(40 CFR 59; 17 CCR 94500-94700; EKAPCD Rule 202.II.I; MDAQMD Rule 219.E.13; AVAQMD Rule 219.E.12)

13. The use of abrasive blasting, sanding, rock crushing, cement batching, woodworking, metalworking or coating spray equipment may require a permit to operate depending on hours of use and the method of application. Additionally, reasonable control measures such as using only approved materials or particulate matter collection apparatus may be required for operation. Provide equipment specifications to Environmental Management for additional guidance on permit applicability. (13 CCR 2457, 17 CCR 92000; EKAPCD Rule 202.II.I,J,LM & 404.1 & 405; MDAQMD Rule 219.E & 220 & 404 & 405; AVAQMD Rule 219.E & 404 & 405 &1140)

Environmental Restoration Program (ERP)

Page 15/24

19. The project location for B1643 (attached ERP Map) within the Environmental Restoration Program (ERP) Site No. 021 (attached ERP Map), Site title as ST021. ERP wells including groundwater monitoring well location is located northwest of the project location (attached ERP Map). Damage to ERP equipment and infrastructure must be avoided (Measure 20) or Measure 21 shall be followed. There are Groundwater Solvent Related Contamination plumes (within the northern and northeastern portion of the building 1643), and petroleum related contamination plumes (within the northern and northeastern portion of Building 1643). If the proponent/contractor notices soil discoloration or odors during any indoor/outdoor activities, they shall report this observation immediately to Bioenvironmental Engineering (412 OMRS/SGPB) at (661) 277-3272. Contact [Operable Unit Manager Julia Tseng] at (661) 277- 1415 or 277-1401 for additional information about this ERP site.

20. To avoid damage to ERP equipment and infrastructure, maintain a 10 ft buffer around them.

Be caution of the groundwater monitoring wells when staging equipment in the northwest area of the building 1643 and maintain 10-ft buffer if encountered.

21. If change and/or damage to ERP equipment and infrastructure occurs during your project activities, the proponent/contractor are responsible to re-establish and/or repair them by accredited ERP subcontractor within the time frame agreed upon with ERP Manager.

22. Vapor intrusion concern. As described in my previous Sections 1 & 2, contaminated groundwater is shown within the project locations (ERP Map). If people will be working in the facility and soil of Building 1643 will be exposed, then to mitigate vapor intrusion (VI) risk, include vapor barrier device with the new foundation if disturbed. Additionally, apply ventilation inside the building (it should be well ventilated during the presence of workers inside building 1643) to mitigate the exposure to contaminants inhalation.

Toxic Substances/Asbestos/Lead/Mercury/PCBs

23. All industrial structures and all pre-1981 non-industrial structures are assumed to contain asbestos and lead-based paint until testing has proven otherwise.

24. All untested building materials, except unpainted wood, metal and glass, regardless of age, are assumed to contain asbestos until testing has proven otherwise.

25. All paint, regardless of age, is assumed to contain lead for OSHA purposes, until testing has proven otherwise.

Areas that will be disturbed by the proposed project activities contract the 412 CES/CEOER (Asbestos and Lead Operations Officer) at (661) 277-4475 for asbestos-containing materials (ACM)/lead-based paint (LBP) survey information. The Asbestos and Lead Operations Officer will advise if existing survey information is adequate or if additional sampling is required in order to determine if ACM/LBP is present in areas to be disturbed.

32. If asbestos or lead is detected in areas that will be disturbed, contact the 412 CES/CEOER (Asbestos and Lead Operations Officer) at (661) 277-4475 for direction regarding asbestos and/or lead removal and disposal requirements, and work plan submittal requirements.
