ENVIRONMENTAL RISK MANAGEMENT PROJECT # ERM-11-447

1.0 Executive Summary

Environmental Risk Management was retained by Zeck-Butler Architects to conduct a limited asbestos survey for the Building 2050 Corner Tower Stairwell Sprinkler Installation Project, located at Fairchild Air Force Base, in Fairchild, Washington. The building materials scheduled to be disturbed during the sprinkler installation project were identified by FAFB 92 CES/CEPM. The survey was conducted on July 26th, 2011.

General Building Observations

FAFB Building 2050 is a three-story commercial building approximately 618’ x 406’ in size. The original construction date was approximately 1950. The building is currently utilized as an aircraft hangar with administration offices. The survey included the inspection of the FAFB 92 CES/CEPM -identified corner tower stair landings and the adjacent interior walls for suspect asbestos-containing materials that may be impacted during corner tower stairs sprinkler installation activities. The renovation project will include the installation of sprinkler piping from the adjacent building areas to the corner tower stairwells with anticipated disturbance of stairwell walls. Adjacent building interior walls above the suspended ceiling system and the suspended ceiling tiles may be impacted during sprinkler piping installation. Only the wall and ceiling sampling locations identified by FAFB 92 CES/CEPM were inspected and sampled. The remainder of the building is excluded from the scope of this asbestos survey.

The corner tower stair landings finishes consist of painted concrete walls covered with a splatter texture and a concrete floor. The corner tower stair landing adjacent office areas are finished with sheetrock covered concrete walls covered with a combination of wallpaper, and paint. The ceilings in the corner tower stairs adjacent areas are T-bar metal frame with drop-in ceiling tiles. According to FAFB 92 CES/CEPM, the corner tower stairs sprinkler system will connect to the existing sprinkler system above the suspended ceiling system.

2.0 Introduction

2.1 Purpose

The purpose of the asbestos survey was to provide information identifying the presence of exposed and/or accessible suspect building materials that commonly contain asbestos for removal prior to project area renovation. The building materials scheduled to be disturbed during the renovation project were identified by FAFB 92 CES/CEPM.

2.2 Scope of Work

The scope of work consisted of conducting a visual inspection and sampling survey in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101 and NESHAPS 40 CFR part 61 guidelines to determine the presence of suspected asbestos containing building materials (ACBM) which were exposed and/or accessible.

The bulk samples collected from the project area were analyzed at an accredited laboratory to determine the presence and concentrations of asbestos.

2.3 Authorization

Authorization to perform this survey was given by Zeck-Butler Architects on July 7, 2011.

2.4 Warranty

The field and laboratory results reported herein are considered sufficient in detail and scope to determine the presence of expose and/or accessible suspect asbestos containing building materials in the building at the time of the inspection. Environmental Risk Management warrants that the findings contained herein have been prepared in the general accordance with accepted professional practices at the time of its preparation as applied by similar professionals in the industry. Changes in the state of the art or in applicable regulations cannot be anticipated and have not been addressed in this report.

The survey and analytical methods have been used to provide the client with information regarding the presence of accessible and/or exposed suspect asbestos containing building materials existing in the building at the time of the inspection. There is a distinct possibility that conditions may exist which were not apparent during the site visit. This inspection covered only those areas that were exposed and/or accessible to the inspector.

The investigation is also limited to the information available from the client at the time of the investigation. Should the scope of the renovation project change, Environmental Risk Management recommends that an additional investigation, including but not limited to, a review of the revised scope of work, be performed to determine if asbestos-containing materials or suspect asbestos-containing materials will be impacted. No other warranties are implied or expressed.

3.0 Methodology

3.1 Inspection Procedures

Kevin McCrink, AHERA accredited inspector # BIR-11-037 conducted the asbestos survey. The initial inspection consisted of the inspector walking through the project area of the building in order to determine the general building lay out, draw a site sketch and to determine the presence of exposed and/or reasonably accessible suspect asbestos containing materials. The suspect materials were then grouped into homogenous material groups that were collected during the sampling phase.

3.2 Sampling Procedures

Following the inspection phase, the materials that were identified and grouped into homogenous suspect asbestos materials were then sampled. The sampling was limited to those materials which were exposed and/or accessible and which did not require destructive access in order to sample.

The sampling protocol followed was consistent with the guidelines set forth in OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101 and NESHAPS 40 part 61. Efforts were made to select random sampling locations, but preference was given to damaged or disturbed areas in order to minimize the damage to the building finished surfaces. The sampling and inspection was conducted in the least disruptive manor as possible to the suspect building materials.

A copy of the Inspector’s accreditation can be found in Appendix B.

4.0 Methodology

4.1 Method of Analysis

The analysis of the bulk samples for asbestos was performed by EPA method 600/M4- 82-020. The bulk samples were prepared for visual examination and identification by polarizing light microscopy. Following the preparation of the material on a glass slide the samples were analyzed for asbestos forms of chrysotile, crocidolite, anthophyllite, actinolite/tremolite, amosite and non-asbestos components that totaled 100 % of the sample volume. Asbestos and non-asbestos elements of each sample were identified utilizing, the unique optical properties associated with them. The identification consisted of identifying specific optical and physical characteristics that included refractive indices, color, pleochroism, birefringence, extinction angles, and sign of elongation and morphology. The volume percentage of each component in the sample was determined by visually estimating the percentage.

4.2 Laboratory Quality Assurance

The asbestos bulk samples collected for the building in this project were sent to EMC Laboratories, Inc. located in Phoenix, Arizona for analysis. EMC Laboratories, Inc. is a NVLAP accredited analytical laboratory.

5.0 Findings

5.1 Asbestos Containing Materials

OSHA/EPA defines a material to be an asbestos containing material (ACM) in the material contains greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos. Multiple samples are collected and if one sample out of the homogenous sampling group is found to contain asbestos then the material is determined to be an asbestos containing material.
