Pre-Demolition Regulated Building Materials Assessment and Cost Estimate ir <br /> �rracon <br /> 2600 Federal Avenue • Everett, Washington <br /> July 3, 2019 •Terracon Proposal No. P81197291 <br /> a Submit paint chip samples to a laboratory that is accredited by the American Industrial <br /> Hygiene Association (AIHA) for analysis of lead content. Samples will be analyzed using <br /> Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AA) according to EPA Method 7000B. <br /> a We assume that the buildings will not be considered a "child-occupied facilities" as defined <br /> by EPA regulation 40 CFR, Part 745. The lead paint chip sampling and analysis will not <br /> meet the requirements of the EPA's Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) <br /> regulations. <br /> In conducting the assessment for additional regulated building materials, Terracon will: <br /> r Complete an assessment and inventory potential PCB-containing light ballasts. <br /> o Magnetic ballasts are suspected of containing PCBs in the potting material or in <br /> the dielectric fluid in the capacitor. Electronic ballasts are not suspected of <br /> containing PCBs. Terracon will use a Philips Advance Sensor Switch "ballast <br /> checker" to identify magnetic versus electronic ballasts. The ballast checker is <br /> used by pointing the device at a powered light fixture, and the device indicates <br /> whether the ballast is electronic or magnetic <br /> Complete a visual assessment and inventory mercury-containing components <br /> (thermostats, fluorescent light tubes, bulbs, and switches). <br /> s Complete a visual assessment for the presence of other building-related regulated <br /> materials such as high intensity discharge lamps (HIDs including sodium vapor, mercury <br /> vapor, and metal halide) anticipated to be impacted. <br /> Terracon will prepare and submit one RBM assessment report that contains: <br /> 1. Summary of findings. <br /> 2. Estimates of quantities of accessible ACMs and assumed ACMs. <br /> 3. General locations of lead-containing paints. <br /> 4. Inventory of additional regulated building materials. <br /> 5. Laboratory analytical results. <br /> 6. Photographs of suspect ACM identified. <br /> 7. Hand sketched or electronic ACM extent and sample location diagrams. <br /> A reasonable effort will be made to identify suspect ACM as described in the Scope of Services <br /> above; however, this does not imply a guarantee that all possible locations of suspect ACM will <br /> be identified, as certain building materials within or outside of the project area may be hidden <br /> below solid substrates, within mechanical components, etc., or may be otherwise inaccessible. <br /> During future maintenance, renovation and demolition operations, additional materials may be <br /> uncovered. These materials should be treated as ACM until samples of that material can be <br /> collected by an AHERA-accredited building inspector and submitted for analysis to confirm <br /> Responsive • Resourceful • Reliable 4 <br />
