1.0 INTRODUCTION
Mabbett and Associates, Inc. (Mabbett®) performed a survey for regulated building materials (RBM) as part of the A/E Design Services for the Renovation and Expansion of the Community Living Center, Building 12, at the Mann- Grandstaff Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center located in Spokane, Washington, VA Project No. 686-318. Site survey work was performed on August 19, 2021 and led by Certified Asbestos Inspector Mr. Michael Delaney and consisted of the following activities:
A review of the existing facility and as-built drawings;
An Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) survey of suspect materials (Analysis by Polarized Light
Microscopy [PLM]; and Limited Lead Containing Paint (LCP) sampling (Analysis by atomic absorption [AA]).
The survey was limited to the areas identified on the Proposed First Floor Plan Scheme 1 drawing developed by AES Group, Inc. and dated June 17, 2021. These areas included the two patient wings, nurses’ station, common areas, and exterior locations that may be impacted by the proposed expansion.

2.0 ASBESTOS SURVEY
A visual screening inspection was conducted by a certified asbestos inspector to identify locations of suspect ACM and conceptualize the sampling program. Only areas that were accessible during the field work phase were inspected, with reasonable efforts made during the field survey work to access areas as necessary to complete the asbestos survey and sampling program. The East patient care wing was vacant at the time of the survey. The majority of the destructive sampling occurred in the vacant spaces with visual confirmation of materials occurring in occupied rooms.
Prior to the execution of this survey, existing building plans for Building 12 were examined and VA engineering personnel interviewed to discern the age and condition of existing materials, as well as the renovation history of the area being surveyed.
2.1 Sampling Methodology
Friable surfacing material:
• At least three bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is 1,000 ft2 or less
• At least five bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than
1,000 ft2 but less than or equal to 5,000 ft2.
• At least seven bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than 5,000 ft2.
Thermal system insulation:
• At least three bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area of thermal system insulation.
• At least one bulk sample shall be collected from each homogeneous area of patched area of thermal system insulation.
• Sufficient samples shall be collected from elbows and fittings to determine if they contain ACM.
• Bulk samples shall not be collected from any homogeneous area where the state licensed asbestos inspector determined that the thermal system insulation is fiberglass, foam glass, rubber, or other non-ACM.
Miscellaneous material:
• At least two bulk sample shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is less than 100 ft2.
• At least three bulk samples shall be collected from each homogeneous area that is greater than 100 ft2.
Areas that were inaccessible, or where the survey was limited to visual observation only, are identified below:
Within walls
Enclosed pipe/duct chases
Inside mechanical equipment/ductwork
Electrical equipment
2.2 Analytical Methodology
The collected bulk samples were submitted under chain of custody procedures to Scientific Analytical Institute (SAI) of Greensboro, North Carolina. SAI is accredited by the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) and

Page 3 September 29, 2021 Project No. R2019016.001 S:\ADMINA\2019016 Seattle VAMC\001\Spokane VAMC CLC RBM Survey Report - Final.docx participates in the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP Lab Code 200664-0). Bulk samples were analyzed by PLM using EPA Method 600/R-93/116.
Bulk sample results from this inspection are summarized in Appendix A, Summary of ACM Building Survey Results.
The EPA, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Spokane Regional Clean Air Agency defines any material that contains greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos as being an ACM. As such, the analytical laboratory identified bulk samples as positive for asbestos that met the regulatory criteria of greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos. Laboratory report and chain of custody documentation are provided in Appendix B of this report.
2.3 Summary of Asbestos Containing Materials Findings
Mabbett identified twenty (20) areas of homogenous materials and collected fifty-four (54) representative bulk ACM samples. Asbestos sampling locations and results are identified on Figure RBM-1. Results for all the bulk samples collected during this survey are presented in Appendix A. The laboratory analytical results indicated that none of the homogenous materials sampled during the Mabbett survey contained asbestos.

3.0 LEAD CONTAINING PAINT SURVEY
The limited LCP survey included the collection of paint chips from painted surfaces and systems of the Community Living Center that may be impacted by the planned renovation. Ten (10) samples of different homogenous areas of paint were collected during this survey. Paint chip samples were submitted under standard COC procedures to SAI with analysis conducted using AA EPA method SW846-3050B/6010C/7000B.
The results of the limited LCP sampling are summarized in Table 1, with the laboratory report provided in Appendix C.

4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
4.1 Asbestos
ACM was not identified in the areas and materials surveyed. Any suspect materials encountered during renovation/demolition activities that are not identified in this report as being non-ACM should be assumed to be ACM unless sample results prove otherwise. If ACM is identified, all abatement must be performed in accordance with federal, state, and local requirements.
The scope of this survey was limited to materials and areas that may be impacted by the Renovate and Expand Community Living Center project, and as described in this report. Suspect materials that may be present in areas outside the scope of this work were not included in this survey and therefore were not sampled.
4.2 Lead Containing Paint
The purpose of the limited LCP survey was to identify similar areas of LCP. During the on-site survey, representative samples of similar areas of interior building coatings were collected and analyzed for lead content.
The regulations addressing LCP in non-residential buildings are focused on occupational exposures involved with paint-disturbing activities and related waste-disposal activities.
Occupational exposure to lead during construction is regulated by OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1926.62 “Lead in Construction,” as well as other applicable state and local regulations. These regulations involve air monitoring to determine worker exposure levels when disturbing paint containing measurable levels of lead. This LCP survey cannot determine a safe level of lead for the purpose of paint-disturbing activities. However, this report is intended to provide guidance as to the location of LCP so it can be controlled, abated, or disposed of properly during this project’s construction related activities. Information gathered during this LCP survey should be used to determine where worker exposures to airborne lead may occur. Additionally, this information should also be used to assess the potential for exposure to workers, and for determining appropriate controls necessary to limit his or her health risks during this project.
A concentration of lead greater than or equal to 0.5 mg/Kg percent by weight or 1.0 mg/cm2 exceeds EPA and HUD residential standards is considered an indicator of risk. Representative samples of LCP waste to be generated during building renovation, or following demolition but prior to disposal, should be collected and analyzed using toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) in accordance with 40 CFR Part 261. Management and disposal of lead containing waste must be done in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal regulations.
OSHA regulations may require certain procedures for any paint that contains lead, even if it is below these levels.
All LCP identified, regardless of the lead content, should either be sampled and analyzed by TCLP and then handled/disposed of accordingly, or segregated from other large-scale debris and then managed as hazardous waste in accordance with federal, state, and local hazardous waste disposal regulations.
