RE: Limited Asbestos and Lead Survey
BACKGROUND
City of Carlsbad with EnviroPure Solutions, LLC (EP Solutions) to perform a limited asbestos and lead survey designed to identify asbestos and/or lead containing materials/components at 3401 Monroe Street, Carlsbad, CA 92008. The survey is in preparation for the reported, planned remediation/mitigation and/or renovation/demolition select walls, ceilings, flooring, and/or roofing throughout the interior and immediate exterior of the single-story, slab-on-grade, commercial structure with a flat rolled roof system. EP Solutions understands that the renovation/remodel project will also involve a detached, single-story, cinder-block mechanical building.
Material(s) collection/sampling, handling, testing, and/or analysis was completed in accordance with Federal, State, and local regulations. The below findings are to be used in conjunction with the aforementioned interior/exterior construction/finish material(s) repair/removal/replacement, and are not intended for any other use. Involved parties/personnel should be furnished with a copy of this survey report prior to any construction-related work.
SURVEY
On August 8, 2023, Damian Bortz, Asbestos Building Inspector, Asbestos Contractor/Supervisor, and State of California Department of Public Health (CDPH) licensed Lead-Related Construction Sampling Technician (LRC-ST), accompanied by and/or under the direction of Tymere Duson, State of California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH or Cal/OSHA) Certified Site Surveillance Technician (CSST) and CDPH LRC-ST – and both supervised by Jeremy Gress, DOSH or Cal/OSHA Certified Asbestos Consultant (CAC) and CDPH licensed LRC Inspector/Assessor (LRC-I/A); visited the subject structures to complete the above-referenced project. EP Solutions proceeded with a walkthrough visual assessment and categorization of suspect asbestos/lead material(s)/component(s) followed by sampling/testing in the to-be-impacted area(s)/space(s). See attached General Sample(s) Location(s) Diagram(s) and EnviroPure Solutions, LLC Involved Personnel Accreditation(s).
Asbestos Assessment: The walkthrough assessment provided a visual inspection of the readily accessible portions of walls, ceilings, flooring, and roofing at the above-described commercial structure and mechanical building. Subsequent representative bulk sampling was performed following a modified Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA – 40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 763.86) protocol and in accordance with the Asbestos National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP – 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M, and/or its local delegated authority’s rule or regulation). All involved suspect material(s) was/were evaluated based on homogenous area (HA), material(s) type(s) – thermal system insulation (TSI), surfacing (S), and miscellaneous (M), and material(s) quantity(ies) as detailed in the table below. An HA is defined to include that TSI, surfacing material, or miscellaneous material that is uniform in general appearance (color, texture, and application) and perceived date of construction.
Material Type Quantity
(Square Feet) Number of Samples
Surfacing
Under 1,000 3
1,000 to 5,000 5
More than 5,000 7
TSI Any 3 (not including patches)
Miscellaneous Less than 5,000 3
More than 5,000 5
Using hand tools (hammer, chisel, box cutter, and etcetera) in combination with material(s) wetting via a spray/mist bottle containing soapy water, bulk samples were collected by extracting a section of selected material and placing it into a secure sampling container and/or plastic bag. Each sample was assigned a unique identifying number and recorded on a sample log and/or documented on/with a Chain of Custody (COC) form. Tool(s) decontamination to prevent cross contamination between sampling events was accomplished utilizing sanitary, disinfectant wipes. All sample(s) was/were then either hand delivered or shipped to an analyzing laboratory.

2 At the time of sampling, EP Solution’s representative also evaluated the condition and friability of the suspect asbestos containing materials. That having no visible damage and/or largely intact was considered to be in good (G) condition, whereas material(s) with less than 25 percent (%) localized and/or 10 % distributed damage was characterized as damaged (D). Material(s) with greater than 25 % localized and 10 % distributed damage was rated as significantly damaged (SD). Friability relates to whether or not, when dry, a material can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.
Lead Assessment: Lead sample(s) collection and/or X-ray fluorescence (XRF) device screening was conducted in accordance with Title 17 California Code of Regulations (CCR), Division 1, Chapter 8 and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD; Chapter 7) “Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing” (1995). Each suspect surface/substrate combination or component was initially observed at the time of the initial walkthrough to determine the appropriate number of readings and/or bulk paint chip sample(s). Where performed, paint layers (down to the substrate where feasible) were carefully obtained, using hand tools and soapy water. Individual sample(s) was/were then placed into leak tight containers/bags, identified on sample log(s)/Chain of Custody (COC) form(s), and submitted to an appropriately qualified analytical laboratory.
Instantaneous lead content reading(s) was/were obtained and recorded directly on COC(s) utilizing a handheld XRF device in lieu, addition to, or support of paint chip collection/sampling. The XRF analyzer provides simultaneous K- and L-shell lead (Pb) X-ray detection and analysis with automatic positive/negative decision and corrections for substrate bias and age of source to within a defined level of accuracy greater than or equal to 95 %. An equipment standardization check was performed prior to and at the completion of the survey’s XRF testing utilizing the manufacturer provided United States Department of Commerce National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Lead Paint Film standards. XRF screening was also done in accordance with manufacturer-specific Performance Characteristic Sheet (PCS; 2004 ed. 1).
Additionally, sampled/tested surface(s)/substrate(s) was/were visually evaluated for condition/damage. Those surface(s)/substrate(s) largely undamaged was/were considered intact (I). Those with minor to moderate blistering, flaking, chalking, delaminating, and etcetera up to 10 square feet for large area(s) and 10 % for small area(s) (window sill[s], baseboard[s], trim) was/were listed as fair (F). Small and large area(s) with greater than 10 square feet or 10 % damage, respectively, was/were determined to be in poor (P) condition.
RESULTS
Obtained bulk asbestos sample(s) was/were analyzed by EMSL Analytical, Inc. (EMSL) located at 8145 Ronson Road, Suite B, San Diego, CA, 92111; 858.499.1303. EMSL is a United States Department of Commerce NIST National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP; Lab Code 200855-0) accredited laboratory for analysis of asbestos content using the technique of polarized light microscopy (PLM) following the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) “Interim Method for the Detection of Asbestos in Bulk Insulation Samples” and “Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials,” EPA-600/M4-82-020 and EPA-600/R-93/116, respectively. EMSL is also accredited for bulk asbestos analysis (600/M4-82-020) through the California Water Boards, California State Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP; Certificate No. 2713).
As applicable, laboratory analysis(es) for lead content followed a modification of EPA SW-846 Methods 3050B and 7000B (acid digestion flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry) completed by an American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) Environmental Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELLAP; Laboratory ID 101650) accredited laboratory. Samples were shipped/transported to LA Testing, 5431 Industrial Drive, Huntington Beach, CA 92649; 714.828.4999. LA Testing is also accredited for lead hazardous waste analysis (EPA 6010B) through the California Water Boards, California State ELAP (Certificate No. 1406).
Asbestos Analysis: 30 sample(s) of suspect material(s) accounting for 78 layered analysis(es) was/were conducted utilizing PLM.
The following table presents a summary of asbestos findings by HA. Sample diagram(s) and laboratory results and COC(s) is/are attached. Note the Asbestos NESHAP requires an owner/operator to treat any material(s) determined under PLM to contain less than 10 % asbestos by visual area estimation as Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM). Or, the owner/operator may require laboratory verification by point counting, the result of which must be used. In the event that less than one-tenth % asbestos is reported under PLM point counting, be advised that pertinent sections of CCR, Title 8, Sections 1529, 3203, and 5194 may still apply; as well as Proposition 65 (Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986).

DISCUSSION
ACCM/ACM:
Where present, EP Solutions recommends -
• Notifying affected/involved parties of the presence of asbestos; • Using a registered/certified and experienced asbestos abatement contractor for removal purposes; and • Removal to, at a minimum, follow appropriate work practices and engineering controls as outlined in CCR, Title 8, Section 1529, Asbestos Standard as well as comply with local, State, and F ederal notification, handling/transport, and disposal requirements.
LCP/LBP:
When found, EP Solutions recommends -
• Notifying affected/involved parties of the presence of lead; • Using certified and experienced lead abatement workers for removal purposes (mandatory for LBP); and • Removal to, at minimum, comply with CCR Title 17 (LBP) and Title 8, Section 1532.1, Lead Standard (as applicable based on air monitoring and/or surface coating[s]/material[s] analyses), as well as comply with local, State, and Fede ral notification, handling/transport, and disposal requirements.
See attached Asbestos and Lead Regulations Summaries (not exhaustive) for additional information.
Material(s) concealed, hidden, or not identified in this survey within or beyond the reported scope of work as described in the BACKGROUND section above, should not be disturbed or impacted in any way until such time that assessment and/or laboratory testing can confirm the absence of asbestos and/or lead. It was not within the scope of EP Solutions’ inspection to remove surface materials or to investigate portions of the structure or materials that lay beneath the surface. EP Solutions’ selection of sample locations and frequency of sampling was based on observations at the time of survey and the assumption that like materials in the same area(s) are homogeneous in content/construction.
