About this file

This is a Lead Paint Survey Report for structural repairs at MCAS New River's SAS189A Pistol Range facility. The Walker Group Architecture, Inc., conducted the survey on February 4, 2026, to determine the presence of lead-based paint on building components prior to exterior baffle system replacement work. The survey was performed by Christopher B. Walker, a North Carolina Accredited Lead Inspector (#110239, expiring August 31, 2026), and samples were analyzed by EMSL Analytical, Inc. (AIHA ELLAP lab code 102564) using Flame AAS methodology in accordance with EPA 3050B/Modified/7000B standards and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.62 requirements.

The survey identified one lead-based paint location: red exterior wood coating on the 25-yard firing line gun rest framing, which tested at 0.0086% lead by weight (above the 0.01% detection limit and exceeding EPA's 0.5% threshold for lead-based paint classification). The structure comprises two wood and earth-filled berm walls, an overhead steel structure supporting an acoustical baffle system, a steel bullet trap with integrated metal roof, and walls combining baffle systems and insulation on metal framing. Recommendations require all demolition and renovation work disturbing lead-coated surfaces to comply with Federal, State, and Local regulations and be conducted by workers trained in OSHA lead-safe practices. Additional suspect materials discovered during work should be presumed lead-based and sampled by North Carolina licensed Lead Inspector personnel and tested by accredited laboratories before work proceeds.

Lead Paint Survey

SAS189A Pistol Range Repairs MCAS New River Project # 23-0060

Report Prepared By:

Christopher B. Walker

The Walker Group Architecture, Inc February 9th, 2026

WGA Project No. – 2506.RNGE

MCAS New River

Project Information

The Walker Group Architecture, Inc. was contracted by NRW Engineering to conduct a lead sampling survey for outdoor firing range SAS189A. The specified structure is slated for repairs to replace the exterior baffle system. The survey was conducted to determine if building components were coated with lead-based paint.

Scope of Services

A. The survey was performed on 02/04/2026 by Christopher B. Walker (NC Accredited Lead Inspector #110239 expires August 31st, 2026. Samples were collected from areas defined by the scope of work.

Findings

A. The Walker Group Architecture collected paint chip samples from each surface visibly coated with a different color of paint and delivered them to EMSL Analytical, Inc. (AIHA ELLAP lab code no. 102564) for analysis for lead content by Flame AAS (SW 846 3050B*/7420) in accordance with EPA 3050B/Modified/7000B. OSHA 29 CFR

1926.62 defines any detectable level of lead in paint a concern when renovations/demolitions will impact lead coated surfaces.

B. The detection limit is determined by weight of the sample, which is typically 0.01%.

See attached Lab Results for additional information.

Building Description and Findings

Structure SAS189A is a nonactive outdoor shooting range. The structure comprises of (2) side wood and earth filled berm walls and an overhead steel structure that supports an acoustical baffle system. There is steel bullet trap with an integrated metal roof system. The walls are a combination of baffle system, and insulation on metal framing.

Recommendations

A. Any demolition/renovation work in which lead coated surfaces are disturbed must be in compliance with all Federal, State, and Local regulations. All work should be conducted by workers trained in "lead safe practices" as outlined by

OSHA.

B. If additional suspect materials are discovered during demolition/renovation, they should be classified presumed to contain lead-based paint until sampling by a state of North Carolina licensed Lead Inspector personnel and analysis by an Accredited and state of North Carolina licensed laboratory can be performed.
