December 9, 2014 Project No. 14-139-06A VIA EMAIL: ([email protected]) Mr. Kevin Schlyter Manager, Planning and Construction

Lakehead University, Physical Plant 955 Oliver Road Thunder Bay, ON P7B 5E1 Dear Mr. Schlyter: Re: Limited Pre-Renovation Designated Substance Survey (DSS)

Room 0020, Saunders Field House, Lakehead University 955 Oliver Road, Thunder Bay, ON

True Grit Consulting Limited (TGCL) is pleased to provide to Lakehead University (LU) the results of a pre-renovation Designated Substance Survey (DSS) for Room 0020 in the Saunders Field House at LU which is located at 955 Oliver Road, in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The DSS was requested by Mr. Kevin Schlyter of LU in preparation for renovations planned for Room 0020. TGCL understands that the planned renovations will involve disturbance of the walls of Room 0020. The purpose of the DSS was to identify asbestos or lead-containing materials not previously noted in the building hazardous materials information system for Room 0020 so that potential contractors can be advised in accordance with the requirements of Section 30 of the Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act (Part III).

Methodology and Results

Mr. Mike Broere, HBSc., MSc., TGCL Air Quality Scientist, completed a site inspection at the subject building on December 3, 2014. Methods used during the DSS are attached to this letter report.

TGCL provides the following information on designated substances and hazardous materials for the subject building (attached):

• Figure 1 – Room 0020 - Sample Locations and General Location of Identified asbestos-containing materials (ACM); and

• Certificates of Laboratory Analysis (for asbestos and lead samples collected as part of the DSS).

This information should be provided to contractors at the bidding stage for the renovations to meet the requirements under the Occupational Health and Safety Act and Ontario Regulation 278/05 (O. Reg. 278/05).

Conclusions and Recommendations

DSS Conclusions and Recommendations Room 0020, Saunders Field House, Lakehead University

955 Oliver Road, Thunder Bay, ON Substance Results Recommendations/Disposal Requirement

Asbestos Asbestos was identified in the following non-friable material in Room 0020: Parging over

concrete block walls

Since ACM were identified in the subject building O. Reg. 278/05 applies.

All work involving ACM must follow procedures outlined in O. Reg. 278/05. Disturbance of ACM parging on the walls of Room 0020 will be, at minimum, a Type 2 asbestos operation as described in O. Reg. 278/05. Power tools equipped with dust collectors with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters should be used for any disturbance of the walls. Following is a summary of procedures required for a Type 2 asbestos operation (NOTE: Refer to O. Reg. 278/05 for a full description of all required procedures):

Erect signs warning of asbestos dust hazard.

Provide facilities for workers to wash face and hands.

Wet down with amended water (if safe to do so).

Use plastic drop sheets to control the spread of dust.

Dispose of waste, drop sheets and protective clothing as asbestos waste.

Respirator required, if the material is wet down, is a half mask, cartridge style with a P-100 filter.

Respirator required, if the material is not wet down, is a full face, cartridge style with a P-100 filter.

Protective clothing is required including head covering.

Training in asbestos and respirator awareness that meets the requirements of O. Reg. 278/05 is required for all workers.

If HEPA filtered power tools are not used then the work will be a Type 3 asbestos operation. Requirements under O. Reg. 278/05 for a Type 3 asbestos operation include, but are not limited to, the following:

Full enclosure of the work area under negative pressure.

Decontamination facility including showers.

Respirators (minimum full face piece) and protective clothing.

DSS Conclusions and Recommendations Room 0020, Saunders Field House, Lakehead University

955 Oliver Road, Thunder Bay, ON Substance Results Recommendations/Disposal Requirement

TGCL understands that previous renovations to adjacent rooms involved the demolition of concrete block walls. LU reports that potential ACM vermiculite insulation was not observed inside the concrete block. Vermiculite is not expected to be present in the concrete block walls in Room 0020.

Clearance air sampling.

Training as specified in O. Reg. 278/05 for all workers.

Transportation of ACM (e.g. for disposal) can only be done by an Ontario Ministry of Environment (MOE)-licensed carrier. ACM can be disposed of in a licensed landfill willing to accept it.

If potential ACM are observed during renovation activities work should cease and samples of the suspect material should be sampled and submitted for asbestos analysis before any work proceeds.

Lead

Lead was detected in the cream-coloured paint on the walls of Room 0020.

Contractors and staff engaged in the renovations which will disturb identified lead-containing materials should follow the Ontario Ministry of Labour (MOL) document, Guideline – Lead on Construction Projects. A HEPA filtered power tool should be used for any disturbance of the lead-containing paint in Room 0020. If a HEPA filtered power tool is used then the work will be classified as a Type 1 lead operation according to the MOL Guideline. Work procedures for a Type 1 lead operation include, but are not limited to, the following:

Use plastic drop sheets to control the spread of dust.

Provide facilities for workers to wash face and hands.

Respirators are not required.

Protective clothing is not required.

Signage is not required. Any manual demolition of the parging, not completed with a HEPA filtered power tool, will be classified as a Type 2a lead operation requiring the following precautions at minimum:

Half mask style respirator with a P-100 filter.

Training and personal fit testing for respirator use.

Protective clothing.

Signage warning of a lead hazard.

Drop sheets.

Facilities for workers to wash face and hands. Additionally, if any of the lead-containing materials are to be disposed of, samples must be collected and submitted for a Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure (TCLP) test for lead in accordance with the requirements of Ontario Regulation 347 (O. Reg. 347) made under the Environmental Protection Act to ensure that the materials can be disposed of as solid non-hazardous waste. If materials are determined to be hazardous, registration of the site as a generator of leachate toxic waste is also required.

TRUE GRIT CONSULTING LTD. METHODS FOR PRE-RENOVATION/CONSTRUCTION DESIGNATED SUBSTANCE SURVEY

Methods for Pre-Renovation Designated Substance Survey (DSS)

Visual Assessment

A site inspection was completed by Mr. Mike Broere, TGCL Jr. Air Quality Scientist on December 3, 2014. It involved a methodical visual assessment of the subject area for building materials that could contain asbestos or lead.

Asbestos

Building materials not identified in existing reports and suspected of containing asbestos were collected and sampled in accordance with Ontario Regulation (O.Reg.) 278/05 Designated Substance – Asbestos on Construction Projects and in Buildings and Repair Operations. Samples were analyzed via Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) following the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Test Method EPA/600/R-93/116: Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials, June 1993. Where samples consisted of more than one distinct layer (i.e. vinyl floor tile, paper-type backing, mastic, etc), each layer was analyzed and reported separately.

Materials found to contain 0.5% or more asbestos were identified as ACM (as per Ontario Regulation 278/05). All work involving ACM must follow procedures specified in Ontario Regulation 278/05 (O. Reg. 278/05). Transportation of ACM (e.g. for disposal) can only be done by a Ministry of Environment (MOE) licensed carrier. ACM can be disposed of in a licensed landfill willing to accept it.

Lead

Lead can be expected to be found in older paints, in pipe joint solder or as domestic water service piping. Materials not already identified in existing reports as lead-containing were collected and submitted for laboratory analysis of lead content by a qualified laboratory according to a standard method (acid digestion, inductively coupled plasma (ICP) elemental analysis).

The Canadian Hazardous Products Act (CHPA) is responsible for defining surface coatings (including paint) as lead-containing. The CHPA definition of a lead-containing surface coating is one that contains more than 0.009% lead (weight %).

Determination of lead content of painted materials is included in the DSS in order to specify work procedures and disposal considerations. Work involving building materials identified as lead-containing must follow procedures outlined in the Ontario Ministry of Labour (MOL) document, Guideline – Lead on Construction Projects, dated 2004 (MOL Guideline).

Lead-containing non-metallic materials must not be disposed of until a sample of the material is subjected to a toxicity characteristic leachate procedure (TCLP) to determine if it is leachate toxic according to Schedule 4 of Ontario Regulation 347 (O. Reg. 347). Non-metallic materials that were found to contain greater than 0.009% lead were submitted for TCLP analysis. Note that metallic materials found to be lead-containing are not normally submitted for TCLP analysis since it is standard practice to recycle metals as opposed to disposing of them and there are no restrictions on recycling metals with lead coatings.

Lead waste must be transported for disposal by an MOE licensed carrier. Non-leachate toxic lead waste can be disposed of in a licensed landfill willing to accept it. Leachate toxic lead waste must be transported to, and disposed of or destroyed at, a licensed disposal or destruction facility.
