Report
Mr. Randy Alvar CEMS Engineering
1. Introduction
As requested by Mr. Randy Alvar, Crystal Coast Environmental, Inc. (CCEI) conducted a Limited Asbestos Survey of the above-referenced building/project. The survey consisted of visually observing the building, then collecting a representative number of samples for subsequent laboratory analyses as described below. The objective of the survey was to identify and quantify asbestos-containing building materials (ACBMs) as well as verify previous findings for future planned renovations or demolition activity.
As directed by the client, destructive testing was performed on roofing material to identify materials which may be hidden or obstructed by layers of wood substrate.
Unless noted herein, no other destructive testing was conducted to expose other potentially hidden or obstructed material. Examples of other areas include, but are not limited to: interior wall cavities, pipe chases, spaces above fixed ceilings, grout/adhesive beneath ceramic tiles/marble tiles/granite, and adhesives behind wall mounted mirrors, etc
The survey was conducted in accordance with CCEI’s proposal. The survey was conducted on June 16, 2017 by Mr. Robert Elbertson. A copy of inspector’s accreditation is provided in Appendix B.
2. Methodology
CCEI conducted the survey in general accordance with ASTM E2356-09 Standard Practice for Comprehensive Building Asbestos Surveys. ASTM E2356-09 meets the applicable requirements of current Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) Standard 40 CFR 61, Subpart M (Asbestos); EPA Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA)
Standard 40 CFR 763, Subpart E; and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) asbestos survey and/or sampling regulations.
CCEI visually observed readily accessible areas for suspect ACBMs. Identified suspect materials were divided into "Homogeneous Applications" (HAs) - i.e., building materials which were determined by the inspector to be homogeneous based on their color, texture, and assumed date of installation.
Representative samples were then collected from selected HAs. The numbers of samples collected was based on CCEI’s in-house sampling protocol, which is based in part on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) regulations. Each sample was assigned its own
Report
Mr. Randy Alvar CEMS Engineering unique identification number, placed in 4 mil sealable plastic bags, and tightly sealed for subsequent shipment under a chain of custody protocol to Carolina Environmental, Inc. (CEI) located in Cary, North Carolina.
3. Analytical Methods
Material identification was performed by CEI using Polarized Light Microscopy with Dispersion Staining (PLM/DS) method in accordance with the U.S. EPA Method 600/R-93/116. Asbestos content in each sample was evaluated based on a visual examination of each sample using a stereoscope.
CEI is a member of the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) and accredited through the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) administered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
CEI accreditations are provided in Appendix B and laboratory analytical report is provided in Appendix E.
4. Findings
A total of 14 HAs was identified throughout the Site, and a total of nine suspect ACBM bulk samples were collected and submitted for laboratory analysis. A listing of HAs identified along with each HA material description, location, condition, asbestos content and estimated quantity are presented in Appendix C. Approximate sampling locations are shown in the Appendix D.
Prior to commencement of the asbestos survey, CCEI conducted a review of the existing asbestos data (if available).
5. Conclusions and Recommendations
As presented in Appendix C and the laboratory data provided in Appendix E, the results of the asbestos survey did not identify ACBMs at the Site.
In accordance with current EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Pollutants (NESHAP) regulations, certain types of ACM must be removed prior to being disturbed by demolition or renovation activities. Current EPA NESHAP and Health Hazards
Control Unit (HHC) of North Carolina Department of Health and Human Service (DHHS) regulations require that all Regulated ACMs (RACM) be removed prior to being disturbed. RACMs are defined as:
Friable ACM.
Report
Mr. Randy Alvar CEMS Engineering
Non-Friable Category 1 ACM that has become friable.
Non-Friable Category 1 ACM that has been or will be subjected to sanding, abrading, grinding, or cutting.
Non-Friable Category 2 ACM that has a high probability of becoming friable or crumbled, pulverized, or otherwise reduced to powder by the demolition or renovation activities.
If other suspect materials that are not referenced in this report are identified during demolition and/or renovation activities, CCEI recommends that these materials be considered as ACBM until they are inspected by an appropriately licensed asbestos inspector and proven otherwise.
Due to the inability to effectively separate some types of multi-layered ACBMs (i.e., floor tile/mastic, mastic/wood subflooring, gypsum board/joint compound, etc.) from non-ACMs these materials are considered “asbestos-contaminated” for the purposes of removal, and should be managed as ACBM.
ACBMs identified at the Site that may be disturbed during demolition activities, must be removed by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor utilizing industry standard work procedures in accordance with all federal, state and local regulations governing asbestos.
Asbestos waste must be disposed at an asbestos waste receiving facility that is duly permitted by the state and/or local municipality in which it resides. The asbestos waste should be disposed in a landfill with a NESHAP condition in the facility’s air permit that allows acceptance of RACM.
6. Additional Survey Limitations
CCEI’s asbestos survey is subject to the following limitations in addition to those presented in Appendix A:
Utilities/services, including electric were assumed to be active in the areas surveyed. Materials associated with electrical components and energized equipment, were not safely accessible and were not sampled.
Subsurface investigations, including access to below grade structures, underground piping, conduits, building footings and extent of subsurface soil asbestos contamination if any was not accessible at the time of the survey.
Should decide to remove/demolish below grade structures, an additional
Limitations and Service Constraints
The opinions, conclusions and recommendations presented in this report are limited to the information obtained during the performance of the specific scope of service identified in the report. To the extent that
Crystal Coast Environmental, Inc. (CCEI) relied upon any information prepared by other parties not under direct contract to CCEI, no representation as to the accuracy or completeness of such information is made.

Dear Customer:
Enclosed are asbestos analysis results for PLM Bulk samples received at our laboratory on June 20, 2017. The samples were analyzed for asbestos using polarizing light microscopy (PLM) per the EPA 600 Method.
Sample results containing >1% asbestos are considered asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) per EPA regulatory requirements. The detection limit for the EPA 600 Method is <1% asbestos by weight as determined by visual estimation.
Thank you for your business and we look forward to continuing good relations. If you have any questions, please feel free to call our office at 919-481-1413.

Due to the limitations of the EPA 600 method, nonfriable organically bound materials (NOBs) such as vinyl floor tiles can be difficult to analyze via polarized light microscopy (PLM). EPA recommends that all NOBs analyzed by PLM, and found not to contain asbestos, be further analyzed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Please note that PLM analysis of dust and soil samples for asbestos is not covered under NVLAP accreditation. Estimated measurement of uncertainty is available on request.
