Physical Site Characterization

Background Information: The Former Chapman Valve/Crane Company (the site) is located adjacent to (south of) 121 Pinevale Street, Springfield, Hampden County, Massachusetts (MA). The site does not have a specific street number address, but is referred to as a commercial property along Pinevale Street on the City of Springfield Property Record Card, Map Identification Number 097550086. The geographic coordinates of the approximate center of the site are 42° 09' 17" north latitude and 72° 29' 59" west longitude. The site is bordered by Moxon Street and residential properties to the east; Pinevale Street and residential properties to the west; an industrial property owned by the City of Springfield to the north; and Goodwin Street and a recently developed solar panel power station to the south.



The original Chapman Valve Manufacturing Company (Chapman Valve) property consisted of 54 acres. However, the current site encompasses approximately 16 acres of the original property. Furthermore, the original 12 factory buildings have been demolished, with only the buildings’ slab foundations remaining on the site. The majority of these buildings were destroyed prior to 1996.

The 16-acre site is currently owned by Goodwin Realty, LLC. In addition, the Springfield Redevelopment Authority owns 14 of the surrounding acres that were also part of the original property.

According to site file information, in 1874 Chapman Valve moved from Boston to the 54-acre location in Springfield, MA. Chapman Valve was one of the world’s largest manufacturers of valves, especially for fire hydrants.

In 1948, Chapman Valve was contracted by Brookhaven Laboratory to manufacture uranium metal. The work was associated with government defense-related projects conducted under the Manhattan Engineer District (MED) and Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). Upon termination of the contract, the site was decontaminated in accordance with the standards and survey methods in use at that time.

In 1959, Crane Company (Crane Co.) purchased Chapman Valve. Crane Co. continued valve manufacturing operations on site. All on-site operations ceased in the 1980s, and the 54 acres were sold to various parties.

In August 1991, at the request of the United States Department of Energy (US DOE), the Measurement Applications and Development Group of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) conducted a radiological survey within and around Building 23 on the site. The survey was conducted under the US DOE Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP). Building 23 housed all of the uranium used during the 1948 contract between Chapman Valve and Brookhaven Laboratory. The survey included a gamma scan, beta-gamma scan, and measurement of alpha activity; measurement of direct and removable alpha and beta-gamma levels; and the collection of soil, dust, debris, and wipe samples for radionuclide analyses. Results of the radionuclide analyses indicated that residual uranium-238 was present at the site. In January 2004, US DOE issued a Certification of the Radiological Condition of Chapman Valve. The certification provided assurance that reasonably foreseeable future use of the site would result in no radiological exposure above current US DOE radiological criteria and standards for protecting members of the general public and occupants of the property. According to the ORNL report, all possible radiation sources were removed from the site; however, previous employees had been on site during periods of potential radiation exposure. Over 400 employee claims were submitted to the US Department of Labor for radiation exposure from Chapman Valve. Since not all the claims were approved for compensation, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) submitted an evaluation report in November 2005, based on the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000. A dose reconstruction was performed for employees on site during various periods of operation. No additional information available to START in background files indicated that a radiation source remained on the site.

In October 2003, ATC Associates of West Springfield (ATC), on behalf of Crane Co., prepared a Post Audit Completion Statement and Addendum Risk Characterization Report. The documentation



demonstrated that a level of No Significant Risk had been achieved on the site, and that a Class A-2 Response Action Outcome (RAO) Statement was appropriate. In October 2005, after having received this report, Goodwin Realty, LLC purchased approximately 16 acres of the Crane Co. property.

In 2006, O’Reilly, Talbot and Okun Associates (OTO) conducted environmental sampling at the Goodwin Realty, LLC property (i.e., the site) and on another parcel of land previously owned by Crane Co. OTO conducted this sampling on behalf of the Westmass Area Development Corporation. As a result of these sampling activities, OTO discovered soil contamination. Elevated levels of lead, arsenic, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in soil samples collected below the floor slabs of the former Buildings 5, 10, and 16. Goodwin Realty, LLC addressed the contaminated soil on their property (i.e., the site). In February 2009, WjF GeoConsultants of Wilbraham, MA, on behalf of Goodwin Realty, LLC, published a Release Abatement Measure (RAM) Completion Report. This report summarized the results of the soil boring program implemented on site, the excavation of impacted soils in June 2007 and March 2008, and the transportation and disposal of approximately 161 tons of contaminated soil.

In 2010, the City of Springfield (Springfield Redevelopment Authority) contracted OTO to conduct an asbestos assessment on the site. Based on their assessment, OTO estimated that there was approximately 34,000 cubic yards of asbestos debris on the property. Subsequently, in September 2010, Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) sent a notification letter to Goodwin Realty, LLC regarding MassDEP’s intent to assess a Unilateral Administrative Order (UAO) against Goodwin Realty, LLC. The UAO addressed the presence of over 30,000 cubic yards of asbestos debris on site, as estimated by OTO; and observations by MassDEP staff that Goodwin Realty, LLC was conducting RAM activities on site without approval. Goodwin Realty, LLC was ordered to cease all operations on site and was granted 30 days to provide proper documentation of a RAM Plan. Goodwin Realty, LLC ceased operations; however, MassDEP did not subsequently receive a complete RAM Plan.

Description of Substances Possibly Present, Known or Alleged: An asbestos assessment conducted by OTO indicated the presence of asbestos on site. Other site contaminants encountered during previous site assessments have reportedly been removed or addressed.

Description of Sampling Conducted

From 1 to 3 August 2011, START personnel conducted soil sampling activities on site as part of the EPA Removal Program Preliminary Assessment/Site Investigation (PA/SI). A total of 85 composite surface soil samples (including five field duplicates) (SS-01 through SS-80 and SS100 through SS-104) were collected from 0 to 3 inches below ground surface (bgs). START collected an additional 15 bulk asbestos-containing material (ACM) samples (ACM-74A-E, ACM-75A-C, ACM-76A-B, ACM-77-78, ACM-79A-B, and ACM-80) from debris piles throughout the site. Surface soil samples were submitted to a Delivery of Analytical Services (DAS) laboratory, Batta Environmental Laboratory (Batta) in Newark, Delaware, for asbestos analysis via polarized light microscopy (PLM) with California Air Resources Board (CARB) 435 sample preparation (milling) Level A for 0.25% target analytical sensitivity. In addition, 10% of

3



PLM samples were submitted for asbestos analysis via transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with CARB 435 sample preparation (milling) Level B for 0.1% target analytical sensitivity. All bulk ACM samples were submitted to the EPA Office of Environmental Measurement and Evaluation (OEME) New England Regional Laboratory (NERL) located in North Chelmsford, MA for bulk asbestos analysis by PLM with dispersion staining.

On 8 and 9 November 2011, START personnel collected personal, perimeter, and reference air samples as part of activity-based sampling (ABS) events conducted at three on-site locations. Three walking scenarios were conducted during personal and perimeter air sampling to reflect the current land use by trespassers. Air samples were submitted to Batta for analysis via International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 10312, Ambient Air – Determination of Asbestos Fibers: Direct Transfer Transmission Electron Microscopy Method. One grab surface soil sample (0 to 1 inch bgs) was collected from each ABS location and submitted to EPA OEME NERL for percent solids analysis.

On 4 April 2012, START personnel collected 18 bulk ACM samples (ACM-01 through ACM18) (including one field duplicate) at locations throughout the site. ACM had been detected on site previously by other contractors. Samples ACM-01 through ACM-18 were collected from debris piles and debris areas in the same general locations as the previous samples collected by other contractors. START mapped these locations as possible ACM debris areas. Samples were submitted to OEME NERL for bulk asbestos analysis by PLM with dispersion staining.

Site Description

The Former Chapman Valve/Crane Company (the site) is located adjacent to (south of) 121 Pinevale Street, Springfield, Hampden County, Massachusetts (MA) (see Appendix A, Figure 1) [1]. The site does not have a specific street number address, but is referred to as a commercial property along Pinevale Street on the City of Springfield Property Record Card, Map Identification Number 097550086 [2]. The geographic coordinates of the approximate center of the site are 42° 09' 17" north latitude and 72° 29' 59" west longitude. The site is bordered by Moxon Street and residential properties to the east; Pinevale Street and residential properties to the west; an industrial property owned by the City of Springfield to the north; and Goodwin Street and a recently developed solar panel power station to the south (see Appendix A, Figure 2) [3].

The original Chapman Valve Manufacturing Company (Chapman Valve) property consisted of 54 acres. However, the current site encompasses approximately 16 acres of the original property. Furthermore, the original 12 factory buildings have been demolished, with only the buildings’ slab foundations remaining on the site. The majority of these buildings were destroyed prior to 1996.

The 16-acre site is currently owned by Goodwin Realty, LLC. In addition, the Springfield Redevelopment Authority owns 14 of the surrounding acres that were also part of the original property [4].

Site Background

In 1874, Chapman Valve moved from Boston to the 54-acre location in Springfield, MA. Chapman Valve was one of the world’s largest manufacturers of valves, especially for fire hydrants [4].

In 1948, Chapman Valve was contracted by Brookhaven Laboratory to manufacture uranium metal. The work was associated with government defense-related projects conducted under the Manhattan Engineer District (MED) and Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). Upon termination of the contract, the site was decontaminated in accordance with the standards and survey methods in use at that time [5].

In 1959, Crane Company (Crane Co.) purchased Chapman Valve. Crane Co. continued valve manufacturing operations on site. All on-site operations ceased in the 1980s, and the 54 acres were sold to various parties.

In August 1991, at the request of the United States Department of Energy (US DOE), the Measurement Applications and Development Group of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) conducted a radiological survey within and around Building 23 on the site. The survey was conducted under the US DOE Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP). Building 23 housed all of the uranium used during the 1948 contract between Chapman Valve and Brookhaven Laboratory. The survey included a gamma scan, beta-gamma scan, and

1 R:\11030008\Reports\0712 PASI Final.doc

measurement of alpha activity; measurement of direct and removable alpha and beta-gamma levels; and the collection of soil, dust, debris, and wipe samples for radionuclide analyses. Results of the radionuclide analyses indicated that residual uranium-238 was present at the site. In January 2004, US DOE issued a Certification of the Radiological Condition of Chapman Valve. The certification provided assurance that reasonably foreseeable future use of the site would result in no radiological exposure above current US DOE radiological criteria and standards for protecting members of the general public and occupants of the property [6]. According to the ORNL report, all possible radiation sources were removed from the site; however, previous employees had been on site during periods of potential radiation exposure. Over 400 employee claims were submitted to the US Department of Labor for radiation exposure from Chapman Valve. Since not all the claims were approved for compensation, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) submitted an evaluation report in November 2005, based on the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000. A dose reconstruction was performed for employees on site during various periods of operation. No additional information available to START in background files indicated that a radiation source remained on the site [7].

In October 2003, ATC Associates of West Springfield (ATC), on behalf of Crane Co., prepared a Post Audit Completion Statement and Addendum Risk Characterization Report. The documentation demonstrated that a level of No Significant Risk had been achieved on the site, and that a Class A-2 Response Action Outcome (RAO) Statement was appropriate. In October 2005, after having received this report, Goodwin Realty, LLC purchased approximately 16 acres of the Crane Co. property.

In 2006, O’Reilly, Talbot and Okun Associates (OTO) conducted environmental sampling at the Goodwin Realty, LLC property (i.e., the site) and on another parcel of land previously owned by Crane Co. OTO conducted this sampling on behalf of the Westmass Area Development Corporation. As a result of these sampling activities, OTO discovered soil contamination. Elevated levels of lead, arsenic, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in soil samples collected below the floor slabs of the former Buildings 5, 10, and 16. Goodwin Realty, LLC addressed the contaminated soil on their property (i.e., the site). In February 2009, WjF GeoConsultants of Wilbraham, MA, on behalf of Goodwin Realty, LLC, published a Release Abatement Measure (RAM) Completion Report. This report summarized the results of the soil boring program implemented on site, the excavation of impacted soils in June 2007 and March 2008, and the transportation and disposal of approximately 161 tons of contaminated soil [8].

In 2010, the City of Springfield (Springfield Redevelopment Authority) contracted OTO to conduct an asbestos assessment on the site. Based on their assessment, OTO estimated that there was approximately 34,000 cubic yards of asbestos debris on the property. Subsequently, in September 2010, Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) sent a notification letter to Goodwin Realty, LLC regarding MassDEP’s intent to assess a Unilateral Administrative Order (UAO) against Goodwin Realty, LLC. The UAO addressed the presence of over 30,000 cubic yards of asbestos debris on site, as estimated by OTO; and observations by MassDEP staff that Goodwin Realty, LLC was conducting RAM activities on site without approval. Goodwin Realty, LLC was ordered to cease all operations on site and was granted 30


days to provide proper documentation of a RAM Plan. Goodwin Realty, LLC ceased operations; however, MassDEP did not subsequently receive a complete RAM Plan [9].

Overview of Site Activities

On 6 April 2011, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) On-Scene Coordinator (OSC) John McKeown, Weston Solutions, Inc. Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team III (START) Site Leader (SL) Lauren Bolte, MassDEP representative Ben Fish, and the property owners, the Bergdolls, conducted a reconnaissance (recon) of the site to determine a Preliminary Assessment/Site Investigation (PA/SI) sampling strategy for ascertaining the extent of asbestos contamination at the site. All on-site personnel reviewed and signed the site-specific health and safety plan (HASP). The HASP was prepared as a separate document, entitled Weston Solutions, Inc., Region I START Site Health and Safety Plan for the Former Chapman Valve/Crane Company Site, Springfield, Massachusetts, dated April 2011 [12]. START personnel established a support zone and calibrated the air monitoring instruments, including a MultiRAE Plus meter [with lower explosive limit (LEL), oxygen (O2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), carbon monoxide (CO), and volatile organic compound (VOC) sensors] and a Ludlum Model 19A radiation (MicroR) meter [10; 11]. Background levels were recorded in the HASP as follows: LEL = 0%; O2 = 20.9%; H2S = 0.0 parts per million (ppm); CO = 0.0 ppm; and MicroR = 5-10 microRoentgens per hour (µR/hr).

During the recon, it was noted that there was evidence of trespassing as indicated by breaches in the perimeter fence and by disposal of household waste. No drums or tanks were observed on site. START observed some open trenches, which were presumed to be remnants of the old tunnel system that was blocked off but not completely sealed to ground level. START observed several monitoring wells that had been installed by various companies. Portions of the site were overgrown with vegetation, while other portions were covered with concrete slabs from the old building foundations. In the center of the site, there were large piles of crushed building debris. Based on the recon, EPA determined that the site would be delineated with a grid for asbestos soil sampling.

On 1 through 3 August 2011, EPA OSC McKeown and START SL Bolte, START Professional Geologist (P.G.) John Kelly, and START members Carolyn Imbres, Gerry Hornok, and Dean Brammer returned to site to establish a sampling grid and to conduct surface soil sampling for asbestos analysis (see Appendix B, Table 1). Prior to site activities, all personnel reviewed and signed the HASP. Sampling procedures were conducted in accordance with the site-specific Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP), which was prepared by START as a separate document, entitled Sampling and Analysis Plan for the Former Chapman Valve/Crane Company Site, Springfield, Hampden County, Massachusetts, dated July 2011 [13]. In addition, bulk asbestos-containing material (ACM) samples were collected at this time as well (see Appendix B, Table 2). A detailed description of all on-site sampling activities is provided in the section below.

START photodocumented site conditions during reconnaissance and sampling activities (see Appendix C, Photodocumentation Log).

Based on the analytical results of the August 2011 surface soil samples, EPA determined that on-site activity-based sampling (ABS) was needed to evaluate the potential risk of airborne asbestos


exposure. On 8 November 2011, EPA and START conducted Phase II of the PA/SI, which included conducting air sampling for asbestos analysis during three ABS walking scenarios [14].

On 9 November 2011, EPA and START concluded on-site activities for Phase II of the PA/SI. All locations of the air sampling pumps were recorded with a global positioning system (GPS) unit [15]. The locations of building debris piles were recorded with a GPS unit and measured to obtain an approximate volume of potential ACM debris on site.

On 4 April 2012, EPA and START returned to site. The objective of the site visit was to further quantify the site’s ACM debris. START conducted additional ACM sampling and recorded sample locations with a GPS unit to distinguish the areas and piles containing ACM debris from areas and piles of non-contaminated building debris.

Sampling Activities

Soil and ACM Sampling – August 2011

In August 2011, START collected 85 surface soil samples (including five field duplicate samples) and 15 bulk ACM samples throughout the site. Waypoint locations of sampling grids were uploaded onto a GPS unit. While on site, personnel navigated to a waypoint and measured the necessary grid size from the point. A soil sample was collected from within each grid. The dimensions of sampling grids varied, and included 31 100-foot by 100-foot grids, 13 100-foot by 50-foot grids, and 26 50-foot by 50-foot grids. The sampling grids extended to the fence lines of the property and encompassed the entire 16-acre site, with the exception of an area with debris piles (see Appendix A, Figure 3). All surface soil samples were screened with a MultiRAE Plus and a MicroR meter to determine if there were levels of VOCs or radiation greater than background in the soil. All surface soil samples were five-point composite samples collected from 0 to 3 inches below ground surface (bgs) using dedicated sampling equipment. Following sample collection, samples were homogenized and classified by START P.G. Kelly in accordance with the Burmeister method and the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Information regarding vegetation, soil characterization, and screening results of the soil for each sample location was recorded by START personnel on field data sheets. The USCS symbol for each soil sample is included with a summary of the analytical results (see Appendix B, Table 1).

The bulk ACM samples and 11 collocated soil samples were collected from the debris piles located in the center of the site. Fifteen ACM samples were collected at the surface of these debris piles (see Appendix A, Figure 4 and Appendix B, Table 2). Additional debris pieces were characterized by START personnel but were not sent to the laboratory for asbestos analysis. These additional samples were noted to be similar to the ACM samples that were sent for laboratory analysis. The surface soil samples were submitted to the Batta Environmental Laboratory (Batta) in Newark, Delaware for Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) analysis via EPA 600/R-93/116 Method with California Air Resources Board (CARB) 435 sample preparation (milling) Level A for 0.25% target analytical sensitivity. In addition, 10% of the soil samples were submitted for Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis via Modified EPA 600/R-93/116 Method with CARB 435 sample preparation (milling) Level B for 0.1% target analytical sensitivity. The bulk ACM samples were submitted to EPA Office of Environmental Measurement and Evaluation (OEME) New England Regional Laboratory


(NERL), located in North Chelmsford, MA, for bulk asbestos analysis by PLM with dispersion staining (see Appendix D, Chain-of-Custody Records).

ABS Sampling – November 2011

Based upon the analytical results of the August 2011 soil sampling, EPA made the determination to conduct ABS sampling.

On 8 November 2011, OSC McKeown, START SL Bolte, and START members John Burton, Bill Mahany, and Imbres mobilized to the site to conduct ABS. The current land-use activity of trespassing was considered in selecting soil disturbance scenarios for ABS, consistent with the recommendations of the EPA Framework For Investigating Asbestos-Contaminated Superfund Sites [16]. Sampling was conducted in accordance with Revision 1 of the START SAP, dated October 2011 [13].

Three personal sampling areas were selected for ABS. The first ABS location was Grid 29 (the area where soil sample SS-29 was collected), an approximate 50-foot by 50-foot area covered mostly by an old foundation slab, located in the southern portion of the site. The second ABS location was a 50-foot by 50-foot area measured from the center point of Grid 8 (the area soil sample SS-08 was collected), which was previously a 100-foot by 100-foot grid. These two locations were walked through for 100 consecutive minutes. The third ABS location was around Debris Piles 75, 76, and 79. For this location, personnel walked around and through the piles to cause disturbance to material with known asbestos contamination (see Appendix A, Figure 5). These three ABS locations were chosen based on soil types, terrain, and laboratory results from the soil sampling previously conducted.

Each ABS event consisted of one person (the sampler) conducting an activity for approximately 100 minutes throughout the personal sampling area, while wearing a backpack containing one high-volume and one low-volume air sampling pump, with 0.8-micron (µm) mixed cellulose ester (MCE) cassettes situated in the breathing zone of the sampler. At the discretion of OSC McKeown, high-volume air sampling pumps were established at two or three perimeter locations, within 10 feet of each personal sampling area, to assess nearby dust migration during the activity. All air sampling pumps were calibrated prior to and following sample collection. The flow rate of high-volume air sampling pumps was set at approximately 10 liters per minute (L/min), and the flow rate of low-volume air sampling pumps was set at approximately 3 L/min, to obtain air sample volumes of approximately 1,000 and 300 L, respectively. Little to no wind was detected prior to initiating ABS (see Appendix E, Weather Data). Three reference air sampling pumps were established at locations in the northern and eastern portions of the site. All perimeter and reference samples were collected using 0.8-µm MCE cassettes situated at breathing zone height, approximately 4 to 5 feet above the ground surface.

Using dedicated sampling equipment, START collected one grab surface soil sample (0 to 1 inch bgs) for percent solids analysis from each ABS location. These three surface soil samples were submitted to EPA OEME NERL for percent solids analysis.

At the conclusion of all sampling, START walked through the site to determine the estimated volume of building debris on site that contained or was suspected to contain ACM. The piles


were measured and described to obtain the approximate extent of bulk material contamination on site (see Appendix A, Figure 4 and Appendix B, Table 3).

ACM Sampling – April 2012

On 4 April 2012, OSC McKeown and START SL Bolte mobilized to site to conduct ACM sampling throughout the site. A total of 18 bulk ACM samples (including one duplicate sample) were collected and submitted to EPA OEME NERL for asbestos analysis by PLM with dispersion staining. ACM had been detected on site previously by other contractors. In 2009, OTO collected bulk ACM samples in similar areas on site that had results ranging from non-detect to 40% chrysotile asbestos [17]. Samples ACM-01 through ACM-18 were collected from debris piles and debris areas in the same general locations as these previous samples collected by OTO (see Appendix A, Figure 4; Appendix B, Table 2; and Appendix F). START mapped these locations as possible ACM debris areas. Sampling was conducted in accordance with Revision 2 of the START SAP, dated March 2012 [13].

Analytical Data Summaries

August 2011 Soil and ACM Sampling Results

Results of the on-site soil classification revealed the following USCS soil types: OH (organic, high plasticity); ML (silt, low plasticity); SC (sand and clay); and SM (sand and silt) (see Appendix B, Table 1).

In September 2011, START received the soil sample analytical results from Batta [18]. The complete analytical data packages are provided in the Site File. The analytical PLM results revealed chrysotile asbestos in one soil sample, SS-29, at 0.75% by volume; and in two soil samples, SS-08 and SS-18, at trace concentrations of <0.25% by volume. The TEM result of these samples revealed 1.66% chrysotile asbestos by weight in soil sample SS-29, and non-detect levels in soil samples SS-08 and SS-18. Two soil samples, SS-38 and SS-104, were non-detect for asbestos by PLM analysis; however, trace levels were detected (<0.01% of chrysotile by weight) by TEM analysis. A summary of PLM and TEM asbestos results for soil samples is included in Appendix B, Table 1.

START conducted Tier I data validation of the soil sample analytical data packages [19].

START received the bulk asbestos analytical results from OEME NERL [20]. The complete analytical data packages are provided in the Site File. Analysis via PLM with dispersion staining indicated the presences of chrysotile asbestos in two bulk ACM samples. Analysis of bulk ACM sample ACM-74C, located in Pile 5 and near soil sample SS-74, indicated 20% chrysotile asbestos by volume. During analysis, laboratory personnel characterized this sample of ACM as a gray, cement-like material, and pimpled on one side. Analysis of bulk ACM sample ACM75A, located in Pile 4 and near soil sample SS-75, indicated 15% chrysotile asbestos by volume. Laboratory personnel characterized this sample of ACM as a thin, gray, hard board. A summary of PLM results for bulk ACM samples is included in Appendix B, Table 2.


November 2011 Activity-Based Sampling Results

Based on the results of the August 2011 soil samples, EPA determined that activity-based air sampling was needed to evaluate the potential risk of airborne asbestos exposure on the site.

In January 2012, START received the air sample analytical results from Batta [21]. A summary of TEM results for air samples is included in Appendix B, Table 4. There were no asbestos fibers detected in the air samples. Based on the EPA Framework for Investigating Asbestos-Contaminated Superfund Sites, the laboratory-achieved sensitivity level was met, and an airborne risk was evaluated [16].

START conducted Tier II data validation of the analytical data package for air samples collected as part of ABS [22].

Analysis of the three surface soil samples submitted for percent solids analysis revealed 80% solids in the Grid 8 sample, 84% solids in the Grid 29 sample, and 90% solids in the Debris Pile 75 sample [23].

April 2012 Bulk ACM Sampling Results

On 13 April 2012, START received the bulk ACM sample results from EPA OEME NERL [24]. The results and a description of each bulk sample are included in Appendix B, Table 2. There were no asbestos fibers detected in these bulk ACM samples.
