EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Enprotec / Hibbs & Todd, Inc. (eHT) was authorized by Dyess Air Force Base (Dyess AFB) to perform an asbestos survey of the Building (Bldg.) to be Demoed, located at 382 4th Avenue (Ave.), Dyess AFB, Texas.

Based on the assessment results, the following suspect asbestos containing materials (ACM) homogeneous areas were identified:

• Painted Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) Block, located in the interior of the bldg. on the perimeter walls throughout;

• Carpet Mastic (yellow), located in carpet areas throughout;

• Drywall Gypsum Board (DWGB) with Texture (orange peel) and Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the east half of the bldg.;

• 12” Adhered Ceiling Tile with Mastic Buttons (brown), located in east half of bldg.;

• 4” Ceramic Wall Tile with Grout, located in the restrooms;

• 1” Ceramic Floor Tile with Grout, located in the restrooms;

• Suspended Acoustic Tile (SAT), located spotted throughout the east and west halves of the bldg.;

• DWGB with Texture (smooth) and Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the west half of the bldg.;

• Brick Mortar, located on exterior veneer; and

• Floor Tile with Mastic (black), located under carpet throughout the bldg.

The Asbestos Survey was performed on August 12, 2025, by Donnie Windland, Asbestos Consultant, license number 105844, expiration date 09/10/26. Thirty (30) bulk samples of suspected asbestos containing building materials (ACBMs) were collected and submitted to the laboratory for analysis.

Based on the laboratory results, the following samples contained one percent (1%) or greater of asbestos and the represented material is considered ACBMs. If a homogeneous material has one or more samples that test positive for asbestos, then all samples for that homogeneous material, are considered ACM:

• 022, 023, 024 – DWGB with ACM Texture (smooth) and ACM Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the west half of the bldg.; and

• 028, 029, 030 – ACM Floor Tile with ACM Mastic (black), located under carpet throughout the bldg.

Asbestos Survey Page 2 August 2025

The DWGB with ACM Texture (smooth) and ACM Joint Compound is classified as a Category II non-friable ACM in accordance with National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP). There is a total of approximately 2,300 square feet (sq. ft.) of the DWGB with ACM Texture (smooth) and ACM Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the west half of the bldg.

The ACM Floor Tile with ACM Mastic (black) is classified as a Category I non-friable ACM in accordance with NESHAP. There is a total of approximately 2,220 sq. ft. of the ACM Floor Tile with ACM Mastic (black), located under carpet throughout the bldg.

The laboratory reports are presented in Appendix B. A table presenting the laboratory results is presented in the Tables Section.

Enprotec / Hibbs & Todd, Inc. recommends the following actions:

• Prior to demolition or renovation activities, ACBMs in the areas to be disturbed should be abated by a qualified asbestos abatement contractor under monitoring and supervision of a qualified asbestos consultant.

• Tenants, employees, maintenance personnel, contractors, and others that could potentially disturb asbestos during the course of their duties should be notified of the presence and location of asbestos in accordance with Texas Department of State Health Services (TDSHS) Occupational Safety and Health Agency (OSHA) regulations, 25 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) 296.191 (A) and 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1926.1101, respectively.

• Any suspect building materials not sampled in this assessment that are encountered during demolition activities should be sampled and tested for possible asbestos content by qualified personnel prior to continuation of demolition activities.

1.0 INTRODUCTION:

1.1 Client/Facility Location

eHT was authorized by Dyess AFB to perform an asbestos survey of the Bldg. to be Demoed, located at 382 4th Ave., Dyess AFB, Texas.

1.2 Scope of Work:

In general, the scope of work included the performance of an asbestos survey on all accessible suspect ACBMs associated with the materials of the bldg. that may be disturbed during any renovation or demolition activities. The inspection was performed on August 12, 2025.

1.3 Regulatory Standards:

This study was conducted based on the Final Rules for Asbestos Exposure in General Industry and Construction, issued August 10, 1994. An employer or owner may demonstrate that Presumed Asbestos Containing Material (PACM) (includes thermal system insulation, sprayed-on or troweled-on surfacing material and debris in work areas where such material is present) does not contain asbestos by having an inspection conducted pursuant to the requirements of Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) (40 CFR 763, Subpart E). Such tests shall include analysis of a minimum of three (3) bulk samples of each homogenous area of PACM collected in a randomly distributed manner. The tests, evaluation, and sample collection shall be performed by an accredited inspector or by a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH). The employer/building owner may demonstrate that flooring material, including associated mastic and backing, does not contain asbestos, based upon recognized analytical techniques (point counting) showing that the material is asbestos free (contains <1% of asbestos).

State and Federal regulations require an asbestos survey to be performed prior to renovation or demolition of a public or commercial building. Renovation and demolition will disturb building materials and the asbestos materials likely to be disturbed must be removed by a qualified (i.e., certified and licensed) asbestos abatement contractor under monitoring and supervision of a qualified asbestos consultant.

Asbestos Survey Page 4 August 2025

Federal and State regulations only allow asbestos material to remain in-place during demolition activities under certain circumstances. The circumstances are: 1) a building is declared to be structurally unsound and in danger of collapse; or 2) regulated materials are removed, leaving only certain non-friable materials in-place. Regulated asbestos-containing materials (RACMs) are ACMs that are friable or may become friable during demolition.

Materials that may remain in-place include gaskets, packings, and asphalt roofing materials that are not friable and are not in poor condition (Category 1 Non-Friable ACM), as well as other non-friable materials (Category II Non-Friable ACM) that do not have a high probability of becoming or have not already become crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by forces expected to act on the Material in the course of demolition activities.

According to NESHAP [40 CFR 61.145(A)(3)], a building may be demolished with friable and non-friable ACMs in-place if the facility is being demolished under an order of a State or Local government agency, issued because the facility is structurally unsound and in danger of imminent collapse. Texas Asbestos Health Protection Rules (TAHPR) similarly stated in 25 TAC 296.251(o), “The judgement that a structure is in danger of imminent collapse or that it is unsafe for anyone to enter shall be made by a professional engineer, registered architect, or government official and as such the building would no longer meet the requirements of a public building” [25 TAC 296.21(74)(F)]. Leaving the ACMs requires the use of wet demolition techniques and proper disposal of all the resulting debris as asbestos waste.

1.4 Field Methods:

Prior to collecting bulk samples of suspect ACBM, distinct homogeneous sampling areas and specific sampling sites were defined. A homogeneous sample area can be defined as a material that is similar in appearance, color, and generally having the same episode of installation as surrounding alike material. Attempts were made in all cases to obtain representative samples of like materials, as this is the most cost-effective method for determination of ACBM. It should be assumed by the building owner, contractor, and the abatement contractors that the compositions of like materials in a single homogeneous area are the same.

Asbestos Survey Page 5 August 2025

As the suspect ACBM was located and identified, bulk samples were obtained and placed in labeled individual containers. The sample identification number on the containers directly corresponds with the numbers listed on the Chain-of-Custody (COC) and laboratory reports presented in Appendix B. In the event that during any renovation or demolition, any suspect material is encountered behind any walls or other areas that were not accessible at the time this survey was conducted, samples of these suspect materials should be collected and analyzed by qualified asbestos inspectors and laboratories, respectively.

1.5 Assessment of Suspect ACBM:

In accordance with AHERA (October 30, 1986), verified or assumed ACBM discovered in an inspection or reinspection of a facility shall be assessed in view of past, present, or future likelihood of disturbance and may include the following:

• Location of material present;

• Condition of material: type of damage; severity of damage; and the extent or spread of damage;

• Accessibility of the materials;

• Potential for disturbance of the material;

• Known or suspected causes of damage (i.e., air erosion, vandalism, service or repair, vibration, and water);

• Preventative measures which might eliminate the possibility of undamaged ACBM from being significantly damaged; and

• Actions to be taken to protect human health.

1.5.1 Classification of ACBM: Verified ACBM are classified into one of the following categories:

• Damaged ACBM thermal system insulation;

• Significantly damaged ACBM thermal system insulation;

• Damaged friable surfacing ACBM;

• Significantly damaged friable surfacing ACBM;

• Damaged friable miscellaneous ACBM;

Asbestos Survey Page 6 August 2025

• Significantly damaged friable miscellaneous ACBM;

• ACBM with potential for damage;

• ACBM with potential for significant damage; and

• Remaining ACBM not fitting into categories above.

ACBM is defined as friable if the material contains 1% or greater asbestos that, when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.

Friable materials are more likely to become airborne, thereby increasing the potential for health hazards.

1.5.2 Prioritization: The ACBM is usually examined and prioritized according to condition, location, potential for damage, and potential or fiber release. The priorities are usually divided into the following categories:

• Low Hazard - Those non-friable materials in good condition with low potential for disturbance (L).

• Moderate Hazard - Those currently non-friable or friable materials in good physical condition that have a moderate potential for disturbance or damage to make them friable and release asbestos fibers into the air (M).

• High Hazard - Those friable or non-friable materials that have become friable in poor physical condition and/or likely to be disturbed by air currents, water damage, construction, or other activities which could distribute airborne asbestos fibers (H).

• Immediate Hazard - Those friable or non-friable materials that have become friable, that are significantly damaged, have released material, and/or are highly likely to expose unprotected persons (I).

1.6 Laboratory Methods:

A total of 30 bulk samples were collected from the facility and were analyzed. Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) methods were utilized with dispersion-staining techniques according to US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method EPA 600/R-93/116. This type of analysis requires the microscopist to take a portion of the bulk sample and treat it with a

Asbestos Survey Page 7 August 2025 special light-refractive oil emulsion stain. This prepared slide is then subjected to a variety of tests while being viewed under varying polarization of light.

Each type of asbestos is determined by visual estimation. Even though this is estimation, any material that contains 1% or greater than 1% of any type of asbestos using the PLM method is considered an ACBM and must be handled according to OSHA and EPA regulations, if disturbed.

Friable materials may be reanalyzed using the objective point counting method. (Asbestos NESHAP Revision Final Rule to CFR 61.141). The point counting method shall take precedent when different to the standard PLM method.

The samples were submitted to Moody Labs in Farmers Branch, Texas for analysis. This laboratory is a National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) accredited laboratory and licensed by the TDSHS.

1.7 Response Actions:

The following four (4) basic response actions are options for each type of ACBM:

• Operations and Maintenance - Requires maintenance of the material in an undamaged condition. This includes the repair or removal of damaged materials, record keeping, worker training, re-inspection, prevalent level air monitoring, and documentation in a comprehensive Operations and Maintenance Program (O&M) specific to the building.

• Encapsulation - Requires sealing of the exposed surface of the ACBM with a bridging-type encapsulant or conversion from a friable to non-friable status with penetrating type encapsulant. Encapsulation work must be conducted under conditions which control the release of asbestos fibers into the building areas.

• Enclosure - Requires isolation of the ACBM behind or within air-tight barriers of gypsum wallboard, plyboard, etc. Enclosure work must be conducted under conditions which control the release of asbestos fibers into the building areas.

• Removal - Requires removal and disposal of the ACBM under full asbestos abatement conditions by licensed asbestos abatement contractors.

Asbestos Survey Page 8 August 2025

2.0 Survey Findings:

The following findings are based on site investigations performed on August 12, 2025. This asbestos survey was performed in accordance with the Texas Asbestos Health Protection Rules, 25 TAC 296.191).

The following materials were identified as suspect ACBM or PACM:

• Painted CMU Block, located in the interior of the bldg. on the perimeter walls throughout;

• Carpet Mastic (yellow), located in carpet areas throughout;

• DWGB with Texture (orange peel) and Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the east half of the bldg.;

• 12” Adhered Ceiling Tile with Mastic Buttons (brown), located in east half of bldg.;

• 4” Ceramic Wall Tile with Grout, located in the restrooms;

• 1” Ceramic Floor Tile with Grout, located in the restrooms;

• SAT, located spotted throughout the east and west halves of the bldg.;

• DWGB with Texture (smooth) and Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the west half of the bldg.;

• Brick Mortar, located on exterior veneer; and

• Floor Tile with Mastic (black), located under carpet throughout the bldg.

Materials observed but were not suspected of containing asbestos were not sampled. The non-sampled materials included fiberglass insulation, metal products, glass materials, plastic products, rubber products, and wood materials. A table presenting a summary of the ACMs is presented as Table 1 in the Tables Section.

The facility was viewed at 382 4th Ave., Dyess AFB, Texas on August 12, 2025. A total of 30 bulk samples of suspected ACBM materials were collected at this location. The laboratory reports are presented in Appendix B.

2.1 Laboratory Results:

Based on the laboratory results, the following samples contained 1% or greater of asbestos and the represented material is considered ACBMs. If a homogeneous material has one or more samples that test positive for asbestos, then all samples for that homogeneous material, are considered ACM:

Asbestos Survey Page 9 August 2025

• 022, 023, 024 – DWGB with ACM Texture (smooth) and ACM Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the west half of the bldg.; and

• 028, 029, 030 – ACM Floor Tile with ACM Mastic (black), located under carpet throughout the bldg.

The DWGB with ACM Texture (smooth) and ACM Joint Compound is classified as a Category II non-friable ACM in accordance with NESHAP. There is a total of approximately 2,300 sq. ft. of the DWGB with ACM Texture (smooth) and ACM Joint Compound, located on walls throughout in the west half of the bldg.

The ACM Floor Tile with ACM Mastic (black) is classified as a Category I non-friable ACM in accordance with NESHAP. There is a total of approximately 2,220 sq. ft. of the ACM Floor Tile with ACM Mastic (black), located under carpet throughout the bldg.

3.0 RECOMMENDATIONS:

• Prior to demolition or renovation activities, ACBMs in the areas to be disturbed should be abated by a qualified asbestos abatement contractor under monitoring and supervision of a qualified asbestos consultant.

• Tenants, employees, maintenance personnel, contractors, and others that could potentially disturb asbestos during the course of their duties should be notified of the presence and location of asbestos in accordance with TDSHS and OSHA regulations, 25 TAC 296.191 (A) and 29 CFR 1926.1101, respectively.

• Any suspect building materials not sampled in this assessment encountered during demolition activities should be sampled and tested for possible asbestos content by qualified personnel prior to continuation of demolition activities.
