FACILITY REDUCTION PROGRAM

STRATEGY FOR PERFORMING IN-SITU WASTE

DETERMINATIONS AS PART OF A PRE-DEMOLITION

FACILITY SURVEY/ASSESSMENT

17 November 2021

1st Revision: 08 March 2023

2nd Revision: 11 Aug 2023

3rd Revision: 24 April 2025

Introduction

Pre-Demolition Surveys/Assessments for the Facility Reduction Program (FRP) are performed for the purpose of determining presence and extent of Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) and

Other Regulated Material (ORM), and to support the removal of each prior to demolition, as required by law. Thus, such assessments for ACM and ORM are performed in accordance with established regulations, by many capable assessment firms.

General

Pre-demolition Surveys need to be coordinated with an Installation’s Environmental Office:

Base courtesy.

Base Environmental can provide historical context, to include particular areas/materials that have been a concern and require additional attention.

Use of an XRF (as discussed below) introduces a radiation source, which requires coordination and Command approval in order to bring on any installation.

Use of an XRF will require certifications in many states.

The Huntsville Center FRP requires that an In-Situ Waste Determination also be completed as part of the standard Pre-Demo Facility Assessment in order to assess and quantify the presence of both Lead based Paint (LBP) and PCB's-in-paint. The purpose for this is to give a

"heads up" to our demo customers if there will be hazardous disposal concerns associated with the building debris which could cause additional cost to the demolition project.

Regulations require waste disposal be done in a particular manner, using disposal sampling of a representative sample of the debris pile and the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching procedure

(TCLP) analysis for the RCRA 8 Metals. Once shown to be non-hazardous for the RCRA 8, the building debris is loaded and disposed of. The In-Situ Waste Determination is done on the building materials of a facility, as it stands, prior to demolition. FRP considers the entire facility to be the Decision Unit (DU) for consideration. Toward this aim, the in-Situ Waste

Determination should be approached as follows:

LBP Determination

Determination should be made regarding the percentages of the various building materials that make up the facility structure (ie wood, concrete, CMU, metal, wallboard, etc).

The sample to be taken should be comprised of each type of building material found in accordance with the percentage of that building on which it is present. For example, if a building is considered to be 60% concrete/CMU, 30% wood (framing and wallboard) and 10% metal, then the sample to be taken should reflect the same percentages as the materials considered to be present.

Use of XRF as a screening tool to see where the highest relative levels of lead are located is acceptable in order to enable biased grab samples to be taken. However, TCLP is the only acceptable (to the FRP) analysis approach for determining disposal alternatives.

Both painted and unpainted materials should be collected for inclusion in the sample.

Or, samples of unpainted surfaces can be collected and tested by themselves, in addition to collection of samples from painted surfaces to be tested by themselves.

Painted samples should be selected/collected; in much the same way as ACM samples are selected, to be representative of different Homogeneous Areas (HA's). The term

"paint histories" is applicable, with the color/relative time of application and substrate material representing a particular paint history.

For example, if a particular white paint is used in a room that is CMU/concrete below, supporting wood framing and wallboard above, that would be considered two paint histories.

Painted material surfaces should be sampled to include not just the paint, but the substrates as well. (Note: the presence of flaked paint on the walls/floor of a building is a separate issue, to be handled following the sweeping up and containerization of such flakes, if existent, prior to demolition. At that point, the paint flakes would be sampled on their own prior to disposal).

As with different forms of ACM, the Contractor will be expected to estimate the amount of material being affected by each paint so that an estimation of the amounts of affected materials can be derived as part of the Pre-Demo Survey.

Samples should be analyzed for presence/amount of contamination for the RCRA 8 metals using the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP). However, TCLP is the only acceptable (to the FRP) analysis approach for determining disposal alternatives.

PCB's-in-Paint Determination

PCB's-in-paint refers to the fact that in years past, paints were manufactured with PCB's in them to give the paints increased plasticity/stability, increased water and chemical resistance and, in facilities that employed heat processes, to allow better conductance of heat in building materials.

The sampling for PCB's will be performed using the same general process as the above for LBP and in accordance with "EPA Region I Standard Operating Procedure for Sampling Porous Surfaces for Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs)", May 2011.

Sampling should be done of both painted and unpainted surfaces to demonstrate if unpainted concrete has absorbed any PCB's emanating from other potential sources

(glazes, caulking, sealants, nearby equipment). Painted and unpainted samples shall be analyzed separately and distinctly, so as to avoid conclusions in the paints that affect the unpainted concrete, as well.

As with different forms of ACM, the Contractor will be expected to estimate the amount of material being affected by each paint history so that an estimation of the amounts of affected materials can be derived as part of the Pre-Demo Survey.

Samples should be analyzed for presence/amount of contamination for PCB's using a totals analysis (as opposed to a TCLP) to determine the concentration of PCB's

(if any) within the paints:

▪ Analyses should provide MDL’s that are <0.5 ppm.

▪ Data will be developed to support installation decision-making with respect to appropriate disposal.
