Re: Asbestos and Lead-based Paint Sampling and Analysis XGFG182003 F-35 ADAL B510 Warehouse and Supply Wisconsin Air National Guard Truax Field Madison, WI

Mr. Loudon:

On behalf of Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company, Inc., Ayres Associates (Ayres) assessed the ADAL Building B510 Warehouse and Supply building at Truax Field, for the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) and lead-based paint (LBP). The single-story building has a floor space of approximately 40,000 square feet and is used as a supply warehouse and base supply administration.

The building was constructed in 1987. It is our understanding that the building may be renovated. The goal of this assessment was to identify ACM and LBP before renovation for estimating costs. The assessment was conducted in areas accessible for inspection. Restricted portions of the building were not assessed. Appendix A contains a figure showing the site location and a figure showing the floor plan of Building B510.

Asbestos Assessment The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) requires building owners or operators to inspect for the presence of ACM before renovation or demolition. ACM refers to any building material containing greater than 1% asbestos. In all cases, materials may be assumed to contain asbestos but can never be assumed not to contain asbestos. If material is assumed to contain asbestos, then it must be appropriately managed as ACM. Any suspect ACM that is not listed in this report should be sampled or assumed to contain asbestos.

Asbestos-containing materials, as designated by the WDNR, are defined as:

Category I non-friable ACM means asbestos-containing packings, gaskets, resilient floor coverings, and asphalt roofing products that contain more than 1% asbestos. When dry, category I non-friable ACM does not crumble, pulverize, or reduce to powder under hand pressure. These materials can remain in place during demolition and renovation if they are not in poor condition and are not rendered friable by handling, transporting, or disposal. Construction and demolition (C&D) material containing non-friable category I ACM may be disposed of at an approved C&D landfill, including a WDNR-approved one-time disposal landfill, or at any other landfill with a plan of operation approved under chapter 289, Stats. Contact the landfill for assistance. However, non-friable ACM that is sanded, ground, cut, or abraded during the demolition should be treated as friable ACM and disposed of accordingly.

Category II non-friable ACM means any non-friable material, excluding category I non-friable ACM, containing more than 1% asbestos. When dry, category II non-friable ACM does not crumble, pulverize, or reduce to powder under hand pressure. An asbestos inspector classifies materials as category II non-friable ACM on a case-by-case basis. The WDNR requires the removal of category II non-friable ACM that is likely to become friable during demolition. Cement board and transite are examples of category II non-friable ACM that often become friable and should be removed before demolition or renovation.

Project: 51-0475.00 File: \\ayres\_Active\51\MD\00-51-0475 Burns and McDonnell\510\510 Asbestos Report.docx

Regulated ACM (RACM) means friable ACM and category I non-friable ACM that has become friable or that is subjected to sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading. RACM also includes category II non-friable ACM that is likely to become friable during demolition. Materials such as pipe insulation, duct paper wrap, sprayed on, or tiled sound insulation materials are usually considered RACM. Friable ACM has little structural strength and readily releases asbestos fibers upon breaking. The WDNR requires the removal of RACM before demolition or renovation.

Methodology On December 9 and 10, 2020, William Honea (AII-226200, exp. 12/16/2020) and Thomas Gaieck (AII- 256096, exp. 11/16/2021) of Ayres, Wisconsin-certified asbestos inspectors, sampled building materials for laboratory analysis. Copies of their current inspector cards are in Attachment B. Nine rooms in the administration portion of the building, including storage rooms and offices, were locked and inaccessible during the December 2020 assessment. Trailer storage and mechanical room on the north end were also inaccessible. These areas later became accessible and were subsequently inspected by Mr. Gaieck on January 20, 2021

The methods used to identify suspect materials, collect samples, analyze materials generally follow EPA, 40 CFR 763, and other applicable federal and state regulations and guidelines. At the time of this assessment, the property was occupied and in use. Ayres used limited destructive sampling methods to prevent exposing workers to fiber releases and avoid damage to operational equipment and critical building components.

This assessment's scope included estimating the quantities of reasonably and safely accessible ACM, sampling suspect materials, and summarizing their physical condition. The condition of ACM is essential for determining if it must be removed before renovation or demolition or if it can remain in place and be removed as asbestos-containing debris.

Samples of suspect materials were submitted to EMSL Analytical in Minneapolis, Minnesota, for analysis by polarized light microscopy (PLM) using EPA method 600/R-93/116. National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) requires the verification of PLM results of less than 10% by point-counting, or those materials must be assumed and treated as ACM. In this assessment, all samples with PLM results greater than 1% were considered ACM, and no samples required verification by point-counting. The appropriate chain-of-custody forms accompanied the samples submitted for laboratory analysis.

This report is only intended to identify the location, condition, and estimated quantity of ACM, not to require specific response actions by the contractor. A certified asbestos inspector should test suspect ACM found during demolition or renovation that is not described in this report.

Asbestos Results A summary of the quantities, locations, conditions of confirmed and assumed ACM are provided in the table below. Attachment C contains the asbestos laboratory report and chain-of-custody. The laboratory report provides the sample number, description, sample location, and the asbestos type and percentage for each material sampled. The following materials were confirmed through testing or assumed to contain asbestos and are considered non-friable category I or Category II ACM.

See the laboratory reports in Attachment C for sample locations and test results. A total of 35 electrical/control panels and 10 fire doors were identified during the site visit. a Estimated area of ductwork.

Limitations The quantities of ACM listed in this report are visual estimates, not exact measurements. Additionally, ACM classifications may change as the condition of building materials change.

Ayres does not sample active mechanical or electrical systems unless they are de-energized by certified personnel following lockout/tag-out procedures. To maintain safe working conditions and the integrity of these building systems, their components were not sampled and were assumed to contain asbestos.

Likewise, destructive testing was limited in some areas to maintain the integrity of critical structural components, such as the roof system and walls. Additional destructive sampling and wall cavity investigation may be necessary if these areas will be disturbed during demolition or renovation. Similarly, because this was an active facility, Ayres did not assess the presence of ACM in operational equipment.

Asbestos Recommendations A certified asbestos company should abate RACM and non-friable ACM that is likely to become friable before starting demolition or renovation activities that are likely to disturb them. Similarly, ACM should be abated before recycling any attached substrates, such as wood, metal, glass, concrete, or other masonry materials. The selected asbestos company should be licensed to perform abatement work in the state of Wisconsin by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS). Before beginning any demolition or activities involving the disturbance of ACM, submit a "Notification of Demolition and Renovation and Application for Permit Exemption" form and applicable fees to the WDNR (Attachment D).

The quantities of RACM and non-friable ACM listed in this report are visual estimates. Ayres recommends verifying these amounts before project design, bidding, budgeting, or submitting a notification of demolition activities to WDNR.

Any suspect ACM found during demolition that is not described in this report should either be sampled by a certified asbestos inspector and analyzed; or assumed to contain asbestos. Manage confirmed and assumed ACM following all applicable federal, state, and local regulatory requirements. Several WDNR publications are available to guide building owners and operators through the proper handling and disposal procedures for ACM (Attachment D).

Lead-bearing Paint Assessment Ayres assessed the presence of lead-bearing paint on masonry surfaces. Testing was completed to assist with the removal and recycling of these materials. Any paint that was not sampled should be assumed to contain lead until additional testing proves otherwise.

Paint samples were analyzed by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (SW 846 5050B/7000B), and the lead concentrations were reported as percent by weight. This method analyzes the sample as a whole and does not identify the lead content in discrete paint layers. Paint is considered lead-bearing paint in Section 254.11(8) of Wisconsin Statues if it contains more than 0.5% by weight or 1.0 milligrams per square centimeter (mg/cm2).

Lead-bearing Paint Results A total of five paint samples were collected from masonry surfaces. None of the samples contained lead at a concentration above the LBP threshold of 0.5% by weight. Although three samples lacked sufficient volume to achieve the EPA reporting limit, the reporting limits were still sufficient to determine that lead was not present in the paint at concentrations above the LBP threshold. The laboratory report is included in Attachment E.

Lead-bearing Paint Recommendations Lead-bearing paint was not present on the masonry surfaces tested. Masonry that is unpainted or coated with paint that is not lead-bearing (<0.5% by weight) may be used as fill, aggregate, or recycled under NR 500.08(2)(a). However, specific environmental performance, location, and operational requirements apply. Ayres recommends reviewing these requirements, which are listed in NR 504.04(3)(c) and NR 504.04(4)], before using unpainted masonry or masonry coated in non-lead-bearing paint as fill.

This report is intended for the sole use of Burns & McDonnell Engineering, Company, Inc. Ayres does not assume liability for the use of this report by unauthorized parties, nor does Ayres assume responsibility or liability for the discovery or elimination of adverse environmental conditions that could cause accidents, injury, damage, or otherwise create a hazardous environment.

Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Waste & Materials Management Program 1

Before beginning any demolition or renovation project, it is important to know about harmful materials that may be present on your project site.

This guide walks contractors and building owners through the steps to identify harmful materials commonly found at project sites and to handle and dispose of them safely. It also offers proper ways to manage recyclable and reusable materials and other wastes that are common in demolition and renovation projects.

The Resources section on the last page has links to websites with more information.

Note: This document is not intended as a substitute for reading the rules, regulations, and statues related to handling demolition and renovation debris. It is simply a guide to assist you in determining how they apply to your demolition or renovation project.

COMMON HARMFUL MATERIALS

Buildings can contain a number of harmful materials that may expose workers and the public to serious health risks and pollute the air, land and water if handled or disposed of in an unsafe way. Five of these harmful materials are common on project sites and need special care in

HAZARDOUS AND

UNIVERSAL WASTES

Some wastes, such as used or unused solvents, sanitizers, paint wastes, chemical wastes, pharmaceuticals, gas cylinders, aerosol cans and pesticides, may be hazardous waste and regulated by the EPA and DNR. Hazardous wastes must be removed from a project site prior to demolition or renovation and be disposed publication “Is Your Waste Hazardous?” (WA- 1152) at wa1152.pdf to determine if a waste is hazardous.

See Handling and Disposal Choices on page 7 for information on how to dispose of hazardous wastes on a project site.

Universal wastes are hazardous wastes that can be collected and transported with fewer regulations. Universal wastes include hazardous waste batteries, certain pesticides, mercury thermostats and other mercury-containing equipment and some lamps (light bulbs). In Wisconsin, antifreeze can also be managed as a universal waste if it is recycled. See chapter NR 673 of Wisconsin Administrative Code for more details on recycling and reusing universal waste.

Burning of clean, unpainted and untreated wood is allowed with a DNR burning permit using DNR-approved methods. When burning this type of wood from demolition waste, you must separate out all of the illegal materials, including painted or treated wood, before any burning occurs. The DNR encourages chipping clean, untreated wood for mulch or ground cover.

If you do decide to burn clean, unpainted and untreated wood, it is your responsibility to know what restrictions apply in the area where you are burning. Remember, you must also follow local burning ordinances that may be more information on local burning rules.

Asbestos Health risks: Asbestos is a known human carcinogen that can cause serious health problems when disturbed and inhaled. Historically, asbestos was commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential structures.

Asbestos is still used today but to a lesser extent.

Location and/or materials: Asbestos is used in more than 3,000 building materials. Asbestos is commonly found in HVAC systems, electrical systems, blankets, laboratory tabletops, fume hood lining, for a detailed list of building materials and locations that may contain asbestos.

The Department of Health Services requires licensed inspectors to identify asbestos. Inspectors can assume asbestos to be present, or they can identify it through testing. The DNR requires an asbestos inspection for certain projects and recommends it for others.

• Two or more contiguous single family homes

• Homes that are part of a larger demolition project

• Industrial, manufacturing or commercial buildings including bridges, farm buildings, and churches exercise

• Single family homes

• Multi-family housing with 2–4 units

Inspection must be completed and asbestos materials must be removed before beginning any demolition or renovation activities.

Health risks protective ozone layer high in the atmosphere, allowing rays. Some of the harmful effects of increased UV exposure include increased risk of skin cancer, eye damage.

control equipment.

Health risks: Inhaling or swallowing lead dust can cause serious health effects, including kidney disease, neuropathy, infertility, heart and cardiovascular disease, 6 Guide to Hazard Evaluation, Recycling and Waste Disposal

Location and/or materials: Lead plumbing and lead-based paint are commonly found in many older buildings. Lead may be found in paint on woodwork and metal equipment, leaded glass, lead window-sash and solder. Lead is found in both indoor and outdoor applications. Lead is also found in lead-acid batteries associated with older lighting, exit signs, and security systems.

The Department of Health Services requires licensed inspectors and risk assessors to identify lead paint. When building surfaces or components are being renovated in any residential and child-occupied buildings built before 1978 (such as private homes, rental units, day care centers, and schools), lead paint must be assumed to be present or

Lead paint sampling is recommended on commercial and industrial projects. The US discontinued manufacturing lead paint for residential use by 1978, but lead is still used in specialty paints in commercial and industrial applications. Most buildings have multiple layers of paint, and all layers should be considered.

Health risks: Liquid mercury evaporates slowly at room temperature and gives off harmful vapors that are invisible and odorless. Breathing these vapors causes the most harm to people, but mercury can also be harmful when it comes in contact with broken skin or when it is swallowed. Women and children are most at risk from mercury poisoning, which can cause brain and nerve damage, resulting in impaired coordination, blurred vision, tremors, irritability and memory loss.

Mercury poisoning also causes birth defects.

Location and/or materials: Mercury may be found in thermometers, barometers, thermostats, dental other types of light bulbs. Any equipment used for are most commonly associated with commercial and industrial equipment systems, including tanks, boilers, furnaces, heaters, electrical systems, water cleaning systems, and systems for the movement or pumping of gas (air) or liquid (water). In addition, mercury containing devices are common in certain agricultural operations such as dairy, and may be present in older model consumer appliances, vehicle light switches and residential properties, especially larger multi-unit amalgam that may be found in sink drain traps. Mercury can also be found as part of older wastewater treatment

Health risks: PCBs may cause cancer in humans and can disrupt hormone and nervous system function. PCBs are persistent in the environment and consumption advisories for humans.

Location and/or materials: PCBs can be found in electrical oils (e.g. transformers and capacitors in appliances) electronic equipment, heat transfer paints, specialty paints (e.g. swimming pools) and caulking materials. Sumps, oil traps and concrete may be contaminated with PCBs as well. Electrical devices manufactured prior to 1978 should be assumed to contain PCBs.

You may be able to determine PCB concentrations in electrical equipment manufacturer indicating the PCB concentration at the time of manufacture, or service records showing the PCB concentration measured when the equipment was serviced. If a manufactured date and PCB content label are not found on a transformer or capacitor, the oil should be tested to determine the PCB content prior to labeled “No PCBs” may still contain PCBs, but at a concentration lower than what the EPA regulates. The oils in this equipment should still be tested to see if they contain PCBs and then handled appropriately.

Testing of specialty paint, epoxies and caulks in buildings built or renovated between 1950 and 1979 is recommended. High levels of PCBs are being found in these materials across the country. Once testing is complete, boldly label all surfaces and items that were found to contain PCBs so they are handled appropriately during renovation or demolition.

HANDLING AND DISPOSAL CHOICES

You have a few options for handling and disposing of lead, mercury, PCBs and other wastes from your project site that qualify as hazardous waste. Identifying these options prior to beginning the project can help you schedule transportation and disposal and maintain the overall project schedule.

• to pick up and dispose of hazardous wastes. This takes the guess work out of handling these types of wastes. Contractors have properly trained personnel that will determine appropriate packaging, shipping and vehicle licensing and have established relationships with disposal facilities.

Other choices provide you with reduced regulation and may change depending on the amount of hazardous waste generated in a month. As a contractor, you may manage hazardous wastes you generate at temporary job sites only according to the following options. For more details on these options, see the DNR publication “Pilot Project for Management of Contractor Generated Hazardous Waste” (WA-654) at pdf/pubs/wa/wa654.pdf.

to transport the hazardous waste to a licensed or permitted hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facility. In this case, you must follow the applicable generator requirements in chapters NR 660-679 of Wisconsin Administrative Code.

In this case, the site owner must follow the applicable generator requirements in chapters NR 660-679 of Wisconsin Administrative Code. If you choose this option, be sure to include this in your contract with the site owner.

directly from the temporary job site to a Household and Very Small Quantity Generator (VSQG) Hazardous Waste Collection Facility. This includes county or municipal Clean Sweep locations. If the total quantity of hazardous waste generated by your company in one month is less than 220 lbs. (about half of a 55-gallon drum), you would be a VSQG and your hazardous waste may be taken to a Clean Sweep location for handling and disposal. Contact your local Clean Sweep coordinator for information on possible fees, accepted materials, and other details.

This option is currently available under a pilot project. Waste handled in this manner is subject to the pilot project conditions. See the publication referenced above for more information.

STEP 4. Hire specialized consultants, contractors or transporters to remove and properly manage harmful materials prior to starting your project.

Hiring the right consultant, contractor or transporter is important to ensure safe handling practices and disposal options. This section will help you determine who to hire.

Links to lists of licensed consultants, contractors and transporters are on the last page under Resources.

Asbestos removal in most multi-unit residential and all commercial, industrial, manufacturing and government buildings.

Most types of asbestos-containing materials must be removed from the building prior to demolition or renovation.

The asbestos removal contractor is responsible for disposing of the asbestos materials at a accepted and the hours of operation.

In some situations, non-friable asbestos materials (materials that are resistant to crushing), such as demolition activities. When this is done, the debris must be taken to a municipal or construction and demolition may not be taken to a construction and demolition recycling facility.

Keep units that contain them. Moving them may cause an accidental release haulers, community recycling programs, and appliance salvage businesses. State law requires that anyone transporting salvaged refrigeration units must certify to the DNR that they will transport items in a way that prevents refrigerant releases. Technicians who remove refrigerants from units must be registered with the DNR and use approved equipment.

Recovery Corporation for more information. Do releasing these substances is prohibited under federal regulations.

Once the refrigerants are recovered, the unit may be taken to a metal scrap recycling facility. If you send halon-containing equipment offsite for disposal, it or recycler operating in accordance with National Fire Protection Association standards.

or building components that contain lead paint. Do not burn or chip wood that contains lead paint or use it for landscaping.

Lead paint waste, such as lead paint chips or lead paint removed from commercial or industrial buildings, must be tested to determine if it is a hazardous waste for disposal purposes.

See Handling and Disposal Choices on page 7 for handling and disposal options.

You may collect intact mercury-containing devices and bring them back to your primary business location or bring them directly to an off-site mercury recovery facility. Do not remove mercury ampoules or free liquids from the device. Store devices in a covered plastic container to prevent them from breaking.

Label the container to assist proper handling and disposal.

If any mercury is spilled or released during handling, report the spill immediately by calling the DNR 24-hour and even a small spill can cause big cleanup costs in a short period of time.

DEMOLITION AND

RENOVATION WASTE

Disposal options for demolition and renovation wastes depend on the type of waste and, in some cases, the amount generated. Solid wastes such as trash, painted wood, and

If demolition wastes are going to a non-building components, such as books, furniture and trash must be removed before you begin demolition (note that most of these non-building components can be reused or recycled). Non-building components may stay in the building if the demolition waste is going how to manage your wastes.

Demolition debris may be taken to a construction and demolition recycling facility if all asbestos materials and other harmful materials have been removed prior to demolition or renovation.

Wisconsin, go to dnr.wi.gov and search “licensed waste haulers and facilities.”5 equipment are needed for safe removal of mercury from ampoules and devices. Mercury must be transported by a licensed hazardous waste transporter to a mercury facility to be recycled or reclaimed.

See Handling and Disposal Choices on page 7 for handling and disposal options.

caulk containing PCBs be removed during planned renovations and repairs (when replacing windows, doors, roofs, ventilation, etc.). It is important to ensure that PCBs are not released into the air during renovation or repair of affected buildings.

Oils with PCB content greater than 50 ppm are prohibited from being mixed with other materials to reduce the PCB content.

PCBs must be transported either by your company, a licensed hazardous waste transporter or a full-service contractor. PCBs and PCB-containing wastes must be taken to a licensed disposal facility or directly to a licensed incineration facility. Arrangements for accepting PCBs must be made with these facilities ahead of time.

See Handling and Disposal Choices on page 7 for handling and disposal options.

STEP 5. Request and file all receipts for the disposal of harmful and non-harmful materials related to the project to avoid potential enforcement action.

As materials are removed from the project site, ask your contractors for disposal receipts to document the disposal or recycling of your wastes. This is an important step in protecting your company. If materials are illegally dumped, the DNR will investigate to determine where the materials came from. Part of the investigation process would be to identify projects in the area that may have been the source of the illegally dumped materials. Receipts show that your project wastes were disposed of appropriately and protect you

Once the harmful materials have been removed

DNR is submitted with the appropriate dates of demolition, demolition may begin. This includes

If all harmful materials, including all types of asbestos, have been removed from the building or structure before demolition, the resulting debris may be taken to a construction and demolition recycling facility.
