RE: Pre- Renovation Asbestos and Lead-In-Paint Reinspection
Building 1867, NZAS 04-1062
Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana
TD&H Project No. 14-260-070
Dear Ms. George, In accordance with your Notice to Proceed, TD&H Engineering, Inc. (TD&H) performed a confirmation-of-materials pre-renovation asbestos inspection and lead-in-paint survey on August
27, 2015, on Building 1867. The inspections were performed in order to confirm that building materials identified during an inspection performed on March 22, 2012, were the same and determine if any renovation of the building since that time may have occurred. Also, interior areas of the south half of the building had been excluded from the original inspection. The original inspection and report were completed by TD&H. The original report, titled "Limited
Asbestos Inspection and Lead-In-Paint Survey, Building 1867 - Weapons Storage Area" dated
April 16, 2012, is contained in Attachment A.
Additional homogeneous areas (HAs) of suspect-for-asbestos building material were identified and sampled during this current reinspection. Homogeneous areas of painted surfaces of building materials appeared to remain the same with no new HAs observed during the current investigation.
ASBESTOS INSPECTION
The Administrative Rules of Montana (ARM) 17.74.354 require an asbestos inspection be completed for all building materials prior to scheduled renovation activities to determine if asbestos-containing building materials (ACBM) are present. The National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP – 40 CFR 61) and the ARM regulate asbestos due to the respiratory hazard that airborne asbestos fibers present. The reinspection was performed by Oran
Grotbo of TD&H, a Montana-accredited asbestos inspector, in accordance with the
APPENDIX A
SPECIFICATION 02 83 33
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) – Asbestos Hazards and Emergency Response Act
(AHERA) regulation 40 CFR 763. Documentation of accreditation is provided in Appendix B.
Building materials were identified, categorized, numbered, and placed into homogeneous areas for sample collection and laboratory analysis. The number of samples collected from building materials identified in the inspection is based on the following:
Surfacing Materials: three samples for surfacing materials between 1 and 1,000 square feet (SF), five samples for surfacing materials between 1,000 and 5,000 SF, seven samples for surfacing materials over 5,000 SF.
Thermal System Insulation: three samples from each homogeneous area (HA) of thermal system insulation, which may include boiler insulation, mudded fittings, and/or expanded vermiculite insulation.
Miscellaneous Materials: At least three samples from each homogeneous area of miscellaneous material, such as floor tile, plaster, sheetrock (drywall), cove base, vinyl floor coverings, concrete, roofing, and brick and mortar.
Patching Materials: At least one sample from each homogeneous area of patching material, such as replacement floor tiles or patching plaster, or materials of less than 3 SF in total area.
Three additional suspect building materials were identified during the inspection. Bulk samples were collected from the building in accordance with the currently recognized standard protocol developed under AHERA. Bulk samples were placed into containers and shipped to Crisp
Analytical, LLC (CA Labs) located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, for analysis using Polarized
Light Microscopy (PLM) in accordance with the EPA Method 600/R4-93-116. CA Labs is accredited through the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) National
Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). The point-counting technique employed by CA Labs in the analysis of these samples has a limit of detection of approximately 0.1 percent by volume.
Results
All building materials described in the 2012 report remain, but two new materials (sheet vinyl flooring and mastic) had been added since the inspection. One existing HA, mudded pipe joint insulation not included in the original 2012 inspection, was sampled in this current investigation.
All HAs from this inspection were analyzed by the laboratory as "None Detected" for asbestos.
The results are shown in Table 1. The analytical reports provided by CA Labs are provided in
Appendix C. Sample identification and locations are shown on Figure 1 in Appendix D.

LEAD-BASED PAINT INSPECTION
A lead-in-paint paint survey was conducted to identify painted components that may require specialized handling to comply with the requirements of OSHA or special disposal under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), which is administered by the EPA. The original 2011 survey and this current survey were performed by an experienced technician with training as a LBP risk assessor. No additional HAs of painted surveys were observed during the current investigation, although additional samples of previously listed HAs from the 2011 report were analyzed to confirm lead content.
Lead-Based Paint
Lead-based paint (LBP) is of concern both as a source of direct exposure through ingestion of paint chips and as a contributor to lead in interior dust and exterior soil. Regulatory agencies, which have addressed lead-based paint, include the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), OSHA, and the Consumer Products
Safety Commission (CPSC). There is no state program for lead.
HUD guidelines define lead-based paint as:
Paint in liquid form which contains 0.06%, by weight, calculated as lead metal in total nonvolatile content of the liquid paint, or
Paint already applied which tests equal to or greater than 1.0 milligrams per square centimeter (mg/cm2) when using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) technology, or 5,000 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) (0.5% by weight) when using atomic absorption spectroscopic analysis (AA).
Lead-Containing Paint (LCP)
The term “lead-containing paint” is used for paint that has lead concentrations at less than the
HUD guidelines or EPA disposal regulations. The OSHA standard for lead in the construction industry does not recognize a minimum safe concentration of lead. If any painted surface has any detectable level of lead, it must be presumed to present an occupational exposure to lead for
APPENDIX A
OSHA-regulated construction work until a negative exposure assessment or exposure monitoring establishes otherwise.
Methods
A Niton X-ray fluoroscope (XRF) was used to test paint for lead. The XRF instrument provided a real concentration of LBP based on the generated spectra and an algorithm programmed into the instrument. The XRF was standardized prior to the start, mid-day, and after the conclusion each day of LBP surveying against lead-based paint standards provided by the manufacturer of the XRF.
Results
None of the sample locations in Building 1867 during this current survey tested positive for LBP, and eight were analyzed as LCP. All sample results are list in Table 2 below. XRF sample locations are contained in Attachment E.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Asbestos
Since all of the samples were analyzed as “none detected,” no further action is required before renovation may begin.
Lead-In-Paint
Work involving components covered with paint containing lead is governed by regulations of the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Disposal of lead, paint containing lead or building materials covered with paint containing lead is governed by regulations of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Environmental Protection Agency. None of the painted surfaces tested positive for lead-based paint. Only the OSHA regulations listed below will apply for locations tested as lead-containing.
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
The OSHA standard for Lead in Construction, 29 CFR 1926, does not recognize a safe level of lead in dried paint to which workers may be exposed in an occupational setting. Consequently, any disturbance to painted surfaces which contain a measurable quantity of lead must be considered as having the potential to create a risk to workers.
The OSHA standard cites a Permissible Exposure Level (PEL) of 50 micrograms of lead per cubic meter of air (μg/m3) and an Action Level (AL) of 30 μg/m3. Any amount above these levels triggers several safety and health provisions, including, but not limited to:
1. A respiratory protection program
2. Personal protective clothing and equipment
3. Changing areas including segregated storage of work and non-work clothing
4. Hand-washing facilities
5. Blood testing
6. Employee training
If an employee is performing any of the following tasks:
1. Manual demolition, dry scraping, or dry sanding
2. Heat gun applications
3. Power tool cleaning
4. Other industrial operations involving lead as specified in the OSHA standard, then all of the above-mentioned safety items must be provided to the employees. If it is found that either the AL or the PEL is being exceeded, then other safety requirements must be met.
A negative exposure assessment (NEA) should be completed on employees that are performing the work. The NEA would document that good work practices are effective in preventing employee exposure to elevated concentrations of airborne lead. The NEA should be performed
APPENDIX A
on the same employees, using the same methods, and using the same tools that will be used for the duration of the project.
LIMITATIONS
This asbestos and lead-in-paint report was prepared based on information gathered during one site visit and results contained in the original 2011 report. The inspection report has been prepared to confirm that information concerning the various types of building materials that were considered suspect for containing asbestos remained the same from the original April 16, 2012, inspection and to inform the owner of any new building materials that may have been identified and tested positive for asbestos.
Most building components were visible and accessible at the time of our site visits. However, additional suspect materials may be encountered during renovation. This asbestos inspection report is intended for use by RSCI and their clients. The scope of services performed by TD&H
Engineering, Inc., may not be appropriate to satisfy the needs of other users, and any use or re-use of this document, or the findings presented herein is at the sole risk of the user.
We appreciate this opportunity to provide these industrial hygiene-consulting services to you and look forward to assisting you through the remainder of the project. Should you have questions or need further clarification about information contained herein, please feel free to contact us at

RE: Limited Asbestos Inspection and Lead-In-Paint Survey
Building 1867 – Weapons Storage Area
TD&H Job Number 11-274-001
Dear Mr. Perpigano, In accordance with your notice to proceed dated November 4, 2011, Thomas, Dean, & Hoskins, Inc.
(TD&H) performed a limited asbestos inspection and lead-based paint survey on March 22, 2012. The surveys were completed for the interior and exterior portions of the building on areas designated by Air
Force personnel as likely to be impacted in a proposed renovation.
BUILDING DESCRIPTION
The building is a single-level slab-on-grade with reinforced concrete and metal walls and roof. The interior floors are covered by rubber floor mats or resilient floor tiles. The walls and ceilings are gypsum wallboard over concrete. The ceiling is covered by drop-in ceiling panels. The exterior walls are either concrete or concrete masonry units (CMUs). The roof is covered with a membrane roofing system.
ASBESTOS INSPECTION
The Administrative Rules of Montana (ARM) 17.74.354 and the National Emissions Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP – 40 CFR 61) require an asbestos inspection be completed for all building materials prior to scheduled renovation or demolition activities to determine if asbestos-containing building materials (ACBM) are present. NESHASP and the ARM regulate asbestos due to the respiratory hazard that airborne asbestos fibers present.
April 12, 2012
The inspections were performed by a Montana-accredited asbestos inspector in accordance with the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) – Asbestos Hazards and Emergency Response Act (AHERA) regulation 40 CFR 763 and ARM 17.74.362 . Documentation of accreditation is provided in Appendix
A.
Building materials were identified, categorized, numbered, and placed into homogeneous areas for sample collection and laboratory analysis. The number of samples collected from building products identified in the inspection is based on the following:
Surfacing Materials (S): three samples for surfacing materials between 1 and 1,000 square feet
(SF), five samples for surfacing materials between 1,000 and 5,000 SF, seven samples for surfacing materials over 5,000 SF.
Thermal System Insulation (T): three samples from each homogeneous area (HA) of thermal system insulation, which may include boiler insulation, mudded fittings, and expanded vermiculite insulation.
Miscellaneous Material (M): At least three samples from each homogeneous area of miscellaneous material, such as ceiling tile, sheetrock (drywall), cove base, electrical wiring insulation, concrete, and brick and mortar.
Seven building materials were identified during the inspection as likely to be impacted during the proposed renovation. Bulk samples were placed into uniquely labeled containers and shipped to Pace
Analytical, Inc in Billings, Montana, for analysis using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) in accordance with the EPA Method 600/R4-93-116. Pace Analytical, Inc is accredited through the
National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation
Program (NVLAP). The limit of detection for this method is approximately 1% by volume.
Findings
There were no HAs determined by laboratory analysis to contain asbestos in quantities greater than 1%.
All HAs were described as “None Detected” by the laboratory and are listed in Table 1 below. The laboratory analytical report provided by Pace Analytical is included in Appendix B. Sample identification and locations are shown on Figure 1 in Appendix C.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Asbestos
No asbestos-containing material was encountered in the area included in this inspection. No asbestos-related procedure is therefore required for the building areas and components included in this survey.
However, since the roof was covered by a one-piece rubber membrane, sampling from this layer or any layers below this membrane was not done. If there are layers of a former roof remaining, then these materials must be assumed to be asbestos-containing until further sampling and testing determines otherwise.
Lead in Paint
Since OSHA does not recognize any safe concentration of lead in paint, if any painted surface has a detectable level of lead, it must be presumed to present an occupational exposure to lead for OSHA-regulated constructions work until a negative exposure assessment or exposure monitoring establishes otherwise. Consequently, any disturbance to painted surfaces which contain a measurable quantity of lead must be considered as having the potential to create a risk to workers.
The OSHA standard cites a Permissible Exposure Level (PEL) of 50 micrograms of lead per cubic meter of air (μg/m ) and an Action Level (AL) of 30 μg/m
. Any amount above these levels triggers several safety and health provisions a contractor must comply with, including, but not limited to:
1. A respiratory protection program
2. Personal protective clothing and equipment
3. Changing areas including segregated storage of work and non-work clothing
4. Hand-washing facilities
5. Blood testing
6. Employee training
If an employee is performing any of the following tasks then all of the above-mentioned safety items must be provided to the employees.
1. Manual demolition, dry scraping, or dry sanding
2. Heat gun applications
3. Power tool cleaning
4. Other industrial operations involving lead as specified in the OSHA standard
Prior to disposal of demolition waste, the EPA under the RCRA hazardous waste program requires that the waste stream be characterized. Sampling of building materials for analysis using the Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) is routinely done to determine if materials are hazardous.
Since there were no testing locations that were above the lead-based paint concentration threshold, then a TCLP analysis is not necessary. TD&H recommends the data contained in this report be made available to the landfill prior to transporting waste with LCP.
LIMITATIONS
This asbestos inspection and lead in paint survey report was prepared based on information gathered during one site visit and interpretations of laboratory analytical results provided by Pace Analytical, Inc.
The inspection report has been prepared to provide information concerning the various types of building materials that were considered suspect for containing asbestos or lead and to inform the owner of the materials that tested positive for asbestos or paint containing lead. Most building components were visible and accessible at the time of our site visits. However, it is possible that additional suspect materials may be encountered during demolition. The roof of Building 1867 was covered by a rubber membrane. There may be additional layers of roofing below this membrane that, if present, would have to be assumed to be asbestos-containing until further sampling and testing determine otherwise.
This asbestos inspection and lead in paint survey report is intended for use by CWG Architects.

Summary of polarizing light microscopy (PLM / Stereomicroscopy bulk asbestos analysis) using the methods described in 40CFR Part 763 Appendix E to Subpart E (Interim and EPA 600 / R-93 / 116 (Improved). The sample is first viewed with the aid of stereomicroscopy. Numerous liquid slide preparations are created for analysis under the polarized microscope where identifications and quantifications are preformed. Calibrated liquid refractive oils are used as liquid mouting medium. These oils are used for identification (dispersion staining). A calibrated visual estimation is reported, should any asbestiform mineral be present. Other techniques such as acid washing are used in conjugation with refractive oils for detection of smaller quantities of asbestos. All asbestos percentages are based on calibrated visual estimation traceable to NIST standards for regulated of asbestos.
Traceability to measurement and calibration is achieved by using known amounts and types of asbestos from standards where analyst and laboratory accuracy are measured. As little as 0.001% asbestos can be detected in favorable samples, while detection in unfavorable samples may approach the detection limit of 0.50% (well above the laboratory definition of trace).

Discussion
Qualifications
Some samples (floor tiles, surfacings, etc.) may contain fibers too small to be delectable by PLM analysis and should be analyzed by TEM bulk protocols.
A "trace asbestos" will be reported if the analyst observes far less than 1% asbestos. CA Labs defines "trace asbestos" as a few fibers detected by the analyst in several preparations and will indicate as such under these circumstances.
Quantification of <1% will actually be reported as <=1% (allowable variance close to 1% is high). Such results are ideal for point counting, and the technique is mandatory for friable samples (NESHAP, Nov. 1990 and clarification letter 8 May 1991) under 1% percent asbestos and the "trace asbestos". In order to make all initial PLM reports issued from CA Labs NESHAP compliant, all <1% asbestos results (except floor tiles) will be point counted at no additional charge.
CA Labs is accredited by the National Voluntary Accreditation Program (NVLAP) for selected test methods for airborne fiber analysis (TEM), and for bulk asbestos fiber analysis (PLM). All analysts have a college degree in a natural science (geology, biology, or environmental science) or are recognized by a state professional board in one these disciplines .Extensive in-house training programs are used to augment education background of the analyst. The group leader of polarized light has received supplemental McCrone Research training for asbestos identification. This report is not covered by the scope of AIHA accreditation. Analysis performed at CA Labs, LLC 12232 Industriplex, Suite 32 Baton Rouge, LA 70809.

Vermiculite containing samples may have trace amounts of actinolite-tremolite, where not found be PLM should be analyzed using TEM methods and / or water separation techniques. Suspected actinolite/vermiculite presence will be indicated through the sample comment section of this report.
Fibrous talc containing samples may even contain a related asbestos fiber known as anthophyllite. Under certain conditions the same fiber may actually contain both talc and anthophyllite (a phenomenon called intergrowth). Again, TEM detection methods are recommended. CA Labs PLM report comments will denote suspected amounts of asbestiform anthophyllite with talc, where further analysis is recommended.
