PEER Consultants performed an assessment of regulated building materials at the Calverton Elementary/Middle School, including Asbestos, Lead-Based Paint, and Other Hazardous Materials based on previous inconclusive investigations. The owner was interested in a National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) report given that the current building on the ground would be demolished in preparation for a new school building.
A NESHAP Asbestos report was prepared, the report contained all the proportioned asbestos information (e.g. Asbestos-Containing Materials Plan, dated May 9, 1989) and other results from sampling in comprehensive tables. This report contained a summary of the sampled areas, a review of previous inspections and abatements, a discussion of analytical laboratory results, and recommendations for abatement prior to demolition. PEER also performed a site investigation for Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA). The Phase I ESA was conducted in accordance with ASTM Standard E-1527 “Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process.” The report contained observations in reference to the apparent environmental condition of the site and recommendations and input on the further additional environmental investigation if deemed necessary.
