About this file

This is a Project Manual and Limited Asbestos and Lead Paint Survey Report for the State of Iowa Department of Administrative Services (IDAS) related to the NCCF AHU & Condenser Replacement Project for Units A and B located at 313 Lanedale, Rockwell City, Iowa. The project involves the replacement of Air Handling Unit (AHU) and condenser equipment in two residential houses at the facility. The bidding period was scheduled to open on May 8, 2026, with bids due on June 9, 2026. Bid evaluation and contract award were planned for June 10-12, 2026, with a Notice to Proceed issued on June 15, 2026. The construction phase was scheduled from September 4, 2026, through November 16, 2026, with final completion targeted for December 18, 2026. The project included separate construction schedules for Unit A (September 4 through October 14, 2026) and Unit B (October 8 through November 16, 2026), with both units following similar activity sequences including mobilization, demolition, equipment installation, electrical connections, controls integration, testing and commissioning, and closeout procedures.

The survey identified asbestos-containing materials requiring abatement prior to construction activities, including brown mastic under floor tile in House A (approximately 50 square feet containing 2% chrysotile asbestos) and black tar pipe wrap at AHUs in both houses (approximately 8 linear feet in each unit, assumed to contain asbestos). Lead-based paint (exceeding 0.5% by weight) was identified in the painted plaster ceiling above the stair landing in House A. The project manual was prepared by IMEG, with engineering disciplines certified by licensed professionals Tony DeLouis (Electrical, License #23167, Division 26 & 28) and Nate Jacques (Mechanical, License #21686, Division 23). The asbestos and lead paint survey was conducted by Atlas Technical Consultants LLC on March 31, 2026, with the report issued on April 16, 2026 (Atlas Project ID: 204BS09994). All identified hazardous materials required proper handling, notification, and abatement by qualified contractors in compliance with Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Iowa Workforce Development, OSHA, and USEPA regulations prior to renovation activities.

NCCF AHU Replacement Project Houses A and B

313 Lanedale Rockwell City, Iowa

Atlas Project Number: 204BS09994

1.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES

The purpose of this project was to perform a survey for asbestos and lead paint that may be disturbed as part of the planned AHU replacement project in Houses A & B. One AHU unit to be replaced is located above the stair landing in each house.

Atlas provided a representative asbestos and lead paint survey in accordance with the referenced agreement and as outlined below:

1. Surfaces inspected and tested were limited to accessible surfaces that would potentially be disturbed as part of planned AHU replacement activities, per the scope of work indicated by McGough during the site inspection.

2. Identify suspect asbestos-containing materials (ACM) and surface coatings potentially containing lead paint.

3. Collect and analyze bulk samples of suspect asbestos containing materials and collect paint chip samples from representative surface coatings potentially containing lead paint.

4. Provide laboratory analysis of collected samples.

5. Provide a report of findings with copies and interpretation of analytical results and identifying the locations of asbestos-containing materials and lead paint.

2.0 GENERAL SITE CONDITIONS

The survey was conducted in the stair landings of Houses A & B at the NCCF Facility located in Rockwell City, Iowa. The survey area was limited to interior and exterior surfaces / materials that may be disturbed as part of the AHU Replacement Project

3.0 ASBESTOS SURVEY

On March 31, 2026, the areas to be disturbed in Houses A & B were inspected for ACM by inspector Steve Hudson of Atlas. Mr. Hudson has completed the requisite training for asbestos accreditation as inspector at a state approved training provider under TSCA Title II. Mr. Hudson’s State of Iowa Inspector number is 26-15559.

Planned renovation work was visually inspected for the presence of suspect ACM that may be impacted. Materials that were hidden, not accessible, or when sampled would damage the integrity of the structure, were not sampled as part of this survey. Materials visibly identified as non-asbestos (fibrous glass, foam rubber, wood, etc.) were not sampled. The asbestos survey consisted of three basic steps: 1) a visual inspection of the proposed work areas; 2) a determination of homogeneous areas with suspect surfacing, thermal system insulation, and miscellaneous materials; and 3) sampling accessible, friable and non-friable, suspect materials.

3.1 Regulation Review

In Iowa, asbestos activities are regulated by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) and Iowa Workforce Development (IWD), Division of Labor. IDNR regulates asbestos fiber emissions under Iowa Administrative Code 567 Chapter 23 (IAC 567−23) and asbestos-containing waste disposal under IAC 567−109. IWD regulates occupational exposure to asbestos under IAC 875−10 and asbestos removal and encapsulation activities under IAC 875−155.

IAC 567−23.1(3) adopts the USEPA asbestos NESHAP (40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M) by reference.

Subpart M regulates asbestos fiber emissions and asbestos waste disposal practices. It also requires the identification and classification of existing building materials prior to demolition or renovation activity. Under NESHAP, asbestos-containing building materials are classified as friable, Category I nonfriable, or Category II nonfriable ACM. Friable materials are those that, when dry, may be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure. Category I nonfriable ACM includes packings, gaskets, resilient floor coverings, and asphalt roofing products containing more than 1% asbestos. Category II nonfriable ACM are any materials other than Category I materials that contain more than 1% asbestos.

Regulated ACM (RACM) must be removed before renovation or demolition activities that will disturb the materials. RACM includes:

• Friable ACM;

• Category I nonfriable ACM that has become friable or will be subjected to drilling, sanding, grinding, cutting, or abrading; and

• Category II nonfriable ACM that could be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder during renovation or demolition activities.

The owner or operator must provide the IDNR and IWD with written notification of planned removal activities at least 10 working days prior to the commencement of asbestos abatement activities.

Removal of RACM must be conducted by an Iowa-permitted asbestos abatement contractor.

IAC 875−155 Asbestos Removal and Encapsulation requires that any asbestos-related activity conducted in a public building be performed by personnel licensed or permitted by the IWD.

Inspections for ACM must be conducted by IWD-licensed inspectors. Asbestos abatement must be performed by IWD-permitted asbestos abatement contractors. Management plans developed for the in-place management of asbestos-containing materials must be developed by an IWD-licensed management planner. When an abatement project design is prepared, it must be prepared by an IWD-licensed project designer.

IAC 875−10 adopts the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Asbestos standard for construction (29 CFR 1926.1101) by reference. The OSHA standard requires that employee exposure to airborne asbestos fibers be maintained below the permissible exposure limits (PEL) of

0.1 asbestos fibers per cubic centimeter (0.1 f/cc) of air as an 8-hour time-weighted average and

1.0 f/cc as a 30-minute excursion. The OSHA standard classifies construction and maintenance activities that could disturb ACM and specifies work practices and precautions that employers must follow when engaging in each class of regulated work.

3.2 Homogeneous Areas

Prior to sampling, homogeneous areas were identified in order to facilitate a sampling strategy. A homogeneous sampling area can be described as one or more areas with suspect material similar in appearance and texture that have the same installation date and function. The actual number of samples collected from each homogeneous sampling area may vary, dependent upon material type and the professional judgment of the inspector.

3.3 Sampling Strategy

The sampling strategy incorporated Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) requirements, quantities of suspect material, and the inspector’s judgment to aid in the identification of suspect asbestos-containing materials. If the analytical results indicated that all the samples collected per homogeneous area did not contain asbestos, then the homogeneous area (material) was considered non-asbestos-containing. However, if the analytical results of one or more of the samples collected per homogeneous area indicated that asbestos was present in quantities greater than one percent asbestos (as defined by USEPA), all of the homogeneous area (material) was treated as an asbestos-containing material regardless of any other analytical results. Materials which were visually determined to be non-asbestos (i.e. fibrous glass, foam rubber, etc.) by the accredited inspector were not required to be sampled. Actual collection of a bulk asbestos sample involves physically removing approximately one square inch (1 in2) of material and placing it in an airtight sample container. Sample containers were marked with a unique identification number, which was documented in the field notes.

3.4 Laboratory Analytical Results

A total of 10 samples in Houses A and B were collected from building materials suspected of containing asbestos. The samples were submitted under chain of custody to EMSL Analytical, Inc.

(EMSL) located at 200 Route 130 North Cinnaminson, New Jersey for analysis by polarized light microscopy (PLM) with dispersion staining techniques per the USEPA Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials (600/R-93-116). The percentage of asbestos, if applicable, was established by microscopic visual estimation. EMSL is an accredited laboratory by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Plan (NVLAP) No. 101048-0. Any material that contains greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos is considered an ACM and must be handled according to Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), USEPA, and all applicable state and local regulations.

Laboratory test results and chain of custody are provided in Appendix A.

3.5 Suspect Asbestos-Containing Materials

4.0 LEAD PAINT TESTING

Atlas collected paint chip samples from representative surface coatings that may be impacted by AHU replacement activities.

Surface coatings that were collected were considered to be representative of materials in a homogeneous area if:

1. They exhibited similar physical characteristics (suspect materials alike in appearance, substrate, color, and time of application were tested as homogenous areas)

2. The application of the tested surface could be associated to an application of an unsampled surface.

Atlas collected and submitted a total of four paint chip samples from representative surface coatings. The samples were submitted to EMSL of Cinnaminson, New Jersey, under proper chain of custody for analysis by Lead in Paint Chips by Flame AAS (SW 846 3050B/7000B). EMSL is accredited under the American Industrial Hygiene Association-Laboratory Accreditation Program (AIHA-LAP, LLC) (AIHA-LAP; lab code 100194).

A copy of the analytical results and chain of custody can be found in Appendix B.

The USEPA has defined LBP as “paint or other surface coatings that contain lead in excess of 0.5 percent by weight (>0.5%)”. Results less than 0.5% by weight indicate that lead is not present at or above the USEPA regulatory level; however, lead was present in lower concentrations above

4.1 Regulation Review

The disturbance and disposal of materials with surface coatings that contain lead paint are regulated by the USEPA, OSHA and the State of Iowa. The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) provides the USEPA with the authority to regulate the waste status of demolition or renovation debris, including lead-containing materials. Specific notification and testing requirements must be addressed prior to transporting, treating, storing, or disposing of hazardous wastes.

Construction work covered by 29 CFR 1926.62 includes any repair, renovation or other activities that disturb in-place, lead-containing materials, but does not include routine cleaning and repainting where there is insignificant damage, wear or corrosion of existing lead-containing coatings or substrates. Unless adequately protected, employee exposures to lead must not exceed airborne concentrations >50 micrograms per cubic meter (g/m3) averaged over an 8-hour period.

Occupational exposure to lead occurring in the course of construction work, including maintenance activities, painting, alteration and repairs is subject to the OSHA Lead standard (29 CFR 1926.62). The lead standard applies to any detectable concentration of lead in paint, as even small concentrations of lead can result in unacceptable employee exposures depending upon the method of removal and other workplace conditions.

The disposal of lead containing waste is regulated by the USEPA and State of Iowa. Wastes generated by industrial businesses, commercial businesses, and government institutions are subject to regulation. Commercial business owners and removal contractors are required to determine if paint waste generated from nonresidential structures (such as public and commercial buildings, warehouses, bridges, water towers, and transmission towers) contains heavy metals that would cause the debris to be considered a hazardous waste. Disposal options and applicable management requirements for collected debris will be based upon whether the waste stream is considered a hazardous waste and the amount of debris generated. Removal contractors and building owners need to include these factors when preparing and responding to bid specifications. Specific notification and testing requirements must be addressed prior to transporting, treating, storing, or disposing of hazardous wastes. Lead-containing wastes are considered hazardous waste under RCRA if Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure (TCLP) results exceed 5 milligrams per liter (mg/L). The USEPA has made exceptions for the handling and disposal of lead wastes generated from residential housing.

Specific notification and testing requirements must be addressed prior to transporting, treating, storing, or disposing of hazardous wastes. Lead-containing wastes are considered hazardous waste under RCRA if Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure (TCLP) results exceed 5 milligrams per liter (mg/L). The USEPA has made exceptions for the handling and disposal of lead wastes generated from residential housing.

The above overview is not intended to be inclusive of all potentially pertinent regulatory information. The relevant USEPA, OSHA and State of Iowa regulations should be consulted prior to undertaking activities involving the demolition, renovation or maintenance of surface coatings that contain lead.

4.2 Lead Paint Testing

The following surface coatings were collected as part of the lead paint testing:

bold = lead-based paint

This evaluation report can help the Owner develop a plan for renovating the building by having concentrations of lead in the paint identified. It is our understanding that the information in this report will be provided to the contractors so that appropriate precautions can be made to minimize worker exposure to lead. If surface coatings with lead containing paint are handled improperly, exposure could occur to workers and future occupants of the facility.

5.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Asbestos was identified in the following materials:

• Brown Mastic under Floor Tile in Stair Landing of House A.

• Black Tar Pipe Wrap at AHUs above Stair Landings in Houses A & B

Lead-based paint (>0.5% by weight) was identified in the painted plaster ceiling above the stair landing in House A.

6.0 LIMITATIONS

The results, findings, conclusions, and recommendations expressed in this report are based solely on conditions noted during the March 31, 2026, Atlas inspection of the areas / surfaces to be disturbed in the stair landings of Houses A & B as part of the NCCF AHU Replacement Project.

Although Atlas performed limited destructive sampling to access suspect ACM, additional suspect but unsampled materials could be located under existing building materials, in isolated areas or in other concealed areas. Therefore, if suspect materials are encountered during renovation/demolition activities that do not appear to have been characterized as non-ACM, samples should be collected and analyzed prior to disturbing these materials or the materials can be assumed to be ACM and abated accordingly. Atlas’s selection of sample locations and frequency of sampling was based on the inspector’s assumption that like materials in the same

EMSL maintains liability limited to cost of analysis . Interpretation and use of test results are the responsibility of the client. This report relates only to the samples reported above, and may not be reproduced, except in full, without written approval by EMSL. EMSL bears no responsibility for sample collection activities or analytical method limitations . The report reflects the samples as received.

Results are generated from the field sampling data (sampling volumes and areas, locations, etc.) provided by the client on the Chain of Custody. Samples are within quality control criteria and met method specifications unless otherwise noted. The above analyses were performed in general compliance with Appendix E to Subpart E of 40 CFR (previously EPA 600/M4-82-020 “Interim Method”) but augmented with procedures outlined in the 1993 (”final”) version of the method. This report must not be used by the client to claim product certification, approval, or endorsement by NVLAP, NIST or any agency of the federal government. Non- friable organically bound materials present a problem matrix and therefore EMSL recommends gravimetric reduction prior to analysis . Unless requested by the client, building materials manufactured with multiple layers (i.e. linoleum, wallboard, etc.) are reported as a single sample. Estimation of uncertainty is available on request.

b. Furnish and install air-cooled condensing units.

2. Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing Work shall include, but is not necessarily limited to:

a. Furnish complete testing, adjusting, and balancing as specified in Section 23 05 93, including, but not limited to, air systems.

1.3 WORK SEQUENCE

A. All work that will produce excessive noise or interference with normal building operations, as determined by the Owner, shall be scheduled with the Owner. It may be necessary to schedule such work during unoccupied hours. The Owner reserves the right to determine when restricted construction hours will be required.

1.4 DIVISION OF WORK BETWEEN MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL & CONTROL

CONTRACTORS

A. Definitions:

1. "Mechanical Contractors" refers to the following:

a. Air Conditioning and Ventilating Contractor.

b. Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing Contractor.

IMEG #26001283.00 23 05 00 - 2

2. Motor Control Wiring: The wiring associated with the remote operation of the magnetic coils of magnetic motor starters or relays, or the wiring that permits direct cycling of motors by means of devices in series with the motor power wiring. In the latter case the devices are usually single phase and are usually connected to the motor power wiring through a manual motor starter having "Manual-Off-Auto" provisions.

3. Control devices such as start-stop push buttons, thermostats, pressure switches, flow switches, relays, etc., generally represent the types of equipment associated with motor control wiring.

4. Motor control wiring is single phase and usually 120 volts. In some instances, the voltage will be the same as the motor power wiring. Generally, where the motor power wiring exceeds 120 volts, a control transformer is used to give a control voltage of 120 volts.

5. Temperature Control Wiring: The wiring associated with the operation of a motorized damper, solenoid valve or motorized valve, etc., either modulating or two-position, as opposed to wiring which directly powers or controls a motor used to drive equipment such as fans, pumps, etc.

a. This wiring will be from a 120 volt source and may continue as 120 volt, or be reduced in voltage (24 volt) in which case a control transformer shall be furnished as part of the temperature control wiring.

6. Control Motor: An electric device used to operate dampers, valves, etc. It may be two-position or modulating. Conventional characteristics of such a motor are 24 volts, 60 cycles, 1 phase, although other voltages may be encountered.

7. Voltage is generally specified and scheduled as distribution voltage. Motor submittals may be based on utilization voltage if it corresponds to the correct distribution voltage.

Distribution/Nominal Voltage Utilization Voltage

120 115 208 200 240 230 277 265 480 460

B. General:

1. The purpose of these Specifications is to outline the Electrical and Mechanical Contractor's responsibilities related to electrical work required The exact wiring requirements for much of the equipment cannot be determined until the systems have been selected and submittals reviewed. Therefore, the electrical drawings show only known wiring related to such items. All wiring not shown on the electrical drawings, but required for mechanical systems, is the responsibility of the Mechanical Contractor.

2. Where the drawings require the Electrical Contractor to wire between equipment furnished by the Mechanical Contractor, such wiring shall terminate at terminals provided in the equipment. The Mechanical Contractor shall provide complete electrical power/controls wiring diagrams and supervision to the Electrical Contractor and designate the terminal numbers for correct wiring.

3. All electrical work shall conform to the National Electrical Code. All provisions of the Electrical Specifications concerning wiring, protection, etc., apply to wiring provided by the Mechanical Contractor unless noted otherwise.

IMEG #26001283.00 23 05 00 - 3

C. Mechanical Contractor's Responsibility:

1. Assumes responsibility for internal wiring of all equipment provided by the Mechanical Contractor, for example:

a. Condensing Units.

b. Package Air Handling Units.

2. Assumes all responsibility for the Temperature Control wiring, when the Temperature Control Contractor is a Subcontractor to the Mechanical Contractor.

3. Shall verify all existing equipment sizes and capacities where units are to be modified, moved or replaced. Contractor shall notify Architect/Engineer of any discrepancies prior to ordering new units or replacement parts, including replacements of equipment motors.

4. Temperature Control Contractor's Responsibility:

a. Wiring of all devices needed to make the Temperature Control System functional.

b. Verifying any control wiring on the electrical drawings as being by the Electrical

Contractor. All wiring required for the Control System, but not shown on the electrical drawings, is the responsibility of the Temperature Control Contractor.

c. Coordinating equipment locations (such as relays, transformers, etc.) with the Electrical Contractor, where wiring of the equipment is by the Electrical Contractor.

5. This Contractor is responsible for coordination of utilities with all other Contractors. If any field coordination conflicts are found, the Contractor shall coordinate with other Contractors to determine a viable layout.

D. Electrical Contractor's Responsibility:

1. Provides all combination starters, manual starters and disconnect devices shown on the Electrical Drawings or indicated to be by the Electrical Contractor on the Mechanical Drawings or Specifications.

2. Installs and wires all remote control devices furnished by the Mechanical Contractor or Temperature Control Contractor when so noted on the Electrical Drawings.

3. Provides motor control and temperature control wiring, where so noted on the drawings.

4. Coordinate with the Mechanical Contractor for size of motors and/or other electrical devices involved with repair or replacement of existing equipment.

5. This Contractor is responsible for coordination of utilities with all other Contractors. If any field coordination conflicts are found, the Contractor shall coordinate with other Contractors to determine a viable layout.

1.5 QUALITY ASSURANCE

A. Contractor's Responsibility Prior to Submitting Pricing Data:

1. The Contractor is responsible for constructing complete and operating systems. The Contractor acknowledges and understands that the Contract Documents are a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional object, subject to human interpretation. This representation may include imperfect data, interpreted codes, utility guidelines, three-dimensional conflicts, and required field coordination items. Such deficiencies can be corrected when identified prior to ordering material and starting

IMEG #26001283.00 23 05 00 - 4

installation. The Contractor agrees to carefully study and compare the individual Contract Documents and report at once in writing to the Design Team any deficiencies the Contractor may discover. The Contractor further agrees to require each subcontractor to likewise study the documents and report at once any deficiencies discovered.

2. The Contractor shall resolve all reported deficiencies with the Architect/Engineer prior to awarding any subcontracts, ordering material, or starting any work with the Contractor's own employees. Any work performed prior to receipt of instructions from the Design Team will be done at the Contractor's risk.

B. Qualifications:

1. Only products of reputable manufacturers are acceptable.

2. All Contractors and subcontractors shall employ only workers skilled in their trades.

C. Compliance with Codes, Laws, Ordinances:

1. Conform to all requirements of the State of Iowa's Codes, Laws, Ordinances and other regulations having jurisdiction.

2. If there is a discrepancy between the codes and regulations and these specifications, the Architect/Engineer shall determine the method or equipment used.

3. If the Contractor notes, at the time of bidding, that any parts of the drawings or specifications do not comply with the codes or regulations, Contractor shall inform the Architect/Engineer in writing, requesting a clarification. If there is insufficient time for this procedure, Contractor shall submit with the proposal a separate price to make the system comply with the codes and regulations.

4. All changes to the system made after letting of the contract, to comply with codes or requirements of Inspectors, shall be made by the Contractor without cost to the Owner.
