Brian Malchak demolition or renovation of the old feed mill located at 41 Elm Street, Cortland The objective of the survey was to identify ACM within the space or the entire building so that appropriate considerations can be made prior to demolition of the building or renovation of the said space.

New York State Department of Labor Industrial Code Rule 56 (12NYCRR, Part 56) requires that prior to advertising for bids or contracting for or commencing work on any demolition work on a building, that the owner or agent of such building shall cause a survey for ACM to be conducted, and that identified ACM be removed by a licensed contractor prior to initiation of demolition activities. This survey was performed in accordance with these requirements.

3.0 BACKGROUND

There are many factors that must be considered when determining the extent of potential health risks associated with the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) in buildings. The major concern is with the possibility of fiber release from the ACM and the subsequent inhalation of these fibers by building occupants.

12/05/2025 Page 5 of 36 SH-67M3E

Asbestos License #73261 P.O. Box 188 Pulaski, New York 13142 (315)527-8888 Asbestos is a known carcinogen found in many types of building materials, but its presence alone may not constitute a health hazard. Rather, a health hazard occurs when the asbestos fibers are in some way disturbed and become airborne. Asbestos fibers are most likely to be released into the air when the materials in which they are contained become loose, friable, or otherwise show signs of damage or deterioration by various causal agents.

Inhalation of these microscopic asbestos fibers has been medically proven to cause chronic disease such as asbestosis, mesothelioma and lung cancer. The severity of these diseases, along with the discovery of great amounts of asbestos in public and private buildings, has led government agencies to promulgate regulations aimed at reducing asbestos exposure. Maximum allowable exposure levels have been set for building occupants, and methods of compliance for removal and disposal of ACM have been instituted. Therefore, it is necessary to locate and identify all ACM within a building. Comprehensive data to this effect will allow for the implementation of a systematic asbestos abatement program.

4.0 METHODOLOGY

The bulk sampling procedure utilized by A2Z Environmental LLC. is designed to collect samples of materials suspected to contain asbestos. Each individual type of materials as delineated by color, texture, pattern and location will be referred to as a homogeneous sampling area. Each homogeneous area will be sampled and assessed independently of each other.

The procedure for collecting a bulk sample entails complete penetration and removal of all layers of the suspect material, while at the same time, minimizing damage and potential fiber release. The sampling procedure begins with complete wetting of the sampling area. A core section is then cut from the material and placed in a sealed, airtight sample container. The exposed area is then sealed with spray adhesive and patched with duct tape when in an occupied space. The area where the core sample was removed is then labeled with a sample number to facilitate future reference. The sampling tool is then wet wiped and decontaminated with a disposable towel.

Each labeled sample is then transported along with a chain of custody form to a certified laboratory for analysis. Laboratory analysis of friable samples (materials which are able to be crushed or reduced to powder by hand pressure) is performed using Polarized Light Microscopy with Dispersion Staining in accordance with the EPA Interim Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Insulation Samples (EPA - 600/M4-82-020).

Box 188 Pulaski, New York 13142 (315)527-8888 Non-friable organically bound samples (NOBs) such as floor tile and roofing undergo gravimetric reduction and are then analyzed using (PLM) polarized light microscopy. Samples that test positive for asbestos are reported as such. Samples which test negative for asbestos (less than 1 % asbestos by weight) must be further analyzed by (TEM) transmission electron microscopy.

The testing laboratory is approved under the NYS Department of Health - Environmental Laboratory Approval Program (ELAP) as well as the National Institute of Standards and Technology - National Voluntary Laboratory Approval Program (NVLAP).

were no records have have not, been reviewed as part of this effort.

See Table 5.1 (starting on page 5) for a complete list of samples collected. If any additional suspect materials are discovered prior to or during demolition activities, then the material must be assumed to be asbestos-containing or must undergo Laboratory analysis in accordance with 29 CFR 191 0.1 1 01 to prove it non-asbestos.

** SEE APPENDIX B FOR LOCATIONS OF ACM **

It must be noted that the quantities of ACM provided on table 5.1 are estimates of the actual materials present that were available for inspection and assessment. These figures themselves should not be used as the sole basis for asbestos abatement contractors' bids or cost estimates. They are meant merely as estimates to gauge the scope of the project.

The purpose of the inspection was to determine the extent of asbestos-containing materials associated with the above referenced property only. New York State Department of Labor Regulations, 12 NYCRR Part 56, requires removal of all asbestos-containing materials from a building or structure prior to demolition or renovation activities.

Details concerning ACM location and quantity, sample locations, laboratory analysis, and consultant credentials are included in this report.

6.0 Responsibility of owner or owner agent

The owner or owners agent is required to send a copy of this report to the Department of Labor prior to any Asbestos Abatement. The address that the report needs to be sent to depends on the county that the property is located. The addresses for the different Department of Labor District offices are listed on page 4 of this report.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Inconclusive - No Asbestos Detected PLM is not consistently reliable in detecting asbestos in floor coverings and other NOB materials. Currently, quantitative TEM must be used to determine if this material can be considered or treated as non-asbestos containing.

Inconclusive - CR Conflicting Results: Sample yielded 1% or less asbestos as determined by gravimetric reduction and TEM analysis but had protruding fibers identified as asbestos during preliminary examination - further sampling and analysis needed.

Inconclusive - Trace (type of asbestos) detected at 1% or less Asbestos identified at 1% or less by the 198.6 method, and 0 asbestos points out of 400 (or more) nonempty points were counted. Further testing by TEM using NYS 198.4 method is required.

Trace asbestos detected at less than 1% For methods 198.1 and 198.8, NYSDOH defines trace as samples where 0 asbestos points out of 400 (or more) nonempty points were counted, but did contain asbestos positively identified by PLM.

Trace asbestos detected at less than 1% For method 198.4 NYSDOH defines trace as asbestos detected at 1% or less.

REGULATORY LIMIT: > 1% by weight
