Mr. James Parker Office of Environmental Services, Division of State Lands Florida Department of Environmental Protection 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, MS 140 Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000
RE: Cost Estimate for Asbestos Containing Material (ACM), Lead-Based Paint (LBP), Mold and Radon Assessments Residential Structures Volusia Conservation Corridor Volusia County, Florida
Dear Mr. Parker:
Aerostar SES LLC (ASL) is pleased to provide a cost estimate to perform a mold and radon assessment at the referenced site. The site consists of two residential structures. One structure, constructed in 1960, consists of 2,300 square feet. The second structure, constructed in 1987, consists of 1,500 square feet. The site is located in Volusia County, Florida. ASL is a State of Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR)-Licensed Asbestos Business Organization under License #ZA455. All mold assessment activities will be conducted under the direct supervision of a Florida DBPR-Licensed Mold Assessor. ASL is certified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to conduct LBP activities in the state of Florida under Certification Number LBP-1654-1. ASL is licensed by the Florida Department of Health (FDOH) to provide indoor radon measurement services. All placement and retrieval of devices will be conducted by FDOH licensed radon measurement technicians or specialists.
SCOPE OF WORK
ACM Survey
ASL will perform an asbestos survey throughout all accessible interior of the residential structure conducted in 1960. All asbestos survey work will be performed by an Asbestos Hazardous Emergency Response Act (AHERA)-certified asbestos inspector under the direction of a DBPR Licensed Asbestos Consultant (LAC). The survey will be conducted in general accordance with AHERA guidelines and the ASTM International guidelines in Standard Practice for Comprehensive Building Asbestos Surveys (E2356-18) to satisfy the National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) asbestos regulation focusing on demolition requirements. All bulk samples will be submitted to EMSL Analytical, Inc. (EMSL), a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-accredited laboratory under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP), for analysis of asbestos bulk samples by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) using dispersion staining techniques in accordance with EPA
J:\Data\Proposals\17 - Asbestos, LBP Surveys, Radon\FDEP\FDEP Carter Trust Volusia County.doc
Method EPA/600/R-93/116 of July 1993. In accordance with this sampling method, each individual layer of multi-layered material will be separated prior to analysis. Results will be reported for each layer. The entire sample material will be considered to be ACM if one or more layers contain asbestos.
During the asbestos inspection, ASL�s AHERA-certified asbestos inspector will:
1. Label each ACM sample and location with a unique homogeneous area (HA) ID number.
2. Label each sample container with same homogeneous area ID number.
3. Record descriptive location information (i.e., floor, column, and room numbers).
4. Record estimated square footage and condition of each material.
ASL estimates up to 45 samples will be collected for laboratory analysis by PLM. The actual number of samples collected for laboratory analysis will be determined in the field in order to comply with AHERA, ASTM, and NESHAP requirements. If additional samples are needed to complete the investigation, ASL will contact the client prior to analyzing any additional samples collected. Samples will be submitted for an analysis turn-around time of 72-hours (72-Hr TAT) following receipt by the laboratory.
If friable materials which are analyzed by PLM contain less than 10% asbestos fibers, the samples may be a) reanalyzed by the 400 Point Count Method to further characterize the concentration of asbestos fibers, or b) assumed to contain >1% asbestos and handled accordingly. If Point Count Method analysis is recommended to complete the investigation, ASL will contact the client prior to additional analysis of the samples.
Lead-Based Paint Survey
ASL will conduct a LBP survey throughout the interior of the residential structure conducted in 1960. The survey will be conducted by an EPA-certified lead inspector or risk assessor. The survey includes testing all paints and coatings. ASL will perform the survey with a NITON brand X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) Analyzer. The XRF testing protocol will be generally based on HUD Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing (Chapter 7) published in June, 1995 and revised in 2012. Results will be compared to the HUD definition for LBP of 1.0 milligrams per cubic centimeter (mg/cm2) by XRF, which is accepted by the EPA.
Conditions, locations, components, and substrates will be recorded. Identified LBP will not be quantified. No paint chip samples for laboratory analysis will be collected as part of this survey.
Mold Assessment
ASL will conduct a mold assessment throughout both residences. Mold assessment activities will include the following:
Perform a visual inspection throughout the structure for visible signs of mold, water damage, or other potential impacts.

Obtain carbon dioxide, relative humidity, and temperature readings using a calibrated IAQ meter from the interior and exterior of the structure.
Collect moisture readings from building materials in areas with visible water damaged or stained material or from areas where material may be impacted due to potential water intrusion sources using a non-destructive moisture meter to identify moisture content in building materials.
Collect three microbial air samples within each structure and one sample from outside each structure for comparison of airborne spore concentrations. Samples will be submitted to EMSL, Inc. (EMSL), an American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA)-accredited laboratory under the Environmental Microbiology Laboratory Accreditation Program (EMLAP) for direct examination analysis of spore concentration and genus of mold identified, fungi content, and fungal particulates. Samples will be submitted for analysis with a 72-hour turn-around time (72-Hr TAT) from receipt by the laboratory.
Perform an inspection of accessible HVAC system components for the presence of visible mold growth, water damage, and moisture content.
Radon Survey
ASL will perform a radon survey of both residences. Two short-term radon detection devices will be placed within each structure. Duplicate devices will be collected at a minimum of 10% of the locations for quality assurance and a minimum of one blank device will be submitted for each set of 20 devices to comply with the Florida Department of Health (FDOH) brochure Mandatory Radon Measurement Protocols (Brochure DH 150-334). The devices will be collected after a minimum of 48 hours, as per manufacturer instructions, and submitted to a DBPR licensed laboratory for analysis of radon and radon progeny. Sampling protocols set forth by the United States Environmental Protection Agency�s (US EPA) �Protocols for Radon and Radon Decay Product Measurements in Homes� under US EPA #402-R-93-003, US EPA�s �Indoor Radon and Radon Decay Product Measurements� US EPA #402-R-92-004, Section 404.056, Florida Statutes (FS), and Chapter 64E-5 Florida Administrative Code (FAC) shall be followed during the inspection and in the reporting of the results and findings. Upon receiving analytical results, a report will be prepared outlining the results of our findings. ASL will also submit a copy of the FDOH form DH 1777 to the state.
For sample results to be valid, the following conditions must be maintained for 12 hours preceding the measurements and during the measurement period:
All windows and doors must be kept closed except for normal entry and exit.
The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system must be operated on a 24-hour basis in all rooms of the building.
J:\Data\Proposals\17 - Asbestos, LBP Surveys, Radon\FDEP\FDEP Carter Trust Volusia County.doc
The normal heating, cooling, or ventilation cycle must be in operation for the building appropriate for the time of year testing is conducted.
Thermostatic controls must be set to the normal operating temperatures used when the building is occupied.
Report Preparation
ASL will prepare separate reports outlining the results of the surveys to document our findings.
The reports will include, if needed, recommendations for further assessment; and an outline of applicable local, state, and federal regulations.
