1 Introduction
The purpose of this report is to establish the findings of the Limited Renovation Survey performed
at the subject site. The survey was performed to determine asbestos and/or lead content, if any,
within the materials that may be disturbed during limited renovations at the subject property.
Materials that may possibly contain asbestos/lead, yet not discussed within this report must be
presumed to be Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) or Lead-based Paint (LBP) until laboratory
analysis proves otherwise.
The following items provide the general parameters and scope of this survey report:
• Inspected by: David Palmer
• CSST/CAC Certification #, CDPH Certification #: 13-5112, LRC-00005798
• Scope of Inspection Areas: Hobby Room, Hallway, Entry, Bedrooms, Bathroom
• This is a modified survey and results are limited to the specific areas and
materials sampled. This report is not valid for use outside of the specific areas
slated for renovation at this exact time or by individuals not associated with the
currently proposed renovation work.
2 Field Survey and Analytical Methodology
2.1 Asbestos
Bulk samples of suspect ACMs were obtained by cutting small pieces of the material and
placing the bulk pieces into labeled sample containers. To ensure the samples are
representative of materials in the building, bulk samples were cut (where feasible) to a depth
such that the entire thickness of the suspect ACM was sampled. Sampling tools were cleaned
by wiping with disposable wet cloths after each sample was collected to prevent cross-
contamination of asbestos fibers, if present. Sampling locations and material types were
recorded on the sample location diagram and chain-of-custody sheets, which are provided in
the attachments.
The bulk samples were transported under chain-of-custody to Eurofins EMLab P&K for analysis.
EMLab is a participating laboratory in the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST)-administered National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). Laboratory
testing was conducted in compliance with Appendix A, Subpart F, 40 CFR Part 763, Section 1,
Polarized Light Microscopy. All bulk samples submitted for testing were analyzed for asbestos
content by PLM using "EPA Interim Method #600/R-93/116 (polarized light microscopy with
optical dispersion staining)". See attached analytical report for address and phone number of
the laboratory.
2.2 Lead
The procedures followed during the inspection are based on the highest industry standards used
for residential properties which can be found in the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) “Lead: Renovation, Repair and Painting Guidelines” (EPA 40 CFR Part 745, April
22, 2008 - Part II). The following is a general description of sampling activities: Lead sampling
painted/coated surfaces that will be impacted by emergency repair and renovation activities were
identified and sampled accordingly. The purpose of the inspection was solely to identify surface
coatings that are lead-based paint (LBP) or lead-containing paint (LCP). Surfaces not slated for
removal were not sampled and MUST be assumed to contain LBP unless further testing confirms
the absence of regulated levels of lead in paint. Sampling of painted/coated surfaces with suspect
LBP/LCP were completed by removal of approximately 2 square inches of paint from accessible
and suspect painted/coated surfaces. If XRF analysis was performed, sampling was completed
using an X-Ray Fluorescence Analyzer (XRF). The sampled surfaces may include, but not limited
to, the following: walls, baseboards, window components, door components, crown molding,
wainscoting, wood flooring varnish, eaves, stairwell rails, etc.
Note that both the US EPA and the CDPH define LBP as any paint or other surface coating
containing an amount of lead equal to or exceeding 1.0 milligram per square centimeter (mg/cm2)
surface area of lead or 0.5 % lead by weight. DOSH or Cal/OSHA regulates all construction-
related work where an individual may be exposed to lead, regardless of the lead concentration in
paint or other surface coatings. Objective data showing that a specific paint or coating contains
less than 0.06 % lead by weight (equivalent to 600 parts per million [ppm]) constitutes a “negative
initial determination” whereby that paint/coating may be “installed” or otherwise handled in an
intact state by non-protected/trained personnel. However, any other activities such as cutting,
sanding, scraping, manual demolition, etcetera, require compliance with Title 8 CCR Section
1532.1 irrespective of lead content.
All lead laboratory testing was conducted in compliance with US EPA Method SW 846
3050B/7000B flame atomic absorption spectrometry analysis by the laboratory listed
above. See attached analytical report for address and phone number as needed.
3 Results of Analysis
3.1 ASBESTOS
Quantifiable detection limits using this type of analysis are approximately one percent. For
materials in which asbestos is detected, but at levels below one percent, the result is reported as
“<1%,” but not further quantified. For those materials where asbestos was not detected, even in
trace amounts, results are reported as non-detect (ND). Materials containing one-tenth of one
percent or greater asbestos (> 0.1%) are considered asbestos-containing construction materials
(ACCMs) according to California Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
regulations, and materials containing greater than one percent (>1%) asbestos are considered to
be ACMs according to federal regulations.
Homogeneous material is considered NOT to contain Asbestos ONLY if the results of ALL
samples required to be collected from the area show asbestos in amounts of less than the
regulated amount (<0.1% in California). A homogeneous area shall be determined to contain
Asbestos (ACM) based on a finding that the results of at least one sample collected from that
area shows that asbestos is present (40 CFR 763.87). Laboratory results and chain of custody
are attached.
A summary of materials sampled, condition, relative quantity, and results can be found in
the attached table for easy review and distribution.
3.2 LEAD
Lead-Based Paint (LBP): Paint or other surface coating that contains lead in excess of 1.0
milligrams per centimeter squared (mg/cm2) or 5,000 parts per million (0.7 or 600 parts per million
for Los Angeles County). LBP removal and disposal must be performed in accordance with CDPH
Regulations as well as California OSHA requirements.
Lead-Containing Paint (LCP): painted material or surfaces containing lead levels between 0.1 and
1.0 mg/cm2 or 600 to 5000 ppm of lead. LCP removal and disposal must be performed in
accordance with California OSHA regulations and can be handled by a regular contractor who
has prepared a California OSHA lead compliance plan/program for the protection of its workers.
LCP is not a hazard to occupants per the EPA, HUD, and Cal/DPH and thus not regulated by
those agencies.
Lead-Safe Paint (LSP): painted material or surfaces containing lead levels between <0.1 mg/cm2
or <600 ppm of lead which is equivalent to the lead amount in current cans of paint sold over the
counter throughout the US (approved by the Consumer Product Safety Commission).
A summary of materials sampled, condition, and results can be found in the attached table
for easy review and distribution.
4 Executive Summary / Recommendations
In light of Charles Taylor Environmental’s site assessment and analytical results, the following
recommendations should be adhered to in order to eliminate the potential exposure of individuals
to airborne asbestos fibers or lead based paint:
Proceed normally with renovations if NO Asbestos/Lead was detected.
Properly remove all ACM/ACCM or LBP/LCP that may be disturbed.
Regularly monitor ACM/ACCM or LBP/LCP that is currently in good condition.
Properly repair or remove all damaged ACM/ACCM and/or LBP/LCP.
Adhere to the following regulatory requirements.
If "any level" of asbestos is detected, Cal-OSHA still requires applicable worker
protections, training, communication, notification, and engineering controls in
accordance with CCR Title 8 Section 1529.
5 Regulatory Requirements
5.1 ASBESTOS
This survey was performed in compliance with all applicable requirements of the Asbestos Hazard
Emergency Response Act (AHERA) 40 CFR 763, Cal/OSHA Asbestos Construction Standard
Title 8 CCR 1529, The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 1403, as
well as the National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) 40 CFR 61
Subpart M.
Current applicable Federal, State and Local statutes specify work practice requirements for
demolition and/or renovation activities, and the associated disturbance of asbestos-containing
material, as well as the storage and disposal of asbestos-containing waste material. Proper
notification, removal techniques for asbestos-containing material, clean-up procedures and waste
storage and disposal requirements are mandated in connection with renovation or demolition
activities. Mandatory ten days or emergency asbestos removal notification is required by EPA
and the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD Rule 1403) these agencies
require proper notification prior to the removal of 100 square feet and over of ACM.
Current Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Federal, State (CALDOSH) and
local regulatory agencies mandated that ACM regardless of quantity shall be handled (e.g.,
removal, repair, etc) by Asbestos trained and qualified individuals or Contractors. These identified
ACMs should be removed by State licensed Asbestos Abatement Contractors prior to any
demolition or construction activities if these ACMs would be disturbed or impacted.
Where disturbed ACM is >1% asbestos, a Procedure 5 notification to the local NESHAP
enforcement authority (South Coast Air Quality Management District- SCAQMD) must be
submitted along with a written scope of work and be approved prior to the start of abatement
activities. Areas covered by SCAQMD include Los Angeles County, Orange County, Riverside
County, and San Bernardino County.
It is Federal, State and Local agency requirements to maintain proof of compliance (asbestos
handling records) and disposal of asbestos (waste chain of custody) by owner. Asbestos
responsibility and ownership are forever. An EPA/State of California certified and approved
Asbestos Abatement Contractor and Hazardous Waste Hauler must perform the asbestos
abatement and decontamination, and transport to a State approved landfill.
5.2 LEAD
The California Department of Public Health currently defines LBP as paint with lead levels:
• Equal to or exceeding 1.0 milligram per square centimeter (mg/cm2) or 0.5 percent
(%) by weight.
However, the California Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulates paint with lead
levels:
• Equal to or exceeding 0.1 mg/cm2 or 0.06 percent (%) by weight.
Lead-Based Paint (LBP): Paint or other surface coating that contains lead in excess of 1.0
milligrams per centimeter squared (mg/cm2) or 5,000 parts per million (0.7 or 600 parts per million
for Los Angeles County). LBP removal and disposal must be performed in accordance with CDPH
Regulations as well as California OSHA requirements.
Lead-Containing Paint (LCP): painted material or surfaces containing lead levels between 0.1
and 1.0 mg/cm2 or 600 to 5000 ppm of lead. LCP removal and disposal must be performed in
accordance with California OSHA regulations and can be handled by a regular contractor who
has prepared a California OSHA lead compliance plan/program for the protection of its workers.
LCP is not a hazard to occupants per the EPA, HUD, and Cal/DPH and thus not regulated by
those agencies.
Lead-Safe Paint (LSP): painted material or surfaces containing lead levels between <0.1 mg/cm2
or <600 ppm of lead which is equivalent to the lead amount in current cans of paint sold over the
counter throughout the US (approved by the Consumer Product Safety Commission).
Charles Taylor Environmental highly recommends that a qualified abatement contractor perform
work where lead concentration is equal to or above 600 parts per million and/or 1.0 milligram per
square centimeter or where regulated levels of lead are identified.
