coatings. This process is known as a Negative

Exposure Assessment or NEA.

If the result of the exposure assessment is above the Action Level (AL) additional monitoring is required and if the result is above the PEL additional exposure monitoring, worker protection (including respirator protection and PPE), training and medical requirements apply. However even where the NEA criteria is met, certain hazard communication training and work practice controls still apply where lead is disturbed.

“Trigger tasks” are tasks that are assumed to exceed the PEL pending an exposure assessment and they encompass the majority of construction activities that disturb surface coatings. Examples of “trigger” tasks range from manual paint scraping as a lower expected exposure up to hot work and abrasive blasting as the highest expected exposures, and include any non-listed task that the employer determines may potentially expose employees to lead levels above the AL.

“OSHA does not consider any method that relies solely on the analysis of bulk materials or surface content of lead (or other toxic material) to be acceptable for safely predicting employee exposure to airborne contaminates. Without air monitoring results or without the benefit of historical or objective data (including air sampling which clearly demonstrates that the employee can not be exposed above the action level during any process, operation, or activity) the analysis of bulk or surface samples can not be used to determine employee exposure.”- OSHA Standard Interpretation May 8, 2000.

OSHA states that these rules apply to “any detectable concentration of lead” without a specified detection level. Due to the Consumer Product Safety Commission currently allowing paint to contain up to 90 parts per million (ppm) or 0.009 wt% of lead, the variation of lead content due to aging and weathering, and the variation of detection limits associated with analysis of bulk materials, such as paint chips and surface content analysis via XRF, it is recommended that all painted or coated surfaces be treated as potentially containing lead. Positive analytical results by either method can be used to indicate that detectable lead is present but negative results cannot be interpreted as conclusively demonstrating the absence of lead.

Analytical data from analysis of bulk materials or surface content of lead can be helpful in evaluation of lead-related environmental risks in general but cannot be used to calculate worker exposures and are not a substitute for employee exposure monitoring. As a result of the above, any employee that works around potential lead-based or lead-containing coatings must have HAZCOM training and personal exposure air monitoring is additionally required for employees that disturb such coatings. Significant additional certification, notification, and work practices are required for materials found to be lead-based.

Any welding, cutting or heating of metal surfaces containing surface coatings should be conducted…
