About this file
This is a Limited Pre-Renovation Hazardous Materials Survey Report prepared by Vista Environmental Consulting for the County of San Mateo regarding the second floor of the County Office Building 1 (COB1) located at 455 County Center, Redwood City, California. The survey was conducted on May 2, 2026, to identify and characterize hazardous materials present in the building that may be impacted by the County Office Building 1 Renovation and Modernization Work Package 2 (WP2) Project, which has a contract completion timeline of 204 calendar days with Level 1 work requiring completion by May 9, 2027. The survey identified multiple categories of hazardous materials including asbestos-containing materials (ACM), lead-based paint and lead-containing paint, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in light fixture ballasts, and universal waste materials. Specific findings include approximately 26,000 square feet of friable fireproofing material classified as Class I regulated asbestos-containing material, 14,250 square feet of vinyl floor tile with mastic, white thermal system fittings totaling 270 square feet, and an estimated 2,050 square feet of glazing in windows. Lead-based paint was identified on interior metal doors (5.5 mg/cm²) and floor drains (13 mg/cm²), with additional lead-containing paint detected on various interior surfaces. Other hazardous materials identified include approximately 1,321 four-foot fluorescent tubes, ten batteries in exit signs and backup systems, and 662 light fixture ballasts potentially containing PCBs.
The report emphasizes that all identified quantities are order-of-magnitude estimates and should not be used for bidding purposes; contractors are solely responsible for verifying actual quantities and locations through site visits and contractual bid documents. All asbestos disturbance and removal operations must be performed by California Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) registered and state-licensed asbestos contractors in compliance with Title 8 California Code of Regulations Section 1529, Bay Area Air District Regulation 11, and applicable federal standards. Lead-containing surface activities must comply with California Health and Safety Code sections and Title 8 CCR Section 1532.1, which governs occupational exposure to lead and requires worker training, medical evaluation, and respiratory protection. The contractor must manage all universal waste, electronic waste, and PCB-containing devices in accordance with California Department of Toxic Substances Control guidelines and Title 22 CCR standards. Any discrepancies between the survey findings and site conditions must be submitted in writing to the owner or owner's representative prior to bidding. The report was prepared by Christopher R. Burns, a Cal/OSHA Certified Asbestos Consultant and California Department of Public Health Lead Related Construction Certified Inspector/Assessor, on May 31, 2026.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Vista Environmental Consulting, Inc. (Vista) has prepared this limited pre-renovation hazardous materials survey report for the second floor at 455 County Center, Redwood City, CA 94063 (Project Site) for the
County of San Mateo (COSM).
The survey of the Project Site was generally consistent with the Vista proposal dated April 11, 2026 and approved by COSM.
The following areas of the building was surveyed:
The purpose of this survey was to identify hazardous building materials so they can be removed; waste characterized, and properly disposed of prior to being impacted by renovation activities. The data provided in this report can assist all parties involved in this project make informed decisions with regards to regulatory compliance and the health and safety of their employees. This survey included the following:
Visible and accessible suspect asbestos-containing materials (ACM) were assessed and sampled to determine asbestos content.
Representative painted and coated building components were assessed and categorized based upon standard selective demolition practices and sampled for lead content which can be used in preliminary waste stream characterization estimates.
Visible and accessible materials with the potential to have hazardous properties that are regulated and are commonly found in buildings were assessed, but not sampled. These materials include, but are not limited to:
Universal Waste (UW) materials, such as non-incandescent lamps, batteries, mercury-containing devices, and electronic waste; Batteries include, but are not limited to those found in exit signs, emergency lights, fire alarm systems, and back-up power systems;
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) containing devices such as lamp ballasts, wet-type transformers, and hydraulic systems;
Devices which may contain ozone depleting chemicals, such as Heating, Ventilation and
Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems, refrigerators, freezers, fire suppression systems and water coolers/fountains;
Devices with low-level radioactive sources such as smoke detectors and exit signs.
2.0 METHODOLOGY
Vista performed the pre-demolition hazardous materials survey on May 2, 2026.
Vista’s personnel on the project were:
Christopher Burns, a State of California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA)
Certified Asbestos Consultant (CAC) # 92-0224 and a State of California Department of Public
Health (CDPH) Lead Related Construction Certified Inspector/Assessor (LRCIA) #LRC-
00006938
Javier Rocha, a Cal/OSHA Certified Site Surveillance Technician (CSST) #02-3244
Vista’s intent was to perform a thorough survey and made a good faith effort to access all building materials down to the structural components and/or interstitial spaces. Quantities and locations are based upon areas that were accessed. Materials similar to those in this report may be present in areas which were not accessed.
2.1 Asbestos
The asbestos survey was performed generally in accordance with the AHERA protocol (40 CFR Part 763, Subpart E). Visual identification was performed by assessing visible and accessible structural, architectural, and mechanical components for the presence of suspect ACM at the Project Site.
This limited ACM survey was conducted in the following manner:
➢ Suspect ACM was categorized into homogeneous materials. A homogeneous material is defined as being a surfacing material, thermal system insulation, or miscellaneous material which is uniform in color and texture. It may also be additionally subcategorized using the date of installation, when available.
➢ A sampling scheme was developed based upon the location and quantity of the suspect homogeneous ACM. A rough order of magnitude estimate of each suspect homogenous ACM was calculated and recorded for future reference. A sampling scheme, including a specific number of samples per suspect homogeneous ACM, was calculated prior to sampling.
➢ Sampling guidelines established by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) were utilized for sampling each suspected homogeneous ACM. Methods described in Appendix
K of 8 California Code of Regulation (CCR) 1529 were utilized in the collection of each suspect homogeneous ACM sample.
➢ Trained California asbestos certified personnel, using appropriate sampling tools and sterile leak-tight Whirl-pak® containers, collected building materials that were suspected to contain ACM.
➢ Each suspect ACM sample was collected and sealed in its container and appropriately labeled with a unique sample identification number and recorded on an asbestos bulk sampling log. Each log contains a chain-of-custody to assure the proper transition of the samples from Vista to the analytical laboratory.
➢ Sampling tools were decontaminated, by using a clean wet cloth, between collection of each suspect sample to prevent the possibility of cross contamination of subsequent suspect ACM samples.
Suspect ACM samples were delivered, under proper chain-of-custody protocol, to SGS Laboratories
(SGS) in Hayward, California. SGS is accredited under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation
Program (NVLAP) and the California Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (Cal-ELAP).
The samples were submitted for analysis by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) utilizing dispersion staining techniques in accordance with the EPA’s “Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk
Building Materials” U.S. EPA/600/R-93/116, Visual Area Estimate, dated July 1993 and adopted by the
NVLAP as Test Method Code 18/A01.
2.2 Lead
Vista’s lead construction screening survey used an X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) direct read spectrum analyzer device to take readings of representative painted and coated surfaces and collected bulk samples for evaluation of lead levels for worker health and safety and preliminary waste characterization prior to construction activities.
The XRF device used was a Viken Detection, XRF Lead Paint Analyzer, Model Pb200i. This device is a thermoelectrically-cooled, sealed, CdTe diode detector optimized X-ray detection and uses a sealed cobalt
57, 5mCi (185 MBq) isotope for an excitation source.
This survey was a limited screening of paint for the purpose of characterizing the lead content in paint and coatings likely to be disturbed during work activities. For this purpose, XRF analysis was used to screen for lead levels and provides results that are generally representative of typical conditions but are not inclusive of all painted/coated surfaces present at the Project Site. This survey was not a surface-by-surface inspection as outlined in the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing pursuant to Title X of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992. These analytical data can be helpful in evaluation of lead-related environmental risks in general, but cannot be used to calculate worker exposures and is not a substitute for employee exposure monitoring or waste stream sampling.
Lead-Based Paint (LBP) is defined by CDPH as any paint containing lead levels exceeding 0.5 wt % (or
5,000 ppm or mg/kg) via paint chip sampling or 1.0 milligrams per centimeter squared (mg/cm²) or greater via X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) direct read instrument sampling. Cal/OSHA rules apply to “any detectable concentration of lead” without a specified detection level.
2.3 Other Hazardous Materials
Devices with potential hazardous materials were visually identified during the survey walk-through and their quantities were estimated and recorded. No attempt was made to disassemble devices or sample suspect materials within the devices. For example, fluorescent light fixtures must be presumed to contain
Universal Waste lamps, and ballasts which contain PCB oil are electronic waste, pending removal and disassembly of each unit to determine explicit product specific information that proves otherwise.
3.0 RESULTS
The following areas of the building was surveyed and contain the following hazardous materials:
Building/Areas Asbestos Lead-Based Paint or
Materials Lead Containing
Paint
Universal Waste, Suspect PCBs, and Other Hazardous
Materials
The Asbestos Materials Summary, Asbestos Sampling Inventories, Asbestos Sample Location Drawings, Asbestos Analytical Reports, Lead Materials Summary, Lead XRF Sequential Reports, and Other
Hazardous Materials Summary can be found in Appendix A – Survey Data.
The documents found in the appendices are not stand-alone documents and should not be separated from this report. Quantities and locations listed in the tables are order of magnitude estimates and are not to be used for bidding purposes. It is the sole responsibility of the contractor to verify quantities and locations of hazardous materials in the path of construction through site visits and contractual bid set documents, including, but not limited to all specifications, drawings, and addenda. Any discrepancies between the contractual bid set documentation and site visits must be submitted in writing to the Owner or Owner’s representative, prior to bidding.
BAAD classifications are based upon the material’s condition at the time of the survey or as rendered as a result of standard manual removal/demolition techniques. The use of “mechanical means”, non-standard or other aggressive removal/demolition techniques may result in a different classification.
4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
4.1 Asbestos
The results of the survey indicate that asbestos-containing materials are present at the Project Site.
Fireproofing debris was identified throughout the ceiling plenum, including, but not limited to ceiling tiles/grid and windows black iron supports. It is assumed to be inside open wall, column, and other cavities.
Fireproofing/Overspray was also identified on spandrel beams above windows and may extend outside the building in the soffit which could necessitate removing the windows and installing safety barriers to access.
The window abatement is not anticipated to be part of this renovation project.
Work performed during any activities that disturb the asbestos-containing materials identified in this report must be done in compliance with the most recent edition of all applicable federal, state, and local regulations, standards, and codes governing abatement, transport, and disposal of asbestos-containing materials. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
CCR, Title 8, Chapter 3.2, Subchapter 2, Article 2.5 - Registration Asbestos-Related Work
Sections 341.6 through 341.14
CCR, Title 8, Section 1529 - Asbestos in the Construction Industry
BAAD Regulation 11, Hazardous Pollutants, Rule 2, Asbestos Demolition, Renovation and
Manufacturing
40 CFR Part 763 - Subpart E, Asbestos Containing Materials in Schools (AHERA)
Materials encountered in the buildings that are not part of this report must be properly sampled for the content of asbestos or assumed to be asbestos containing prior to any disturbance.
Prior to Class I and II activities which will disturb identified or assumed asbestos, a Cal/OSHA registered and California licensed asbestos contractor must be utilized for abatement of asbestos that will be impacted. Vista recommends that all abatement operations be conducted under the direction of a
California Certified Asbestos Consultant.
4.2 Lead
The results of the survey indicate that lead-based paints/materials and lead-containing paints/materials are present in the path of construction at the Project Site.
At present there is no state or federal regulation requiring mandatory lead removal or abatement prior to disturbance of building materials with identified lead paint or coatings. However, there are applicable
Cal/OSHA worker protection and training requirements, Cal/EPA waste disposal requirements, CDPH requirements for public and residential buildings, and SB 460 lead hazard regulations that apply to lead-related construction activities, abatement activities and their associated wastes. The following is a brief discussion and summary of applicable regulatory requirements:
Cal/OSHA: Title 8, California Code of Regulation (CCR), Section 1532.1 (8 CCR 1532.1) governs occupational exposure to lead. This regulation requires that prior to initiation of certain activities, referred to as “trigger tasks”, workers must be trained, medically evaluated, and properly fitted with respiratory protection, and protective clothing until statistically reliable personal eight-hour time weighted average
(TWA) results indicate lead exposure levels below the Personal Exposure Limit (PEL) for each unique task which disturbs lead-based and lead-containing coatings. This process is known as a Negative
Exposure Assessment or NEA.
If the result of the exposure assessment is above the Action Level (AL) additional monitoring is required and if the result is above the PEL additional exposure monitoring, worker protection (including respirator protection and PPE), training and medical requirements apply. However, even where the NEA criteria is met, certain hazard communication training and work practice controls still apply where lead is disturbed.
“Trigger tasks” are tasks that are assumed to exceed the PEL pending an exposure assessment and they encompass the majority of construction activities that disturb surface coatings. Examples of “trigger” tasks range from manual paint scraping as a lower expected exposure up to hot work and abrasive blasting as the highest expected exposures, and include any non-listed task that the employer determines may potentially expose employees to lead levels above the AL.
“OSHA does not consider any method that relies solely on the analysis of bulk materials or surface content of lead (or other toxic material) to be acceptable for safely predicting employee exposure to airborne contaminates. Without air monitoring results or without the benefit of historical or objective data (including air sampling which clearly demonstrates that the employee cannot be exposed above the action level during any process, operation, or activity) the analysis of bulk or surface samples cannot be used to determine employee exposure.”- OSHA Standard Interpretation May 8, 2000.
OSHA states that these rules apply to “any detectable concentration of lead” without a specified detection level. Due to the Consumer Product Safety Commission currently allowing paint to contain up to 90 parts per million (ppm) or 0.009 wt% of lead, the variation of lead content due to aging and weathering, and the variation of detection limits associated with analysis of bulk materials, such as paint chips and surface content analysis via XRF, it is recommended that all painted or coated surfaces be treated as potentially containing lead. Positive analytical results by either method can be used to indicate that detectable lead is present but negative results cannot be interpreted as conclusively demonstrating the absence of lead.
Analytical data from analysis of bulk materials or surface content of lead can be helpful in evaluation of lead-related environmental risks in general but cannot be used to calculate worker exposures and are not a substitute for employee exposure monitoring. As a result of the above, any employee that works around potential lead-based or lead-containing coatings must have HAZCOM training and personal exposure air monitoring is additionally required for employees that disturb such coatings. Significant additional certification, notification, and work practices are required for materials found to be lead-based.
Any welding, cutting or heating of metal surfaces containing surface coatings should be conducted in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.354 and 8 CCR 1537. These regulations require surfaces covered with toxic preservatives, and in enclosed areas, be stripped of all toxic coatings for a distance of at least 4 inches, in all directions, from the area of heat application prior to the initiation of such heat application.
Cal/EPA through the Division of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC) regulates disposal of lead hazardous waste (22 CCR Division 4.5, Minimum Standards for Management of Hazardous and Extremely
Hazardous Wastes). DTSC has issued guidance indicating that architectural debris with intact lead paint is normally expected to be handled as general construction waste. However, waste stream segregation and analysis is still required for all lead painted or coated debris regardless if the paint or coating is intact on a building component or not. The resulting wastes may be hazardous under California and federal RCRA standards for lead and therefore require proper handling, packaging, labeling, and transportation under a proper manifest to a permitted hazardous waste storage, treatment and disposal facility.
CDPH: The Department of Public Health (CDPH) has specific requirements (Title 17 Sections 35001 thru 36100 et. al.) for hazard assessment and work in public or residential structures in regards to lead-based paint. These regulations require special certifications, work practices, and notification for such activities.
Senate Bill 460 (SB 460): An act to amend Section 1941.1 of the Civil Code, and to amend Sections
17961, 17980, and 124130 of, and to add Sections 17920.10, 105251, 105252, 105253, 105254, 105255, 105256, and 105257 to, the Health and Safety Code, relating to lead abatement. This bill allows for fines and criminal penalties to be levied on any person who is found to have performed lead abatement without containment or created a measurable “lead hazard” based upon current CDPH standards. A “lead hazard” means deteriorated lead-based paint, lead contaminated dust, lead contaminated soil, disturbing lead-based paint or presumed lead-based paint without containment, or any other nuisance which may result in persistent and quantifiable lead exposure.
Vista recommends that all parties that come into contact with paint that has detectable lead content follow all applicable federal, state and local regulations relating to employee health and safety and proper disposal of generated wastes.
4.3 Other Hazardous Materials
Other hazardous materials are present in the path of construction at the Project Site.
All potential and identified Universal Waste materials (UW) and Electronic Waste (E-Waste) impacted by the work should be removed and recycled or disposed of in accordance with the UW guidelines established by the DTSC, as stated in 22 CCR Sections 66261.9 and 66273.1 thru 66273.90.
Vista’s limited visual survey indicated that light fixtures with ballasts that may contain PCB oil are present. However, due to the limited nature of the random spot checks, Vista recommends that all ballasts be visually inspected prior to disposal to determine if they contain PCBs. Those ballasts marked No
PCB’s or PCB Free can be considered as such as should be treated as UW - electronic waste.
All personnel who perform hazardous materials work must be trained and qualified to do so. They must also follow the most current OSHA regulations including 29 CFR 1910.120 and 8 CCR 5192, Hazardous
Waste Operations and Emergency Response, as well as other applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.
5.0 LIMITATIONS & EXCLUSIONS
Quantities and locations are based upon areas that were accessed. Materials similar to those in this report may be present in areas which were not accessed. Because of this, Vista recommends including line-item pricing, allowances, and/or additive/deductive wording to bid sheets for unforeseen conditions.
All material quantities reported herein are rough order of magnitude estimates and should not be used for bidding purposes. All contractors are responsible for accurately determining quantities and locations of materials identified in this report.
The survey performed was limited to representative rooms/areas and did not include access of areas and sampling of materials which would have required large scale destructive testing. Vista made a good faith effort based on accepted industry standards to access all areas in order to assess their potential for having hazardous materials.
