EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AirQuest Environmental, Inc. ("AirQuest') performed a survey for asbestos -containing materials (ACM) at the Stock Room at CVS Store #4254, located at 301 Northeast Prima Vista Boulevard, Port Saint Lucie, Florida 34983 ("the site"). The survey was performed on September 21, 2018, by AirQuest Project Manager, Mr. Nicholas Nalepa, an EPA -accredited Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) Asbestos Inspector (see Appendix I). The purpose of the survey was to locate and identify ACM within select building materials inside the stock ro . The results of our observation and laboratory analysis did not identify ACM in the samples collected from the site. At the request o 1ng materials to be impacted by upcoming renovation activities to the Stock Room, as depicted in the Client provided diagram. The remaining interior building materials/areas, the exterior and roof of the building were not included in the scope of the inspection. Destructive sampling procedures were not used to access the interior of wall cavities, fire doors, or above hard ceilings. If any materials are encountered during renovation activities that were not sampled in this report, the materials should not be disturbed until they have been sampled and identified as non -ACM through laboratory analysis. Project #14419 1 Asbestos Survey AirQuest Environmental, Inc. 2 INTRODUCTION AND SITE DESCRIPTION The Stock Room at CVS Store #4254, located at 301 Northeast Prima Vista Boulevard, Port Saint Lucie, Florida, was a in a two-story commercial building. At the request of the Client, the scope of the survey was limited to interior building materials to be impacted by upcoming renovation activities to the Stock Room, as depicted in the Client provided diagram. The remaining interior building materials/areas, the exterior and roof of the building were not included in the scope of the inspection. AirQuest conducted this survey in general accordance with the scope and limitations of National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs) and AirQuest's proposal number 14419 dated September 13, 2018. The scope of services for this project consisted of the following five steps: ➢ Building Walk -Through and Observations, ➢ Bulk Sampling of Suspect ACM, ➢ Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) Analysis of Bulk Samples, ➢ Hazard Assessment and Evaluation, and ➢ Final Report Preparation. On September 21, 2018, AirQuest Project Manager, Nicholas Nalepa, conducted an asbestos sampling survey of suspect ACM associated with the pending renovations at the site. The ceiling and interior walls of the stockroom were constructed of drywall system. Interior walls in the break room area were finished with vinyl floor coving. The floor on the ground level was a concrete slab and the break room area floor was finished with vinyl floor tile. Flooring mastic was present. Project #14419 2 Asbestos Survey 3 SURVEY ANALYSIS METHODS AND AirQuest Environmental, Inc. LABORATORY The sampling protocol used generally follows AHERA guidelines. AHERA was promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1987 and regulated public schools. Suspect materials are differentiated into three categories: surfacing material, thermal system insulation, or miscellaneous material. Surfacing material is anything that is sprayed or troweled onto a surface; thermal system insulation is material used to insulate HVAC pipes, tanks, etc., and miscellaneous material is any other type of material. During the survey, surfacing and miscellaneous materials were observed. A homogeneous area is defined as an area of surfacing material, thermal system insulation material, or miscellaneous material that is uniform in color and texture. A homogeneous area is not limited to only one room, but can be found in several rooms. Sample selection in the building was determined by identifying the homogeneous areas and basing sampling locations upon these areas. In conducting the building inspection in compliance with local, state, and federal regulations, all suspected ACM which were accessible to the inspector, were either sampled to confirm the actual presence of asbestos, or assumed to contain asbestos. Building areas between walls, under floors, under concrete slabs and above permanent ceilings, all of which could not be accessed, were not visually inspected nor were materials therein sampled as a part of this building inspection. Due to the fact that over 3,600 different building products are recognized as asbestos -containing building materials, it cannot be said that all such products, which may be present at the site, have or could be identified. Analysis was performed using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) with dispersion staining. The laboratory is rated proficient through National Institute of Standards and Technology- National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (MIST-NVLAP) for bulk asbestos analysis. It is important to note that the method of bulk sample analysis, PLM, is not 100% absolute in the identification of ACM. There are many factors which may contribute to false negatives being reported. Some of the more common factors include non -homogeneity of the building material and the optical variations of the microscopist. In order to obtain an absolute analysis of a building material, any reported negative sample suspect of being asbestos or any material not sampled should be analyzed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) with energy dispersive x-ray analysis (EDAX) for bulk sample confirmation. Interpretation ofTEM results must be viewed with caution as these procedures are not presently recognized by EPA regulations. However, they are useful analytical techniques for confirmation of non -friable materials when PLM results are inconclusive. Project 414419 3 Asbestos Survey AirQuest Environmental, Inc. Because of the inherent limitations of PLM bulk sample analysis, the Owner may elect to re- analyze the reported negative PLM samples by TEM to determine whether they may be regulated under the asbestos NESHAP. This analytical technique is described in the EPA Guidance Document, EPA/600 R-93/1 16, July 1993, Test Method — Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials. This method, Analytical Electron Microscopy (AEM), also referred to as TEM, can often be a reliable method for the detection and positive identification of asbestos in some bulk building materials, both friable and nonfriable. The method is particularly applicable to bulk materials that contain a large amount of interfering materials that can be removed by ashing and/or dissolution and contain asbestos fibers that are not resolved by PLM techniques. Many floor tiles and plasters would be included in the type of sample. In combination with suitable specimen preparation techniques, the AEM method can also be used to quantify asbestos concentrations. The TEM analytical methodology is also referred to in an EPA Advisory, Federal Register, Vol. 59, No. 146, August 1, 1994, Advisory Regarding Availability of an Improved Asbestos Bulk Sample Analysis Sample Test Method; Supplementary Information on Bulk Sample Collection and Analysis. The Advisory states that this approach should be considered for the following circumstances: (1) Floor tiles which may contain thin fibers and which were analyzed under the 1982 PLM method and found not to be asbestos -containing; and (2) materials such as hard wall and acoustical plaster, stucco or other similar multi -layered materials or systems which were not analyzed and reported by layers (discrete strata). NESHAP, 40 CFR Part 763, Section 61.141, revised July 1, 1996, defines ACM as any material containing more than one (1) percent asbestos as determined using the method specified in Appendix E, Subpart E, 40 CFR Part 763, Section 1, PLM, that, when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized or reduced to a powder by hand pressure. If the asbestos content is less than ten (10) percent as determined by a method other than point counting by PLM, verify the asbestos content by point counting using PLM. Estimates of quantities of ACM where given are based upon the identification of suspect material where suspect ACM are located behind walls, above ceilings, beneath carpeting, or other concealed conditions. Where the quantities cannot be verified, the estimate is based upon the conditions present during the survey. These estimates are not to be considered absolute and should be verified when the ACM is exposed. Project # 14419 4 Asbestos Survey AirQuest Environmental, Inc. 4 SUSPECT ASBESTOS -CONTAINING MATERIALS Four (4) homogeneous areas (HA) of suspect material were identified and a total of eleven (11) samples were collected. The laboratory split the samples into layers, resulting in the analysis of sixteen (16) samples. Sample descriptions and laboratory results are summarized in Table 1. A copy of the laboratory report and chain of custody record is included in Appendix II. Diagrams provided by the Client is included in Appendix III.
