HAZARDOUS MATERIALS SURVEY

Sandy Hook Well #4

341 Randolph Drive, Highlands, New Jersey Terracon Project No. J6215069

September 9, 2021

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Terracon Consultants, Inc. (Terracon) conducted a hazardous materials survey for Well #4 located in the Sandy Hook National Recreation Area near 341 Randolph Drive in Highlands, New Jersey. The hazardous materials survey included an asbestos survey, lead paint testing, and visual observations for universal wastes, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), refrigerants, and chemical storage. The hazmat survey was conducted at the site on August 9, 2021 by a United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)-accredited asbestos inspector and New Jersey-licensed lead inspector in general accordance with Task Order #140P2021F0100, dated June 28, 2021. Terracon collected samples from various accessible, dominant-type interior paints for laboratory analysis to determine lead-content. Accessible interior and exterior building components were surveyed, and homogeneous areas of suspect asbestos-containing materials (ACM) were visually identified and documented for the purpose of subsequent sample collection and laboratory analysis to determine asbestos-content.

Although reasonable effort was made to survey accessible suspect materials, additional suspect materials could be located in walls, in voids, or in other concealed areas.

1.1 Project Objective

We understand our scope of services was requested due to planned replacement of Well #4.

Asbestos surveys are required prior to renovation and demolition activities to satisfy requirements of the USEPA) 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 61, Subpart M, the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) regulation. The purpose of the lead testing was to provide general information so that contractors who disturb paints with lead can take the appropriate actions to comply with US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulation 29 CFR 1926.62 – Lead in Construction. The purpose of the visual observation task for other hazardous material items was to create an inventory of such items if they exist, as these would become hazardous waste and would need to be diverted from sanitary landfills by properly collecting/handling and treating/recycling at appropriately accredited/licensed facilities per federal, state, and local regulations.

2.0 BUILDING DESCRIPTION

The site is a small masonry wellhouse containing one well pump. The well house and pump have been out of service for many years as of the time of this survey.

3.0 FIELD ACTIVITIES

3.1 Asbestos Sampling

The asbestos survey was conducted by Ms. Megan Cruz, a USEPA-accredited asbestos inspector on August 9, 2021. A copy of Ms. Cruz’s asbestos inspector accreditation is attached as Appendix C. The survey was conducted in general accordance with the sample collection protocols established in US EPA 40 CFR Part 763, Subpart E, Section 763.86, known as the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA). A summary of survey activities is provided below.

3.1.1 Asbestos Visual Assessment

Survey activities were initiated with visual observation of the accessible interior and exterior areas of the wellhouse structure to identify homogeneous areas of suspect ACM. A homogeneous area (HA) consists of building materials that appear similar throughout in terms of color and texture with consideration given to the date of application.

3.1.2 Asbestos Physical Assessment

A physical assessment of each HA of suspect ACM was conducted to assess the friability and condition of the materials. A friable material is defined by the USEPA as a material which can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure when dry. Friability was assessed by physically touching suspect materials.

3.1.3 Asbestos Sample Collection

Based on the results of the visual observation, bulk samples of suspect ACM were collected in general accordance with USEPA AHERA sampling protocols. Samples of suspect materials were

September 9, 2021 ■ Terracon Project No. J6215069

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 3 collected from randomly selected locations in each homogeneous area. Bulk samples were collected using wet methods as applicable to reduce the potential for fiber release. Samples were placed in sealable containers and labeled with unique sample numbers using an indelible marker.

The selection of sample locations and frequency of sampling were based on Terracon’s observations and the assumption that like materials in the same area are homogeneous in content.

Terracon collected a total of 12 bulk samples from four (4) homogeneous areas of suspect ACM.

A summary of suspect ACM samples collected during the survey is included as Appendix A.

Bulk samples were submitted under chain of custody to EMSL of Piscataway, New Jersey for analysis. Friable samples were analyzed by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) via EPA method 600/R-93/116 and non-friable organically bound (NOB) samples were analyzed by PLM NOB via EPA method 600/R-92/116 with gravimetric reduction. Additionally, NOB samples with inconclusive results (<1% asbestos) via PLM NOB were additionally analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) via EPA method 600/R-93/116b. EMSL’s Piscataway, New Jersey laboratory is accredited under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP), accreditation number 101048-2. The laboratory was instructed to analyze samples from each homogeneous area until the first sample containing asbestos was identified. The laboratory analytical data report is attached in Appendix B.

3.2 Limited Lead Paint Sampling

Terracon visually assessed the interior and exterior of the wellhouse structure on August 9, 2021 and collected paint chip samples from dominant-type, representative painted components for laboratory analysis. The paint chip samples were submitted to EMSL of Cinnaminson, New Jersey, a laboratory participating in the Environmental Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELLAP), accreditation number 100194, for lead-content analysis. A total of seven (7) paint chip samples were collected from accessible dominant-type painted surface coatings and analyzed for lead-content via EPA Method SW846 3050B/7000B using flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry (Flame AAS).

3.3 Hazardous Materials Observations

Terracon visually observed the interior of the wellhouse structure and the area immediately surrounding it for the following items:

n Universal wastes (mercury-containing equipment, batteries, and waste lamps), n Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), n Refrigerants, and n Chemical Storage.

4.0 REGULATORY OVERVIEW

4.1 Asbestos

The asbestos NESHAP (40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M) regulates asbestos fiber emissions and asbestos waste disposal practices. The asbestos NESHAP regulation also requires the identification and classification of existing ACM according to friability prior to demolition or renovation activity. Friable ACM is a material containing more than 1% asbestos that, when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. All friable ACM is considered regulated asbestos containing material (RACM).

The asbestos NESHAP regulation classifies material subject to demolition or renovation as either RACM, Category I non-friable ACM, or Category II non-friable ACM. RACM includes all friable ACM (pre-disturbance), along with Category I non-friable ACM that becomes friable (during disturbance), and Category I non-friable ACM subject to sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading, or Category II non-friable ACM with a high probability of becoming crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by forces expected to act on the material during disturbance. Category I non-friable ACM are exclusively asbestos-containing packings, gaskets, resilient floor coverings, and asphalt roofing products that contain more than 1% asbestos. Category II non-friable ACM are all other non-friable materials (other than Category I non-friable ACM) that contain more than 1% asbestos. Category II non-friable ACM generally includes (but is not limited to) cementitious material such as: cement pipes, cement siding, cement panels, glazing, mortar, and grouts.

Asbestos activities are regulated by the New Jersey Department of Labor (NJDL) and the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services (NJDHSS) under the NJDL Asbestos Control and Licensing Act (N.J.S.A. 34:5A-32). The regulations require that any asbestos-related activity conducted in a public building be performed by personnel licensed by the NJDL. The owner or operator must provide the NJ Department of Environmental Protection, NJDL, NJDHSS, and the NJ Department of Community Affairs with written notification of planned removal activities at least 10 working days prior to the commencement of asbestos abatement activities that will disturb RACM in amounts greater than or equal to 3 square feet 3 linear feet.

The Public Employee Occupational Safety and Health Program (PEOSH), by authority established under the PEOSH Act of 1995 (N.J.S.A 34:6A-25 et seq., enacted in 1984 and amended on July 25, 1995) is responsible for promoting the health and safety for government employees in the State of New Jersey. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) maintains jurisdiction over all workplaces. The OSHA standards at 29 CFR 1910.1001 and 29 CFR 1926.1101, regulates employee exposure to asbestos. The OSHA standard requires that employee exposure to airborne asbestos fibers be maintained at or below 0.1 fibers per cubic

September 9, 2021 ■ Terracon Project No. J6215069

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 5 centimeter of air (0.1 f/cc) as an eight-hour time weighted average (TWA) and not exceed 1.0 fibers per cubic centimeter of air (1.0 f/cc) over a 30-minute time period known as an excursion limit (EL). The TWA and EL are known as OSHA’s permissible exposure limits (PELs). The OSHA standard classifies construction and maintenance activities which could disturb ACM, and specifies work practices and precautions which employers must follow when engaging in each class of regulated work.

4.2 Lead Paint

Lead paint is regulated by the EPA, New Jersey Department of Health (NJDH), and OSHA. The EPA and NJDH regulate lead use, removal, disposal, and OSHA regulates lead exposure to workers. The EPA defines “lead-based paint” (LBP) as paint, varnish, stain, or other applied coating that contains lead equal to or greater than 1.0 mg/cm2, 5,000 mg/Kg, or 0.5% by dry weight as determined by laboratory analysis. EPA and NJDH regulations only apply to residential housing and child-occupied facilities. For the purpose of the OSHA lead standard, “lead” includes metallic lead, all inorganic lead compounds, and organic lead soaps. A synopsis of the OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1926.62) and the applicability are as follows:

The OSHA Lead Standard for Construction (29 CFR 1926.62) applies to all construction work where an employee may be occupationally exposed to lead. All work related to construction, alteration, or repair (including painting and decorating) is included. The lead-in-construction standard applies to any detectable concentration of lead in paint, as even small concentrations of lead can result in unacceptable employee exposures depending upon on the method of removal and other workplace conditions. Under this standard, construction includes, but is not limited to, the following:

n Demolition or salvage of structures where lead or materials containing lead are present n Removal or encapsulation of materials containing lead n New construction, alteration, repair, or renovation of structures, substrates, or portions containing lead, or materials containing lead n Installation of products containing lead n Lead contamination/emergency clean-up n Transportation, disposal, storage, or containment of lead or materials containing lead on the site or location at which construction activities are performed n Maintenance operations associated with construction activities described above

5.3 Hazardous Material Items Observation Summary

Universal Wastes

Universal wastes (UW) are specific hazardous waste streams that a generator can choose to manage in an alternative manner in place of the more complex hazardous waste requirements.

These wastes are generated by numerous businesses, typically in small quantities. The Universal Waste Rules (UWR) are intended to promote recycling as well as proper disposal by easing certain regulatory requirements. New Jersey’s UWRs are located in New Jersey Administrative Code (NJAC) 7:26A and the federal UWRs are located in 40 code of federal regulations (CFR)

261. A waste must be a hazardous waste before it can be a universal waste. If a hazardous waste stream is not managed as a universal waste, then the waste must be managed as a hazardous waste under the applicable hazardous waste regulations.

It should be noted that any materials resulting from the release or clean-up of spills or breakage of any universal waste is not itself universal waste. It must be determined whether or not such materials are a hazardous waste as identified in 40 CFR 261, and the material must then be managed and disposed in accordance with applicable hazardous or solid waste regulations.

Lamps This category includes hazardous waste lamps that meet the definition in NJAC 7:26A. The universal waste lamp category is slightly broader in that it includes lamps that are hazardous for any characteristic, not just for mercury. However, fluorescent light bulbs remain the most common item in this category of universal waste. This category does not include associated light fixture components such as ballasts. Hazardous waste lamps become subject to this rule if they are hazardous waste under 40 CFR 261, and when they are permanently removed from a fixture or determined to be discarded. A note about crushing: crushing of hazardous waste bulbs is considered treatment, which is explicitly prohibited under the Universal Waste Rule (40 CFR 273.11(b) and 273.31(b)). The only circumstance where hazardous waste lamps may be allowed to be crushed is when they are managed as fully regulated hazardous waste (rather than as universal waste) which is treated (i.e., crushed) in tanks or containers by the generator of the waste under the implied generator treatment allowance in 40 CFR 262.34, and in conformance with all applicable hazardous waste management standards.

Lamps were not readily identified at the site.

Potential Mercury-Containing Equipment

This category, added to the Federal Rule at 40 CFR 273 on August 5, 2005. It includes devices, items, or articles which contain elemental mercury that is integral to their functions and which would otherwise be regulated as a hazardous waste when discarded by virtue of exhibiting the toxicity characteristic (TC) for mercury (hazardous waste code D009). Some examples of such items include mercury-containing thermostats (formerly a separate universal waste category in

September 9, 2021 ■ Terracon Project No. J6215069

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 8 the original rule), thermometers, barometers, mercury switches, and certain types of meters, regulators, and gauges, in which elemental mercury is contained in ampules or otherwise enclosed and can be managed intact. This category does not include cathode ray tubes or other types of electronic equipment in which elemental mercury is not integral to function, nor does it include mercury waste that is generated as a by-product through the process of manufacturing or treatment.

While no readily visible indication of equipment with potential mercury was observed, please be aware that mercury seal in water pumps may be present. Water pumps are comprised of a motor, moving parts that pump the water, and a water intake area. Dynamic seals create a barrier between the electrical parts of the motor and the water intake area. Seals prevent water from entering the motor casing and damaging the electrical components of the motor. The seal must stop water from entering the motor enclosure but must allow for movement of parts that extend from the motor into the intake area. A seal typically includes a main barrier, made of metal or other material. However, where moving parts extend from the motor to the intake area or at the edges of the main barrier, gaps will exist. Because of its high surface tension, mercury’s physical properties make it useful as a seal material to fill in these gaps. The mercury also acts as a lubricant, keeping the moving parts moving and preventing friction from overheating the unit.

Mercury quantities in submersible pump seals can be as high as 12 pounds (U.S. EPA, 2001).

Mercury seals have been identified in submersible well pumps at public water systems. While most manufacturers currently report using alternative sealing technologies, mercury sealing technology may have been common as recent as the 1990s.

Please note that well pumps and motor parts may also contain lubricating oils which have PCBs.

PCBs and the site’s well pumps are discussed on the following page with photos. It is recommended that any water pumps at the site be assumed to have mercury seals if the pump is ten years or older, and/or information on the sealing technology cannot be determined. If to be discarded, such equipment should be carefully removed, handled and treated/recycled at a facility such as manufacturer or hazardous waste treatment/recycling facility which is accredited/licensed to properly address lubricating oils, PCBs, and mercury in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations, and any Client or Owner project specifications.

Batteries

This category includes discarded primary (non-rechargeable) and secondary (rechargeable) batteries that contain elements such as cadmium, lead, or mercury, which would render them as Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous wastes. Examples are nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cad), sealed lead-acid, or mercury-oxide batteries. UW batteries are defined as devices consisting of one or more electrically connected electrochemical cells that are designed to receive, store and deliver electric energy. Lead-acid batteries (such as automotive batteries) that are generated, transported, or collected to be reclaimed, or regenerated, but not reclaimed where stored, under provisions of 40 CFR 266, Subpart G, “Spent Lead-Acid Batteries Being Reclaimed,” do not need to be managed as UW. However, waste lead-acid batteries not

September 9, 2021 ■ Terracon Project No. J6215069

Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable 9 managed, or eligible for management, under 40 CFR 266, Subpart G, are subject to the UW Rule requirements. Lead-acid batteries that are stored at facilities that reclaim them are subject to RCRA regulation as specified in 40 CFR 266.80(b). Many commonly generated waste batteries, such as dry cell zinc-carbon and alkaline (“long life”) batteries, typically do not contain appreciable amounts of the hazardous elements of concern, and hence would not be required to be managed as UW. However, they may be managed along with UW batteries, and this is encouraged in the interest of diverting them from less desirable disposal destinies such as incineration or disposal in solid waste landfills.

Equipment assumed to contain batteries was not readily identified at the site.

Potential PCB-Containing Equipment

The potential exists for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)-containing ballasts to be present in fluorescent light fixtures throughout the subject building. If ballasts are not marked "No PCB", they must be treated as containing PCBs. In 1978, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a ban on manufacturing equipment using PCBs, which most ballasts manufactured before 1978 contained, due to it being hazardous to both human health and the environment.

PCBs are regulated under the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) through U.S. EPA. The U.S.

EPA Region 2 regulates the specifics on proper management of PCBs. If the generator determines that the ballasts do not contain hazardous constituents and do not contain PCBs then they can be disposed of as solid waste; however, they must first be evaluated in accordance with NJAC 7:26A to determine if they are hazardous. If they are hazardous and will be disposed, they must be managed as a hazardous waste and cannot be disposed of in a solid waste dumpster or landfill. The U.S. EPA and state recommendations for management of non-leaking ballasts is recycling. Ballasts that are leaking and are determined or assumed to contain PCBs must be disposed properly at an EPA-approved facility.

Fluorescent light ballasts were not observed to be associated with the subject site building.

However, please note that lubricating oils may also be a source of PCBs. A well pump was observed within the wellhouse and several motor parts were observed surrounding the structure.

The age of the pump and associated equipment is unknown to Terracon. Terracon did not disassemble equipment but rather assumed that such items contain lubricating oils with potential PCBs; additional quantities may be present.

As noted above, well pumps may contain mercury seals as well as lubricating oils with potential PCBs. The age of any pumps and motors with lubricating oils was unknown to Terracon. It is recommended that any water pumps and motor equipment at the site be assumed to contain lubricating oils with PCBs and mercury seals. If to be discarded, such equipment should be carefully removed, handled and treated/recycled at a facility such as manufacturer or hazardous waste treatment/recycling facility which is accredited/licensed to properly address lubricating oils, PCBs, and mercury in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations and any Client or Owner project specifications.

Refrigerants

Under Section 608 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), U.S. EPA has established regulations (40 CFR Part 82, Subpart F) concerning refrigerants. The highlights of these regulations include:

· Require service practices that maximize recovery and recycling of ozone-depleting substances (both chlorofluorocarbons [CFCs] and hydrochlorofluorocarbons [HCFCs] and their blends) during the servicing and disposal of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment.

· Set certification requirements for refrigerant recycling and recovery equipment, technicians, and refrigerant reclaimers.

· Restrict the sale of refrigerant to certified technicians.

· Require persons servicing or disposing of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment to certify to EPA that they have acquired refrigerant recovery and/or recycling equipment and are complying with the requirements of the rule.

· Require the repair of substantial leaks in air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment with a refrigerant charge greater than 50 pounds.

· Establish safe disposal requirements to ensure removal of refrigerants from goods that enter the waste stream with the charge intact.
