Asbestos removal

8/29 Call from Richard Nelson call about illegal run off to storm water on to city streets
from soil excavation at the site. Micheal Burkhart was the contact person. I tracked down Micheal Burkhart who is the team leader for inspectors in the area. His plumbing
inspector called in the potential infraction. The site in the City jurisdiction and Saba from
City Erosion Control visited the site. During his visit the streets were clean and he did
not see any infractions. He was later brought to the site for the MH erosion control
permit inspection the following week.
9/5 9:45 am. I visited the site unannounced. East Coast was off the site, no erosion
control fencing, the site was wide open. I meet Jim Rodarte of Morlando-Holden. He
explained they were the general contractors laying the storm water and finish work on the
site. They were connecting some broken pipes and found potentially asbestos containing materials. I arrived within the first half hour of them working. We called Mac of Ark to
come and discuss the situation.

Mac and I called Scott Cornell of East Coast Wrecking and spoke on the phone. I asked
about sediment fencing and erosion control. He stated his company rolled off the job a week ago and removed all silt fencing since it was in contact with asbestos soils. It was
his understanding the general contractor MH was to install his own fencing and erosion
controls. He agreed to send the waste manifest certificate. I asked about final
inspections whether visual or analytical. I stated that MH was to be working in the soil,
testing would have be done to show ACM was no longer present. All soil work on the site must be done by an asbestos accredited personnel.

We agreed to meet back on Friday morning at 10 am.

9/7 10 meeting at the site with ARK, MH, East Coast, City Erosion inspector Saba, and DENR BF.

9/13 Notes from discussion with Pat Wiley, Industrial Hygiene Consultant, NC DHHS -
Health Hazards Control Unit, 919-707-5971

Pat review the 8/5/07 Site Safety and Health Plan prepared by East coast Wrecking. She
made the following comments:
3.2.1 Asbestos Abatement, references state of Alabama.

3.3.2 Excavation of Equipment Oil Spils, reference Base Facility Fire Department and
Base Facility Response Plan, what are these plans and are they for the NC Music Factory.
4.3.12 Inspections: What environmental consultant has been hired to conided the air
monitoring? It must be an accredited air monitor for NC. Ask for the results during the
initial excavation work.
5.1 Respiratory Protection: None visible in site photos, nor have I see any during early
morning site visits. Review this section with Scott during meeting on 9/14.
Asbestos marking tape to caution personal that ACM in the area.
Likely to need half face masks
7.4.2 Truck Wash, has the truck wash station been rebuilt?

8.1 Air Monitoring: air monitor work for employees can be done by supervisor, but along
property boundaries for site information, must be conducted by accredited air monitor
person.
General comments:
• An asbestos designer should have written he HASP, the only person at East Coast
Wrecking with a license is Scott Cornell.
• All persons on the site working in the soil excavation process should have
accreditation. It is a picture ID similar to driver’s license.
• OSHA 29 CFR 1929.1101 is training for asbestos work. Heavy construction
equipment workers must have this certification. This would be an OSHA violation. The equipment must have an enclosed cab, otherwise it must be ACM
accreditation.
• OSHA Consultants to ask questions: o Ed Geddie 919/807-2880 o Susan Hritos 919/807-2879
• Post excavation, refered to NESHAP 40 CFR 61.151 closure of manufacturing
site. Pat stated this level of closure would take approval from EPA Region IV and
could not be done at state level. I will follow-up with Bruce on how if relates to BF Program. Based on my understanding of BF Statute, we should have the authority to close since it is not NPL Caliber or petroleum UST Site.

Rodarte MH; Carolyn Minnich, DENR BF
