1.0 Executive Summary

AirMD is providing results to the client for the above reference project. AirMD’s objective was to conduct paint chip sampling for the presence of lead. The project was requested as a result of reported concerns of interior ceiling material affected by a roof leak. A site visit was completed on September 23, 2022. Sampling was conducted in the kitchen. The information provided in this report is based upon the agreed scope relative to the reported issue(s)/claim.

Paint chip samples were collected for analysis by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (FLAA). The purpose of sampling was to assess whether lead was present on surfaces sampled. A total of one paint chip were collected from representative areas within the building on the state park property for laboratory analysis. Samples were collected from accessible surface coatings on representative homogenous building components. A homogenous component is a building material that is uniform in color, texture and appears identical in every respect. The collection of samples was to screen and was not intended to be a comprehensive assessment of every painted surface.

The paint chip sampling was not a chapter 7 lead-based paint inspection as required under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The purpose of sampling was to assess whether lead-based paint is present within the property. The survey was designed to determine if lead based paint was present in building materials that are being removed during remediation activities. The entire property was not inspected. Inspection was limited to areas that will be potentially disturbed during the proposed remediation.

The building components tested during the inspection included: the ceiling in the kitchen. The guidelines specify a positive determination of lead in paint when the lead content is equal to or greater than 0.50% by weight of lead. Any paint found to contain lead levels below the HUD standard is considered to be non-hazardous, regardless of condition.

Based on the results of the paint chip sampling, the paint chip sample collected tested negative for lead below the regulatory limit of 0.50% by weight. The surfaces within this building on the state park are in good condition and are not considered to be “lead-based paint hazards”.

2.0 Introduction

The subject property is a building within a state park of concrete construction with a pitched shingle roof system. In the areas assessed, packaged terminal air conditioners (PTAC) serve the structure and the interior walls are concrete while the ceilings are acoustic ceiling tiles.

AirMD was retained to complete sampling based on potential remediation following a reported roof leak. The agreed scope of work included collecting paint chip samples to determine if there is a presence of lead-based paint. The agreed sampling areas included sampling of the kitchen.

Note, the site visit was specific to the scope of work described previously. The purpose of the report is to detail the findings. It is very important that the necessary time be taken to read the report in its entirety.

3.0 Methodology

Surface sampling and analysis were conducted in accordance with United States Environmental Protection Agency (E.P.A.) and United States Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines as an individual component test for the presence of lead-based paint for the compliance of the 40 CFR Part 745 Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule (RRP). All inspection procedures and sample collections were conducted in accordance with guidelines and in accordance with Chapter 7 of the HUD Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing (1997 Revision). AirMD performed the following scope of work and sampling plan pursuant to discussions with the client(s) which included the following:

• Conduct a visual assessment of the accessible areas of the property for the presence of potential lead-based paint building components.

• Collect paint chip samples using a template of known size to collect the sample from the surface for analysis using the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) SW-846 Test Method 3050B/7000B.

• Submit samples under chain of custody for analysis to EMSL Analytical, Inc located in Orlando, FL, who is accredited through successful participation in the National Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (NLLAP) and meets the requirements established under Title X of the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992. The laboratory analyzed the samples using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (FLAA).

• Interpret the analytical results and compare the results to the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standard of 1.0 mg/cm2 or 0.5% by weight as defined by Title X of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992.

• Provide a written summary of results report.

4.0 Results

Based on the results of the paint chip sampling, the paint chip sample collected tested negative for lead below the regulatory limit of 0.50% by weight. During the demolition process, materials hidden behind wall cavities or other enclosures may be uncovered which may require further testing not included in this report.

The surfaces within this residential structure are in good condition and are not considered to be “lead-based paint hazards”. The employment of the lead precautionary standards of the rule is not required. The renovation, repair, or paint activity does not require the training requirements or safety controls under the RRP rule. Note, OSHA lead in construction standard 29 CFR 1926.62 does not recognize a threshold level for lead based paint in materials. Any work conducted with materials that have a presence of lead may be regulated by OSHA. It is the contractor’s responsibility to determine compliance with the OSHA standard for workers safety and health.

Disclosure Responsibility

A copy of this report must be provided to new lessees (tenants) and purchasers of this property under Federal Law (24 CFR part 35 and 40 CFR part 745) before they become obligated under a lease or sales contract.

Limitations: AirMD’s test results do not guarantee that the indoor environment is free from contaminates, gases, organisms or analytes sampled for. The customer understands that the there are limitations associated with the instrumentation used associated with accuracy, precision, and uncertainty. Additionally, further limitations are present because of sampling and measurement methods/procedures utilized in testing and measuring as well as any or all other factors such as environmental and climatic conditions. Control samples such as duplicates, blanks and comparison samples were all considered as part of the sampling plan and those implemented were based on the agreement with the client with considerations made relative to economic factors. The customer is aware that destructive testing was not performed and the customer understands that the assessment and testing/measurements completed, and the results generated as a result of the assessment and testing/measuring are representative of conditions found at the time and that conditions can change over time. Customer understands that the test results do not guarantee that the indoor environment is free from contaminates, gases, organisms or analytes sampled for. Customer herby acknowledges that microbiological growth reoccurs if the root cause or source of the growth is not remedied and that no investigation can absolutely rule out the existence of any microbiological growth at any given site.

AirMD retains the right to supplement this report should additional information become available and/or further issues are discovered.
