About this file

This is a Regulated Building Materials Survey Report for the West Roxbury Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC), Building 8 (Boiler Plant), dated October 9, 2019. The survey was conducted by Mabbett & Associates, Inc. to identify asbestos-containing materials (ACM) and lead-containing paint (LCP) in support of A/E Design Services for boiler replacement and controls upgrade work under VA Project No. 523A4-20-208.

The survey identified two ACM locations totaling 240 linear feet of pipe insulation and 30 linear feet of door caulking. Small diameter pipe insulation (40 LF) was identified as presumed asbestos-containing material (PACM), and stack insulation (200 LF) tested positive for 5% chrysotile and 25% amosite. Lead paint sampling revealed 11 of 11 paint chip samples exceeded reporting limits, with notable results including 6.31% lead on boiler room walls, 2.26% on boiler 3 pipes, 0.7% on tunnel pipe hanger, and 0.52% on concrete boiler base. The report recommends that all identified ACM must be abated and properly disposed of prior to disturbance by state-licensed contractors in accordance with federal, state, and local requirements. Lead-containing paint should be controlled, abated, or disposed of properly during construction activities, with worker exposure monitoring required per OSHA regulations 29 CFR 1926.62. The survey was limited to accessible areas, with inaccessible locations noted as requiring additional ACM surveys prior to any proposed renovations.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Mabbett and Associates, Inc. (Mabbett®) performed a survey for regulated building materials (RBM) as part of the A/E Design Services to Replace Boilers and Upgrade Controls at the West Roxbury Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) located in Providence, Rhode Island, VA Project No. 523A4-20-208. Site survey work was performed on September 4, 2019 by appropriately credentialed regulated building materials inspectors, and consisted of the following activities:

A review and evaluation of previous facility regulated building materials reports An Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) survey of suspect materials (Analysis by polarized light microscopy [PLM]) Limited Lead Containing Paint (LCP) sampling (Analysis by atomic absorption [AA])

2.0 ASBESTOS SURVEY

2.1 Sampling Methodology

Site inspection work was performed on September 4, 2019 Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Labor Standards (MA DLS) accredited asbestos inspector, Mr. Jason P. Sheehan (#AI-900685). In accordance with the scope of work, suspect ACM was sampled and collected in general conformance with 40 CFR Part 61 “National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)”, 40 CFR Part 763 “Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA)”, and all applicable Massachusetts regulations. The inspection was limited to areas that may be impacted by the boiler replacement project. Boilers and mechanical systems were operating at the time of the survey.

Destructive investigation of operating equipment was not conducted.

The collected bulk samples were submitted under standard chain of custody (COC) procedures to ProScience Analytical Services, Inc. (ProScience) of Woburn, MA. Sample analysis was conducted by PLM, in accordance with EPA Method 600/R-93/116, using stop positive methodology. ProScience is accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) and participates in the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP).

All bulk sample results from this inspection are summarized in Appendix A, Summary of ACM Building Inspection Results. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Massachusetts Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development (MA EOLWD) and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) defines ACM as any material that contains greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos. As such, the analytical laboratory identified bulk samples of suspected ACM as positive for asbestos when they met or exceeded the regulatory criteria of greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos. Laboratory reports and the chain of custodies are provided in Appendix B of this report.

3.0 LEAD CONTAINING PAINT SURVEY

Prior to the limited LCP sampling conducted on September 4, 2019, Mabbett reviewed previous lead screening survey information in the Mabbett Asbestos Containing Material and Lead Containing Paint Survey Report, dated May 28, 2010. The limited LCP survey included the collection of confirmatory paint chips from surfaces that may be impacted by the proposed work. Paint chip samples were submitted under standard COC procedures to ProScience of Woburn, MA. Analysis was conducted using AA EPA method SW846-7420/3051.

The results of the limited LCP sampling are summarized in Table 2, with laboratory reports provided in Appendix C.

The results from the previous Mabbett lead containing paint survey utilizing an X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) analyzer, are provided in Appendix D.

4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

4.1 Asbestos

Identified ACM must be abated and properly disposed of prior to disturbance by state licensed and properly trained contractors. All abatement must be performed in accordance with Federal, State and local requirements. Any suspect materials encountered during demolition or renovation activities that were not identified in this report as being non-ACM, should be assumed to be ACM unless sample results prove otherwise. Suspect ACM that may be present within the walls, above inaccessible hard ceilings, or in other inaccessible locations, should be assumed to contain asbestos if discovered during any demolition or renovation process or until otherwise verified.

4.2 Lead Containing Paint

The purpose of the limited LCP survey was to identify similar areas of LCP. During the on-site survey, representative samples of similar areas of interior and exterior building coatings were collected and analyzed for lead content. The regulations addressing LCP in non-residential buildings are focused on occupational exposures involved with paint-disturbing activities and related waste-disposal activities.

Occupational exposure to lead during construction is regulated by OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1926.62 “Lead in Construction,” as well as other applicable state and local regulations. These regulations involve air monitoring to determine worker exposure levels when disturbing paint containing measurable levels of lead. This LCP survey cannot determine a safe level of lead for the purpose of paint-disturbing activities. However, this report is intended to provide guidance as to the location of LCP so it can be controlled, abated or disposed of properly during this project’s construction related activities. Information gathered during this LCP survey should be used to determine where worker exposures to airborne lead may occur. Additionally, this information should also be used to assess the potential for exposure to workers, and for determining appropriate controls necessary to limit his or her health risks during this project.

A concentration of lead greater than or equal to 0.5 mg/Kg percent by weight or 1.0 mg/cm2 exceeds EPA and HUD residential standards is considered an indicator of risk. Representative samples of LCP waste to be generated during building renovation, or following demolition but prior to disposal, should be collected and analyzed using toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) in accordance with 40 CFR Part 261. Management and disposal of lead containing waste must be done in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal regulations.

OSHA regulations may require certain procedures for any paint that contains lead, even if it is below these levels. All LCP identified, regardless of the lead content, should either be sampled and analyzed by TCLP and then handled/disposed of accordingly, or segregated from other large-scale debris and then managed as hazardous waste in accordance with federal, state and local hazardous waste disposal regulations.

1.0 INTRODUCTION & EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Mabbett and Associates, Inc. (M&A), with Covino Environmental Associates, Inc. (Covino) and EnviroMed Services, Inc. (EnviroMed) as sub-contractors, performed surveys for suspect asbestos containing building materials (ACM) and screenings of suspect lead containing paint (LCP) surfaces utilizing an X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) analyzer. Surveys were performed of selected buildings at the VA Medical Center (VAMC) located at 1400 VFW Parkway, West Roxbury, MA, under Contract VA241-P-1653. A complete list of buildings surveyed is in Volume I of this report. Site survey work was performed during January and February, 2010, by appropriately credentialed personnel as required. Collected suspect ACM samples were submitted to a certified analytical laboratory for asbestos analysis by polarized light microscopy (PLM) using positive stop methodology and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) where indicated. When necessary, paint chip samples were collected and submitted to a certified analytical laboratory for lead content analysis using atomic absorption spectroscopy. The survey effort involved the collection of the following samples, resulting in the following conclusions:

• 61 bulk samples for suspect ACM were collected in this building.

• Based on laboratory analysis of suspect ACM, 4 of the collected samples and

1 previously collected sample contained asbestos greater than or equal to 1%.

• 51 XRF analyzer measurements of building surfaces were taken in this building.

• 17 of the XRF measurements revealed concentrations of lead that exceeded

0.1 mg/cm2.

In addition, photos of lead containing paint greater than 1.0 mg/cm2 and in an other than intact condition, when observed, were provided. Laboratory certificates of analysis and field data sheets for this building report are available in Volume III of the Comprehensive VAMC Lead and Asbestos Survey Report.

2.0 BUILDING DESCRIPTION

According to information provided by the VAMC Office of Facilities Management and observations made by the M&A team at the time of the survey, Building 8 was a single-story Boiler House built in 1943 with a renovation in 1989 and occupied approximately 5,594 square feet.

3.0 ASBESTOS SURVEY

3.1 Sampling Methodology

A visual screening inspection was conducted by state licensed asbestos inspectors throughout the building to identify locations of suspect ACM. Only areas that were accessible during the field work phase were inspected. Every effort was made during the initial field survey work to access areas as necessary to complete the survey. However, if any areas remained inaccessible to the survey team, they are indicated in Table 1 below.

NA – Not Applicable

Other general areas that were inaccessible or where the survey was limited to visual observation only are identified below:

• Within walls • Within fire doors

• Enclosed pipe/duct chases • Inside mechanical equipment/ductwork

• Above fixed drywall or plaster ceilings

ACM surveys should be performed prior to any proposed renovations or maintenance involving inaccessible areas.

Bulk samples were collected of suspect ACM in accordance with US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Asbestos Hazard and Emergency Response Act (AHERA) and VISN 1 approved M&A VISN 1 Survey Program Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). Roofing materials were not sampled unless otherwise indicated in order to maintain applicable warranties. Bulk suspect ACM sampling was conducted according to the following sampling plan:

(a) Surfacing material:

(1) At least three bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is 1,000 ft2 or less.

(2) At least five bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than 1,000 ft2 but less than or equal to 5,000 ft2.

(3) At least seven bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than 5,000 ft2.

(b) Thermal system insulation:

(1) At least three bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area of thermal system insulation.

(2) At least one bulk sample shall be collected from each homogeneous area of patched area of thermal system insulation.

(3) Sufficient samples shall be collected from elbows and fittings to determine if it contains

ACM.

(4) Bulk samples shall not be collected from any homogeneous area where the state licensed asbestos inspector determined that the thermal system insulation is fiberglass, foam glass, rubber, or other non-ACM.

(c) Miscellaneous material:

(1) At least one bulk sample shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is less than 100 ft2.

(2) At least three bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than 100 ft2.

3.2 Analytical Methodology

The collected bulk samples were submitted under chain of custody procedures to ProScience Analytical Services, Inc. (ProScience) of Woburn, MA for polarized light microscopy (PLM) analysis of bulk materials via EPA 600/R-93/116 Method. If applicable, sample results that revealed trace concentrations of asbestos by PLM were re-analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. ProScience is accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) and participates in the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP Lab Code 200090-0). Duplicate bulk samples were submitted to Covino. Covino is accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) and participates in the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP Lab Code 101781-0). A summary table containing the duplicate bulk sample results is provided in Volume I, Table 5. Copies of the laboratory accreditations are included in Volume III of the Comprehensive VAMC Lead and Asbestos Survey Report.

Bulk sample results are summarized in Table 5 – ACM Building Survey Results. The EPA, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Occupational Safety (DOS) defines any material that contains greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos as being an ACM. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) defines any material that contains equal to or greater than one percent (≥1%) asbestos as being an ACM. As such, the analytical laboratory identified bulk samples as positive for asbestos that met the regulatory criteria of equal to or greater than one percent (≥1%) asbestos.

4.0 LEAD SCREENING SURVEY

4.1 Screening Survey Methodology

M&A completed a Lead Containing Paint Risk Analysis in accordance with the SOP and determined that a LCP screening survey was warranted in this building. The LCP screening survey was performed by trained lead inspectors/screeners meeting the qualifications outlined in the SOP. The screening survey measured lead concentrations in accessible building surfaces by using a Niton XLp 303A XRF (serial number 18580 and 22552). The XRF instrument was calibrated at the frequency specified in the SOP.

4.2 Summary of Lead Screening Survey Findings

4.2.1 Data Tables

As specified by VISN 1, a description of XRF-screened painted interior and exterior building components containing lead at concentrations greater than 0.1 mg/cm2 have been included in Table 3 below:

5.0 LIMITATIONS

This inspection report is the result of a diligent search of the building for ACM and LCP. Only accessible areas were included in this survey. However comprehensive this inspection appears, it does not claim to have identified all of the ACM and LCP that could be present in the facility.

M&A’s survey was performed with limitations inherent to visual inspections. M&A has conducted this assessment with reasonable care and has performed this project within generally accepted industry standards. There can be no assurances, and M&A makes no assurances, that the information, research, and technology used to prepare this report may not change in the future, thus affecting the results provided.

6.0 CLOSING REMARKS

Prior to initiating plans for maintenance, renovation or demolition activities, the VAMC should review the asbestos and lead survey results to determine if any of these materials will be disturbed by proposed work activities.

6.1 Asbestos

The purpose of the ACM survey was to identify ACM in the building within the limitations of the survey for worker protection purposes and future renovation or demolition planning purposes. In regards to asbestos, any suspect material encountered during renovation/demolition that is not identified in this report as being non-ACM should be assumed to be ACM unless sample results prove otherwise. Suspect ACM that may be present within the walls, above inaccessible hard ceilings, or in other inaccessible locations, that was not inspected should be assumed to contain asbestos if discovered during any renovation process or until otherwise verified. If ACM must be disturbed, the ACM must be removed by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor and be performed in accordance with applicable regulations. If proposed work activities will not disturb ACM, continuous monitoring of ACM should be conducted throughout work activities to ensure the ACM remains in an intact condition. Additionally, prior to commencing work activities, contractors involved with the work activities should be made aware of the location of ACM, within the building in which they will be working. Additional information regarding asbestos management and the Operations & Maintenance (O&M) program is outlined in the VAMC campus wide Asbestos Management Plan available in Volume I of the Comprehensive VAMC Lead and Asbestos Survey Report.

The VAMC must submit a quarterly ACM liability report. At the time of the survey the following estimated quantities of ACM were identified and should be included in the liability report until removed from the building.

6.2 Lead Containing Paint

The purpose of the LCP screening survey was to identify patterns of LCP. For the purpose of this LCP screening survey, representative interior and exterior building components were tested. The regulations addressing LCP in non-residential building are focused on protecting workers who are involved with paint disturbing activities and related waste disposal activities.

Worker protection is regulated by OSHA regulations as well as applicable state regulations. These regulations involve air monitoring of workers to determine exposure levels when disturbing paint containing measurable lead. A lead based paint determination can not determine a safe level of lead, but is intended to provide guidance as to the locations of what are considered industry standards for lead in paint. VA employees and contractors may use this information to better determine exposures of workers to airborne lead by understanding the different concentrations of lead paint on representative components and surfaces. Worker exposure controls can then be implemented and air monitoring can then be performed during activities that disturb paint on representative surfaces.

A concentration of lead greater than or equal to 1.0 mg/cm2 exceeds HUD residential standards and is an indicator of risk. OSHA does not specify a safe concentration of LCP. However, for the purposes of this LCP screening survey the lead concentrations greater than 0.1 mg/cm2 have been utilized as a threshold established by VISN 1 for areas where possible worker exposures may occur.
