About this file
This document is a Limited Hazardous Building Materials Inspection Report prepared by Fuss & O'Neill, Inc. for the City of Meriden, Connecticut, focusing on the property located at 261 Cook Avenue. The inspection was conducted from May 28-30, 2025, to assess hazardous materials prior to a planned demolition. The comprehensive inspection included detailed examinations for asbestos-containing materials (ACM), lead-based paint (LBP), and potential polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Key findings revealed the presence of asbestos in 9"x9" floor tiles, lead-based paint on various exterior and interior building components, and potential PCB-containing materials in window caulking and glazing compounds.
The report identifies specific waste characterization requirements and potential hazardous waste disposal considerations. Notably, the TCLP (Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure) analysis indicated that exterior building materials would be classified as hazardous waste, while the entire building's waste stream would not be considered hazardous. The boiler ash sample was determined to be hazardous waste for disposal purposes, with multiple metal analytes exceeding RCRA allowable levels. These findings are critical for the accompanying state and local contract opportunity (B026-07) for demolition and disposal of the building, which requires a qualified contractor with a Class A Demolition License to safely remove the structure and manage the hazardous materials identified in this inspection report.

1 Introduction
On May 28-30, 2025, Fuss & O’Neill, Inc. (Fuss & O’Neill) representatives Stacy Vanderveer and Craig Cyr performed a hazardous building materials inspection for the proposed demolition at 261 Cook Avenue, Meriden, Connecticut (the “Site”). The work was conducted for the City of Meriden (the “Client”) in accordance with our written scope of services dated May 9, 2025, and is subject to the limitations included in Appendix A.
The inspection included the following: asbestos-containing material (ACM) inspection, lead-based paint (LBP) determination, and inventory of Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) source materials
This hazardous building materials inspection was performed in response to the proposed demolition activities and included the entire building, including exterior and roof.
This inspection was not limited to non-invasive and discrete sampling techniques. Specific areas that were not inspected include the following: within mechanical equipment and spaces beneath floor slabs.
We have excluded collection and analysis of building materials for PCBs. Sampling for PCBs is presently not mandated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); however, significant liability risk for disposing of PCB-containing wastes exists. Recent knowledge of PCBs within these matrices has become more prevalent, especially with remediation contractors, waste haulers, and disposal facilities. Many property Owners have become subject to large changes in schedule, scope, and costs as a result of failure to identify this possible contaminant prior to renovation or demolition.
1.1 Building and Mechanical System Description
The building structure includes three stories with a full basement and was reportedly constructed in 1905. The building contains approximately 4,470 square feet (SF) of total floor area. According to City of Meriden records, renovations to the building have been conducted at various times. The building is heated by two separate oil-fired hot water boiler systems.
2 Asbestos Inspection
A property Owner must ensure that a thorough ACM inspection is performed prior to possible disturbance of suspect ACM during renovation or demolition activities. This is a requirement of the EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) regulation located at Title 40 CFR, Part 61, Subpart M.
On May 28, 2025, Ms. Stacy Vanderveer and Mr. Craig Cyr of Fuss & O’Neill conducted the inspection. Mr. Cyr conducted supplemental sampling on May 30, 2025. Ms. Vanderveer and Mr. Cyr are both State of Connecticut Department of Public Health (CTDPH) licensed Asbestos Inspectors. Refer to Appendix B for the Asbestos
Inspector licenses and accreditations.
2.1 Methodology
The inspection was conducted by visually inspecting for suspect ACM and touching each of the suspect materials.
The suspect materials were categorized into three EPA NESHAP groups: friable and non-friable Category I and Category II type ACM.
F:\P2017\0932\C89\Deliverables\Report\LtdHazardousBldgMaterialsInspection_Revised_20250612.docx 2
A Friable Material is defined as material that contains greater than 1 percent (> 1%) asbestos that when dry can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.
A Category I Non-Friable Material refers to material that contains > 1% asbestos (i.e., packings, gaskets, resilient floor coverings, and asphalt roofing products) that when dry cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.
A Category II Non-Friable Material refers to any non-friable material excluding Category I materials that contain > 1% asbestos that when dry, cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.
The suspect ACM were also categorized into their applications including Thermal System Insulation (TSI), Surfacing ACM (S), and Miscellaneous ACM (M). TSI includes those materials used to prevent heat loss/gain or water condensation on mechanical systems. Examples of TSI are pipe insulation, boiler insulation, duct insulation, and mudded pipe fitting insulations. Surfacing ACM includes those ACM that are applied by spray, trowel, or otherwise applied to an existing surface. Surfacing ACM is commonly used for fireproofing, decorative, and acoustical applications. Miscellaneous materials include those ACM not listed as thermal or surfacing, such as linoleum, vinyl asbestos flooring, ceiling tiles, caulking compounds, glues, construction adhesives, etc.
The EPA recommends collecting suspect ACM samples in a manner sufficient to determine asbestos content and to segregate each suspect type of homogeneous (similar in color, texture, and date of application) materials. The EPA NESHAP regulation does not specifically identify a minimum number of samples to be collected for each homogeneous material, but the NESHAP regulation does recommend the use of sampling protocols included in Title 40 CFR, Part 763, Subpart E: Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA).
The EPA AHERA regulation requires a specific number of samples be collected based on the type of material and quantity present. This regulation includes the following protocol:
1. Surfacing Materials (S) (i.e., plasters, spray-applied fireproofing, etc.) must be collected in a randomly distributed manner representing each homogeneous area based on the overall quantity represented by the sampling as follows:
a. Three (3) samples collected from each homogeneous area that is less than or equal to 1,000 square feet.
b. Five (5) samples collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than 1,000 square feet but less than or equal to 5,000 square feet.
c. Seven (7) samples collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than 5,000 square feet.
2. Thermal System Insulation (TSI) (i.e., pipe insulations, tank insulations, etc.) must be collected in a randomly distributed manner representing each homogeneous area. Three (3) samples must be collected from each material. Also, a minimum of one (1) sample of any patching materials applied to TSI presuming the patched area is less than 6 linear or square feet should be collected.
3. Miscellaneous materials (M) (i.e., floor tile, gaskets, construction mastics, etc.) should have a minimum of two (2) samples collected for each type of homogeneous material. Sample collection was conducted in a manner sufficient to determine asbestos content of the homogeneous material as determined by the inspector.
F:\P2017\0932\C89\Deliverables\Report\LtdHazardousBldgMaterialsInspection_Revised_20250612.docx 3
The inspectors collected samples of those suspect ACM anticipated to be disturbed by the proposed demolition activities and prepared a proper chain of custody form for transmission of the samples to Scientific Analytical
Institute (SAI) for analysis. SAI is a State of Connecticut-licensed and American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA)-accredited asbestos laboratory. The sample locations, material type, sample identification, and asbestos content are identified by bulk sample analysis in Table 1 attached hereto. Suspect ACM not listed in the table that may be identified later at the Site, should be assumed to be ACM until sample collection and analysis indicate otherwise. Initial asbestos sample analysis was conducted using the EPA Interim Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials (EPA/600/R-93/116) via Polarized Light Microscopy with Dispersion Staining
(PLM/DS).
If samples of suspect materials could not be collected or were inaccessible but observed elsewhere, these materials were assumed to contain asbestos and the inspectors approximated quantities. The exterior and roof were not included in the scope of work for this comprehensive inspection. Also, intrusive or destructive investigative techniques were performed at the Site to access and observe concealed areas that may have had suspect ACM that were hidden or obstructed from normal view. Hard enclosures or obstructed areas typically include, but are not limited to, the following:
Wall cavities;
Pipe chases;
Spaces above fixed ceilings;
Areas behind equipment (including freezers and refrigeration units);
Vapor/moisture barrier under floors.
Subsurface investigations including, but not limited to, concrete foundations were not performed. Also, Fuss & O’Neill did not conduct subsurface investigations to identify suspect cementitious pipe throughout the Site.
2.2 Results
Utilizing the EPA protocol and criteria, the following materials were determined to contain asbestos:
9”x9” floor tile (under sheet flooring)
The following materials were identified as containing asbestos at less than one percent (< 1%):
Gray interior caulking compound on storm windows Black mastic associated with green 9” x 9” floor tiles
White/gray original window glazing compound
Refer to Table 1 for a complete list of ACM and non-ACM sampled as part of this comprehensive inspection.
Refer to Table 2 attached hereto for the identified ACM inventory. Refer to Appendix C for the asbestos laboratory report and chain of custody forms. Refer to Appendix D for the Sample Location Diagrams and Site photographs.
2.3 Discussion
The EPA and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) define a material that contains greater than one percent (> 1%) asbestos, utilizing PLM/DS, as being an ACM. The CTDPH defines any material that
F:\P2017\0932\C89\Deliverables\Report\LtdHazardousBldgMaterialsInspection_Revised_20250612.docx 4 contains equal to or greater than one percent (≥ 1%) asbestos, utilizing PLM/DS, as being an ACM. Materials that are identified as "none detected" are specified as not containing asbestos.
Suspect ACM not identified during this inspection should be presumed to contain asbestos until sample collection and laboratory analysis indicate otherwise.
Additionally, the EPA has suggested that materials that are non-friable organically bound (NOB) materials (e.g., asphaltic-based materials, adhesives, etc.) are recommended for further confirmatory analysis utilizing
Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). None of the collected samples were recommended to be analyzed by
TEM.
2.4 Conclusions and Recommendations
Based on visual observations, sample collection, and laboratory analysis, asbestos has been identified in some of the materials sampled at the Site.
Prior to disturbance, ACM that would likely be impacted by the proposed demolition activities must first be abated by a state-licensed Asbestos Abatement Contractor. This is a requirement of CTDPH and EPA NESHAP regulations governing asbestos abatement.
Due to the inability to effectively separate some types of multi-layered ACM (e.g., floor tiles and mastics, etc.)
from non-ACM, these materials are considered asbestos-contaminated and must be managed as ACM for the purposes of removal and disposal.
Fuss & O’Neill recommends that a comprehensive scope of work and technical specifications be developed as part of demolition plans for the Site.
Suspect materials encountered during demolition that are not identified in this report as being non-ACM should be presumed to be ACM until sample collection and laboratory analysis indicate otherwise. Prior to renovation/demolition that may disturb hidden/inaccessible areas, we recommend conducting a supplemental asbestos inspection of these areas and spaces: below the slab.
Fuss & O’Neill recommends that if any ACM are to remain in the building following renovation/demolition activities, the materials should be managed in-place under a written Operations and Maintenance Program in accordance with OSHA regulations.
This report is not intended to be utilized as a bidding document or as a project specification document. The report is designed to aid the Client in locating identified ACM.
3 Lead-Based Paint Determination
On May 28, 2025, Ms. Stacy Vanderveer of Fuss & O’Neill performed a lead-based paint (LBP) determination associated with coated building components at the Site that may be disturbed during demolition activities. An x-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer was used to perform the LBP determination. The determination was conducted in accordance with generally accepted industry standards for non-residential buildings.
F:\P2017\0932\C89\Deliverables\Report\LtdHazardousBldgMaterialsInspection_Revised_20250612.docx 5
3.1 Methodology
A Heuresis Pb200i handheld XRF lead paint analyzer, serial number 2171, was utilized for the LBP determination.
The instrument was checked for proper calibration prior to use as detailed by the manufacturer and the Performance Characteristic Sheet (PCS) developed for the instruments.
For the purpose of this LBP determination, representative building components were tested as part of this pre-demolition study. Individual repainting efforts are not discoverable in such a limited program. LBP issues involving properties that are not residential are regulated to a limited degree for worker protection relating to paint-disturbing work activities and waste disposal.
Worker protection is regulated by OSHA regulations, as well as CTDPH regulations. These regulations involve air monitoring of workers to determine exposure levels when disturbing lead-containing paint. An LBP determination cannot determine a safe level of lead but is intended to provide guidance for implementing industry standards for lead in paint at identified locations. Contractors may then better determine exposure of workers to airborne lead by understanding the different concentrations of LBP activities that disturb paint on representative surfaces.
The EPA Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as well as the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (CTDEEP), regulate disposal of lead-containing waste. Lead-containing materials that will be impacted during renovation or demolition activities and result in waste for disposal must either be analyzed using the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) analysis if lead is determined to be present in non-residential buildings or be presumed as a hazardous waste. A TCLP sample is a representative sample of the intended waste stream. The results are compared to a threshold value of 5.0 milligrams per liter (mg/L);
results equal to or exceeding this value are considered hazardous lead waste. If the result is below the established level, the material is not considered hazardous and may be disposed as general construction debris.
A level of LBP equal to or exceeding 1.0 milligrams of lead per square centimeter (mg/cm2) by XRF is considered toxic or dangerous for compliance with residential standards. For the purpose of this LBP determination the level of 1.0 mg/cm2 has been utilized as a threshold for areas where possible worker exposures may occur.
3.2 XRF Determination Results
The LBP determination indicated consistent painting trends associated with representative building components that may be impacted by potential demolition work. The following building components were determined to contain levels of lead (equal to or greater than 1.0 mg/cm2) by XRF:
Exterior metal fire escape Exterior wood door components Exterior wood porch components
Exterior wood soffits Exterior wood siding Exterior and interior wood window components
Interior metal door frame (basement) Interior plaster walls & ceiling (at stairs & 1st floor kitchen)
Refer to Appendix E for the XRF lead determination field data sheets.
F:\P2017\0932\C89\Deliverables\Report\LtdHazardousBldgMaterialsInspection_Revised_20250612.docx 6
3.3 Discussion
OSHA published a Lead in Construction Standard (OSHA Lead Standard) Title 29 CFR, Part 1926.62 in May 1993. The OSHA Lead Standard has no set limit for the content of lead in paint below which the standards do not apply. The OSHA Lead Standards are task based and derived from airborne exposure and blood lead levels.
The results of this LBP determination are intended to provide guidance to contractors for occupational lead exposure controls. Building components coated with lead levels above industry standards may cause exposures to lead above OSHA standards during proposed demolition and renovation activities. The results of this determination are also intended to provide insight into waste disposal requirements, in accordance with EPA RCRA regulations. A TCLP sample to characterize the expected waste that may result from demolition work was collected as part of this inspection.
3.4 Conclusion and Recommendations
Based on our LBP determination results, LBP is present on coated building components located on or in the building that were tested by XRF as part of this inspection.
Contractors must be made aware that OSHA has not established a level of lead in a material below which Title 29 CFR, Part 1926.62 does not apply. Contractors shall comply with exposure assessment criteria, interim worker protection, and other requirements of the regulation as necessary to protect workers during any demolition work that will impact lead paint.
If disturbed by renovation or demolition activities, LBP-coated building components should be segregated from the general waste stream for sample collection and analysis by TCLP to determine proper off-site waste disposal.
Fuss & O’Neill collected a representative sample for TCLP analysis; refer to Section 4. If disturbed and managed off-site, non-porous LBP-coated building materials (i.e., metals) may be segregated and recycled as scrap metal.
Metal LBP-coated building components cannot be subject to grinding, sawing, drilling, sanding, or torch cutting.
Note that future work involving surface preparation of identified painted surface(s) must be performed in accordance with OSHA worker protection requirements.
Those surfaces which do not contain LBP are not subject to the RRP requirements. If a specific component or surface is not identified as having been tested, it should be presumed to contain lead paint unless tested.
Contractors should be aware that the threshold limit of 1.0 mg/cm2 for purposes of RRP requirements is not recognized by OSHA and workers exposures are still subject to lead in construction regulation 29 CFR 1926.62 regardless of paint testing results.
4 Lead Waste Characterization
A waste is a solid or liquid material that serves no further purpose. A waste is defined by EPA to be hazardous if it contains certain properties that could pose dangers to human health and the environment after it is discarded.
Wastes that are ignitable, corrosive, reactive, or toxic are regulated under the Hazardous Waste Regulations.
TCLP is a method that extracts the compounds of interest in a standard way simulating landfill conditions (EPA Title 40 CFR, Part 261).
F:\P2017\0932\C89\Deliverables\Report\LtdHazardousBldgMaterialsInspection_Revised_20250612.docx 7
4.1 Sample Collection Methodology
Mr. Craig Cyr collected representative aliquots of various lead-based paint-containing and lead-containing building components throughout the building. Material substrates such as brick, concrete, and wood were segregated in accordance with LBP determination data. Representative aliquots were collected of the individual substrates/surfaces and composited based on their respective quantities into a single sample.
Complete Environmental Testing, Inc., (CET) of Stratford, Connecticut, analyzed the composite sample. CET is a State of Connecticut-certified laboratory. The sample was analyzed using EPA Method SW-846 (Extraction
Method 1311).
4.2 Results
Two composite samples were collected and analyzed: one a composite of the entire building and one a composite of the exterior building materials. The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) defines toxic concentrations for lead which is commonly identified in paint to be equal to or greater than 5.0 milligrams per liter
(mg/L), or parts per million (ppm).
The analytical result of the representative composite sample of the entire building indicates the waste leaches lead at less than 5.0 mg/L (1.2 mg/L) and, therefore, is not classified as a hazardous waste. The analytical result of the representative composite sample of the exterior building materials indicates that the waste leaches lead at greater than 5.0 mg/L (19 mg/L) and, therefore, is classified as a hazardous waste. Refer to Appendix G for the
Lead Waste Characterization Laboratory Report and Chain of Custody Form.
4.3 Conclusion
Based on the TCLP laboratory analytical results of the entire building, the representative waste stream composite sample would not be classified by EPA or CTDEEP as hazardous waste. The exterior building materials would be classified by EPA or CTDEEP as hazardous waste. Additional waste characterization sampling may be required for this site based on the method of remediation and waste segregation and/or the requirements of the disposal facility. As long as all the construction debris of the entire building are not segregated, all construction debris is not hazardous.
5 Waste Characterization for Ash
5.1 Sampling
On May 30, 2025, Fuss & O’Neill’s representative Mr. Craig Cyr collected a representative sample of ash material from the boiler ash dump accessible from the furnace room.
The sample collected was analyzed by Complete Environmental Testing, Inc., (CET) of Stratford, Connecticut, which is a State of Connecticut-certified laboratory. The sample was analyzed for waste characterization utilizing TCLP parameters including RCRA 8 metals (EPA 6010D) and mercury (EPA 7471B).
F:\P2017\0932\C89\Deliverables\Report\LtdHazardousBldgMaterialsInspection_Revised_20250612.docx 8
5.2 Results
In total, one composite fly ash sample was collected and analyzed by the laboratory. The analytical results indicate the material is hazardous waste for disposal purposes.
RCRA 8 Metal Analyte Result (mg/kg) RCRA 8 Allowable Level (mg/kg) Lead 120 5.0
Selenium 9.8 1.0
Cadmium 1.0 1.0
Chromium 8.1 5.0
Arsenic 13 0.5
Barium 64 100
Silver ND 5.0
Bold indicates result exceeds criteria
5.3 Conclusion
The sample result was compared to the RCRA regulations for waste disposal and was determined to be hazardous waste for disposal purposes based on the analysis criteria. The waste material within the boiler chimney should be removed and segregated for proper disposal as hazardous waste. The laboratory results supporting the findings are attached in Appendix H.
6 Presumed PCB-Containing Source Building Materials Inspection
Sampling of building materials for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is presently not mandated by the EPA.
However, significant liability exists for building owners who improperly dispose of a PCB-containing waste material. Recent knowledge and awareness of PCBs within matrices has become more prevalent, especially amongst remediation contractors, waste haulers, and disposal facilities.
Presently, building materials containing PCBs at concentrations equal to or greater than (≥) 50 parts per million (ppm) or the equivalent units of milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) are regulated by the EPA and characterized as PCB Bulk Product. Building materials containing less than (<) 50 ppm may also be regulated unless proven to be an Excluded PCB Product. The definition of an Excluded PCB Product includes those products or sources of the products containing < 50 ppm concentration PCBs that were legally manufactured, processed, distributed in commerce, or used before October 1, 1984. Building materials determined to be Excluded PCB Product containing > 1 ppm PCBs but < 50 ppm PCBs are regulated by CTDEEP. Building materials containing ≤ 1 ppm PCBs are considered non-regulated.
Additionally, the identification of building materials containing regulated PCBs requires additional testing of the adjacent porous surfaces and/or soils, asphalts, and concrete located below source materials. The building materials adjacent to the regulated PCB material must be tested to determine if the adjacent materials are PCB contaminated and may also be considered PCB Bulk Products, if disposed with source materials. Soils, asphalts, and concrete located below source materials must be tested to determine if the materials are PCB contaminated and considered PCB Remediation Waste.

6.1 Methodology
On May 28, 2025, Ms. Stacy Vanderveer and Mr. Craig Cyr performed a visual inspection of caulking and glazing compounds scheduled to be impacted by the proposed Project as materials which may contain PCBs.
Refer to Table 3 for a list of presumed PCB-containing building materials.
6.2 Observations
The following materials are suspect PCB-containing materials that will be impacted by the demolition activities:
Exterior window caulking & glazing compounds
6.3 Conclusions and Recommendations
At a minimum, Fuss & O’Neill recommends the caulking and glazing compounds scheduled to be removed during the Project be presumed to contain PCBs and handled and disposed of in accordance with EPA regulations as
PCB Bulk Product Waste.
Fuss & O’Neill recommends that a comprehensive scope of work and technical specification for presumed PCB remediation during demolition be developed as part of Site demolition plans.
This report is not intended to be utilized as a bidding document or as a project specification document. The report is designed to aid the building owner, architect, construction manager, general contractors, and contractors in locating presumed PCB-containing materials.
