Executive Summary

An asbestos and lead-based paint assessment was conducted on April 21, 2022, of Building 578 located at Joint

Base Charleston (Air Base) in North Charleston, South Carolina. The assessment included interior and exterior areas of the referenced structure. The purpose of the assessment was to identify the presence of asbestos containing materials (ACMs) and lead-based paint to support renovation and repair activities. The assessment also complies with federal, state, and local asbestos requirements regarding identification of ACMs that may be disturbed due to renovation or demolition.

Building 578 consists of a large aircraft maintenance dock and adjacent restrooms and mechanical areas, totaling

27,100 square feet in size. Finishes within the aircraft maintenance dock consist of painted concrete floors, metal paneled walls and open ceilings, and finishes in mechanical areas consist of unfinished concrete floors, metal, and concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls, and open ceilings. The adjacent common and restroom areas are finished with vinyl and ceramic floor coverings, CMU and drywall walls, and suspended ceilings with acoustical tiles. The exterior of the structure is constructed of metal, brick-veneer, and CMU. The structure was occupied at the time of assessment.

Asbestos Assessment

The suspect ACMs sampled and analyzed as part of the asbestos assessment of Building 578 consist of drywall and associated joint compound, mastics associated with heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) ducts, vinyl floor tile and associated mastic, mastic associated with rubber cove base, fire-stop caulk, fire door insulation, rope gasket material, mastics associated with mechanical piping, and expansion joint material. Of the representative materials sampled and analyzed as part of the assessment, no ACMs were identified.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control

(SCDHEC), and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) defines a material an ACM if an asbestos content greater than one percent (>1%) is detected in a representative sample.

If additional suspect ACMs not addressed in this report are discovered during the planned renovation and repair activities, bulk samples must be collected by a SCDHEC licensed inspector and analyzed for asbestos content prior to disturbance or disposal of the suspect material(s).

Lead-Based Paint Assessment

A lead-based paint assessment was performed concurrently with the asbestos assessment, of representative painted components associated with the referenced structure. The components were analyzed using direct measurement X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) technology using a Heuresis Pb200i (serial #1852). For the purpose of this assessment, painted surfaces with lead concentrations meeting the SCDHEC disposal limit (0.7 mg/cm2) are considered lead-based paint.

May 13, 2022 2

Of the representative suspect painted components finishes tested, the following exhibited lead concentrations meeting the SCDHEC disposal limit of 0.7 mg/cm2.

• Exterior parking bollards (brown paint on metal) – non-deteriorated condition.

The identified painted components were in non-deteriorated (intact) condition at the time of assessment. Low levels of lead were also detected which may be applicable to the standards of the OSHA 29 CFR 1926.62 (Lead in

Construction), dependent upon the tasks impacting those surfaces.

Prior to renovation activities, the identified building components exhibiting lead-based paint may have the surfaces stabilized and prepared to the extent suitable for the new replacement coatings/finishes, or those lead-based paint coatings may be subject to complete removal by means of a specifically manufactured and marketed product suitable for the chemical removal of lead-based paint. Component removal of the items containing lead-based paint requires disposal in a Class II or Class III landfill.

Accumulations of paint waste (sludge, chips, dust, or flakes) and lead contaminated products must be tested by the Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure (TCLP) to determine if the waste is classified as hazardous, which requires disposal in a Subtitle C (hazardous waste) landfill. Lead waste, at a minimum, must be disposed in a Class

II or III landfill.

Destructive actions to paint containing detectable levels of lead (e.g. component removal, demolition, sanding, grinding, burning, paint preparation, etc.) will require the contractor comply with the standards of the OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1926.62 (Lead in Construction), including but not limited to training, initial exposure monitoring, the use of personal protective equipment, and medical surveillance.

1.0 Background

S&ME, Inc. (S&ME) was contracted by ADC Engineering to perform an asbestos and lead-based paint assessment of Building 578 located at Joint Base Charleston (Air Base) in North Charleston, South Carolina. The assessment included interior and exterior areas of the referenced structure. The assessment was subsequently performed on

April 20, 2022, by Bill Seaborn and John McEathron, both with S&ME. The assessment was conducted to identify the presence of asbestos containing materials (ACMs) and lead-based paint to support planned renovation and repair activities. The assessment also complies with federal, state, and local asbestos requirements regarding identification of asbestos containing building materials that may be disturbed due to renovation or demolition.

The asbestos assessment was conducted to assess, sample, and identify ACMs in accordance with regulatory requirements. The identification of ACMs will aid in the prevention of occupational exposures and/or environmental releases of airborne asbestos. Identification of ACMs also complies with Title 40 Code of the

Federal Regulations, part 61, and State regulation 61-86.1 enforced by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC), along with Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations, part 1926 enforced by the

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The following sections describe the assessment procedures used, results of the suspect ACMs sampled and analyzed, and conclusions and recommendations related to ACMs.

The purpose of the lead-based paint assessment was to assess and identify lead-based paint coatings and lead containing materials associated with the subject structure. The identification of these materials will aid in the compliance of occupational exposure (OSHA) and/or environmental releases of airborne lead dust in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1926.62 (Lead in Construction) and provide information to determine proper disposal of lead-based paint coated components and debris in accordance with the SCDHEC and the Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

2.0 Site and Project Description

2.1 Purpose

The purpose of the assessment was to identify the presence of ACMs and lead-based paint prior to planned renovation and repair activities. The assessment included the interior and exterior of Building 578. An assessment strategy appropriate for this purpose was presented in our proposal and is described in this report. The report should be interpreted only with regard to the specific location and materials referenced.

2.2 Site Description

Building 578 consists of a large aircraft maintenance dock and adjacent restrooms and mechanical areas, totaling

27,100 square feet in size. Finishes within the aircraft maintenance dock consist of painted concrete floors, metal paneled walls and open ceilings, and finishes in mechanical areas consist of unfinished concrete floors, metal, and

May 13, 2022 4 concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls, and open ceilings. The adjacent common and restroom areas are finished with vinyl and ceramic floor coverings, CMU and drywall walls, and suspended ceilings with acoustical tiles. The exterior of the structure is constructed of metal, brick-veneer, and CMU. The structure was occupied at the time of assessment.

3.0 Assessment Procedures

3.1 Asbestos Containing Materials

The assessment was performed by observing and sampling suspect ACMs associated with the referenced structure. Diagrams exhibiting bulk sample locations and confirmed ACMs are provided in Appendix II of this report. The possibility exists that suspect materials were undetected in inaccessible areas. If additional suspect

ACMs not identified in this report are discovered during destructive activities, bulk samples must be collected by a

SCDHEC licensed inspector and analyzed for asbestos content prior to disturbance or disposal of the suspect materials.

The suspect ACMs were quantified and subject to a physical condition assessment. A sampling strategy was then developed to provide representative samples in accordance with the SCDHEC and EPA. Suspect ACMs observed were classified based on their condition (good, damaged, or significantly damaged) and potential for disturbance.

Bulk samples of suspect ACMs were collected by a SCDHEC licensed inspector. The bulk samples were then extracted from suspect ACMs and recorded on a chain of custody record and submitted to our in-house Polarized

Light Microscopy (PLM) laboratory. The samples were subsequently analyzed by PLM, and confirmation analysis was performed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) by EMSL Analytical, for non-friable organically bound materials reported negative by PLM. The laboratories are located in Charlotte, North Carolina and are accredited by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP), which is administered by the National

Institute of Standards and Technology.

Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM)

The suspect materials were analyzed by trained microscopists using PLM techniques coupled with dispersion staining in accordance with EPA Test Method Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter I (1-1-87 edition), Part

763, Subpart F-APPENDIX A. This method identifies asbestos mineral fibers based on six optical characteristics:

morphology, birefringence, refractive index, extinction angle, sign of elongation and dispersion staining colors.

The laboratory analysis reports the specific type of asbestos identified (there are six asbestos minerals) and the percentage of asbestos present.

Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)

One representative sample from each suspect non-friable organically bound homogeneous material, which exhibited negative results via PLM analysis, was analyzed by trained microscopists via TEM, in accordance with

ASTM E2356 per SCDHEC requirements.

3.2 Lead-Based Paint

Lead-based paint testing was performed on representative painted components associated with the referenced structure. The components were analyzed with a Heuresis Pb200i (serial #1852). The suspect painted finishes were selected based on the color of the topcoat and the underlying paint layers and/or the substrate on which it was applied. The possibility exists that lead-based paint finishes are present in those inaccessible areas. The

SCDHEC defines a lead-based paint as any paint containing lead at concentrations equaling 0.7 mg/cm2 or greater by XRF testing. For the purpose of the assessment, paint containing 0.7 mg/cm2 or greater was considered lead-based paint due to the planned renovation activities.

The OSHA does not recognize a threshold level of lead for definition purposes, only the airborne concentration of lead a worker is exposed. The current OSHA regulations recognize an airborne action level of 30 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m3) during an eight-hour day and a permissible exposure limit of 50 µg/m3.

4.0 Findings and Results

4.1 Asbestos

The suspect ACMs sampled and analyzed as part of the asbestos assessment of Building 2190 include drywall and associated joint compound, mastics associated with heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) ducts, vinyl floor tile and associated mastic, mastic associated with rubber cove base, fire-stop caulk, fire door insulation, rope gasket material, mastics associated with mechanical piping, and expansion joint material. Of the representative materials sampled and analyzed as part of the assessment, no ACMs were identified

The EPA, SCDHEC and OSHA defines a material an ACM if an asbestos content greater than one percent (>1%) is detected in a representative sample.

A summary of asbestos results is provided in Appendix I, and exhibits the sample number, location, type of material tested, approximate quantity of the material sampled, condition of the material, and corresponding result for each sample. A diagram of bulk sample locations is provided in Appendix II, and a copy of the inspectors’

SCDHEC licenses are provided in Appendix III. The laboratory analyses and chain-of-custody records are provided in Appendix IV.

4.2 Lead-Based Paint

The assessment and testing performed on April 21, 2022, of the suspect painted components associated with the subject structure identified the presence lead-based paint in non-deteriorated (intact) condition. The following components exhibited lead concentrations meeting the SCDHEC limit of 0.7 mg/cm2 and are considered lead-based paint:

• Exterior parking bollards (brown paint on metal) – non-deteriorated condition.

May 13, 2022 6

Low levels of lead were also present in each area which may be applicable to the standards of 29 CFR 1926.62

(Lead in Construction) depending upon the tasks impacting those painted surfaces.

The summary of XRF readings is provided in Appendix V and should be reviewed in full.

5.0 Conclusions and Recommendations

The asbestos and lead-based paint assessment performed on April 21, 2022, of Building 578 located at Joint Base

Charleston (Air Base) in North Charleston, South Carolina, did not identify the presence of ACMs. Lead-based paint, applicable to the SCDHEC disposal standards, was identified. Low levels of lead were also identified which may be applicable to the standards of the OSHA regulations found in 29 CFR 1926.62 (Lead in Construction). This report should be provided to the contractor(s) to assist with compliance with applicable State and Federal regulations

5.1 Asbestos Recommendations

If suspect materials not addressed in this report will be disturbed by the planned renovation activities, bulk samples must be collected by a SCDHEC licensed inspector, prior to continuation of the work or disturbance to the material. This report should be provided to the contractor(s) to assist with compliance with applicable State and Federal regulations.

5.2 Lead-Based Paint Recommendations

Prior to renovation activities, the identified building components exhibiting lead-based paint may have the surfaces stabilized and prepared to the extent suitable for the new replacement coatings/finishes, or those lead-based paint coatings may be subject to complete removal by means of a specifically manufactured and marketed product suitable for the chemical removal of lead-based paint. Component removal of the items containing lead-based paint requires disposal in a Class II or Class III landfill.

Accumulations of paint waste (sludge, chips, dust, or flakes) and lead contaminated products must be tested by the Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure (TCLP) to determine if the waste is classified as hazardous, which requires disposal in a Subtitle C (hazardous waste) landfill. Lead waste, at a minimum, must be disposed in a Class

II or III landfill.

Destructive actions to paint containing detectable levels of lead (e.g. component removal, demolition, sanding, grinding, burning, paint preparation, etc.) will require the contractor comply with the standards of the OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1926.62 (Lead in Construction), including but not limited to training, initial exposure monitoring, the use of personal protective equipment, and medical surveillance.

Paint coatings may be present that contain low levels of lead that cannot be detected by X-ray fluorescence and may be applicable to OSHA regulations 29 CFR 1926.62. The quantities reported by XRF may be useful in

May 13, 2022 7 determining the relative risk associated with various demolition tasks, for example disturbances to paints with low lead levels may be less likely to result in airborne lead exposures in excess of the OSHA Action Level.

6.0 Assumptions and Limitations

This report is provided for the sole use of ADC Engineering. Use of this report by any other parties will be at such party’s sole risk, and S&ME disclaims liability for any such use or reliance by third parties. The results presented in this report are indicative of conditions only during the time of the sampling period and of the specific areas referenced. Under no circumstances is this report to be used as a bidding document, or as a project design or specification.

S&ME performed the services in accordance with generally accepted practices of reputable environmental consultants undertaking similar studies at the same time and in the same geographical area. S&ME has endeavored to meet this standard of care. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is intended or made with respect to this report or S&ME’s services. Users of this report should consider the scope and limitations related to these services when developing opinions as to risks associated with the site.

The findings of the asbestos assessment were based largely on visual observations within the amount of time available. The findings do not warrant that all asbestos-containing materials have been identified; suspect asbestos-containing materials may be present in areas not readily-accessible to observation. In addition, the actual locations and quantities of materials may vary from those herein. Apparent homogeneous sampling areas may vary in actual asbestos or lead content due to previous renovations, maintenance or related operations. The possibility exists that suspect materials were undetected in inaccessible or concealed areas such as under carpeting or multiple flooring layers, and inside pipe chases or wall voids. If additional suspect materials are discovered during the planned destructive activities, bulk samples must be sampled and analyzed by qualified entities.

The findings of the lead-based paint assessment were based largely on visual observations within the amount of time available, and the associated project areas. The findings do not warrant that all painted surfaces containing lead have been identified; different underlying painted surfaces which contain lead could exist under similar top layers. Also, apparent similarly painted surfaces may vary in actual lead content.
