About this file
This is an asbestos bulk sampling inspection report for a USDA storage building. The inspection was conducted by Midwest Environmental Consulting Services, Inc. (MEC) on April 23, 2026, at USDA Storage Building 004, located at 1815 N University Street, Peoria, Illinois 61604. The comprehensive survey was performed prior to planned demolition of the facility.
The inspection identified four homogeneous areas within the building, three of which tested positive for asbestos-containing materials (ACM). Materials confirmed to contain asbestos include: plaster (SPA) in the North Side Room containing 2% chrysotile; cementitious fittings (TJA) in the North Side Room containing 60% chrysotile; and pipe insulation (TPA) in the North Side Room containing 20% chrysotile. Asphalt shingles on the roof tested negative for asbestos. The sampling strategy followed United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) homogeneous area protocols, and bulk samples were analyzed using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) via the EPA 600/M4-82-020 method with AHERA "positive stop" protocol. Laboratory analysis was conducted by EMSL Analytical, Inc., an NVLAP-accredited facility. The report recommends that prior to any renovation or demolition, an Illinois Department of Public Health licensed asbestos abatement contractor be retained, and that project design, oversight, and air monitoring be implemented to address the identified ACM.

Section 1:
Introduction:
MEC Project #:
Observe, assess, and collect bulk samples of friable and non-friable asbestos containing building materials within the specific scope of work.
The inspection was intended to identify all homogeneous areas, and did not attempt to identify or address any other environmental health hazards.
The scope of work did not include identifying all potential concerns or eliminate possible risks.
A total of four (4) homogeneous areas were identified within the scope of work and of the four (4) homogeneous areas, three (3) homogeneous areas tested positive for asbestos content. Zero (0) homogeneous areas were assumed to contain asbestos.
The inspection was to address the following objectives:
Section 3:
Building Description:
The bulk sampling strategy is based upon the protocol of homogeneous areas established by the
United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). A homogeneous sampling area (HSA) is defined as an area of material that is uniform in color, texture, construction, general appearance, and date of installation.
Bulk samples of suspect ACM were analyzed by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) utilizing the EPA-
600/M4-82-020 Method. Bulk samples were analyzed using Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response
Act (AHERA) “positive stop” protocol, meaning each sample of each HSA group is analyzed until asbestos is found in the HSA or all samples in the group are analyzed and are negative for asbestos content.
Midwest Environmental Consulting Services, Inc. (MEC) was retained by USDA Peoria to conduct a comprehensive asbestos bulk sampling survey for suspect asbestos-containing materials (ACM) in a storage building located at 1815 N University Street, Peoria, IL 61604. The asbestos inspection was performed on April 23, 2026. This comprehensive asbestos bulk sampling inspection was intended to address the potential existence of ACM on the interior and exterior prior to future planned demolition of the storage building.

Section 5:
Prior to any planned renovation or demolition taking place, Midwest Environmental Consulting Services, Inc., strongly recommends that either the client contact Midwest Environmental Consulting Services, Inc., or the Illinois Department of Public Health or the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency in regards to applicable rules and regulations.
This survey report is for the exclusive use of USDA and its respective affiliates, designees, successors, and assignees, and no other party shall have any right to rely on service provided by Midwest
Environmental Consulting Services, Inc., without prior written consent. This asbestos survey is not intended to be a scope of work or project design. Estimated quantities of materials are for information only and should not be utilized for abatement bidding purposes.
Although Midwest Environmental Consulting Services, Inc., has attempted to identify all suspect asbestos materials located on the inside of the building; some materials may have been inaccessible.
Midwest Environmental Consulting Services, Inc. makes no warranty, expressed or implied.
Sincerely, Executive Summary:
Standard practice requires that the owner provide Certified-As-Built drawings for review by the inspector. At the time of the inspection, these drawings were not available. Therefore, the accuracy of the inspection can only be based on the materials that were accessible or known about prior to the inspection. If a suspect material is identified during demolition, all work shall stop immediately until the materials can be sampled for asbestos content.
During renovation or demolition, it is recommended that a project design, project oversight, and air monitoring be in place prior to any asbestos abatement work being conducted. An Illinois Department of Public Health licensed asbestos abatement contractor must be in place prior to any asbestos abatement activities.

EMSL maintains liability limited to cost of analysis. Interpretation and use of test results are the responsibility of the client. This report relates only to the samples reported above, and may not be reproduced, except in full, without written approval by EMSL. EMSL bears no responsibility for sample collection activities or analytical method limitations. The report reflects the samples as received.
Results are generated from the field sampling data (sampling volumes and areas, locations, etc.) provided by the client on the Chain of Custody. Samples are within quality control criteria and met method specifications unless otherwise noted. The above analyses were performed in general compliance with Appendix E to Subpart E of 40 CFR (previously EPA 600/M4-82-020 “Interim Method”) but augmented with procedures outlined in the 1993 (”final”) version of the method. This report must not be used by the client to claim product certification, approval, or endorsement by NVLAP, NIST or any agency of the federal government. Non-friable organically bound materials present a problem matrix and therefore EMSL recommends gravimetric reduction prior to analysis. Unless requested by the client, building materials manufactured with multiple layers (i.e. linoleum, wallboard, etc.) are reported as a single sample. Estimation of uncertainty is available on request.
