The inspection was conducted by Puerto Rico EQB and United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) accredited Inspectors qualified by experience, education and training in the recognition of potential ACM and approved bulk sampling techniques. Some areas may not have been directly accessible due to the physical hazards encountered within.

In these areas assumptions based on findings in other areas were made whenever possible.

These assumptions are duly noted as such in this report.

The inspection was performed in accordance with Environmental Protection Agency recommended procedures found in EPA-450/2-78-014 (Parts I and II), EPA 560/5-85-024, and 40 CFR 763. These procedures call for the visual inspection of the building for suspect friable material and collection and analysis of representative samples of suspect material.

SECTION 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1.1 INTRODUCTION

Zimmetry Environmental Management Corp. was contracted by B&A Consulting Engineering to perform a Lead-Based Paint inspection. The survey was conducted on July 9, 2020 at the metal guard rails located at PR-784, Km 2.6 in Caguas, Puerto Rico as part of Hurricane María Efforts for Signing & Guardrail: Aguas Buenas, Caguas, Gurabo, Las Piedras & San Lorenzo- AC-810541 project. The lead-based paint inspection was performed to identify paint that contains lead above allowable levels and to assist with the compliance of local, state and federal regulations.

1.2 SUMMARY OF PROPERTY EVALUATION

The project consisted in the evaluation of the areas of the aforementioned project. The evaluation found that no lead-based paint above the regulatory levels were present through the road on the date of the evaluation. Some guardrails could not be inspected in their entirety due to the particular conditions of the site, if additional items are identified they shall be managed as containing lead.

• Km 2.6 North Side – No Painted

• Km 2.6 South Side

Guard Rails on PR-784 surface-by-surface basis. A lead-based paint inspection conforming to HUD guidelines was performed at the road.

Averages of 9 samples were taken at all identified surfaces on the day of the evaluation using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer. The evaluation found that no lead-based paint above the regulatory levels were present through the site on the date of the evaluation.

Some of the remaining XRF test locations exhibited lead-in-paint levels below the level that EPA identifies as lead-based paint, namely 1.0 mg/cm2. Such surfaces could create dust-lead or soil-lead hazards if the paint is turned into dust by abrasion, scraping, or sanding. Should these or any lead containing components or surfaces be disturbed in any manner that generates dust, care should be taken to limit its spread.

Testing was performed by Joanne Negrón, state-certified inspector LBPI-02320-011, using the Niton XLp-300A XRF, SN-101222. The credentials are provided in Section 3, Appendix B: Certifications, Licenses, and Accreditations. The XRF analyzer is designed to measure the lead content of surface coatings on a variety of building surfaces, substrates, and components. The measurement is rapid and nondestructive and, according to the manufacturer, is capable of detecting lead concentrations that occur within numerous layers of various surface coatings.

Please refer to the XRF Testing Results Section 3, Appendix A: XRF Sampling Data for the detailed analytical testing results for each distinct area inspected. The reports provide a complete testing data.

2.2 SAMPLING PROCEDURE AND RESULTS PRESENTATION

The Lead Based Paint Sampling Procedure was design to evaluate and document all the data obtained form the inspection in a sequential method that provided confidence at the moment of the results presentation.

The survey was performed following the methodology established in the HUD Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead Based Paint in Housing (2012 revision) and the Department of Natural and Environmental Resources (DRNA) of Puerto Rico Regulation 9098: Regulation for Proper Management of Lead-Based Paint Activities. The surfaces evaluation was performed as follows:

• If the lead concentration measured by the XRF Spectrum Analyzer is less than 1.0 mg/cm2 it is considered negative

• If the lead concentration measured by the XRF Spectrum Analyzer is equal or greater than 1.0 mg/cm2 it is considered positive.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

EVALUATION DATA SOURCE AND DATE:

This sheet is supplemental information to be used in conjunction with Chapter 7 of the HUD Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing ("HUD Guidelines"). Performance parameters shown on this sheet are calculated from the EPA/HUD evaluation using archived building components. Testing was conducted in August 2004 on 133 testing combinations. The instruments that were used to perform the testing had new sources; one instrument’s was installed in November 2003 with 40 mCi initial strength, and the other’s was installed June 2004 with 40 mCi initial strength.

OPERATING PARAMETERS:

Performance parameters shown in this sheet are applicable only when properly operating the instrument using the manufacturer's instructions and procedures described in Chapter 7 of the HUD Guidelines.

SUBSTRATE CORRECTION VALUE COMPUTATION:

Substrate correction is not needed for brick, concrete, drywall, metal, plaster or wood when using Lead-in- Paint K+L variable reading time mode, the normal operating mode for these instruments. If substrate correction is desired, refer to Chapter 7 of the HUD Guidelines for guidance on correcting XRF results for substrate bias.

EVALUATING THE QUALITY OF XRF TESTING:

Randomly select ten testing combinations for retesting from each house or from two randomly selected units in multifamily housing. Use the K+L variable time mode readings.

Conduct XRF retesting at the ten testing combinations selected for retesting.

Determine if the XRF testing in the units or house passed or failed the test by applying the steps below.

Compute the Retest Tolerance Limit by the following steps:

Determine XRF results for the original and retest XRF readings. Do not correct the original or retest results for substrate bias. In single-family housing a result is defined as the average of three readings. In multifamily housing, a result is a single reading.

Therefore, there will be ten original and ten retest XRF results for each house or for the two selected units.

Calculate the average of the original XRF result and retest XRF result for each testing combination.

Square the average for each testing combination.

Add the ten squared averages together. Call this quantity C.

Multiply the number C by 0.0072. Call this quantity D.

Add the number 0.032 to D. Call this quantity E.

Take the square root of E. Call this quantity F.

Multiply F by 1.645. The result is the Retest Tolerance Limit.

Compute the average of all ten original XRF results.

Compute the average of all ten re-test XRF results.

Find the absolute difference of the two averages.

If the difference is less than the Retest Tolerance Limit, the inspection has passed the retest. If the difference of the overall averages equals or exceeds the Retest Tolerance Limit, this procedure should be repeated with ten new testing combinations. If the difference of the overall averages is equal to or greater than the Retest Tolerance Limit a second time, then the inspection should be considered deficient.

Use of this procedure is estimated to produce a spurious result approximately 1% of the time. That is, results of this procedure will call for further examination when no examination is warranted in approximately 1 out of 100 dwelling units tested.

TESTING TIMES:

For the Lead-in-Paint K+L variable reading time mode, the instrument continues to read until it is moved away from the testing surface, terminated by the user, or the instrument software indicates the reading is complete. The following table provides testing time information for this testing mode. The times have been adjusted for source decay, normalized to the initial source strengths as noted above. Source strength and type of substrate will affect actual testing times. At the time of testing, the instruments had source strengths of 26.6 and 36.6 mCi.

Testing Times Using K+L Reading Mode (Seconds)

All Data Median for laboratory-measured lead levels (mg/cm2)
