Additional Property Attributes

Standard and other historical resources were able to document that the first developed use of the subject property occurred prior to 1905 with the construction of a dwelling in the western portion. The property remained residential until between 1910 and 1926 when the dwelling was demolished. The property was redeveloped with the current structure in 1929. The structure was used for a residence by the college and school until 2000 when it was converted to office use.

No RECS were identified during completion of this Phase I ESA, however, the following BERs were identified:

* Based on the construction of the buildings pre-1978 when Federal regulations banned the use of lead-based paint (LBP), there is the potential for existing paint to be lead based or contain lead. Several of the painted surfaces were observed chipping and peeling, likely from water-damage. It is understood that that building is planned for renovation.

* Suspect asbestos containing materials were observed in the building. Due to water damage, the materials were observed to be in poor condition. It is understood that significant interior renovations are planned.

* Suspect mold growth and evidence of water intrusion were identified on various building materials throughout the building. The source of the water intrusion is likely from building envelope issues, leaking pipes and roof leaks.

6/20/2024 ACM Survey:

PM collected a total of 82 bulk materials samples from 25 different HA. Photographs depicting HA are in Appendix A. The samples were placed inside laboratory provided sealed bags and submitted under chain of custody (COC) to a third-party laboratory for analysis. Bulk samples were analyzed for asbestos content by EMSL Analytical, Inc. (EMSL), a National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) accredited laboratory.

* The results of the asbestos survey indicate ACM were identified in the Mary Wilson House, which will require removal by a licensed abatement contractor prior to renovation activities. These materials include:

* Black Mastic with Non-ACM White Tape on Black Foamglass Insulation (HA22) - 35 Linear Feet
* Roofing Materials (HA25) - 2,100 Square Feet

POTENTIAL CLEANUP ALTERNATIVES

The regulations require work practice standards designed to minimize and control the release of asbestos fibers during building demolition or renovation, waste packaging, transportation, and disposal. The objective of the asbestos cleanup is to reduce or eliminate the potential risk of airborne asbestos fibers to workers and the public both prior to and during demolition of the building.

In order to be considered effective, the remedial alternative selected for the subject property needs to minimize the potential for human exposure to ACM. Two potential alternatives have been selected for further evaluation and comparison:

* Alternative #1: No Action
* Alternative #2: Asbestos Removal and Disposal

Each alternative was evaluated for applicability to the subject property and its feasibility and is further discussed in the following sections.

Alternative #1: "No Action"

The "no action" cleanup alternative is included in the evaluation as a standard to compare other remedial action in order to compare and contrast any significant reduction in site risk, as necessary. For the "no action" alternative, the property owner would not take any action to abate or remediate the issues identified at the subject property and the asbestos would remain in the building. This alternative does not include a means to mitigate or eliminate potential exposure of building materials both during and following redevelopment and does not meet the objectives of the project.

Effectiveness: This alternative is not effective in controlling the release of contaminants or achieving project goals. ACM have been identified in the buildings; therefore, any potential demolition activities would release friable asbesto
