7.0 Recommendations

Asbestos was not identified in the GWB or joint compound of the Room 205 east wall. Exterior asbestos is present in the roofing system and within black sealant observed at the northwest end of the building. The black sealant was not observed elsewhere, however this may be due to the material being painted. The condition of the ACM identified is good and presents no hazard if left undisturbed. Roofing and sealant materials containing asbestos are considered Category I materials under 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M. The removal of these materials is considered a Class II abatement task as specified in 29 CFR 1926.1101. If future renovation activities require disturbing these materials, trained asbestos abatement workers with worker protection should be employed.

Paint that was confirmed to contain lead was observed in poor condition. Due to the industrial building use, absence of children, and ability to provide interim control measures if necessary, the LBP may be left in place as it is unlikely to present an immediate health hazard. Interim control measures (namely repainting with non-LBP) may be implemented if paint deterioration continues. If renovation activity requires disturbing LBP materials, workers should refrain from sanding, abrasive blasting, grinding, or torch cutting LBP materials. Removal of most LBP materials can likely be accomplished by removing structural fasteners without causing LBP disturbance.

A representative Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) composite of LBP materials should be completed for hazardous waste characterization. Typically, unless a landfill has a specific exemption, LBP materials with <5.0 ug/L may be disposed of as general construction debris. Due to the LBP concentration, recycling of the lead flashing rings around the roof pipes may be a cost effective alternative.
