supplement to the April 2008 Hazardous Materials Survey for County Facilities report by EKNA
Services, Inc. (Previous Report). LEI’s findings contained herein are based on research, site
observations, government regulations and laboratory data, which were gathered at the time and
location of the study. Opinions stated in this report do not apply to changes that may have occurred
after the services were performed.
LEI has performed specified services for this project with the degree of care, skill and diligence
ordinarily exercised by professional consultants performing the same or similar services. No other
warranty, guarantee, or representation, expressed or implied, is included or intended; unless otherwise

2.0EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Lehua Environmental Inc. (LEI) has completed this supplemental hazardous materials survey for the
County of Hawaii Keaau Fire Station located at 16-579 Old Volcano Road in Keaau, Hawaii (Subject
Site). This report supplements the Previous Report conducted by EKNA Service, Inc. On September
22, 2017, LEI personnel performed site reconnaissance to identify and inventory suspect asbestos-
containing material (ACM), lead painted surfaces, mercury-containing lamps and PCB-containing light
ballasts not previously identified at the Subject Site.
Summary of ACM Survey
The 1” x 1” ceramic floor tiles and associated grout and leveling compound were identified to be non-
ACM by laboratory analysis. No ACM was identified during this supplemental hazardous materials
survey at the Subject Site.
Table 1 located in Appendix I summarizes this result.
Summary of Lead Paint Survey
One (1) sampled painted surface was identified to have a lead paint concentration greater than or equal
to 5,000 mg/kgand is considered to be Lead-Based Paint (LBP). The LBP was identified was the beige
metal conduit pipe located in Room 108 of the Subject Site. The following table lists this result.
Table 2 located in Appendix I summarizes the results of all the samples collected during the lead paint
survey.

3.0INTRODUCTION/PURPOSE
The purpose of this supplemental hazardous materials survey was to investigate the Subject Site for the
presence of ACM, lead painted surfaces, mercury-containing lamps and PCB-containing light ballasts
not previously identified in the Previous Report for the Subject Site. Specifically, LEI completed the
following tasks:
Reviewed the April 2008 Hazardous Materials Survey report completed by EKNA Services,
Inc.;
Performed site reconnaissance at the Subject Site;
Visually inspected all accessible areas of the Subject Site;
Collected three (3) samples of suspect ACM from the Subject Site;
Submitted the thirty (3) samples of suspect ACM to Hawaii Analytical Laboratory, LLC for
analysis of asbestos via Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) in accordance with the AHERA
protocol and NIOSH Method 600/R-93/116;
Collected three (3) paint chip samples from the Subject Site;
Submitted the three (3) paint chip samples to Hawaii Analytical Laboratories, LLC for analysis
via EPA Method 7000B for total lead content;
Inspected the Subject Site for suspect mercury-containing light bulbs and PCB-containing light
ballasts; and
Prepared this report documenting the field activities and the results of the survey, including
analytical results, photographs, recommendations and maps.

4.0METHODOLOGY
4.1Asbestos Survey
LEI’s State of Hawaii certified asbestos inspector collected a total of three (3) samples of suspect
ACM for asbestos analysis. All of the suspect ACM samples were collected from the Subject Site in
general accordance with EPA guidelines and recommendations.
The suspect ACM were carefully cut out and placed into a labeled re-sealable plastic bag. The
sampling equipment was cleaned between each sample collection to avoid cross-contamination
between samples. The approximate quantity of each suspected asbestos-containing material was
noted. Sample locations were randomly selected in accordance with EPA protocols and
recommendations.
All samples were properly logged and recorded following strict chain of custody procedure and
submitted to Hawaii Analytical Laboratory, LLC in Honolulu, Hawaii for analysis by polarized light
microscopy in accordance with EPA Method 600/R-93/116. Hawaii Analytical Laboratory, LLC is
accredited for bulk asbestos analysis through successful participation in the National Voluntary Lab
Accreditation Program (NVLAP).
4.2Lead Paint
LEI’s State of Hawaii certified lead-based paint risk assessor collected three (3) paint chip samples
from the Subject Site in accordance with the EPA guidelines and recommendations.
The suspect lead-containing paints were wetted with amended water before sample collection. Paint
was carefully scraped and placed into a labeled re-sealable plastic bag. The sampling equipment was
cleaned between each sample collection to avoid cross-contamination between samples. The sample
was properly logged and recorded following strict chain of custody procedure and submitted to Hawaii
Analytical Laboratory, LLC for analysis in accordance with EPA method 7000B.
4.3Mercury-Containing Lamps and PCB-Containing Light Ballasts
LEI made visual observations to inventory and identify the presence of mercury-containing lamps and
PCB-containing light ballasts.
Fluorescent light ballasts were inspected for the presence of labeling stating “No PCBs”. If labeling
was not observed on the light ballasts and/or if the ballasts were not accessible, the ballast was
assumed to be PCB-containing.
Fluorescent light bulbs were inspected for the presence of labeling stating “No Mercury”. If labeling
was not observed on the light bulb or if the light bulb was not accessible, the light bulb was assumed to
be mercury-containing.

No ACM was identified during this supplemental hazardous materials survey at the Subject Site.
Table 1 located in Appendix I summarizes the results of all the sampled materials collected at the
Subject Site. The laboratory results are included in Appendix IV.
5.2Lead Paint
The yellow concrete floor stripping located on the concrete floors of room 101 & 108 of the Subject
Site was identified to be LBP. Table 2 in Appendix I summarizes these findings. Photograph of this
paint is included in the Lead Survey Photograph Log in Appendix II. Map 2 located in Appendix III
