Phase Contrast Microscopy (PCM) samples: High volume samples should be conducted using the NIOSH 7400 method. Sampling results are to be compared with the EPA recommended clearance level of 0.01 fibers/cc. Sampling equipment - high volume pump (2 to 121iters per minute) Minimum sample volume 3000 liters of air (per each sample) Sampling medium 0.8um pore size mixed cellulose ester membrane filter 25mm open face filter in a three piece filter holder with a 50mm electrically conductive extension cowl Two field blanks (per each day of sampling) Analytical method phase contrast microscopy (PCM) fiber count (NIOSH 7400 & 29CFR 1926.58 mandatory Appendix A "OSHA Reference Method" - especially quality control aspects) II. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) samples: High volume samples should be conducted using the U.S. EPA AHERA method. Sampling results are to be compared with the EPA recommended clearance level of 70 structures/mm^.

Sampling locations: 1. Floor 31 at base of ladder to the roof 2. Sub-basement steam room 3. Typical floor - either unoccupied office, conference room or hallway (either 6 or 19 where occupants will understand the nature and purpose of the testing) 4. Floor 14 conference room (subject to vibration from the 15th floor mailroom). This is a tenant occupied floor occupied by the law firm LeBoeuf, Lamb, Leiby & MacRae. 5. Sampling concurrent with removal job a. outside the enclosure during the ACM removal job, and b. clearance sample on the floor where removal operations were conducted after dismantling of the enclosure at the end of the job.

Quotes will include analysis at a certified outside lab or the alternative of analysis performed by Alcoa EHL. ACM Compliance, Inc. (may not employ any CIHs) Baker/TSA, Inc. ICF Kaiser Engineers, Inc. IT Corporation NUS Corporation S.E. Technologies Cost estimate: The attached quotes received from the vendors contacted indicate that the cost of the modified asbestos survey (with TEM samples) ranges from $1910 to $2075. An additional quote which dosn't include the analysis of the PCM samples ranges from $1310 to $1775. If we decide to go this way, we can have the PCM samples analyzed at ATC Environmental Health Lab (EHL) at $20/sample (as compared with the $30 - $40 charged by outside labs). EHL maintains all of the certifications and QC programs that are required for this work.

Per our previous telephone discussion, the air volumes have been Increased 1500 - 3000 liters to comply with the Allegheny County Health Department, Bureau of Air Pollution Control final air clearance standard as well as NI0SH 7400 method for air monitoring, see attached method. The Initial air monitoring program will Include sampling at the following locations: 31st floor at base of roof ladder, sub-basement steam room, 6th or 19th floor, the (ijkhjfloor conference room, as well as outside the enclosure during an abatement activity. C60763 0221 ALCOA Building April 25, 1994 Page 2 The subsequent air monitoring program will Include a sample In the abatement area after completion, (total removal of the enclosure) of an abatement activity. If an additional day Is necessary to draw the during-abatement procedure sample, pricing for that sampling day is included separately. Four samples will be drawn at each location, three wifi be analyzed by PCM, Phase Contrast Microscopy, while the fourth sample, will be analyzed by using the TEM method, Transmission Electron Microscopy. It is understood that the PCM samples may, at ALCOA'S discretion, be analyzed at the ALCOA Environmental Health Laboratory. Additionally, a field blank will be submitted for analysis each day.

Tins price includes labor, other direct costs, and laboratory analytical services to collect 3 air samples at each of six locations (18 samples [IS air samples on one day and 3 air samples on the second day]) and to analyze these air samples plus 3 media blanks for asbestos by phase contrast microscopy (PCM), plus collect one air sample at each of the six locations (6 air samples in addition to the 18 air samples described above) and to analyze these air samples plus 3 media blanks for asbestos by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Air sampling methodology (Le., media, flow rate, and 1500 liter sample volume) and sample analysis will conform to the methods specified by the U.S. EPA in the Asbestos Hazards Emergency Response Act (AHERA). However, the sampling protocol (i.e., number of samples and non-aggressive sampling) will be ALCOA's. Quote 2: $1775. This price includes the services described in Quote 1 except the PCM analyses; Baker will process the samples to ALCOA'S analytical laboratory for asbestos analysis by PCM Baker will tabulate the results received from the laboratory, will compare the results to the EPA's clearance criteria for asbestos of0.01 free for PCM analysis and 70 s/mm2 for TEM analysis, and will submit the table of results with a cover letter and the sample collection sheets including the chains of custody to ALCOA within one week ofreceiving the laboratory analytical reports.
