About this file
This is an Asbestos and Regulated Materials Inspection Report prepared by Terracon Consultants, Inc. for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) regarding the Treatment Building at 1405 Gilmore Avenue in Winona, Minnesota. The inspection was conducted on August 2, 2024, to identify asbestos-containing materials (ACM) and regulated materials prior to planned demolition activities. The inspection covered a 340-square-foot storage shed constructed in the 1990s, featuring wood siding, drywall interior, and asphalt shingle roofing. The report includes detailed sampling results, material assessments, and recommendations for handling materials during demolition.
The inspection found no asbestos-containing materials in any of the nine bulk samples collected, which were separated into fifteen individual layers for analysis. The report identified several regulated materials requiring special handling before demolition, including light ballasts potentially containing PCBs, an HID lamp, control switches, a control panel, and multiple electric motors. All regulated materials must be removed two days prior to demolition in accordance with Minnesota Rules 7035.0805 Subpart 5. The report includes detailed inventories, laboratory results, photographs, and certifications to document the inspection findings.

2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Terracon understands the Inspection was requested in support of the planned demolition activities which require management, documentation, and communication of various building materials, wastes and/or chemicals present within the Building on the Property. The project objective is based upon information required to communicate for compliance with the following summarized requirements:
▪ The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulation 40 CFR 61, Subpart M, National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), prohibits the release of asbestos fibers to the atmosphere during renovation or demolition activities. The asbestos NESHAP requires that potentially regulated ACM (RACM) be identified, classified, and quantified prior to planned disturbances or demolition activities.
▪ The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the Toxic Substances Control
Act (TSCA) impact some construction and demolition projects with respect to hazardous waste (i.e., solvent/thinner, fuel, stains, unused paint, oil/lubricants, compressed gas cylinders, and unpunctured aerosol cans) and universal waste (i.e. fluorescent lights, high intensity discharge lamps, mercury-containing thermostats, batteries, pesticides).
Materials referenced here are generally referred to as “Regulated Materials” th roughout the Inspection Report. Additionally, Minnesota Rules 7035.0805 Subpart 5, regarding renovation and demolition projects, identifies items and materials which will require special handling and removal prior to renovation/demolition activities.
▪ The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1926.1101 Subpart
Z, Asbestos; regulates asbestos exposure during renovation/demolition activities and requires building and facility owners to determine the presence, location and quantity of
Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) and/or Presumed ACM (PACM) prior to renovation/demolition activities.

3.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES
3.1 Asbestos Inspection
The Inspection was conducted by State of Minnesota certified asbestos inspector Eric J. Donner in general accordance with the sample collection protocols established in EPA regulation 40 CFR 763, the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA). A summary of Inspection activities is provided below.
3.1.1 Visual Assessment
Inspection activities were initiated with visual observation of the interior and exterior of the
Building to identify accessible homogeneous areas of suspect ACM. A homogeneous area (HA) consists of building materials that appear similar throughout in terms of color and texture with consideration given to the date of application.
3.1.2 Physical Assessment
A physical assessment of each homogeneous area of suspect ACM was conducted to assess the friability and condition of the materials. A friable material is defined by the EPA as a material that when dry, may be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure, including previously non-friable material when the material becomes damaged to the extent that when dry it may be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. Friability was assessed by physically touching suspect materials. The materials were classified into the three following condition categories:
August 22, 2024 ■ Terracon Project No. 41997044
Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials 4
▪ Not Damaged condition (ND); material with less than or equal to one percent damage or deterioration for the subject surface.
▪ Damaged condition (D); materials which greater than one percent although less than ten percent distributed damage or less than twenty five percent localized damage. Damage is determined when deteriorated or sustained physical injury such that the internal structure (cohesion) of the material is inadequate or, if applicable, which has delaminated such that its bond to the substrate (adhesion) is inadequate or which for any other reason lacks fiber cohesion or adhesion qualities. Such damage or deterioration may be illustrated by the separation of ACM into layers; separation of ACM from the substrate; flaking, blistering, or crumbling of the ACM surface; water damage;
significant or repeated water stains, scrapes, gouges, mars or other signs of physical injury on the ACM; or damage to jacketing or coatings; and
▪ Significantly Damaged condition (SD); materials where damage impacts at least ten percent of a localized subject surface area or if the damage is evenly distributed representing an area of at least twenty-five percent of the subject surface area.
3.1.3 Sample Collection
Based on results of the visual observation, bulk samples of suspect ACM were collected in general accordance with AHERA sampling protocols. Random samples of suspect materials were collected in each HA. Bulk samples were collected using wet methods as applicable to reduce the potential for fiber release. Samples were placed in sealable containers and labeled with unique sample numbers using an indelible marker. The selection of sample locations and frequency of sampling were based on Terracon’s observations and the assumption that like materials in the same area are homogeneous in content.
Terracon collected nine (9) bulk samples of suspect ACM from the Property that were separated by the analytical laboratory into fifteen (15) individual layers for analysis.
3.1.4 Sample Analysis
Bulk samples were submitted under chain of custody to an analytical laboratory accredited by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) under the National Voluntary Laboratory
Accreditation Program (NVLAP), for analysis by polarized light microscopy per EPA methodology
EPA/600/R-93/116.
The percentage of asbestos, where applicable, was determined by microscopic visual estimation or point counting. The MDH, OSHA and EPA define ACM as a material which contains greater than one percent asbestos by qualitative or quantitative analysis techniques. The EPA NESHAP requires quantitative analysis, commonly referred to as a “point count”, for all qualitative analysis results when asbestos is detected in concentrations less than one to ten percent. However, under common practice, qualitative results greater than three and less than ten percent are often accepted to be ACM.

3.2 Regulated Waste Items and Materials Inventory
During the Inspection, Terracon generated an inventory of regulated waste items associated with the Building. This inventory was intended to comply with EPA waste management regulations regarding the disposal of regulated waste (listed wastes, characteristic wastes, universal wastes and mixed wastes) including generators, transporters and storage of wastes present on construction/demolition sites.
The inventory documents the presence of items and materials listed under Subpart 5 of Minnesota
Rules 7035.0805 Renovation and Demolition, which is consistent with requirements of the EPA waste management regulations. These items and materials require special handling and may not remain in a building for demolition. They must be removed two days prior to the start of demolition.
Please note: this Inspection Report is not intended to inventory or characterize other construction materials or existing debris, such as, concrete, wood, metal, glass, furniture, and paper or other mixed municipal waste which may influence handling and disposal landfill requirements during renovation and/or demolition work, including potential beneficial reuse considerations.
4.0 REGULATORY REVIEW
4.1 Asbestos
The following are regulations impacting the methods and findings of this Inspection. It is not a comprehensive list of all asbestos regulations.
4.1.1 Federal Asbestos Regulations
The asbestos portion of NESHAP (40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M) regulates asbestos fiber emissions and asbestos waste disposal practices. The asbestos NESHAP regulation also requires the identification and classification of existing ACM according to friability prior to demolition or renovation activity. Friable ACM is a material containing more than 1% asbestos that, when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. All friable ACM is considered regulated asbestos-containing material (RACM).
The asbestos NESHAP regulation classifies ACM as either RACM, Category I non -friable ACM or
Category II non-friable ACM. RACM includes all friable ACM, along with Category I and Category II non-friable ACM that has become friable, will be or has been subjected to sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading, or ACM that has a high probability of becoming or has become crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder in the course of renovation or demolition activity. Category I non-friable ACM are exclusively asbestos-containing packings, gaskets, resilient floor coverings, resilient floor covering mastics and asphalt roofing products that contain more than 1% asbestos.
Category II non-friable ACMs are all non-friable ACMs that are not Category I non-friable ACM.
August 22, 2024 ■ Terracon Project No. 41997044
Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials 6
In their interpretation of layered drywall systems (joint compound, tape, wall board substrates), the EPA has ruled that unless the entire wall system contains more than 1% friable or potentially friable ACM (verified by Point Count analysis), then the total wall system is not considered RACM and is not subject to NESHAP regulations. However, OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101 requires that workers performing construction-related activities (including demolition) be protected from asbestos fibers more than the permissible exposure limit of 0.1 fibers/cc air, regardless of the source of the asbestos fibers.
4.1.2 State and County Asbestos Regulations
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) enforces the Asbestos NESHAP rules as adopted by reference by 7011.9920. The owner or operator must provide MPCA with written notification at least 10 working days prior to the commencement of asbestos abatement activities that will disturb RACM in amounts greater than or equal to 160 square feet, 260 linear feet or 35 cubic feet. The MPCA Renovation and Demolition rule (Minn. 7035.0805), Subpart 5, also references
7011.9920, and therefore the Asbestos NESHAP rules.
The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) Asbestos Abatement Rules (AAR) 4620.3000 -3724 regulate the enclosure, removal, or encapsulation of asbestos-containing material in a quantity that meets or exceeds 260 linear feet of friable asbestos-containing material on pipes, 160 square feet of friable asbestos-containing material on other facility components, or, if linear feet or square feet cannot be measured, 35 cubic feet. The AAR requires asbestos -related work is performed by licensed abatement contractors using certified workers. The abatement contractor must submit a notification to MDH at least 5 calendar days prior to the beginning of a project
(may be submitted jointly with notice to MPCA). Work practices, air monitoring requirements, and clearance criteria are specified.
The Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry adopts the OSHA Asbestos standard at 29 CFR
1910.1001 and 1926.1101 by reference at Minnesota Administrative Rule 5205.0660. The OSHA standards 29 CFR 1910.1001 and 29 CFR 1926.1101 regulate employee exposure to asbestos. The
OSHA standards require that employee exposure to airborne asbestos fibers be maintained at or below 0.1 fibers per cubic centimeter of air (0.1 f/cc) as an eight-hour time weighted average
(TWA), and not exceed 1.0 fibers per cubic centimeter of air (1.0 f/cc) over a 30-minute time period known as an excursion limit (EL). The TWA and EL are known as OSHA’s permissible exposure limits (PELs). The OSHA standard classifies construction and maintenance activities which could disturb ACM and specifies work practices and precautions which employers must follow when engaging in each class of regulated work. Building owners are required to maintain buildings and equipment in a safe operating condition, including the repair, removal, encapsulation, or enclosure of damaged ACMs.
4.2 Regulated Materials
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) states that the generator of hazardous waste is required to follow certain procedures when generating, storing, transporting, and/or disposing of the waste generated. Wastes are defined as hazardous by EPA if they are specifically
August 22, 2024 ■ Terracon Project No. 41997044
Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials 7 named on one of four lists of hazardous wastes (listed wastes) or if they exhibit one of four characteristics (characteristic wastes), including ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, or toxicity.
The EPA has published waste management regulations regarding the disposal of hazardous waste
(listed wastes, characteristic wastes, universal wastes and mixed wastes) including generators, transporters and storage of wastes present on construction/demoliti on sites as follows:
▪ Disposal of batteries, mercury-containing fluorescent light tubes, and other mercury-containing equipment is regulated under EPA 40 CFR Part 273 Standards for Universal
Waste Management.
▪ Disposal of PCB-containing fluorescent light ballasts, caulks, transformers, and oils is regulated under EPA 40 CFR part 761 Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) Manufacturing, Processing, Distribution in Commerce, and Use Prohibitions.
▪ Disposal of mercury from other sources is regulated under EPA hazardous waste regulations 40 CFR 260-262.
The MPCA Renovation and Demolition rule (Minn. 7035.0805), Subpart 5, lists items and materials that must be removed from a building prior to renovation or demolition, including household hazardous waste, industrial solid waste or hazardous waste, waste tires, major appliances, items that contain elemental mercury, items that might contain polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), items that contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), oils, lead-containing items, electronic products containing a cathode ray tube, electronic products containing a circuit board, asbestos that would be friable under demolition conditions, material trapped in sumps and traps, and radioactive wastes. These items and materials must be managed or removed from the facility two days prior to the start date of demolition, as submitted on the MPCA notification.
In addition, under Subpart 8, if the owner, person authorizing renovation or demolition, or person conducting the renovation or demolition knows or has reason to know that portions of the structure may be contaminated by hazardous substances or petroleum as defined in Minnesota
Statutes, section 115C.02, subdivision 10, based on past uses of the structure, such as a medical building, laboratory, or manufacturing facility, that person shall, prior to the commencement of renovation or demolition, obtain appropriate samples and receive results from laboratory analysis as necessary to ensure the proper management and disposal of contaminated structural elements and any resulting debris generated.

Refer to Table I in Appendix B for additional information regarding the locations and quantities of suspect ACMs assessed. Refer to Appendix C for the laboratory analytical report. Refer to
Appendix D for photographs of the sampled materials
5.1.2 Asbestos-Containing Material Classifications
As discussed in Section 4.1 ACMs, if identified during the Inspection, were classified as RACM
(“friable”), Category I non-friable, or Category II non-friable ACM. These categories are shown on
Table I in Appendix B for each applicable material. The classifications indicated are based on the material condition at the time of the Inspection. Material condition can be subject to change due to factors such as mechanical damage (impacts, grinding, sanding, crushing, etc.), moisture damage, weathering (sun) damage, etc., which may affect material classification.
5.1.3 Asbestos Management Recommendations
Asbestos was not detected in samples of suspect materials sampled during the Inspection. Refer to Table I in Appendix B for information regarding the locations and quantities of suspect ACMs assessed.
August 22, 2024 ■ Terracon Project No. 41997044
Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials 9
If previously inaccessible suspected ACM is discovered during renovation/demolition activities, disturbance work should immediately stop, until representative samples can be collected by a licensed asbestos building inspector and laboratory results are ava ilable to render a determination regarding asbestos content within the material discovered. Supplemental inspection may be required by the EPA/MPCA for inaccessible areas or locations outside of the Inspection Area for inspection and sampling, as identified in Section 6.0 in this Inspection Report.
This report is not a bidding document. Contractors or consultants reviewing this report must draw their own conclusions regarding further investigation or remediation deemed necessary. For renovation or demolition projects Terracon recommends an MDH-accredited asbestos Project
Designer be retained to prepare a project specific specification for the management and/or abatement of ACM identified in this Inspection Report, in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. Additionally, the disposition of non-friable ACMs should be assessed by a Project
Designer based on renovation or demolition plans, including specific considerations of potential for friability during renovation, demolition, and abatement, as well as disposal.
5.2 Hazardous / Special / Universal Waste Inspection
Items and materials listed under Subpart 5 of Minnesota Rules 7035.0805 Renovation and
Demolition require special handling and may not remain in a building for selective or entire building demolition. They must be removed two days prior to the start of demolition. It should be noted that during the hazardous materials survey the building tenant indicated that he intends to properly dispose of all hazardous materials, including built in appliances (heating units, boilers, air compressors, etc.) prior to vacating the building. Terracon inventoried these items and materials to assist in remediation planning and budgeting. Refer to Table II in Appendix B for additional information regarding the location and quantity of these items. The following sections list categories of common regulated materials found in buildings, and general management and disposal considerations.
5.2.1 Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) Containing Oils
Terracon identified light ballasts, potentially containing PCB-containing oils, in fluorescent, neon, or HID light fixtures. Prior to the start of renovation/demolition activities, all light fixtures with ballasts that will require removal will need to be examined and those not marked No PCBs must be placed in a properly labeled metal drum for management as PCB containing waste and will need to be disposed of in accordance with state and federal regulations. The contractor taking possession of any known or suspected PCB containing items for disposal must have a valid EPA
Identification Number for Regulated Waste Activity.
5.2.2 Metal-Containing Items
Terracon identified an HID lamp, control switches, a control panel, and other suspect metal-containing items. These items are inventoried in Table II in Appendix B.
Prior to the start of demolition/renovation activities, HID lamps are required to be removed undamaged and stored in an undamaged condition until they are reused or recycled in accordance
August 22, 2024 ■ Terracon Project No. 41997044
Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials 10 with state and federal regulations. Devices that contain mercury switches and circuit boards are required to be removed and disposed of in accordance with state and federal regulations.
5.2.3 Miscellaneous Regulated Waste Materials
Terracon identified multiple electric motors in the building during the Inspection that require special disposal. These items are inventoried in Table II in Appendix B. These materials are not accepted at demolition debris landfills and so require special disposal or recycling. Terracon inventoried items and materials listed under Subpart 5 of Minnesota Rules 7035.0805 Renovation and Demolition. These items and materials must be removed undamaged and stored in an undamaged condition until they are reused or recycled or disposed of in acc ordance with state and federal regulations.
5.3 Beneficial Reuse
This report does not constitute acceptance for beneficial reuse of building materials. Beneficial reuse (recycling) of building materials during demolition may require prior removal of affixed
ACM, lead-based paint, PCB-containing materials (caulks), or stained (contaminated) concrete areas. Contact your Terracon project designers for guidance in regulatory compliance for beneficial reuse applications.
5.4 Additional Services
Terracon personnel accredited in asbestos abatement project design, management planning, inspection, and air monitoring, as well as lead remediation are available to assist with project design and risk assessment. We can help manage projects from start to finish, including development of project concepts, budgets, specifications, contractor bidding, contract management, project oversight and monitoring.
6.0 GENERAL REPORTING LIMITATIONS
The Inspection was conducted utilizing limited destructive sampling techniques. Therefore, efforts were made to determine if multiple layers of materials were present (e.g., flooring), although limited to the extent of allowable access points with hand tools without affecting security, fire and life safety, slips, trips and/or fall hazards including unacceptable aesthetic or functional damage to building surfaces and materials, as per the judgment of the inspector at the time of the
Inspection. Therefore, suspect ACM may be present in concealed spaces, cavities, and plenums of the Building that were not inspected during the Inspection. Additional inspection by an accredited asbestos inspector is required by EPA prior to demolition or renovation that would impact such materials.
The following general areas (not exclusive) could be concealing additional identified ACM or suspect materials.
▪ below grade materials (piping, debris and/or conduit)

EMSL maintains liability limited to cost of analysis. Interpretation and use of test results are the responsibility of the client. This report relates only to the samples reported above, and may not be reproduced, except in full, without written approval by EMSL. EMSL bears no responsibility for sample collection activities or analytical method limitations. The report reflects the samples as received.
Results are generated from the field sampling data (sampling volumes and areas, locations, etc.) provided by the client on the Chain of Custody. Samples are within quality control criteria and met method specifications unless otherwise noted. The above analyses were performed in general compliance with Appendix E to Subpart E of 40 CFR (previously EPA 600/M4-82-020 “Interim Method”) but augmented with procedures outlined in the 1993 (”final”) version of the method. This report must not be used by the client to claim product certification, approval, or endorsement by NVLAP, NIST or any agency of the federal government. Non-friable organically bound materials present a problem matrix and therefore EMSL recommends gravimetric reduction prior to analysis. Unless requested by the client, building materials manufactured with multiple layers (i.e. linoleum, wallboard, etc.) are reported as a single sample. Estimation of uncertainty is available on request.
Samples analyzed by EMSL Analytical, Inc. New Hope, MN NVLAP Lab Code 200019-0; Colorado AL-24478
