Lead Survey Report Irerracon <br />Old Bethel Elementary School a Midland, North Carolina <br />November 29, 2010 n Terracon Project No. 71107253 <br />3.1 Visual Assessment <br />Our survey activities began with visual observation of areas to identify apparent unique <br />combinations of suspect lead paint (LP). A unique combination of paint is based on paint color, <br />building component and substrate. Assessment was conducted throughout visually accessible <br />interior and exterior areas. <br />3.2 Physical Assessment <br />A visual assessment of each unique combination of suspect LP was conducted to assess the <br />condition of the paint. The condition of the paint was documented to be intact, peeling, flaking, <br />chipping or cracking. <br />3.3 Sample Collection <br />Based on results of the visual observation, bulk samples of suspect LP were collected. One <br />random sample of suspect LP was collected from each unique combination. Samples were <br />placed in sealable containers and labeled with unique sample numbers using an indelible marker. <br />Seven (7) samples of suspect LP were collected from building A. <br />Eight (8) samples of suspect LP were collected from building B. <br />Thirteen (13) samples of suspect LP were collected from building C. <br />Four (4) samples of suspect LP were collected from building D. <br />Seven (7) samples of suspect LP were collected from building E. <br />Fourteen (14) samples of suspect LP were collected from the exterior outbuildings. <br />3.4 Sample Analysis <br />Samples were submitted under chain of custody to EMSL Analytical, Inc. (EMSL) located in <br />Kernersville, North Carolina for analysis. Suspect LP samples were analyzed by Flame Atomic <br />Absorption according to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method SW 846 30508/7006. <br />EMSL is accredited under the Environmental Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELLAP) <br />(Accreditation No. 102564). <br />4.0 REGULATORY OVERVIEW <br />Work that would disturb lead paint needs to be performed within compliance of OSHA regulations <br />29 CFR 1926.62. Terracon recommends personnel air sampling of workers that perform work on <br />surfaces with lead paint. Personnel sampling should be performed in compliance with OSHA <br />regulations. <br />Reliable ■ Responsive ■ Convenient ■ Innovative <br />G -6 <br />3 <br />Attachment number 9 <br />Page 376 <br />
