Asbestos Good Faith Inspection <br /> 3703 Railway Avenue <br /> Everett, WA 98201 <br /> Dear Mr. Palacios, <br /> Executive Summary: Alternative Environmental Technologies (AET) conducted an asbestos <br /> good faith survey of the subject site on May 23, 2014. A total of 12 samples of suspect asbestos <br /> containing materials (ACM) were taken including roof insulation, roof vent mastic, 2' x 4' <br /> suspended ceiling tiles, gypsum wallboard composites, vinyl flooring, brown cove base and <br /> mastic. The laboratory reported that the black mastic (3% Chrysotile asbestos) around the roof <br /> vent and wallboard joint compound contained (2% Chrysotile) asbestos, however the multilayered <br /> full depth sample contained <1 % asbestos. The follow-up point count method was reported by <br /> the laboratory to contain 0.25% asbestos. Since this material is less than 1 % asbestos it is not <br /> considered an asbestos project. LNI still has some restrictions for worker protection, which are <br /> covered below in the Discussion Item 5. Wallboard Systems. The remaining materials were <br /> reported as non-detect for the presence of asbestos. It was reported that the reason for the <br /> inspection was to comply with current regulations for a good faith inspection of building materials <br /> prior to demolition of the building on site. In addition to the asbestos survey, an inventory of <br /> fluorescent light fixture components has been provided and recommended for recycling and <br /> proper disposal of fluorescent tubes and ballasts due to the likely presence of the hazardous <br /> chemicals, mercury and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), respectively. Recycling was also <br /> recommended for old computers, electronics, televisions, air conditioners and refrigerators left at <br /> the site. <br /> Regulatory Overview: Asbestos: The Puget Sound and Clean Air Agency, Regulation III, Article <br /> 4.02(a) requires an asbestos survey, before a renovation or demolition, by an Accredited Building <br /> Inspector using random sampling procedures contained in 40 CFR 763.86. In addition, the owner, <br /> or owner's representative, is required to keep a copy of the Good Faith Inspection at the job site <br /> for any contractor's doing work in the building (WAC 296-62-07721(b), WAC 296-155-755(9)). <br /> Background Information <br /> Date(s) of Field Investigation: 05/23/14 <br /> Date of Report Submittal: 05/30/14 <br /> Building address: 3703 Railway Avenue, Everett, WA 98201 <br /> Building Owner/ Representative: Mike Palacios <br /> Area Surveyed: Roof, Exterior& Interior of Office Building On site <br /> 5129 irvergr,.>-n bVay D9 <br /> Eves WA 981.03 bf af.1- aherffasrve¢echn©Iogcoin <br /> 425 232 CRf50 425 514 0444 <br />
