Oliphant <br /> 2li <br /> Mr. Michael <br /> October 27,2011 <br /> Page 2 of 3 <br /> Six (6) bulk suspected ACM samples collected from the Site were hand delivered to , <br /> AmeriSci Los Angles laboratories for analysis. Bulk suspected ACM samples were <br /> analyzed by Polarized Light Microscopy Bulk Asbestos Analysis by EPA 6001M4-82- <br /> 020 per 40 CFR 763 (NVLAP) Lab 420346-0, CA ELAP #2322. AmeriSci Los ' <br /> Angeles is located at 24416 South Main Street, suite 308, Carson, California 90745. <br /> The phone number for AmeriSci Los Angeles is(310) 834-4868. <br /> All six (6) samples had concentrations of asbestos greater than one percent (1%). <br /> Materials with asbestos at concentrations of greater than one percent(1%) are defined <br /> as ACM. <br /> Samples A-1, A-2, A-3 and A-4 are friable asbestos. Asbestos that can be crumbled <br /> by hand pressure is called "friable". Friable asbestos is hazardous because asbestos <br /> fibers are easily released into the air by impact and deterioration. Analytical data <br /> sheets are provided in Appendix C of this report. <br /> For San Joaquin Valley <br /> Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) notification <br /> purposes,the quantity of mixed ACM soil is estimated to be 2,700 cubic feet. <br /> The following are the recommendations provided by URS for this specific scope: <br /> • Notify the SJVAPCD prior to asbestos abatement. <br /> • Require a licensed asbestos abatement contractor to perform the work_ ' <br /> • Asbestos contractor to provide a site specific Health and Safety Plan(HASP). <br /> • Require a Certified Asbestos Consultant(CAC)to oversee the work. <br /> • CAC to check contractor compliance with regulations and HASP. ' <br /> • CAC should perform perimeter air sampling during abatement activities. <br /> • CAC should conduct periodic and final visual inspections. <br />
