RE: Asbestos Building Inspection/Survey – Santa Rosa Location 606 Healdsburg Avenue Santa Rosa, CA 94501

Dear Mr. Lacap, The following report is in regards to the building inspection conducted at the above-listed address. Of the thirteen (13) suspected asbestos containing samples collected four (4) were found to contain asbestos containing construction materials (ACCM). Justin Gardner, Certified Site Surveillance Technician, working under the supervision of Anthony M.

De Arcos, Certified Asbestos Consultant and Registered Environmental Property Assessor for National Analytical Laboratories, Inc. (N.A.L.), conducted the inspection on December 15, 2018.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS -

Based on the sample results, the 12" Tan/Brown Streaked Floor Tile and the Black Mastic were found to contain ACCM.

Note that the lobby was also checked and found to have terrazzo tile under the carpet and was in not suspect for testing.

ASBESTOS INSPECTION –

The inspection was completed according to the EPA’s Asbestos Containing Building Materials (ACBM) In-Schools Rule; 40 CFR 763.85 (Inspection and Re-Inspection). Currently, EPA regulations classify ACBM as materials containing more than 1-percent (1%) of asbestos. Cal- OSHA currently regulates asbestos to 1/10th of 1% (0.1%) and requires that a certified asbestos worker conduct this work.

Upon completion of the visual inspection, the suspect asbestos bulk sample materials were collected in accordance with EPA and OSHA protocol. They were placed into new, airtight, plastic bags, sealed, and identified with unique identification numbers. The bulk samples were transported to the laboratory under the chain of custody protocol for analysis.

No destructive, only renovation sampling was conducted during the site visit, in the event that future renovation and/or demolition work reveals any unforeseen suspect materials; the contractor shall contact the project manager for further testing.

EMSL Analytical, Inc. (EMSL) in Carle Place, New York, analyzed the bulk suspect asbestos containing samples utilizing the Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) Method. National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) Certification #10148-10 and California Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (CAELAP) Certification #2339, certifies EMSL.

Although not all the rooms or materials throughout the site were sampled, the like materials that were not tested will be treated as homogeneous to the materials that were tested and will be considered as containing ACCM or Non-ACCM in accordance to the results.

The location and results of suspect samples found to contain ACCM are as follows:

Sample ID# Material Location Category Results

606-5B 12" Tan/Brown Streaked Floor Tile

Conference Room 112 - Southwest Area Floor (Second Layer) (-10,000sf)

I Homogenous to Sample 5C

606-5C Black Mastic Conference Room 112 - Southwest Area Floor (Bottom Layer) (-10,000sf)

I 5% Chrysotile

606-6A 12" Tan/Brown Streaked Floor Tile

Corridor At Redwood Empire Room - Southeast Area Floor (Under Carpet Tile)

I *Trace, <1% Chrysotile

606-6B Black Mastic Corridor At Redwood Empire Room - Southeast Area Floor (Bottom Layer)

I 10% Chrysotile sf = Square Feet; Category I & II are Non-friable/Non-hazardous Materials. Approximate sample locations are depicted in a sample map attached.

Based on the regulatory requirements by the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), Regulation 40 CFR, Part 61, Subpart M the following must occur “If the asbestos content is less than 10 percent, verification shall be made using the point counting method specified in Appendix A, Subpart F, 40 CFR Part 763, Section 1.7.2.4, Polarized Light Microscopy, Qualification of Asbestos Content.”

The 12" Tan/Brown Streaked Floor Tile and Black Mastic are considered Category I, non-friable/non-hazardous materials that can be removed and disposed of at a non-hazardous waste facility.

ASBESTOS RECOMMENDATION –

Federal and state regulations require that anyone disturbing asbestos containing materials are properly trained certified and have the required respiratory protection and medical surveillance.

IFB No. 114602

ATTACHMENT A-3

N.A.L recommends that a certified asbestos abatement contractor be retained to remove the non-friable and trace materials prior to any scheduled renovation/demolition work being completed at the site.
