PROJECT SUMMARY
On August 30, 2017, MAC Services, LLC (MAC) conducted a comprehensive Asbestos Determination
Survey for all accessible building materials within a specified area of Building No.12 at the Bedford VA
Hospital Complex located at 200 Spring Road in Bedford, MA.
The survey focused on all suspect building materials associated with the interior of the building area as well as the exterior of the area. Materials sampled included but were not limited to: ceiling tile, floor tile and associated mastic, caulking, insulation materials, plaster, joint compound, gypsum board, tile grout and adhesive as well as carpet glue. All materials listed in Table I were sampled and analyzed as suspect materials. All materials determined to be asbestos containing are listed in Table II.
There was one (1) material sampled that was determined to be asbestos containing. In addition, there was one other material that was less than 1%. This material (plaster) only needs to be disposed of as asbestos containing material not removed as such and does not need to be handled by a Licensed Abatement contractor. The one identified asbestos containing material (exterior white caulking) must be removed by a licensed Asbestos Abatement contractor before being disturbed.
SECTION I
Section one of this report details the survey methodology and scope of investigation.
A. SCOPE OF WORK
The buildings specified for Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) determination were inspected by a
Massachusetts Licensed Inspector, Joseph Cooney (AI 000187) who physically touched material, collected bulk samples, assessed the physical condition of the materials suspected of being asbestos containing, and completed the field survey forms. The inspector is experienced and has conducted previous asbestos surveys, specifications, asbestos air sample analysis, and monitoring as well as reporting of asbestos repair and removal projects. Standardized forms were used to gather data, including chain of custody records to accompany samples to the laboratory.
Samples were collected, with each homogenous area of material sampled. Typically, materials are broken down into three separate categories described as follows:
Surfacing Material (SM): is defined as material that is sprayed on, troweled on, or otherwise permanently applied to surfaces, such as acoustical plaster on ceilings, and fireproofing materials on structural members, or other materials on surfaces for acoustical, fireproofing, or other purposes.
Thermal System Insulation (TSI): are materials applied to pipes, fittings, boilers, breaching, tanks, ducts, or interior structural components to prevent heat loss or water condensation, or for other purposes.
Miscellaneous Material (MM): are interior and exterior building material on structural components, structural members or fixtures, such as floor and ceiling tiles, and vinyl sheeting and does not include surfacing material or thermal systems insulation.
Basement Level
200 Springs Road
Some definitions of terms are as follows:
A homogeneous material is a surfacing material, thermal system insulation material, or miscellaneous material that is uniform in color and texture.
A friable material is one which, when dry, may be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.
Non-friable materials typically contain bonding agents (e.g., cement, plastics, asphalt, and glue) that lock the asbestos fibers into the product. The inspector identified all visible flooring material that could potentially contain asbestos.
All suspect materials, presented as homogeneous materials in each functional space, are listed in Table
(1). There were nine (9) materials determined to be asbestos containing from sampling completed during this survey.
B. SAMPLING SURVEY
MAC has developed standard procedures to be used in order to randomly sample each material suspected of being asbestos containing. In order to classify any homogeneous material as a non-asbestos containing building material, a sufficient number of samples are collected and analyzed. All samples analyzed must show the lack of asbestos content (less than one percent asbestos) in order to be considered non-asbestos containing. If a material has trace amounts of asbestos (less than 1%) the material is not considered
‘Asbestos Containing’ and therefore, doesn’t have to be removed as asbestos containing, however, it must be disposed of as asbestos containing.
Samples were taken and logged in on a chain of custody form and delivered to Asbestos Identification
Laboratory of Woburn, MA for analysis. The bulk samples were analyzed by polarized light microscopy
(PLM) (EPA Interim Method: Appendix A of Subpart F-40 CFR Part 763 and/or EPA 600/R-93/116).
Asbestos Identification Lab is licensed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (#AA 000208) for bulk asbestos analysis and is a NVLAP accredited laboratory.
CLASSIFICATION OF MATERIAL CONDITION
Where applicable, all identified asbestos containing material is classified as to physical condition as follows:
GOOD (G):
Asbestos containing building material in good condition at the time of the survey was whole and complete and typical of newer installation.
Basement Level
200 Springs Road
DAMAGED (D):
Asbestos containing building material in damaged condition at the time of the survey was generally complete but showed some signs of damage or deterioration. Material is classified as damaged when the damage or deterioration covers less than one tenth of the material's surface and is evenly distributed, or when it covers less than one quarter of the material's surface and is localized. This material typically needs attention but does not constitute emergency removal.
SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGED (SD):
Asbestos containing building material is determined to be significantly damaged when at the time of the survey, the material was damaged or deteriorated, often with pieces missing. A material is classified as significantly damaged when the damage/deterioration covers more than one tenth of the material's surface and is evenly distributed, or when it covers more than one quarter of the materials surface and is localized.
SECTION II
ANALYTICAL DATA
Thirty-three (33) samples of materials suspected to be asbestos containing were collected. Thirty-two (32) were analyzed. Analytical Data is presented on the following pages. There was one (1) material determined to be asbestos containing. All materials suspected of containing asbestos and that were sampled, are identified in Table 1. All materials determined to be asbestos containing are listed in Table 2
The white caulking at the window exteriors must be removed by a licensed Asbestos Abatement contractor prior to being disturbed. There is approximately 140 Linear Feet of white caulking to be removed.
Table 1:
"Suspect Homogeneous Building Materials", lists all building materials, related to the planned renovations, suspected of containing asbestos. Asbestos containing materials are divided into the three categories established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Asbestos Hazard
Emergency Response Act (AHERA): Thermal Systems Insulation (TSI) Surfacing Material (SM), and
Miscellaneous Material (MM). Each material is identified by the appropriate two-letter prefix
Table 2:
"Asbestos Containing Building Materials", lists all building materials that were determined to contain a minimum of 1% asbestos by PLM analysis. This table specifies the material by description and where the sample was obtained from as well as the type and % of asbestos that exist for that material. In addition, there is an estimated quantity of that material to be removed. Actual quantity should be verified by the
Abatement Contractor who is to remove the material.

Asbestos Identification Laboratory
Dear Joe Cooney, Thank you Joe Cooney for your business.
Michael Manning Owner/Director
Asbestos Identification Laboratory has completed the analysis of the samples from your office for the above referenced project .
The information and analysis contained in this report have been generated using the EPA /600/R-93/116 Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials. Materials or products that contain more than 1% of any kind or combination of asbestos are considered an asbestos containing building material as determined by the EPA. This Polarized Light Microscope (PLM) technique may be performed either by visual estimation or point counting. Point counting provides a determination of the area percentage of asbestos in a sample. If the asbestos is estimated to be less than 10% by visual estimation of friable material, the determination may be repeated using the point counting technique. The results of the point counting supersede visual PLM results. Results in this report only relate to the items tested. This report may not be used by the customer to claim product endorsement by NVLAP or any other U.S. Government Agency.
Laboratory results represent the analysis of samples as submitted by the customer. Information regarding sample location, description, area, volume, etc., was provided by the customer. Asbestos Identification Laboratory is not responsible for sample collection activities or analytical method limitations. Unless notified in writing to return samples, Asbestos Identification Laboratory discards customer samples after 30 days. Samples containing subsamples or layers will be analyzed separately when applicable. Reports are kept at Asbestos Identification Laboratory for three years.

1.0 INTRODUCTION & EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Mabbett and Associates, Inc. (M&A), with Covino Environmental Associates, Inc. (Covino) 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 200 Springs Road, Bedford, MA, under Contract VA241-P-1653. A complete list of buildings surveyed is in Volume I of this report. Site survey work was performed in July, 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 or screening of the following samples, resulting in the following conclusions:
• 70 bulk samples for suspect ACM were collected in this building.
• Based on laboratory analysis of suspect ACM, 6 of the collected samples contained asbestos greater than or equal to 1%.
• 66 XRF analyzer screening measurements of building surfaces were taken in this building.
• Based on XRF screening measurements, 35 of the XRF measurements revealed concentrations of lead in paint that exceeded 0.1 milligram per square centimeter (mg/cm2).
This building report consists of a summary of findings, floor plans that indicate positive sample locations, detailed analytical findings for the specific surveyed building materials, and photos of identified ACM and LCP, greater than 1.0 mg/cm2 and in an other than intact condition.
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 12 was a three-story Office Building built in 1928 and occupied approximately 10,010 square feet.
3.0 ASBESTOS SURVEY
3.1 Sampling Methodology
A visual screening inspection was conducted to identify locations of suspect ACM throughout the building by state licensed asbestos inspectors. 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, areas that remained inaccessible to the survey team are indicated in Table 1 below.

No.
Reason Area Was Inaccessible and Survey
Impacts, If Applicable
There were no inaccessible areas identified during this survey.
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
Due to these access restrictions, 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 using EPA Method 600/R-93/116. When required, sample results that revealed trace concentrations (greater than 0% but less than or equal to 1%) of asbestos by PLM were 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 for PLM analysis 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, Chapter 1, Table 4. Copies of the laboratory accreditations are included in Volume III of the Comprehensive VAMC Lead and Asbestos Survey Report.
All bulk sample results are summarized in Table 4 – Summary of 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.
3.3 Summary of Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) Findings
3.3.1 Data Tables, Laboratory Results, and Field Notes

* The VISN 1 risk hazard assessment scale 1 – 4 is a relative indicator of the risk and need for response/remediation. (1) represents the highest priority (e.g. removal or encapsulation) whereas a (4) represents the lowest priority (monitor as part of 6 month O&M program). The rating assigned by an Asbestos Management Planner, takes into account: condition, friable vs. non-friable, accessibility, occupancy (e.g. continuous, intermittent or occasional and patients/staff/visitors), potential for air erosion, potential for vibration damage, potential for disturbance/damage (e.g. exposed and in an accessible location), and potential for water damage.

Building areas containing ACM have been indicated with hatching to identify the location of the identified ACM.
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). The XRF instrument was calibrated at the frequency specified in the SOP.
4.2 Summary of Lead Screening Survey Findings

4.2.3 CADD Drawings
Based on the results of the lead screening survey, a table of LCP components identified with > 0.1 mg/cm2 lead content was developed. This table is presented on the CADD drawings for use by the VAMC for exposure assessments and preliminary renovation planning. Based on the results
©2011, Mabbett & Associates, Inc. Page 7 of 8 Survey Report Bedford Building 12_2-11_FINAL.doc of the survey, these components identified in the CADD table and on the plan should be assumed to be LCP unless otherwise determined.
5.0 LIMITATIONS
This survey report is the result of a diligent search of the building for ACM and LCP. Only accessible areas were included in this survey. Although a comprehensive inspection was performed, M&A does not claim to have identified all of the ACM and LCP that could be present in the facility (for example, materials potentially located within aforementioned inaccessible areas discussed in Section 3.1). 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 reported herein.
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 whether any of the materials identified as ACM or LCP 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 laboratory analytical data for bulk samples prove otherwise. Suspect ACM that may be present within the walls, above inaccessible hard ceilings, or in other inaccessible locations, and that accordingly was not inspected should be assumed to contain asbestos if discovered until otherwise verified, as previously described. 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 intact 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, personnel 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 O&M Management Plan available in Volume I of the Comprehensive VAMC Lead and Asbestos Survey Report.
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 buildings are focused on protecting workers involved with paint disturbing activities and related waste disposal activities.
©2011, Mabbett & Associates, Inc. Page 8 of 8 Survey Report Bedford Building 12_2-11_FINAL.doc
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 LCP determination cannot determine a safe level of lead, but is intended to provide guidance as to the locations of where LCP is present. 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 a lead concentration greater than 0.1 mg/cm2 has been utilized as a threshold established by VISN 1 for areas where possible worker exposures may occur.
