Regulated Building Material Inspection Wrerracon <br /> Port of Everett Marina - Equator Shed n Everett, Washington <br /> June 22, 2023 !, Terracon Project No. 81227459 <br /> 3.0 Asbestos Assessment <br /> 3.1 Building Assessment <br /> Mr. Jacob Lindberg and Ms. Lydia Slugen, both Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act <br /> (AHERA)-accredited building inspectors (Certification 185923, expiration date: 8/10/2023 and <br /> Certification 189354, expiration date: 5/15/2024, respectively) from Terracon, performed the <br /> sampling on June 13, 2023. Terracon's inspector collected 12 samples of materials identified <br /> as suspect ACM. <br /> This inspection was conducted using a modified protocol adapted from AHERA. The protocol is <br /> as follows: <br /> Identify suspect asbestos-containing materials. <br /> * Group materials into homogeneous sampling areas/materials. <br /> a Quantify each homogeneous material and collect representative samples. The <br /> number of samples collected of miscellaneous materials was determined by <br /> the inspector. <br /> * Samples of each material were taken to the substrate, ensuring that all <br /> components and layers of the material were included. <br /> Sample locations are referenced on the field data forms according to sample <br /> number. <br /> a Sampling was performed by an AHERA-accredited building inspector, and the <br /> use of proper protective equipment and procedures were followed. <br /> 3.2 Sampling Procedures <br /> The sampling was conducted using the following procedures: <br /> 1. Spread the plastic drop cloth (if needed) and set up other equipment, e.g., ladder. <br /> 2. Don protective equipment (respirator and protective clothing if needed). <br /> 3. Label sample container with its identification number and record number. Record sample <br /> location and type of material sampled on a sampling data form. <br /> 4. Moisten area where sample is to be extracted (spray the immediate area with water). <br /> 5. Extract sample using a clean knife, drill capsule, or cork boring tool to cut out or scrape <br /> off approximately one tablespoon of the material. Penetrate all layers of material. <br /> 6. Place sample in a container and tightly seal it. <br /> 7. Wipe the exterior of the container with a wet wipe to remove material that may have <br /> adhered to it during sampling. <br /> S. Clean tools with wet wipes and wet mop; or vacuum area with HEPA vacuum to clean <br /> all debris. <br /> 9. Discard protective clothing, wet wipes and rags, cartridge filters, and drop cloth in a <br /> labeled plastic waste bag. <br /> 3.3 Analytical Methodology <br /> Suspect ACMs were sampled in general accordance with 40 CFR 763.86 by an Environmental <br /> Protection Agency (EPA) AHERA-accredited building inspector. Each sample was collected and <br /> stored in a heavy-duty, self-sealing plastic bag, and delivered to NVL Laboratories in Seattle, <br /> Explore with us 2 <br />
