About this file

This is an Asbestos Inspection Report prepared by Skelly and Loy, Inc. for the City of Pittsburgh Department of Public Works, documenting the results of an asbestos-containing material (ACM) survey conducted at the Division 1 facility located at 300 Kilbuck Street, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on July 5, 2018. The inspection was performed by Sean R. James, a licensed Pennsylvania Asbestos Inspector (License #043064), and involved the systematic identification and sampling of suspect asbestos-containing materials throughout the building. A total of 28 bulk samples were collected from 16 homogeneous areas and analyzed using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) with dispersion staining at Batta Environmental Associates in Newark, Delaware. The inspection identified three materials containing asbestos: Cementitious Wallboard in Room 101 (4,440 square feet at 25% Chrysotile), Roof Tar on the roof (6,500 square feet at 10% Chrysotile), and Ceiling Board in Room 101 (6,500 square feet at 20% Chrysotile). The remaining 13 homogeneous areas tested negative for asbestos.

This report serves as the technical foundation for the related Division 1 Asbestos Abatement contract opportunity issued by the City of Pittsburgh Office of Management and Budget on behalf of the Department of Public Works Bureau of Facilities. The identified asbestos-containing materials require professional abatement services from qualified vendors to address the approximately 17,440 square feet of friable and non-friable ACM within the facility. The inspection was completed in July 2018, establishing the baseline conditions and quantities necessary for potential remediation bidding and project planning.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The City of Pittsburgh retained Skelly and Loy, Inc. to conduct a building inspection of

Public Works 1st Division – B013 for asbestos-containing material (ACM) at 300 Kilbuck Street, Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. This report represents the results of the building inspection conducted on July 5, 2018.

2.0 SAMPLING METHODOLOGY

The July 5th, 2018 inspection was conducted by Mr. Sean James, licensed PA Inspector

(#043064). Suspect ACM was classified into homogeneous areas (HAs), and bulk samples of each HA were collected based on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) random sampling protocol.

Appropriate precautions were taken when sampling friable materials. The sampling areas were first wetted with amended water and a small portion was then removed using a razor knife. All bulk samples were sealed in plastic vials and were logged with an appropriate chain of custody (COC). The bulk samples were shipped to Batta Environmental Associates, located in

Newark, Delaware, for analysis using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) with dispersion staining, as specified by the EPA. PLM Point Counting was also utilized.

3.0 LABORATORY ANALYSIS

The analytical results indicated that the following materials are asbestos containing:

Cementitious Wallboard (HA 09) Roof Tar (HA 10) Ceiling Board (HA 11)

Please refer to the Asbestos Bulk Sampling Form for specific locations for suspect asbestos containing material (ACM) sampled.
