13) TRACE: The result is reported as Trace when No points are counted and asbestos is identified. For ELAP Trace is < 1%.

2) The Reporting Limit (RL) is the Limit of Quantitation. For point counts the limit of quantitation of 0.25%; based on one asbestos point counter over 400 non-empty points.

3) Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) Definition: > 1% asbestos by weight is considered an ACM

NOTES:

14) ATC Group Services certifies that this report is an accurate and authentic report of the results obtained from the laboratory analysis

15) The uncertainty for these test results is available upon request.

16) ELAP requires method ELAP 198.1 for the analysis of samples containing ≤ 10% vermiculite. For samples containing > 10% vermiculite ELAP requires methods ELAP 198.1 followed by ELAP 198.6.

“This method does not remove vermiculite and may underestimate the level of asbestos present in a sample containing greater than 10% vermiculite.”

PLM Analysis Methodology

The samples were analyzed by industry accepted methods in accordance with EPA1,2 using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) with dispersion staining in conjunction with stereoscopical analysis. Point counts are performed on samples regulated by this agency.

Layered samples should be separated and analyzed individually and the analysis of each layer should be reported.

EPA does not regulate mixed mineral assemblage like the anthophyllite-talc intergrowth that is found in paint and caulking unless these materials contain asbestos in an amount greater than 1%. Anthophyllite detected in paint and caulking samples might be a talc intergrowth.

ATC has the capability of performing TEM confirmation if so desired.

Bulk sample reports are checked and reviewed two times. Unused portions of samples are archived for two months unless client requests special handling. This report must not be used by the client to claim product endorsement by NIST or any agency of the U.S.

government.

ATC is not responsible for sample collection and analytical procedures not performed by our laboratory. This report may not be reproduced in part without the laboratory permission.

ATC will not be liable for analytical results from samples that are not prepared according to the standard methods used by the laboratory (e.g. composite samples from different locations, samples with insufficient volumes, straight TEM samples without gravimetric procedures, dust samples).

Laboratory Equipment

Laboratory analyses were accomplished utilizing Olympus BH-2 Microscopes for PLM analyses and the JEOL model JEM-100CXII-2 for TEM analyses.

Quality Control

ATC is accredited by NVLAP (Lab Code 101187-0) for bulk and air fiber analyses. ATC participates in the Bulk Asbestos Sample Quality Assurance Programs for NVLAP and maintains an in-house QC/QA program for bulk samples whereby 10% of all submitted samples are reanalyzed and results are documented. ATC also participates in a quarterly round robin QC/QA program for bulk samples with several accredited laboratories throughout the United States. Current and past QC/QA program results are available in the laboratory for inspection.

Accuracy and Precision

The phase abundances provided by point count may be considered within the limits of variability inherent in the method employed. For point counts the detection limit of 0.25% is based on one asbestos point counted over 400 non-empty points. If no points are counted and asbestos is identified, the result will be reported as trace.

The analyses were supervised by Milena Bonezzi, Director of Laboratory Services, who has extensive experience in asbestos analysis by PLM and other methods. Please contact me regarding any questions relating to these materials at 212-353-8280.
