www.TTLUSA.com

TTL, Inc. (TTL) is pleased to provide this report for consulting services for the Montgomery Housing

Authority's (MHA) Parks Place (Former Cleveland Court) Housing Complex located on Rosa Parks

Avenue in Montgomery, Alabama.

Project Background

The former Cleveland Court housing complex is currently undergoing renovations through the

Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Capital Funds Program, and the upgraded complex will be called Parks Place. Parks Place will be reoccupied in three phases starting in January 2017. The

renovations involving the fifteen housing units are underway. Based on conversations with you, the

management building and the community center will be demolished and consolidated into one

structure. The MHA contracted TTL to perform an asbestos assessment of the two buildings to

identify asbestos-containing materials (ACM) and lead-based paint, and to assist the MHA in

creating a scope of work for the selected contractor to follow to properly demolish the buildings and

dispose of suspect materials.

Scope of Services

ACM

TTL subcontracted with Building Environments, Inc., which specializes in inspections of building

materials, to assist in the identification of ACM. Mr. Lee Clayton of Building Environments

conducted the asbestos survey on April 20, 2016. A report of the survey findings is attached.

Asbestos-containing materials were determined to be present in both buildings surveyed. Friable

asbestos-containing ceiling tiles were present in the Community Building. Non-friable vinyl

asbestos floor tile and mastic were present in both buildings.

Subject: Survey for Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM) Regulated During Demolition The Cleveland Courts Administration Building and the Community Center Building Building Environments, Inc. Project BE-636

To All Concerned:

Building Environments, Inc. has completed the survey for asbestos-containing material (ACM) at the subject location( s), in accordance with our meetings and telephone conversation. These services were provided under the terms of our verbal agreement and our letter dated December 21, 2015. This report has one page of findings for each building. The Bulk Sample Analysis (by Polarized Light Microscopy) Report Summary is attached as an Appendix.

We understand you plan to demolish the subject facility to make way for new construction. This demolition is considered a "commercial" project, which requires identification of ACM, and notification of any asbestos removal prior to beginning work. The sole purpose of this survey is to provide information needed to comply with the EPA National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) which requires that ACM be identified, and most materials removed ("regulated"), in advance of building renovation/demolition. No investigations were made outside the building relative to environmental concerns such as potential site contamination. BE did not address concerns of lead-based paint during demolition.

Vinyl a.fbestosfloor tile (VAT) was identified in both the subject buildings, and asbestos-containing ceiling panels were idmtified in only the Community Center. Before demolition of these structures, BE recommends the Owner file a notification of demolition with the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM), the local enforcement agency for the NESHAP. Present a copy of this report as evidence that the Buildings were checked for the presence of regulated asbestos materials, and such materials were identified. Document the removal of ACM prior to razing.

Also, prior to demolition, we recommend that the Owner have all friable ACM removed by an experienced, licensed and insured asbestos abatement contractor. However, the VAT can be left in place during the demolition process if certain requirements are met to satisfy ADEM.

Survey for Regulated Asbestos-Containing Building Materials (ACM) The Cleveland Courts Administration Building on Rosa Parks Drive in Montgomery

Building Environments, Inc. (BE) completed this survey on April 20, 2016. Mr. F. Lee Clayton, an asbestos Inspector accredited by the Alabama Safe State Program, visited the Building to check for the presence of regulated asbestos-containing building material (ACM)� field-identify ACM which can be� and collect samples of suspect ACM. Samples were then sent to be analyzed, as required, by an accredited laboratory.

Building Description The subject site is a non-residential building located in Cleveland Courts. The original building is wood and metal framed with a crawl space. This original 1941 construction has a red-brick veneer exterior. Two additions on the south side are concrete slab-on-grade buildings with cement masonry unit ( concrete block) walls and wooden-framed roof structures. Asphalt shingle roofing is in good condition. In total there are about 3�050 ft2

of floor space.

HVAC

Flooring

Non-Asbestos-Containing Materials Recently installed asphalt shingles are not considered suspect asbestos material.

Red brick veneer and concrete block are not suspect ACM.

No access to the attic space could be found.

In the offices there are new suspended ceiling panels. Samples #6A & #7 A identified the panels as non-asbestos material.

No asbestos material was observed in/on the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system. The flue is metal.

Walls are gypsum wallboard on wood or metal framing. Gypsum wallboard (" Sheetrock") is not ACM but the finishing compound can be. Samples #3A, #4A, & #5A were taken from the wallboard joint finishing compound ("mud"), and analysis detected no asbestos.

Asbestos-Containing Materials There is vinyl floor tile exposed in the building's front spaces, underneath newer tile in the hallway� as well as under carpet in the offices. This flooring is non-friable vinyl asbestos tile (VAT), and its adhesive mastic is also ACM, as determined through analysis of samples # lA & #2A. There are at least 1300 ft2 of VAT in the Administration Bldg.

Conclusion and Recommendation Before demolishing this structure, BE recommends the Owner file a notification of demolition with the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM), the local enforcement agency for the NESHAP. Present a copy of this report as evidence that the building was checked for the presence of regulated asbestos materials, and such materials were identified.

Prior to demolition, we recommend the Owner have the identified VAT removed by an experienced, licensed and insured asbestos abatement contractor, or leave the VAT in place and make special arrangements to conduct the demolition and maintain the site in a manner suitable to ADEM.

Non-Asbestos-Containing Materials The roofing mastic ("bull") around penetrations was sampled (#11 & #12). Two samples of roofing membrane (#13 & #14) were collected. Analysis of these samples did not identify asbestos.

The cement masonry unit walls are not suspected ACM. Panels under windows and the soffit were observed to be masonry troweled-onto steel mesh, and not considered suspect.

The ceilings in the building section south of the central hallway have a textured finish. This finish is applied to concrete roof panels. Samples #3, #4, & #5 were taken of the textured finish. Asbestos was not detected in the analysis of this ceiling texture. North of the Hallway there is a very fluffy textured ceiling finish (samples #6, #7, & #8). Analysis of these samples did not detect asbestos.

No real attic space, ductwork is above a suspended ceiling.

No asbestos material was observed in/on the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system.

Walls are painted concrete block and are not considered a suspect ACM.

Asbestos-Containing Materials In the central corridor ("Hallway") there are suspended ceiling panels. Samples # 1 & #2 identified the panels as asbestos-containing material. There are about 250 :ft2 of this friable material.

There is non-friable vinyl asbestos floor tile (VAT), which apparently covers the entire space except for the Kitchen and Restrooms ( about 1700 :ft2). It is covered with carpet in the offices. Samples #9 & #IO were cofiected ofthls tile. Analysis determined it, and the adhesive mastic to contain asoestos.

Conclusion and Recommendation Before demolishing this structure, BE recommends the Owner file a notification of demolition with the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM), the local enforcement agency for the NESHAP. Present a copy of this report as evidence that the building was checked for the presence of regulated asbestos materials, and such materials were identified.

Prior to demolition, we recommend the Owner have the friable ACM removed by an experienced, licensed and insured asbestos abatement contractor, or leave the VAT in place and make special arrangements to conduct the demolition and maintain the site in a manner suitable to ADEM.

3. Analysis of floor tile or any other resinously bound materials by polarized light microscopy (PLM) using EPA Method 600/R-93/116 dated July 1993 mayyield false-negat,ve results because of method limitations in separating closely bound fibers from matrix mijterial and in detecting fibers of small lengthand/or diameter. When analysis o( such materials by the EPA PLM Method yields negatliVe results for the presence of asbestos we recommend utilizingalternative methods of identification such as Gravimetry, XRD or AEM.

4. Samples are not homogenized by SELC prior to analysis. Distinct material layers within a sample are anafyzed and reportecj separately by SELC. Whenmultiple product$ are submitted by the customer under one sample number, SELC indicc;1tes those distinct products as sub-samples. SELC re;tains allsamples numbers but will designa�e a sample number to those that arE! not given a sample number by the customer.

PLM Notes and Descriptions

1. Upper detection limit: 100%. Lower detection limit: <1 %.

2. Bulk Samples will be stored for 3 months and will then be disposed of in an approved EPA landfill.

�- Analysis of floor tile or any other resinously bound niaterials by polarized light microscopy (PLM) using E;PA Method 600/R-93/116 dated July 1993 mayyield false-nega.tive results because of method limitations in separating closely bound fibers from matrix material and in detEJcting fibers of small length and/or diameter. When analysis Qf such materials by the EPA PLM Method yields negative results for the presence of asbestos we recommend utilizing alternative methods of identification such as Gravimetry, XRD or AEM.

4. Samples are r'IQt homogenized by SELC prior to an,;1lysis. Distinct material layers within a sample are analyzed and reported separately by SELC. Whenmultiple products are submitted by the customer under one sample .-ivmber, SELC indic;ates those distinct products as sub�samples. SELC retains allsamples numbers but will designate a sample number to those that are not given a sam,ple number by the customer.

5. Percentages given are based on a visual estimated calibration.

�- Safety Environmental LaboratoriEts and Consulting, Inc. is a NVLAP accredited laboratqry, Lab Code: 200873-0 (1SO/IEC Standard 17025:ioosCompliant).

7. Results relate only to the samples tested. All tests were performed under the scope of SELC's NVLAP accreditation, unless indicated otherwise.

a. All samples were received in a condition suitable far analysis ("Goocn, unless otherwise noted.

9. This report must not be used to claim product certification, approval, ,or endorsement by NVLAP, NIST, 9r any agency of the Federal Government.

DOCUMENT 00902 – ADDENDUM NUMBER TWO DATE: April 5, 2019 PROJECT: MONTGOMERY HOUSING AUTHORITY PARKS PLACE PHASE IV MANAGEMENT OFFICE DEMOLITION 1026 Rosa Parks Avenue Montgomery, Alabama 36108 FROM: Cohen Carnaggio Reynolds 2920 First Avenue South Birmingham, Alabama 35233 TO: Prospective Bidder This addendum forms a part of the Contract Documents and modifies the original Construction Documents Dated March 1, 2019, as noted below.

CLARIFICATIONS:

1. Revised Allowance No. 1 – In Spec Section 01 21 00 Allowances, Subsection 3.3-1, revise the wording for Allowance No. 1 as follows: Allowance No. 1 Asbestos Abatement, Demolition & Utility Cap/Removal Allowance: Include a ten (10) percent of base bid allowance for unforeseen asbestos abatement, building demolition, utility capping and abandoned utility removal items encountered during construction.

2. ‘Administration Building’ Terminology in the Asbestos Report – In the 2016 Asbestos Report, only refer to the ‘Administration Building’ references pertaining to this particular project. The ‘Administration Building’ described in the Asbestos Report is the same building as the ‘Management Office’ Building shown on our project’s Construction Documents as mentioned in Addendum #1, dated 04/04/19. Hence ‘Administration Building’ in the Asbestos Report is synonymous with “Management Office’ Building on the drawings. Therefore, delete any references to ‘Community Center Building’ listed in the Asbestos Report from consideration for this project. The ‘Community Center Building’ does not apply to this project.

3. Final Addendum – Addendum #2 is the Final Addendum to be issued.
