About this file
This is a lead paint screening report dated November 13, 2013 documenting the results of testing conducted at the Perry Point VA Medical Center campus in Maryland between September 30 and October 31, 2013. The screening was performed by Aerosol Monitoring & Analysis, Inc. under Contract No. GS-10F0386K to identify lead-containing materials within 50 buildings totaling 1,103,000 square feet, including facilities constructed between 1750-present with various renovation dates from 1968 onward.
The testing was conducted using an RMD LPA-1 x-ray fluorescence analyzer by six Maryland-certified lead inspectors/risk assessors. Components were considered to contain lead if readings exceeded 0.7 mg/cm2 per Maryland regulations. The report includes detailed XRF testing results showing numerous building components that tested positive for lead-containing materials, including metal railings, doors, windows, walls, pipes, and other architectural elements across multiple buildings. For Building 23H specifically, which relates to the current fire damage repair contract, the report documents lead-containing materials in components like vent covers, handrails, stair treads, and newel posts primarily in stairwell and dining room areas.

RE: United States Department of Veteran Affairs VISN 5 Contract No. GS-10F- 0386K Lead Paint Screening for the Veterans Affairs Perry Point Campus
Bldg: Perry Point Campus
AMA Project #: 13404
Mr. Deinert:
Between September 30 and October 31st, 2013 Aerosol Monitoring & Analysis, Inc. (AMA) representatives, Mr. Andrew Washington, Mr. Patrick Dincher, Mr.
Adam Truax, Mr. Rob Schoennagel, Mr. Kinte Thompson, and Mr. Ron Stallard conducted an onsite lead paint screening of the Perry Point VAMC campus facilities for the purpose of identifying lead containing materials within the buildings.

General Summary
AMA randomly tested surfaces for lead containing materials (LCM) throughout each above listed building at the Perry Point VAMC Campus.
Lead Inspector(s) – Andrew Washington (Maryland Risk Assessor 10057)
Adam Truax (Maryland Lead Inspector 14117) Robert Schoennagel (Maryland Lead Inspector 4179) Kinte Thompson (Maryland Lead Inspector 13795) Patrick Dincher (Maryland Lead Inspector 7164) Ronald Stallard (Maryland Lead Inspector 4357)
The LCM testing was performed with a Radiation Monitoring Device (RMD) LPA-1 model x-ray fluorescence analyzer (XRF), Serial #1954. The XRF contains a small radioactive source (Cobalt 57), which emits radiation when pressed against a surface. If the paint contains lead, the radiation will stimulate the lead atoms to re-emit x-rays, which are sensed by a detector in the unit. The XRF then converts these signals to a final reading in milligrams of lead per square centimeter of surface area tested (mg/cm2). The LPA-1 XRF is capable of achieving a ninety-five percent confidence interval in readings to a depth of 3/8 inch.
The XRF was calibrated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Prior to obtaining readings from suspect surfaces, three calibration readings were taken on a National Institute for Science and Technology (NIST) Calibration Test Block and recorded. The NIST Calibration Block contains a known concentration of lead (1.02 mg/cm2) and the XRF must indicate 1.02 mg/cm2 with a tolerance of + or - 0.3 mg/cm2 for the average of the three readings. If the average of three readings is within the established tolerance, the unit is working properly. Calibration checks were performed prior to and at the end of the investigation.
The LPA-1 XRF features two modes of operation when in use: Quick mode and Standard mode. When the Quick mode is engaged on the LPA-1, the unit seeks the shortest period of time to assure a positive, or a negative measurement with 95% confidence. As stated in the XRF Performance Characteristics Sheet (PCS) developed jointly by the U.S. EPA and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD); no substrate correction is needed. The Quick mode was used during the course of the investigation.
Many types of components tested were found to contain greater than (>) 0.7 mg/cm2 of surface area tested, which is the amount defined as a lead-containing material according to the COMAR, Title 26, Department of the Environment, Subtitle 16, Lead, Chapter 01. Table I at the end of the report lists components that were found to have lead concentrations of >0.7 mg/cm2 within each building.
Table II lists all XRF readings that were found to be LCM.
