National Park Service Supplemental Asbestos Bulk Sampling Sagamore Hill National Historic Site October 2, 2020 Visitor Center EHI Project #: 1424-8932A

1.0 Introduction

Environmental Health Investigations, Inc. (EHI, inc.) collected bulk samples for asbestos analysis prior to the demolition of the Visitors Center of the Sagamore Hill National Historic site.

An initial inspection report conducted by Professional Building Inspectors dated December 12, 2019, did not include these items.

Sampling was conducted on October 2, 20202 by Mr. Evan Abramo of EHI.

2.0 Observations

Materials identified as suspect included batt insulation and carpet.

3.0 Sampling Methods

Asbestos bulk samples obtained through the physical extraction of a small cross section of the suspect materials using hand tools. These extracted samples were placed and sealed inside a plastic sampling bag possessing a zip lock top. Each sample was then assigned an individual identification number, e.g., SHA-100220-1A.

These samples were submitted to a third party laboratory for analysis. The laboratory that conducted the sample analyses was AmeriSci Laboratories Inc. in New York, NY. All samples were analyzed using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM).

4.0 Bulk Sample Results

The results for all PLM area bulk samples collected are summarized below.

4.0 Discussion

By definition an asbestos-containing material is a material that contains more than one percent (1%) asbestos. As shown in the summary table above as well as the laboratory analytical report in Appendix A, the results of the sample analysis indicate that all the sampled materials
