Executive Summary

Blockett Inspections was contracted to conduct and environmental investigation, the LBP report covers only 42,000 square feet of the building inside and out. The assessment of the Air National Gerard located at 6200 M. St. Meridian, MS. 39307. This investigation was performed as a component of a proposed demolition project. It is our understanding that the proposed project will include the complete demolition/removal of the existing building. Therefore, the scope of this investigation was to identify, analyze, and assess the condition of lead-based painted or coated components that are associated with the existing building. This scope includes both a visual evaluation of the physical condition of painted materials as well as quantitative testing. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulate worker exposure to lead dust, and as a result consider materials with any lead content to be a potential hazard.

The suspect painted components that were identified during this investigation are the following: Concrete Block, Wood frame, Metal Door frame, Sheetrock wall, Metal Column, Metal Rafter, Fire Extinguishers holder, Metal Poles, Horizontal Beams and Dock Area. The results from the testing indicate that the following components tested positive for lead in concentrations ≥ 0.7 mg/cm2: All the yellow metal poles and handrails, Fire extinguishers holders and the red and blue poles off from the main office on the rear. All Dark Green Metal Beams in the interior over the main office area. The test results are organized in which includes the location, description and type of component from which the readings were taken.

We sincerely appreciate the opportunity to assist you with this project. If you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact our office at (662) 846-1924

Sincerely, Cynthia Blockett Lead-Based Paint Inspector

Overview of the Evaluation

Housing and Urban Development (HUD) defines “lead-based paint” as any coating that has a lead concentration of 1.0 milligrams of lead per square centimeter (1.0 mg/cm2 ) or greater, or if the lead concentration is greater than 0.5% by weight. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) currently considers paint to be lead-containing if the concentration of lead exceeds 90 ppm (0.009% by weight). In 1978, the CPSC banned the sale of lead-based paint to consumers, and banned its application in areas where consumers have direct access to painted surfaces. Both the CPSC and HUD definitions of lead-containing paint are aimed at protecting the general population from exposure to lead in the residential and commercial setting. In contrast, the mission of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) with respect to lead-containing paint is to protect workers during construction activities that may generate elevated airborne lead concentrations. OSHA states that construction work (including renovation, maintenance, and demolition) carried-out on structures coated with paint having lead concentrations lower than the HUD or CPSC can still result in airborne lead concentrations in excess of regulatory limits. For this reason, OSHA has not defined lead-containing paint, but states that paint having any measurable level of lead may pose a substantial exposure hazard during construction work, depending upon the work performed. Therefore, in these situations, OSHA regulations, guidelines, and safety procedures should be followed.

Lead-based paint is paint containing more than 0.05% lead as a pigment. Lead is added to paint to speed up drying, increase durability, maintain a fresh appearance, and resist moisture that causes corrosion. It is one of the main health and environmental hazards associated with paint. Since 1978, paint with lead has been banned in the U.S. for domestic use, however lead-based paint may still be found in older properties painted prior to the introduction of such regulations.

This lead-based paint inspection is an environmental investigation to identify all lead based paint on a surface-by-surface basis. A lead based paint inspection conforming to HUD guidelines was performed of the structured painted surfaces.

Both paint chip and dust wipe samples were collected at all identified surfaces on the inside of the property. A drawing of the floor plan has been provided in the appendix

Scope of Services

The purpose of this investigation was to identify Lead-Based paint and hazardous materials inside and outside this building through a room-to-room inspection and sampling. In specific:

The scope of services for the LBP investigation included:

Visual survey of the property to evaluate the building’s condition and any deteriorating painted surfaces.

A lead-based paint inspection of painted surfaces inside the property through paint chips and dust wipes.

Method of Testing

Paint-chip samples were taken containing all layers of paint (not just peeled layers) it also include the bottom layer of paint. Dust samples were also taken with disposable wipes over a specified area. The wipes met the ASTM E1792-96a specification criteria as a suitable material for lead wipe sampling of surface dust. Under chain of custody, all samples were submitted to an AIHA or ELPAT accredited laboratory.

Lead-Based Paint (chip) samples were collected by physically removing a small portion (approximately 2 square inches) using a cutting or coring tool. Each sample was placed into a sealed and labeled container, and sample locations and descriptions were recorded. The inspector delivered the samples along with a completed chain-of-custody (COC) document to the laboratory. The laboratory then arranged the samples in numerical order. If a discrepancy between the samples exists, this is noted and initialed on the COC. The laboratory signed a copy of the COC to acknowledge receipt. The inspector retained the signed copy for evidentiary purposes. Further, the laboratory assigned a laboratory number to each sample received. The laboratory labeled both the analytical report and the sample container with this laboratory number for cross-reference purposes.

Lead-Based Paint Walsh conducted a limited LBP survey at the site by collecting a limited number of representative paint chip samples that were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) for lead content. The limited LBP survey was conducted due to planned demolition of a structure and is solely for general disclosure purposes to provide contractors with information regarding those materials containing the highest levels of lead, to supplement presumption that all painted surfaces contain some level of lead. This disclosure is provided to those employers that may impact painted materials during demolition activities. The screening is also conducted to provide

6200 M. St., Meridian, MS 39307

LEAD BASED PAINT INSPECTOR • RISK ASSOSSOR • ASBESTOS INSPECTOR

general information regarding demolition/renovation waste characterization/disposition (proper disposal). The lead inspection used methods adapted from the Housing and Urban Development (HUD)

LEAD PAINT CHIP ANALYSIS REPORT

RECOMMENDATIONS

As reported herein, lead-based paint was identified in concentrations above both the MSDHEC and OSHA limits on the yellow metal posts and handrail, Fire extinguishers holder and All Green Metal Beams in the interior of the building over the main office area.. It is important to ensure that the debris generated from the demolition activities are handled and disposed of appropriately. The proper handling and disposal procedures depend on the type of substrate (i.e., metal, etc.). Intact removal is recommended in order to reduce and/ or eliminate the generation of lead-containing dust and residue. Metal components painted with and/ or containing lead, such as the beams, beam to diaphragm angle iron post, etc. may be recycled if they are taken to a recycling facility that accepts lead painted and/or lead-containing material. Components found to contain lead should be handled appropriately. It is recommended that work tasks which require grinding, sanding, torch cutting or other disturbance of the lead-based painted surfaces identified herein be performed in accordance with federal regulations pertaining to worker protection from exposure to LBP. When lead containing items are disturbed or begin to decay they become a concern with regard to human and environmental health. The typical routes of exposure to lead are through the inhalation or ingestion of lead-contaminated materials. In cases where the lead containing paint/ coating is intact (i.e. has not been aerosolized and free of chipping or flaking), there is minimal risk to people. As stated previously, OSHA regulates any measurable level of worker exposure to lead, as it may pose a substantial exposure hazard during construction work. These items are highlighted in red on the data table. Therefore, when handling any of the red highlighted items components, OSHA regulations and safety procedures should be followed. These regulations list the proper personal protective equipment to be used by the workers disturbing the lead-based paint items and the requirements for personal air monitoring.

OSHA’s exposure action level (AL) for lead, regardless of respirator use, is an airborne concentration of 30µg/cm3 , averaged over an eight-hour period. The action level (AL) is the level at which an employer must begin specific compliance activities as outlined in OSHA’s lead standards.

By OSHA standards and regulations, the employer shall ensure that no employee is exposed to lead at concentrations greater than fifty micrograms per cubic meter of air (50 µg/m3 ) averaged over an 8-hour period which is the permissible exposure level (PEL). As previously mentioned the MSDHEC is primarily concerned with the proper disposal of LBP and associated debris. The following is a synopsis of the concerns associated with the disposal of these materials: The MSDHEC defines two types of lead-based paint debris. The first is lead-based paint waste, which is defined as material such as wood, brick and metal that is painted with lead based paint. The other is lead-based paint residue which is defined as residue that is generated from the removal (e.g., scraped, chipped, sandblasted or chemical) of lead-based paint from a structure.

LEAD BASED PAINT INSPECTOR • RISK ASSOSSOR • ASBESTOS INSPECTOR

Lead-based paint waste that comes from a commercial or residential facility may be disposed of in either a class 2 or 3 landfill, while lead-based paint residue from a commercial facility must have a toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) analysis to determine the lead content. A waste is a characteristic hazardous waste due to leach ability and is expressed in mg/l; > 5.0 mg/l is considered hazardous waste under the MS Hazardous Waste Management Regulation. Lead-based paint residue from a commercial facility with a analysis result less than 5 mg/l lead must be disposed of in a class 3 landfill. Lead-based paint residue with a TCLP analysis result greater than or equal to 5 mg/l lead must be disposed of in a Subtitle C landfill (Hazardous Waste). Should any hidden and/or inaccessible components suspected to have LBP be encountered during demolition activities, the contractor performing the work is advised to stop work, follow proper procedures and precautions relating to LBP.

FUNCTIONAL SPACE INFORMATION

The following summary provides basic information for specific materials inspected, including location, description, dimensions, and other observations. This summary also identifies those areas that were inaccessible and could not be inspected, which will require inspection prior to renovation activities.

Lead-Based Paint and Lead-Containing Paint Renovation and demolition activities involving lead-based paint are the OSHA Construction Industry Standard for Lead (Title 29 of the Federal Code of Regulations, Part 1926.62). This standard addresses such issues as worker training, medical evaluations, personnel protective equipment, exposure assessment, biological monitoring, air monitoring, hygiene facilities and practices, and health and safety plans. OSHA regulations do not define a minimum concentration of lead as a threshold for action. Thus, even concentrations below EPA/HUD/CDPHE levels are regulated by OSHA. Demolition/Renovation Specific.

Additionally, lead-containing materials require a hazardous waste determination pursuant to 40 CFR 262.11, and 40 CFR 261.24. It is a standard industry approach that demolition waste characterization should be performed on structures containing lead-based paint. This procedure is the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Process (TCLP), where sample composite representative of all building components to be demolished (i.e. all lead-based paint coated and non-lead-based paint coated materials from the structure) is submitted to the laboratory for analysis. The Toxicity Characteristic (TC) limit for lead is 5ppm in the leachate. Materials that exceed this limit must be disposed of as hazardous waste. Materials that do not exceed this limit may be disposed of as solid waste. Lead-containing materials shown to have a total lead content below 0.01% by weight are not expected to reach or exceed the EPA RCRA limit for leachable lead, and need not be analyzed by TCLP. Samples exceeding 0.01% by weight may require TCLP analyses depending on whether the materials will be

disposed of or recycled. If the materials will be disposed of then TCLP would be the industry standard. Materials that are recycled such as metal components are not subject to waste characterization provisions under EPA and CDPHE, but proper disclosure of lead containing materials should be provided to the recycling facility for hazard communication purposes. The types and locations of lead-based paint and regulatory requirements should be disclosed to the demolition contractor and/or salvage contractor to avoid accidental disturbance, and for contractor compliance with applicable regulations (to ensure proper worker protection).

Prior to any renovation and/or demolition that may disturb the positive Lead Base Paint Containing Materials, Lead Base Paint abatement plans and guideline specifications should be developed. The Lead Base Paint abatement actions (removal) should be accomplished by an accredited and licensed Lead Base Paint abatement contractor and in a manner prescribed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Regulation and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), standard. A 10 day removal/demolition notification must be filed with the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ). This can be filed by anyone familiar with the MDEQ guidelines for filing.

All Lead Base Paint abatement personnel should have received proper training as required for certification of Lead Base Paint workers or supervisors by the State of Mississippi.

Contractor shall obtain necessary permits and state license in conjunction with Lead Base Paint removal, hauling, and disposition, and furnish timely notification of such actions required by federal, state, regional, and local authorities. Notify the Mississippi Bureau of Pollution Control, Air Division and the Environmental Engineer in writing 10 days prior to the commencement of work.
