Small tools shall be defined as tools and equipment (power or non-power) with an individual purchase cost of less than $750 7. Deduct Change Orders and Net Deduct Changes: The application of the markup percentage will apply to both additive and deductive change orders. In the case of a deductive change order, the credit will be computed by applying the percentage so that a deductive change order would be computed in the same manner as an additive change order. In those instances where a change involves both additive and deductive work, the additions and deductions will be netted and the markup percentage adjustments will be applied to the net amount F. Regardless of the method used by the Owner in determining the value of a change order, the Contractor, within thirty (30) calendar days after a request for the estimate of value shall submit to the Owner a detailed breakdown of the Contractor's estimate, including all subcontractors details, of the value of the Change Order Work, in the format detailed in Exhibit A.

The notice shall briefly state the reasons for the termination and shall specify a termination date. If arrangements satisfactory to the Owner are not made to remove and remedy the violation, the Contract shall terminate upon the date specified by the Owner in the notice. In the event of termination, the Owner may take over and complete the Work at the expense of the Contractor. The Contractor and Contractor's surety shall be liable to the Owner for all costs thereby incurred by the Owner.

Section 6.02 - Termination for Convenience of Owner The Owner, at any time, may terminate the Contract in whole or in part. Any said termination shall be effected by delivering to the Contractor a notice of termination specifying the extent to which performance of Work under the Contract is terminated and the date upon which said termination becomes effective. Upon receipt of the notice of termination, the Contractor shall act promptly to minimize the expenses resulting from said termination. The Owner shall pay the Contractor for costs actually incurred by the Contractor up to the effective date of said termination, but in no event shall the Contractor be entitled to compensation in excess of the total consideration of the Contract. In the event of said termination the Owner may take over the Work and prosecute same to completion.

File a notice with the Owner which sets forth the basis of the Contractor's claim and requests a resolution of the dispute. Such notice shall be filed within fifteen (15) working days after being ordered to perform the disputed work or within fifteen (15) working days after commencing performance of the disputed work, whichever is earlier, or within fifteen (15) working days after the act or omission of the Owner which the Contractor claims is contrary to the terms of the Contract. 2. Proceed diligently with the performance of the work in accordance with the instructions of the Owner pending the resolution of the dispute by the Owner. 3. Promptly comply with the order of the Owner regarding the disputed matter. 4.

The Contractor may file a notice with the Owner reserving its rights in connection with the dispute but shall comply with the Owner's decision and complete the work as directed. B. No claim for additional costs regarding changed or extra work shall be allowed unless the work was done pursuant to a written order of the Owner. C. The value of claims for extra work, if allowed, shall be determined by the methods described in the Contract. Refer to Article 4 of these General Conditions. D. The Contractor's failure to comply with any or all parts of Article 7 shall be deemed to be: 1. a conclusive and binding determination on the part of the Contractor that the order, work, action or omission is not contrary to the terms and provisions of the Contract; 2. a waiver by the Contractor of all claims for additional compensation, time extension, or damages as a result of said order, work, action or omission. 15 Rev 12.2018 ARTICLE 8 -- SUBCONTRACTS Section 8.01 - Subcontracting A. The Contractor may utilize the services of Subcontractors. B.

The Contractor shall keep informed of the progress and workmanship of other contractors and shall notify the Owner immediately of lack of progress or defective workmanship on the part of other contractors where said delay or defective workmanship may interfere with the Contractor's operations. D. Failure of a Contractor to keep so informed and failure to give notice of lack of progress or defective workmanship by others shall be construed as acceptance by the Contractor of said progress and workmanship as being satisfactory for proper coordination with the Work. 16 Rev 12.2018 E. If the Contractor notifies the Owner, in writing, that another contractor on the Site is failing to coordinate the work of said contractor with the Work, the Owner shall investigate the charge. If the Owner finds it to be true, the Owner shall promptly issue such directions to the other contractor with respect thereto as the situation may require. The Owner shall not be liable for any damages suffered by the Contractor by reason of the other contractor's failure to promptly comply with the directions so issued by the Owner, or by reason of another contractor's default in performance. F. If the Owner shall determine that the Contractor is failing to coordinate the Work with the work of other contractors as the Owner has directed: 1. the Owner shall have the right to withhold any payments due under the Contract until the Owner's directions are complied with by the Contractor; and 2. the Contractor shall indemnify and hold the Owner harmless from any and all claims or judgments for damages and from any costs or damages to which the Owner may be subjected or which the Owner may suffer or incur by reason of the Contractor's failure promptly to comply with the Owner's directions.

Before commencing the performance of any work covered by the Contract, the Contractor shall furnish to the Owner any required Bonds. The failure of the Contractor to supply the required Bonds within ten (10) days after the Contract signing shall constitute a default. Section 10.05 - Risks Assumed by the Contractor A. Indemnification. The Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Owner and its trustees, officers, agents and employees from and against all claims, damages, losses, fines, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or resulting from the performance of the work including, but not limited to, bodily or personal injury, sickness, disease, death, or injury or damage to tangible property, to the extent they arise out of or result from: 1. any negligent act or omission, or intentional or willful misconduct, violation of law, or breach of this Contract by the Contractor, or any of its subcontractors, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, or 2. any injury to an employee of the Contractor, its subcontractors, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them.

B. In the event that Contractor is requested but refuses to honor its indemnification obligations hereunder, then the Contractor shall, in addition to all other obligations, pay the cost, including reasonable attorneys' fees, of bringing an action to enforce such indemnification obligations. C. Neither the Owner's final acceptance of the work to be performed hereunder nor the making of any payment shall release the Contractor from its obligations under this Section. The enumeration elsewhere in the Contract of particular risks assumed by the Contractor or of particular claims for which the Contractor is responsible shall not be deemed to limit the effect of the provisions of this Section or to imply that the Contractor assumes or is only responsible for risk or claims of the type enumerated. Section 10.06 - Contractor's Compensation and Liability Insurance A. The Contractor shall procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, until final acceptance by the Owner of all the work covered by this Contract, the following kinds of insurance: 1. Worker's Compensation Insurance. A policy complying with the requirements of the laws of the State of New York and any other laws that may be applicable thereto, including Coverage B - Employer's Liability with a limit of not less than $1,000,000. 19 Rev 12.2018 2. Contractor's Comprehensive General Liability Insurance. A standard comprehensive general liability insurance policy, with contractual, completed operations, explosion, collapse and underground property damage coverage’s issued to and covering the liability of the Contractor for all work and operations under this Contract, all obligations assumed by the Contractor under this Contract and all damage to work performed by subcontractors on your behalf. The Contractor shall provide Broad Form Comprehensive General Liability Insurance, and the Owner shall be an additional insured in the policy. The policy shall include cross liability coverage and shall be endorsed to indicate that it is primary coverage. The completed operations coverage’s shall be maintained for not less than two years after acceptance of the work. The coverage under such policy shall be not less than a combined single limit for Bodily Injury and Property Damage as follows, or such limits carried by the Contractor, whichever is greater: BODILY INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY (BROAD FORM) $ 5,000,000 Each Occurrence $ 5,000,000 Aggregate 3.

In addition to maintaining all of the above insurances, the Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Owner and its agents and employees from and against liability, including additional premium due because of the Contractor's failure to maintain coverage limits as required under this section. C. Insurance similar to that required of the Contractor shall be provided by or on behalf of all subcontractors to cover their own operations performed under this Contract. The Contractor shall be held responsible for any modifications in these insurance requirements as they apply to subcontractors. 20 Rev 12.2018 D. Before commencing the performance of any work covered by the Contract, the Contractor shall furnish to the Owner a current certificate or certificates, in duplicate, of the insurance required under the foregoing provisions including copies of subcontractor’s certificates. Such certificates shall be on a form prescribed by the Owner, shall list the various coverage’s and shall contain, in addition to any provisions hereinbefore required, a provision that the policy shall not be changed or cancelled and that it will be automatically renewed upon expiration and continued in force until final acceptance by the Owner of all the work covered by the Contract, unless the Owner is given thirty (30) days written notice to the contrary. Upon renewal of each of the Contractor's insurance coverage’s, the Owner shall be provided with a new certificate of insurance showing such renewal. Certificates and written notices shall be directed to the Office of Facilities Contracts. The Contractor shall furnish the Owner with a certified copy of each policy including any and all exclusions to such policy. E. If at any time any of the above required insurance policies should be cancelled, terminated or modified so that insurance is not in effect as above required, then, if the Owner shall so direct, the Contractor shall suspend performance of the work covered in the Contract. If the said work is so suspended, no extension of time shall be due on account thereof. The Owner may, at its option, obtain insurance affording coverage equal to that above required, at the Contractor's expense. Section 10.07 - Liability Insurance of the Owner A. The Owner, at its own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain such liability insurance as will, in its opinion, protect the Owner from its contingent liability to others for damages because of bodily injury, including death, and property damage which may arise from operations under this Contract. 21 Rev 12.2018 Section 10.08 - Owner's and Contractor's Responsibilities for Fire and Extended Coverage Insurance Hazards A.

The insurance shall name Cornell University and the State of New York, all subcontractors and sub- subcontractors. The insurance policy shall contain a provision that the insurance will not be cancelled or allowed to expire until the Contractor has given at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Cornell University. The insurance shall cover the entire work at the site, including reasonable compensation for Architect’s services and expenses made necessary by an insured loss. Insured property shall include portions of the work located away from the site and in transit to the site. The policy shall cover the cost of removing debris and demolition as may be legally necessary. The policy shall cover any boiler or machinery loss which may be suffered during installation and until final acceptance. The insurance required shall be written to cover “all risk” of physical loss including a loss due to collapse. Any deductible shall be the responsibility of the Contractor but in no case shall the deductible be more than $10,000 unless Cornell University has agreed to a higher deductible. The Contractor shall provide to Cornell University a certificate of insurance and a summary of coverage’s including all endorsements and exclusions prior to commencement of the work. Once the policy is received, the Contractor shall provide a copy of such policy to Cornell University. There shall be a mutual waiver of recovery between Cornell University, the Contractor and all other parties to the extent such losses are covered by the builders risk policy. If Cornell University wishes to occupy the building prior to final acceptance and if the policy contains a provision which limits coverage for such partial occupancy, the parties agree work together to obtain consent of the insurance company for such partial occupancy or use under mutually acceptable terms. B. Losses, if any, under such insurance shall be payable to the Owner. C. The Contractor shall be responsible for any and all loss of materials connected with the construction due to unexplainable disappearance, theft or misappropriation of any kind or nature. D. The foregoing provisions shall not operate to relieve the Contractor and subcontractors of responsibility for any loss or damage to their own or rented property or property of their employees, of whatever kind or nature, or on account of labor performed under the Contract incidental to the repair, replacement, salvage, or restoration of such items, including but not limited to tools, equipment, forms, scaffolding, and temporary structures, including their contents, regardless of ownership of such contents, except for such contents as are to be included in and remain a part of the permanent construction.

The Contractor and subcontractors severally waive any rights of recovery they may have against the Owner and the Architect for damage or destruction of their own or rented property, or property of their employees of whatever kind or nature. 22 Rev 12.2018 Section 10.09 - Effect of Procurement of Insurance A. Neither the procurement nor the maintenance of any type of insurance by the Owner or the Contractor shall in any way be construed or be deemed to limit, discharge, waive or release the Contractor from any of the obligations and risks imposed upon the Contractor by the Contract or to be a limitation on the nature or extent of such obligations and risks. Section 10.10 - No Third Party Rights A. Nothing in the Contract shall create or give to third parties; any claim or right of action against the Contractor, the Architect, and the Owner beyond such as may legally exist irrespective of the Contract. ARTICLE 11 -- USE OR OCCUPANCY PRIOR TO ACCEPTANCE BY OWNER Section 11.01 – Substantial Completion A. The term "substantial completion" means the completion of the Work to the extent that Cornell University may have uninterrupted occupancy or use of the facility or specified portion thereof for the purpose for which intended. The Contractor shall obtain all certificates of occupancy required prior to occupancy, and any electrical, mechanical and plumbing certificates, or other certificates or required approvals and acceptances by City, County, and State governments or other authority having jurisdiction. Section 11.02 - Occupancy Prior to Acceptance A. If, before Final Acceptance, the Owner desires Beneficial Occupancy of the Work, or any part thereof, which is completed or partly completed, or to place or install therein equipment and furnishings, the Owner shall have the right to do so, and the Contractor shall in no way interfere with or object to said Beneficial Occupancy by the Owner. B. Said Beneficial Occupancy (1) shall not constitute acceptance of space, systems, materials or elements of the Work, nor shall said Beneficial Occupancy affect the start of any guarantee period, and (2) shall not affect the obligations of the Contractor for Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract or other obligations of the Contractor under the Contract. C. The Contractor shall continue the performance of the Work in a manner which shall not unreasonably interfere with said use, occupancy and operation by the Owner. ARTICLE 12 -- PAYMENT Section 12.01 - Provision for Payment A. The Owner agrees to pay the Contract Price to the Contractor for the performance of this Contract and the fulfillment of all the Contractor's obligations. The Contract Price means all costs reimbursable under the Contract Documents. 23 Rev 12.2018 B. The final certificate of the Architect shall certify that the Contract has been completed within the stipulated time, and shall not be issued until all drawings and specifications have been returned to the Owner. The issuance of said certificates, however, or any payments made thereon shall not lessen the total responsibility of the Contractor to complete the work to the satisfaction of the Owner in accordance with the Contract. C. Payments on the Contract Price shall be made each month as the work progresses in accord with the following procedure: 1. The Contractor's schedule of values, including quantities, aggregating the total Contract Price, divided so as to facilitate payments to subcontractors as specified herein, shall be the basis for monthly progress payments. This schedule, as shown in the E-Builder Schedule of Values Process, when approved by the Owner shall be used as a basis for progress payments. In applying for payments, the Contractor shall submit a statement based upon this approved schedule. 2. (a) On a date agreed upon by the Owner, Architect, and Contractor, a meeting shall be held by the Owner to review the work completed and materials on hand. This meeting shall review each item to be submitted by the Contractor in the requisition for payment. (b) On the first day of each month, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the Contractor shall submit via the E-Builder Payment Application Process, a statement and all applicable documentation setting forth in detail the cost of the work done and materials delivered to the job site up to and including the last day of the previous month and shall make application for payment of ninety percent (90%) of the amount of said statement, less the aggregate of all previous payments made by the Owner against the Contract Price. (c) Each statement and application shall be accompanied by an affidavit, executed by the Contractor, certifying that the statement is true and correct, and that all bills for labor, and materials incorporated in or delivered to the job, due and payable at the time of the preceding progress payment, have been paid. The Contractor shall attach a single .pdf file of certified payrolls for all employees on the project as indicated in the EBuilder Payment Application Process. Before final payment is made, the Contractor shall submit evidence that all payrolls, material bills and other indebtedness incurred in connection with the Contract have been paid, including final waivers of any liens. 3. Each such application for payment shall be subject to the review and approval of the Architect. If the Architect finds that the affidavit and application for payment are acceptable and that all the above requirements in connection therewith have been complied with, the Architect shall, within seven (7) calendar days after receiving such application for payment, certify to the Owner that the payment applied for is due and payable to the Contractor. 24 Rev 12.2018 4. The issuance of a Certificate for Payment constitutes a representation by the Architect to the Owner, based on the date of the Application for Payment, that the work has progressed to the point indicated, that, to the best of their knowledge, information, and belief, the quality of the work is in accordance with the Contract Documents and that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified. The Owner shall make payment in the manner provided in the Agreement within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the approved Certificate in E-Builder. Approval of the Payment Application by the Architect shall not be deemed to represent that the Architect has made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the work or that the Architect has reviewed the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, or proceedings or that the Architect has made any examination to ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used the monies previously paid on account of the Contract Sum. Section 12.02 – Stored Materials & Equipment A. The Contractor may submit, no more than thirty (30) calendar days after contract approval and prior to the first application for payment, a written request to Cornell University for permission to invoice for critical materials and equipment ready, but not yet incorporated into the work. For the purpose of this paragraph, "critical materials and equipment" eligible for payment are defined as those items affecting project schedule or budget as determined by Cornell University's evaluation of the project schedule. This includes finished goods normally shipped to the job site in a condition ready for incorporation into the work that require significant time for delivery. Raw materials or work-in-process at a manufacturer's plant location shall not be eligible for such consideration unless the Contractor can demonstrate that Cornell University can save money by purchasing material in bulk quantities at the beginning of the project. B. Cornell University will be under no obligation to accept such requests. C. Payment authorized by Cornell University for such "long-lead" critical materials and equipment not yet incorporated in the work will be made provided the Contractor submits Exhibit H and complies with the following: 1. Items shall be listed in the “Total Materials Presently Stored” column on the Application for Payment. 2. Transfer of Title shall be executed and included in the Application for Payment. 3. The method used to store off-site items shall be described in the Contractor's request to invoice for such materials and equipment. Cornell University shall give prior approval of the location of off-site storage. Items requiring special environmental conditions to protect their integrity (temperature, humidity, etc.) shall be continuously stored in such an environment. 25 Rev 12.2018 4. Items in storage shall be identified as property of Cornell University, and a description of the identification method used shall be submitted in the Application for Payment. Contractor shall maintain all necessary insurance on items in storage. 5. A written and photographic inventory of items and method used to verify such inventory, including Contractor's certification that all quantities have been received in good condition at the job site or other location acceptable to Cornell University shall be submitted with the Application for Payment. 6. A copy of the vendor's invoice is included with the Contractor's invoice. Packing lists will not be accepted. D. Cornell University retains the right to verify storage by physical inspection prior to payment approval and at any time thereafter. Such payment shall not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility for protecting, safeguarding, and properly installing the equipment or materials. The Warranty and Guarantee period shall not commence until installation and final acceptance of the completed work by Cornell University. The Contractor shall bear the cost of transporting materials stored off-site to the site E. Each subsequent invoice will restate the prior months' materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work and current month additions and deletions for materials and equipment incorporated into the Work. F. Upon the making of partial payment by Cornell University, all work, materials, and equipment covered thereby shall become the sole property of Cornell University. Partial payments, however, shall not constitute acceptance of the Contractor's work by Cornell University, nor be construed as a waiver of any right or claim by Cornell University. Section 12.03 – Retention A. Retention in the amount of ten percent (10%) of the value of the work done and materials furnished and installed under this Agreement shall be retained by the Owner as part security for the faithful performance of the Contractor’s work within the time specified, and shall be paid as indicated in Section 12.06. B. Cornell University in its sole discretion may, upon the Contractor's application thereof, release retention applicable to a subcontractor, provided that there are no outstanding claims associated with the subcontractor's work and the subcontractor and Contractor submit an acceptable partial or final release when submitting the payment application process. If the project is bonded, a Consent of Surety to the reduction must be attached as well. 26 Rev 12.2018 Section 12.04 - Withholding Payments A. The Owner may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or a part of any Certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect the Owner from loss on account of: 1. Defective work not remedied. 2. To assure payment of just claims of any persons supplying labor or materials for the work and to discharge any lien filed against the Owner's property. 3. A reasonable doubt that the Contract can be completed for the balance of the Contract Price then unpaid. 4. Damage to another Contractor. 5. Unsatisfactory prosecution of the work by the Contractor. 6. Failure to provide and maintain an acceptable Critical Path Method Network Schedule. Section 12.05 – Documents and Conditions Precedent to Final Payment A. As-Built Documentation 1. Prior to acceptance by the Owner of all work covered by the Contract, the Contractor shall furnish to the Owner through the Architect one (1) set of current reproducible full-size Contract Drawings on which the Contractor has recorded in a neat and workmanlike manner all instances where actual field construction differs from work as indicated on the Contract Drawings. B. Final Documentation: 1. Prior to final payment, and before the issuance of a final certificate for payment in accordance with the provisions of these General Conditions, file the following documents with the Owner. a. Warranties, Bonds, Service & Maintenance Contracts and any other extended guarantees stated in the technical sections of the Specifications. b. Release or Waiver of Lien for the Contractor and Sub-Contractors in accordance with Exhibit C, attached hereto. c. Project Record Documents as defined in General Requirements Section 01 78 39. d. Notification that Final Punch List work has been completed. e. Manufacturers Instruction and Maintenance Manuals as defined in General Requirements Section 01 78 23. 27 Rev 12.2018 f. Fixed Equipment Inventory as defined in General Requirements Section 01 78 22. 2. The Contractor shall also provide a CD containing scanned .pdf format and/or Word Documents of all documentation. Section 12.06 - Final Payment and Release A. When the Contractor determines that the work or a designated portion thereof is substantially complete, the Contractor shall prepare for submission to the Owner a list of items to be completed or corrected. This list, prepared by the Contractor, shall constitute a complete detailed list of defects and deficiencies which, when remedied, will complete all Contract requirements. The submittal shall be accompanied by a statement to that effect. B. The failure to include any items on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

The Survey was performed to address all accessible suspect materials with the potential to be impacted as a part of the upcoming Low Rise 9 Certificate of Occupancy Enabling and Heater Replacement Project. The initial stage included a review of past Delta Survey information, Cornell 4D Database Information, and Survey Information from other Cornell Consultants for the Building. Bulk sample results through previous sampling efforts have been incorporated into this Survey and associated Survey Report where applicable. On December 3rd, 2020 Delta Certified Inspector Thomas Ferro was onsite to perform a walkthrough to visually inspect all accessible rooms/areas included in the project and perform material sampling. Based on a review of the Project Construction Review Submission Drawing Set (dated 12-01-2020) a review of existing sample information as referenced above, and a visual inspection of the affected rooms / building spaces, a total of ten (10) bulk samples were collected representing five (5) separate suspect homogenous building materials. All ten (10) of the samples collected were non-friable organically bound (NOB) representing the five (5) homogenous materials. In addition to the materials sampled, numerous other suspect materials were observed to be present but were addressed though previous sampling efforts at the building, as referenced above. The accessible suspect homogenous building materials sampled as a part of this survey and/or included in previous sampling efforts at High Rise 5 include the following: Homogenous Area (HA) Suspect Building Material 01 Carpet Mastic 02 Tan Interior Door Frame Caulk 03 Gray Interior Door Frame Caulk 04 Light Grey Mottled 12" x 12" Floor Tile 05 Mastic from Light Grey Mottled 12" x 12" Floor Tile 06* Door Core Material (both ACM & Non-ACM Identified in Building) 07* Wall and Ceiling System Sheetrock 08* Wall and Ceiling System Joint Compound 09* Mastic from Wood Cove Base 10* All colors / sizes of Vinyl Cove Base 11* All Mastics from Vinyl Cove Bases 12* Interior Wiring present in all Ceiling-hung Heater Units 13* All Splined and Adhered 12" x 12" Ceiling Tiles 14* Terrazzo Flooring / Cove 15* Dumbwaiter Shaft Sheetrock 16* Dumbwaiter Shaft Joint Compound * - Material included in Cornell 4D Database, previously sampled by Delta, or previously sampled by “Other” Cornell Consultant 4 860 Hooper Road Endwell, NY 13760 Tel: 607.231.6600 Fax: 607.231.6650 www.delta-eas.com Specific information required by 12 NYCRR Part 56-5.1, (f) – “Building/Structure Asbestos Survey Information” to be included in this pre-renovation report is as follows: 1) Building Name/Address: Low Rise 9 (Bldg. 3209) 142 Program House Drive, Ithaca, NY 14850 2) Owner’s Name/Address: Cornell University Humphreys Service Building Ithaca, NY 14853 3) Owner’s Agent: Mr. Dale Houseknecht 4) Survey Performed By: Delta Engineers, Architects, & Land Surveyors 860 Hooper Road, Endwell, NY 13760 5) Certified Inspectors: Thomas Ferro, Certificate No. 99-11328 6) Date of Survey: December 3, 2020 7) Laboratory: America Science Team New York, Inc. 117 East 30th Street, New York, NY 10016 5 860 Hooper Road Endwell, NY 13760 Tel: 607.231.6600 Fax: 607.231.6650 www.delta-eas.com 2.0 ASBESTOS SURVEY AND SAMPLING PROCEDURES AND METHODS: 2.1 Survey requirements Requirements to perform Pre-Demolition/Pre-Renovation Asbestos Surveys are based on the following State and Federal Regulations.

Unassessed PACM or suspect miscellaneous ACM shall be treated and handled as ACM and assumed to be ACM, unless proven otherwise by standard EPA and OSHA accepted methods, including multi-layered systems sampling protocols; subsequent analyses performed by a laboratory that meets the requirements of Section 56-4.2 of this Part; and the analyses satisfies both NYS ELAP and federal requirements, including multi-layered sample analyses, to document non-asbestos containing material. 2.2 Sample Analysis Bulk sample analysis was performed by American Science Team New York Inc., an independent laboratory approved/accredited by the NYS Department of Health (ELAP), the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA), and the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). 11 860 Hooper Road Endwell, NY 13760 Tel: 607.231.6600 Fax: 607.231.6650 www.delta-eas.com Samples collected during the course of this survey fell into one of two categories. The first category includes non-friable organically bound (NOB) materials. These materials are those which have an organic binder in their matrix and include items such as floor tiles, sheet flooring, mastics, glazings, caulks and roofing materials. The second category includes non-NOB “friable” materials including parging, sheetrock, joint compound, wall insulations, and wallboard. Analysis of all “NOB” materials was initially performed by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) following the New York State Department of Health ELAP 198.6 Gravimetric Reduction Methodology. If a given sample was reported as non-asbestos following this analysis, it was then analyzed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) following the NYS DOH ELAP 198.4 Methodology. Analysis of all “non-NOB” materials was performed by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) following the EPA 600/M4/82/020 and the NYS DOH ELAP 198.1 Methodologies. 2.3 Materials not sampled There were several materials present at the site which were not considered “suspect” by the inspector and were not sampled.

In lieu of post-abatement clearance air monitoring in compliance with 569.2(d), the most recent daily abatement air samples (both inside and outside work area samples) collected during removal and cleaning operations in the regulated abatement work area, shall be used for comparison with 56-4.1 1 clearance criteria. 55. After removal and cleanings are complete, an authorized and certified Project Monitor, independent of the Abatement Contractor, shall determine if the area is dry and free of visible asbestos debris as per 56-9.1(d)(1). If the area is determined to be acceptable and the most recent daily abatement air sample results meet 56-4.11 clearance criteria, the final dismantling of the site may begin. 56. Upoh completion of the ACM intact component removal, all remaining waste materials shall be removed within each work area and the critical barrier caulk, tape and/or interior plastic sheeting, shall be containerized or immediately wrapped in two layers of 6 mil, fire retardant plastic sheeting or bagged and secured air tight prior to transport to the waste decontamination facility. Elevated Pipe Removals (Only minor and small abatement projects allowed) 57. The full time on-site Project Monitor will be responsible to determine if pipe/fitting insulation or other thermal system insulations is too damaged to perform wrap-and-cut or glovebag operations. Any thermal system insulation that is significantly damaged and will likely be disturbed during wrapping or glovebag installation, shall require gross removal within a negative pressure enclosure as per the conditions of this variance. All failures of the abatement contractor to comply with the project monitor's determination regarding damage shall be immediately reported by the project monitor to the local district of the asbestos control bureau. 58. The restricted areas, regulated abatement work areas, decontamination units, airlocks, and dumpster areas shall be cordoned off at a distance of twenty-five feet (25') where possible, and shall remain vacated except for certified workers until satisfactory clearance air monitoring results have been achieved or the abatement project is complete. For areas where 25-feet aren't possible, the areas shall be cordoned off as practical, and a daily abatement air sample shall be included within 10 feet of the barrier. These areas shall have Signage posted in accordance with Subpart 56-8.1 (b) of this Code Rule. Pipe/Fitting Insulation Removals at or Below 15 Feet in Height 59. All provisions of ICR 56-8.4(a) for glovebag removals completed within negative pressure enclosure shall be followed for removal of pipe and fitting insulations located at or below 15 feet in height from the ground/floor Page 11 of 14 File Number 20-0068 Elevated <Greater than 15 Feet in Height Pipe and Fitting Insulation Removals: 60. Remote Decontamination Units as per ICR 56-7.5(d) are allowed for this portion of the project. provided glovebags are used for all insulation removals. 61. If remote decontamination units are to be used, an airlock as defined in Subpart 56-7.5(b)(11) of this Code Rule shall be constructed at the entrance to each regulated abatement work area, and shall be large enough to serve as a changing area. Wrthin the airlock, workers shall remove their outer suit, wipe off their inner suit and don a clean outer suit prior to proceeding to another work area or to the remote personal decontamination unit over a walk way as defined above. The airlock/changing area shall not be used as a waste storage area. 62. The Remote Personal Decontamination Unit must be located as close to the abatement area as practicable. The walkway from the regulated abatement work area to the decontamination system shall have a cleared pathway. This walkway will be delineated and separated from non-certified personnel access. 63. The restricted work areas and decontamination unit shall be cordoned off as proposed and shall remain vacated except for certified workers. These areas shall have signage posted in accordance with subpart 56-8. 1 (b) of this Code Rule. 64. Entry/Exit of all persons and equipment shall be through one designated and secure "doorway" in the barrier or fence, which shall provide an adequate and appropriate means of egress from the work area. 65. Personal protective equipment as required by ICR 56 shall be required of and used by all persons within the work area. 66. All workers within the work area and all equipment operators accessing the work area to disturb asbestos-containing materials, shall be certified in accordance with ICR 56-3.2. 67.

This dropcloth shall be a minimum of 10 feet wide with an additional1 O-ft. of width for every 20 feet in height above the floor/ground level where removal work will take place. This dropcloth shall be removed and containerized following removal of the glovebags or abandoned piping, prior to the cleaning stage. All remnants observed on the dropcloth shall be collected and immediately bagged or containerized for disposal as ACM. 69. If a straight scaffolding, man-lift, swing scaffolding or similar equipment is used, the lift/scaffolding unit shall be plasticized with two layers of 6 mil fire retardant polyethylene on the platform with plastic sheeting on all platform sides. While the platform/lift walking surfaces must be plasticized, the Contractor must provide proper traction surfaces or equipment to assure the safety and comfort of abatement workers while performing abatement activities on the lift/scaffold equipment. After glovebags are removed from each work location, the platform and plasticized surfaces shall be wet wiped and/or HEPA vacuumed clean before reuse. The plastic on the lift or scaffolding shall be periodically inspected during use and repaired as needed. 70. A commercially available negative pressure glovebags may be utilized for removals, in lieu of glovebag removals within negative pressure tent/shroud enclosures. Glovebag removal procedures shall be consistent with ICR 568.4 and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101, for all insulation removals. 71. If negative pressure glovebags are not available, standard glovebags placed under negative pressure using a HEPA vacuum during removal may be utilized. These glovebags shall be fitted with adequate interior support to prevent collapse while under negative pressure. The integrity of the glovebag shall not be compromised by this additional support. 72. The makeup air inlet to the glovebag shall be fitted with a HEPA filter 73. Actions that shall be taken in the event of a loss of glovebag integrity are as outlined in Subpart 56-8.4(a)(1 1 ). 74. Once ACM removal has been completed, one thorough cleaning as described in ICR 56-9.1(e) and one settling, waiting period shall suffice, except when an air test fails. 75. The contractor shall observe, at a minimum, two-hour waiting (settling/drying) periods for glovebag removals, and 20-minute waiting (settling/drying) periods for man-lift removals. 76. After removal and cleanings are complete and a minimum drying period has elapsed, Project Monitor shall determine if the area is dry and free of visible asbestos debris. For man-lift work areas, if the area is determined to be Page 13 of 14 File Number 20-0068 acceptable and the most recent daily abatement air sample results meet 564.11 clearance criteria, the final dismantling of the site may begin. 77.

(Delta) has been hired by Cornell University to prepare and submit a Petition for a Multi-Site Facility (Campus) Wide Variance associated with relief from the 12 NYCRR Part 56 related to; I) Engineering Controls requirements for negative air pressure exhaust location provisions; 2) the clean-up of future "small project" incidental disturbances; 3) localized "Minor" coring/drilling operations through asbestos containing tloor, wall and ceiling system materials; 4) the removal of fire doors/elevator doors with asbestos containing core insulation; 5) "Intact" removal of Transite Lab-tops, Transite Table-tops & Transite-lined Fume Hoods/Base Cabinets; 6) the removal of elevated pipe insulation utilizing negative pressure glovebags, and; 7) the clean-up of future "minor project" incidental disturbances; at the Cornell Campus in Ithaca, New York. Multi-Facility (Campus) Wide Variances File No. I 1-0024 dated January 21, 201 I, File No. 14-0035 dated January 21 , 2014, and File No. 17-0034 dated January 18, 2017, and their subsequent approved Variance Amendment Letters, addressing items I through 6 above were previously approved for the Cornell University Ithaca, NY Campus. The current Campus-Wide Variance File No. I 7-0034 and its associated Variance Amendment Letters expire on January 31 ", 2020. This petition is requesting the same relief and work practice approval previously granted under File No.'s I 1-0024, 14-0035, 17-0034 and their subsequent Amendment Leiters, with the exception of Item 7 referenced above (new item request). Cornell University's Main Campus located in Ithaca, NY consists of approximately six hundred (600) individual buildings. The University has a fully staffed Environmental Safety and Health Department who oversee all internal environmental projects. All asbestos-related project monitoring, air sampling and analysis is Cornell University Ithaca Campus Attachment A of Variance Petition 2020 Campus Wide Variance Petition DELTA ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, & LAND SURVEYORS, OPC 20 006 8 Page 2 of 8 I • t I I I • • provided by 3rd pa11y independent consultants. All abatement work is performed by licensed Abatement Contractors using properly cet1ified employees. Nature of the Work: Item I - Exhausting Negative Pressure Units - Item One of this Request for a Multi-Site Campus Wide Variance is to address relief from negative pressure unit (NPU) exhaust locations for projects being perf'ormed within buildings having either inoperable windows or where the only accessible opening to the outdoors is greater than l 00' from a given regulated abatement work area. For these buildings, it is impractical to exhaust the negative pressure equipment used for interior asbestos projects directly to the exterior of the building without creating unnecessary hardships. In order to terminate the exhaust tube directly to the exterior of these buildings during interior asbestos abatement work, fire doors and/or security doors would have to remain continuously "open" during the course of a given project, which would create the potential for compromising the given buildings security and impacting fire life-safety issues. The removal of the buildings fixed inoperable window units for negative air exhaust would also compromise the building security/fire-life safety as referenced above as well as negatively impact the future integrity of the window system. Based on the tact that the Code Rule requires the negative pressure air equipment exhaust be vented directly to the outside of the building or structure, and given the existing situation/circumstances for the buildings referenced above, we are requesting relief from the following section of 12 NYCRR Part 56: Section - Title 56-7.8, (a), {I I) Reason I Proposed Plan for Protection w/o literal c-ompliance We are prop<>Sing to exhaust the NPU to an unoccupied, comrollable location within the building. This location shall be accessible for the placement of air monitoring equipment as required by the applicable sections of ICR-56 for ''large-projects". A controllable area shaH be defined as an existing vacant room or an area within a larger space isolated by barrier tape and waming signs. This location shall be adequately sized to accommodate the increase in positive pressure in the area. Item II - Clean-up of "Small" Incidental Disturbance Incidents - Item Two of this Request tor a Multi-Site Campus Wide Variance is to address the clean-up of future "small" size incidental disturbance episodes and to stabilize or remove any significantly damaged material that is the cause of the given disturbance. The procedures, means and methods detailed for an incidental disturbance asbestos project in 12 NYCRR Part 56 are limited tor use on "minor" projects only (as per definition and clari fication in the Guidance Document). Additionally, section 11.2, (f), (4) does not allow for removal during the incidental disturbance clean-up. Based on the presence of asbestos containing materials throughout the campus buildings, the potential for future incidental disturbance episodes exists. As a pro-active measure, Cornell University is requesting a Multi-Site Campus-Wide Variance to address the clean-up of future "small" incidental disturbances. Project-Specific variance requests shall be submitted for "large" sized incidental disturbance episodes. Based on this, specific relief is requested from the following sections of 12 NYCRR Part 56: Section-Title 56-11.2 (f) 56-11.2 (f), (4) Cornell University Ithaca Campus Auachment A of Variance Petition Reason I Proposed Plan tOr Protection w/o literal compliance \Ve are proposing to utilize the conditions, procedures and methods as detailed/ outlined in ~tl2 NYCRR Part 56 Subpart tt.2 - Emergency Project" for any future small size incidental disturbance clean-up projects. For those smaH -project incidental disturbance episodes where the mate.rial that is the source of the disturbance is in poor condition and beyond repair, we are propo:;ing to remove the material as a part of the incidental disturbance clean-up utilizing the appropriate method for the given damaged ACM (i.e. glovebag) \vi thin the negative pressure incidental disturbance work area. 2020 Campus Wide Variance Petition DELTA ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, & LAND SURVEYORS, DPC 2 0 0 0 6 Page 3 of 8 I • I I I I • • Item III - Core/Drilling/Fastening Operations Through/Into Asbestos Containing Material - Item Three of this Request for a Campus Wide Variance is to address localized "minor" drilling/coring/fastening operations into and/or through asbestos containing plaster or sheetrock/joint compound wa!Vceiling systems and asbestos flooring systems. These coring/drilling/fastening operations arc routinely required for Campus Fire and Life· Safety upgrade projects where various security devices, telecommunication devices, fire protection devices, sprinkler lines, surface mounted conduit, raceway/wire mold, and other items (i.e. new wall systems, chalk boards, bulletin boards, white boards, etc.) must be mounted onto or pass through ACM floor, wall and ceiling systems. The device, conduit, raceway, wire mold and miscellaneous item mounting operations typically require the drilling of a Y," diameter (or smaller) hole into a floor, wall or ceiling at a given location for the installation of anchors. Wall coring to accommodate the pass through of sprinkler lines, conduit, raceway and wire mold typically require a I" to l-112" core through the wall at a given location. Based on the fact that the amount of ACM impacted at each fastener, drilling and coring location is significantly less than I square foot (0.002 sf at each Yz" diameter drill location and 0.025 sf at each I· 1 /2" core location), we believe that it would create unnecessary hardships to construct a negative pressure tent enclosure at each fastening, drilling and coring location. We feel the requested relief is justified and the proposed abatement means and methods outlined in Attachment B are sufficient to minimize the potential tor any airborne asbestos fiber release during the fastening, drilling and coring procedures and will sufficiently protect the Abatement Workers, Facility occupants/Employees and the General Public. Specific Relief is requested from the following sections of 12 NYCRR Part 56: Section - Title 56-6 - Background Air Sampling 56-7.1 - Work Area Preparation Air Sampling 56-8. t - Asbestos Abatement Air Sampling 56·9.2 - Clearance Procedures, Air Samplil\g 56· 7.5 - Personal and Waste Decontamination System Enclosures 56·7.2 (o) - Materials and Equipmem, Ventilation for Power Tools 56· 7.8 - Engineering Controls Cornell University Ithaca Campus Attachment A of Variance Petition ReaSQn I Proposed Plan for Protection w/o literal compliance For all Coring Projects where the cumulative coring total classifies the Project as a ·'Small" or "Large'', or where che coring work is performed as a part of an overall Small or Large Project, we are proposing one air sample be C · ollected in each room/area where floor, wall or ceiling fastening/drilling/coring operations are being perfonned and one sample 110Utsiden on the same floor during work area preparation and fastening/ drilling/coring operations. For Projects where the cumulative total classifies the job as a "Minor~·, air sampling would consist of the Contractor's Personal OSHA sampling only. As the amount of asbestos material at each individual location to be impacted is extremely limited, for all Projects where the cumulative total classifies the job as a "Small" or Large", we are proposing to utilize a remote ;;small project•• decontamination enclosure system. The unit will be located in a se·c.ured room within the building where these operations are being performed. The pathway from the interior restricted work area to the decontamination system or next interior restricted work area shall be cordoned off and signage installed as per Section 56-7.4(c) while in use, to delineate it from public areas while in use during Phase liA through II D. An Airlock would be utilized fOr Projects where the cumulative total classifies the job as a "Minor'". Fastening, drilling and coring operations for all project sizes/classifications shall be performed using a manufacturer-equipped drill shield for "HEPA filtered local exhaust ventilation". As the potential to impact or otherwise disturb the floor, wall and ceiling ACM materials during fastening, drilling and coring operations is minimal, we are pr<)pOsing to utilize localized negative pressure via the use of HEPA vacuums as necessary during Phase tiA through tiD operations. 2020 Campus Wide Variance Petition 200068 DELTA ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, & LAt'lD SURVEYORS, DPC Page 4 of 8 t • I I I t • ' Section - Title Reason I Proposed Plan for Protection w/o literal compliance 56-7.11 (a), (b), (c), (e) & (I) - Regulated Abatement \Vork Area Enclosure As the potential to impact or otherwise disturb the floor, wall and ceiling ACM materials during fastening, drllling and coring operalions is minimal, we propose to perfonn the operations within an ·'Interior Restricted Are.a•·.

I outside ''Interior Restricted Area'' results in lieu of clearance air sampling. If the daily air samples are reponed as being greater than 0.0 I flee, then the interior restricted work area shall be re-cleaned and final clearance air sampling for the area shall be performed. Item IV- Removal of Door Slabs with Asbestos Containing Cores Insulation - Item Four of this Request for a Campus Wide Variance is to address the removal of door slabs with asbestos containing core insulation. Cornell University routinely replaces fire doors and Elevator Doors as they become damaged or outdated. Due to the fact that that the act of coring the doors to detennine the presence of an asbestos-core actually voids the doors rating, all doors are considered asbestos containing with the exception of solid wood units. Based on the fact that the suspect asbestos core is sealed within the door itself, and the slabs can be removed from the frames/elevator tracks without removing any hardware from the door slab itself (i.e. no potential to impact the interior core), we arc requesting relief from the following sections of 12 NYCRR Part 56 for the removal of fire doors and elevator doors with con finned/assumed ACM cores: Section - Title 56-7.1, 8.1 & 9.2 - Phase IIA, liB & JIC Air Sampling 56-7.5- Personal and Waste Decontamination System Enclosures 56-7.8 - Engineering Controls 56-7.11 (a}, (b), (c), (e) & (I) - Regulated Abatement Work Area Enclosure 56-8.2 (b) - Waiting Period Cornell University Ithaca Campus Attachment A of Variance Petition Re-ason I Proposed Plan for Protection w/o literal compliance We are proposing the collection of one air sample adjacent to each door rcmoval loc.mion and one sample ''outside/adjac.ent to" each restricted interior work area during \vork area preparation, door removal operations, and the wrapping/containerizing of the doors. As the ACM associated with the doors is "se.aled" within the door and will not be impacted or otherwise disturbed during door removal (removal !rom !Tame/track) or containerizing (wrapping}, we are proposing to utilize a "remote" Small-Project Personal Decontamination System Enclosure as per 56-7.5, (d) for all fire door and elevator door removal operations. As: the potential to impact or otherwise disturb the encased door c.ore material is minimal, we arc proposing to utilize localized negative pressure via the use ofHEPA vacuums as necessary during Phase JIA through liD operations. As the potential to impact or otherwise disturb the encased door core material is minimal, we are proposing to perfOrm the interior door removal and wrapping/containerizi ng operations within an ''Interior Restricted Area". The location where a given door removal is being performed shaH be isolated/cordoned off with barrier tape and signagc installed as per Section 56-7.4(c}, to restrict access and delineate it from public areas during Phase IIA through liD operations.

Item V Removal of Transite Lab Topsff able Tops and Transite Lined Fume Hoods/Base Cabinets Item Five of this Request for a Campus Wide Variance is to address the intact removal of Transite Lab Tops/Table Tops and Fume Hoods/Base Cabinets having an interior transite lining. Of the 600 Campus Buildings, approximately sixty (60) are involved with research & development and have laboratories equipped with transite lab tops, transite table tops and transite-lined fume hoods/Base Cabinets. Individual lab tops and table tops are generally 3' wide and range from 3' to approximately 15' in length (9 sf to 45 sf). They are normally installed over either metal/wood cabinetry or other support structures (i.e. simple table legs). The interior transite panel lining present with the fume hoods are nonnally mechanically fastened to the fume hood's metal framing on the 2 side walls, the back wall, and ceiling and total approximately 54 sf per hood. The interior transite panel lining present with the base cabinets are nonnally mechanically fastened to the cabinet walls, shelves and doors and total approximately 50 sf per hood. The University routinely either decommissions/removes these items when no longer needed or replaces the existing lab tops, table tops and fume hoods/base cabinets with new "non-asbestos" units during lab renovation projects. For those projects where the transite lab tops, table tops and interior fume hood/base cabinet transite panels must be impacted (i.e. damaged) in order to dismantle and remove the item, all work is performed within a 2layer negative pressure tent enclosure following the provisions and conditions of 12 NYCRR Part 56 and the Guidance Document. But in numerous cases, the transite lab tops, table tops, and transite-lined fume hoods/base cabinets can be removed intact without any impact to the transite materials. In these instances: - For lab tops and table tops, the entire unit (i.e. transite top and lower cabinetry/legs) is disposed of intact without any impact to the transite material. - For fume hoods, the entire hood frame (and associated transite panels) is removed intact without removing the transite from the hood framework. - For base cabinets, the entire cabinet (and associated transite panels) is removed intact without removing the transite from the hood framework. As University operations performed in these labs routinely require continual University personnel occupancy to monitor the various R&D activities, the requirement to remove, handle and package those units within a smallproject negative pressure enclosure where these operations can be accomplished without impacting the transite what-so-ever creates an unnecessary hard-ship to the University. Based on this, we are requesting relief fi·om the following sections of 12 NYCRR Part 56 to address the intact removal and disposal of Lab Tops, Table Tops and Fume Hoods/base cabinets in those situations where the associated transite will not be impacted at all during the removal, handling and packaging operations: Section - Title 56-6 - Background Air Sampling 56-7. 1- Work Area Preparation Air Sampling 56-8.1 - Asbestos Abatement Air Sampling 56-9.2 - Clcamnce Procedures.

Item VI - Removal of Elevated Pipe Insulation for Small and Minor Project Work Areas Onlv - Item Six of this Request for a Campus Wide Variance is associated with the glovebag removal of elevated in-line pipe and pipe fitting insulation for Minor and Small Project Work Areas (A Project-Specific Variance will be petitioned for to address Large-Project work areas). In several of the Comell University Ithaca Campus Buildings, including but not limited to the Central Heating Plant, the Water Treatment Plants and several other heating/treatment facilities and open-ceiling building, asbestos containing in-line pipe and pipe fitting insulation is present on elevated lines (I 5' - 50' above finished floor). The majority of these lines normally operate in excess of 160 degrees and can only be de-energized once a year for a 3-day period during the May campus-wide steam shutdown, as they service the entire campus (they must also be isolated occasionally on an emergency basis due to leaks). Based on the fact that these lines are located between 15' and 50' above the floor and they can only "nonnally'' be isolated/de-energized during the 3-day steam shutdown or on an emergency basis due to leaks, it is impractical to construct scaffolding and tents for glovebag-in-tent operations during the limited 3-day time frame/emergency shutdown time frame when the lines can be isolated. Based on past experience, TSI removal which falls within the described conditions will include less than 260 linear feet each calendar year (between 3-day steam shutdown and emergency situations throughout the year). Due to the inherent safety concerns and access limitations associated with the significantly elevated location of the insulation to be removed (15' to 50' above finished floor), and the fact that they can only be isolated/deenergized for a 3-day period each year as they service the entire campus (or on an emergency basis ifleaking), we are requesting relief from the standard negative pressure tent enclosure requirements for the perfom1ance of glovcbag abatement operations for pipe/pipe fitting insulation (TSI) located at an elevation of 15' or greater for Minor and Small Project Work Areas.

The unit will be located in a secured room within the building where these operations are being perfonned. The pathway from the interior restricted work area to the decontamination system or next interior restricted work area shall be cordoned off and signagc installed as per Section 56-7.4(c) while the pathway is in use, to delineate it from public areas while in use during Phase IIA through liD. For minor-project fastcninglcoringldrilling operations, an airlock system shall be utilized. 2) Each affected room/area/space shall be vacated for the duration of preparation, drilling I saw cutting I penetration, and cleaning operations and shall be considered a restricted area. Each affected space shall not be reoccupied until receipt of satisfactory air results as detailed below. 3) All power tools used to disturb ACM shall be HEPA ventilated as per 12 NYCRR Part 56-7.2 (0). A Nilfisk negative pressurized drill shield shall be used in combination with a suitable I-lEPA vacuum for all ACM drilling operations. ACM drilling shall proceed using manufacturer's recommended operating procedures. Wet methods (i.e. shaving cream, foam or other wet method) shall be used at the cut location. All power tools used to disturb ACM shall be HEPA ventilated as per JCR 4) The interior of the power tool dust shroud I shield is the regulated abatement work area for each ACM spot removal location. However, the room/area/space where ACM drilling operations occur shall be a restricted area, limited to certified personnel and authorized visitors only, until the asbestos project is complete and satisfactory air results have been obtained. The restricted area shall be cordoned off and signagc posted in accordance with 12 NYCRR Part 56-7.4(c) of ICR 56. 5) With the remote decontamination system or air lock system in-place, fastening, drilling and coring operations would be performed as follows: A) Floor, Wall and Ceiling Fastening/Drilling Operations-Fastening and Drilling operations would be performed for the installation of anchors to support/install surface-mounted devices, junction boxes, conduit, raceway, wire mold and other miscellaneous items (i.e. wall base-plates, Chalk boards, bulletin boards, white boards, etc.). The affected room area where fastening/drilling operations are to occur shall be isolated via barrier tape and appropriate signage. A 2-layer 6 mil tire retardant poly drop cloth shall be installed under the wall and ceiling fasteningldti lling location. Carpeting shall be protected during ACM drilling/penetration operations, if needed. The size of the drop cloth shall be a minimum of6' out from the wall by 8' in length. Fastening/drilling operations into the given floor/ wall/ceiling surface would then be perfonned utilizing a drill or Hille fitted with a manufacturer-equipped HEPA shroud. The HEPA vacuum would operate continuously during all fastening/drilling operations. Once the holes are drilled and the anchors are installed, the device/J-box/raceway/wire mold would be fastened to the surface. Upon completion of these operations, the drop cloth shall be HEPA vacuumed and placed in an asbestos disposal bag.

Coring operations at each location will be performed i.n two separate phases so that the asbestos containing surfacing material being impacted is isolated within the drill shroud (i.e. drill a hole into one side of the wall utilizing the proposed methods below then proceed to the other side of the wall and perform the identical operation). a. A 2-layer 6 mil fire retardant poly drop cloth shall be installed on both sides of the wall under the coring location. The size of the drop cloths shall be a minimum 6' out !Tom the wall by 8' in length. The drop cloths will be disposed of as asbestos waste at the completion of operations. b. As stated above, although wall coring operations will be pcrfonned in two separate phases so that the plaster or sheetrock/joint compound surface being impacted is isolated within the tool shroud/shield at all times, a commercial glovebag will be sealed to the non-drill shield side of the wall tor each coring phase at a given location. c. Coring operations would then be performed using drill fitted with a manufacturer-equipped HEPA shroud. The HEPA vacuum would operate continuously during all coring operations. The hole coring would be performed on one side of a given wall initially and would be to a minimal depth so as to core through the "active surface" of the wall only. Once this initial core is complete, the opposite surface of the wall would be cored following the identical set-up and coring procedure. d. Once the cores on both sides of a given wall location are complete, all exposed edges of the asbestos containing material shall be encapsulated. e. Upon completion of these operations at a given location, the drop cloth shall be HEPA vacuumed and placed in an asbestos disposal bag. All waste shall be double bagged within the interior restricted work area for transfer to the waste storage trailer/dumpster. The area shall then be inspected by a 3ru pa1iy independent project monitor for completeness of abatement and cleaning. 6) For all Coring Projects where the cumulative coring total classifies the Project as a "Small" or "Large", or where the coring work is being performed as a paiTI of an overall Small or Large Project, we are proposing air monitoring within each room/area/space restricted be conducted daily (on days when abatement or support activities such as ACM disturbance or cleaning activities are perfonned). One daily abatement air sample shall be collected within ten (10} feet of the ACM drilling location(s) during removal and cleaning operations. Provided that airborne fiber concentrations remain below 0.0 I fibers per cubic centimeter, clearance air sampling as described in Subpart 56-9.2, (d) will not be perfo1med. If air sample results indicate airborne fiber concentration at or above 0.0 l fibers per cubic centimeter, during device removal/installation and cleaning operations, all. surfaces present within the room where the elevated sample result was reported will be re-cleaned <llnd clearance air sampling for the given room will be performed following a two hour waiting period. For Projects where the cumulative total classifies the job as a "Minor", air sampling would consist of the Contractor's Personal OSHA sampling only. 7) When all drilling/coring operations are completed, and daily air samples are received and acceptable for a given restricted work area, then the signage and barrier tape shall be removed and the area shall be opened for access by follow-up trades to perform their work. Item 4) Fire Door/Elevator Door Removal: Fire door and elevator door abatement operations shall include the removal, wrapping and disposal of the entire door "intact" without removing any hardware form the door slab Cornell University Ithaca Campus Attachment B of Variance Petition 2020 Campus Wide Variance Petition DELTA ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, & LAND SURVEYORS, DPC 20006 8 Page 6 of 10 AN ISO 9001:2015 CERTIFIED COM PAN~ or otherwise impacting the interior asbestos core. As such, we are requesting that the following operations I procedures be used for the fire door removal and containerizing work: l) Prior to the removal of any door units, a remote small project decontamination system enclosure shall be constructed as per the requirements of 56-7.5 and shall be utilized for door removal work. The unit will be located in a secured room within, or immediately outside, the building where these operations are being perfonncd. The pathway fi·om the interior restricted work area to the decontamination system or next interior restricted work area shall be cordoned off and signage installed as per Section 56-7.4(c) while the pathway is in use, to delineate it from public areas while in use during Phase llA through liD. 2) With the remote decontamination system in-place and operational, removal of the interior fire doors and elevator doors would be perfom1ed as follows: a. The location where an active door removal is being performed will be considered an "interior restricted work area" (lRWA). It will be isolated and cordoned off at a minimum distance of25', or to the greatest extent possible without impacting life/safety issues, via Caution Tape and signage installed as per Section 56-7.4(c) to restrict access during Phase IIA through liD operations. Access to the interior restricted area shall be limited to certified personnel only. b. The door's interior asbestos core would not be impacted in any manner and would remain intact within the door shell. The doors will be removed "intact" from their frames by pulling the hinge pins and at no time shall any hardware installed on the door itself be removed. At each phase of removal, a Project Monitor Visual Inspection would be required to ensure the completeness of required procedures and to verify the integrity of the door shell/casing as "intact". c. Once a door has been removed from its fi·ame, it shall be wrapped in two layers of 6 mil fireretardant poly and placed on a wheeled cart for transport to the waste trailer. This cart would be lined with two layers of 6-mil fire retardant poly with enough overlap remaining so as to completely cover the doors once they are placed on the cart for transport. As the doors are to be wrapped within the interior regulated work area and transported on a wheeled cart directly to a waste trailer, the use of Waste Decontamination S)>stem would not be needed/required. d. The pathway used to transport the door from the active regulated work area to the waste trailer shall be cordoned off and signage installed as per Section 56-7.4(c), to delineate it from public areas while in use during transport operations. e. The doors shall then be placed in a lined dumpster and disposed of as RACM. 3) Daily "Full-Shift" Air Sampling will be perfonned during all interior door removal and wrapping operations. This will consist of one air sample being collected within each active interior restricted work area and one sample outside and adjacent to the area. Provided that airborne fiber concentrations remain below 0.01 fibers per cubic centimeter, clearance air sampling as described in Subpart 56-9.2, (d) will not be performed. If air sample results indicate airborne fiber concentration at or above 0.01 libers per cubic centimeter, during door removal and wrapping operations, all surfaces present in the given work area will be re-cleaned and clearance air sampling will be pcrfonned following a two hour waiting period. 4) The Owner will also be employing an on-site, full time, third party project monitor/AST who in addition to collecting the daily air samples, will perform a final inspection at each area as per the provisions of the current ASTM Standard El368 "Standard Practice for Visual Inspection of Asbestos Abatement Projects".

Item 5) Removal of Transite Lab Tops, Table Tops and Transite Lined Fume Hoods/Base cabinets - For those instances where the removal of Transite Lab 'fopsffablc Tops and Transite-lined Fume Hoods/base cabinets can be perfonned without impacting I damaging the transite component, the intact removal of transite lab tops, table tops, and fume hoods/base cabinets would be performed as follows: I) The Laboratory/Room where a given unit is to be removed will be considered an "interior restricted area". It will be isolated and cordoned off at each access point (i.e. entrance doors) via Caution Tape and signage installed as per Section 56-7.4(c) to restrict access during Phase IIA through liD operations. Access to the interior restricted area shall be limited to certified personnel only. 2) A 2-layer 6 mil fire retardant poly drop cloth shall be installed on the floor immediately adjacent to the unit to be removed. The drop cloth will be disposed of as asbestos waste at the completion of removal and wrapping operations. 3) Certified workers utilizing appropriate PPE shall then wrap the lab top, table top, or fume hood/base cabinet in two layers of 6-mil fire-retardant poly without impacting the associated transite in any manner. 4) Once wrapped, the lab top/table top/fume hood/bas.e cabinets shall be placed on a wheeled cart for transport to the waste trailer. This cart would be lined with two layers of 6-mil fire retardant poly with enough overlap remaining so as to completely cover the unit once it is placed on the cart for transport. 5) The pathway used to transport the unit !Tom the regulated work area to the waste trailer shall be cordoned off and signagc installed as per Section 56-7.4(c) while in use, to delineate it fi·om public areas while in use during transport operations. 6) Daily "Full-Shift" Air Sampling will be perform·ed during all lab top/table top/fume hood/base cabinet removal and wrapping operations. This will consist of one air sample being collected within each active Laboratory/Room interior restricted work area and one sample outside/adjacent to the Lab/Room.

For large-project work areas, a project specific variance would be obtained: I) For each individual TSI project where abatement operations are classified as a small-project (i.e. > 25 If I < 260 l f), a remote small project decontamination system enclosure shall be constructed as per the requirements of 56-7.5. The unit will be located at the floor level within the Interior Regulated Work Area or in a secure adjacent area and will remain in-place until the proposed clearance criteria is achieved. For Minor TSI Projects (<I= 25 If), an airlock system would be utilized. 2) The floor level area located directly beneath the active abatement area, plus 25' in all directions where feasible, shall be considered the " Interior Restricted Work Area (IR WA)". Access to the IRWA shall be restricted to certified personnel only and it will be isolated and cordoned off via Barrier Tape and signage installed as per Section 56-7.4( c) to restrict access. 3) Upon establishing the IR W A, the lift man-basket utilized to access the TSI shall be plasticized with two (2) layers of six (6) mil fi re retardant polyethylene on the platforrn, with plastic sheeting extended venically to waist-high (as so equipped) guardrail sides and back of the lift unit. While the lift walking surfaces must be plasticized, proper traction surfaces or equipment shall be provided to assure the safety and comfort of abatement workers while perforrning abatement activities on the lift equipment. After removal operations are completed for a given location, the plasticized lift man-basket surfaces shall be wet wiped and/or HEPA vacuumed clean. The plasticizing on the lift shall be periodically inspected during use and repaired as needed. Upon completion of the overall abatement work, this poly shall be packaged and disposed of as RACM. 4) A drop cloth shall be installed on the floor area I equipment directly below each active abatement location within the IR WA. The drop cloth shall be l 0' x l 0' in size. Upon completion of abatement at a given location, the poly drop cloth shall be wet wiped and/or HEPA vacuumed, packaged and disposed of as RACM. 5) Glovebag removal of the elevated TSI shall then be perforrned. Commercially available negative pressure glovebags or standard glovebags placed under negative pressure using a HEPA vacuum shall be utilized, in lieu of glovcbag removals within negative pressure tents. If standard glovebags are used, they shall be fitted with adequate interior support to prevent collapse wllile under negative pressure. The integrity of the glovebag will not be compromised by any additional support components and the makeup air inlet into the glovebag shall be fitted with a I-lEPA filter. Glovebag removal procedures shall be consistent with 12 NYCRR Part 56-8.4 and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1 101. 6) In the event of a loss ofglovebag integrity, procedures as detailed in 12 l'NCRR Part 56-8.2, (g) shall be followed. 7) For all individual projects involving greater than 25 linear feet, Daily "Full-Shift" Air Sampling will be perfonned during all glovebag removal operations. This will consist of one air sample being collected on the floor level within the IR W A directly below the active abatement work and one air sample being collected in the lift man-basket. Provided that airborne fiber concentrations for these abatement samples are reported as being below 0.01 fi bers per cubic centimeter, clearance air sampling as described in Subpart 56-9.2, (d) will not be performed. If air sample results indicate airborne fiber concentration at or Cornell University Ithaca Campus Attachment B of Variance Petition 2020 Campus Wide Variance Petition 200068 DELTA ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, & LAND SURVEYORS, DPC Page 9 of 10 I • II I I • • above 0.01 fibers per cubic centimeter, the JRWA and man-basket will be re-cleaned and clearance air sampling will be perfonned following a two hour waiting period. 8) For all individual projects involving greater than 25 linear feet, a full time independent project monitor shall be on-site to observe the abatement contractor's work practices, to ensure that no visible emissions are generated during the removal activities, and to verifY compliance with the conditions of the Variance, if approved. Item 7) Clean-up of "Emergency Minor" Incidental Disturbance Incidents - Due to space constraints, building occupancy and compliance with building egress paths, Cornell University is requesting a Multi-Site Facility Wide Variance to address the following relief from 12 NYCRR Patt 56 "Subpart 11.2- Emergency Project": 1) Air sampling and analysis shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of Subpart 56-4. 3) The clean-up project shall comply with the requirements of 12 NYCRR Part 56 Sections 56-3.1, 56-3.2 and 56-3.3. 4) Prior to the commencement of the clean-up project, the asbestos abatement contractor shall comply with the emergency asbestos project notification requirements set forth in 12 NYCRR Part 56 Sections 56-3.5 and 56-3.6. 5) If permission to proceed as an emergency asbestos project is granted under the conditions of the variance, as per Sections 56-3.5 and 56-11.2, all work done on the project shall be perfonned in a manner consistent with applicable provisions of 12 NYCRR Part 56 Subpa1t 11.2 with the following exceptions: a. For those locations where space constraints are present or building access I egress paths must be maintained, an airlock system would be utilized in lieu of a small project decontamination system enclosure. The airlock would be attached to the minor-project incidental disturbance regulated work area and would remain in-place unti I receipt of acceptable tlnal clearance air samples. 1 b. No removal of undisturbed ACM, P ACM or asbestos material shall be performed during the emergency asbestos project. If the ACM that is the source of the disturbance is still present and is in a damaged condition (beyond repair), the damaged material shall be removed as a part of the clean-up. 6) All other provisions I conditions of 12 NYCRR Part 56-I 1.2 would be followed. The health and safety of the students, faculty and staff as well as that of the contractors working on their campus is of the utmost concern to Cornell University. By having a Multi-Site Facility (Campus) Wide Variance in-place that addresses negative pressure air equipment exhaust for those Campus Buildings having inoperable fixed window systems and limited exterior openings, "minor" & "small" sized incidental disturbance clean-up episodes, coring/drilling through asbestos containing material, the removal of elevator and fire doors, the intact removal of transite lab tops I table tops! fume hoods I base cabinets, and elevated pipe insulation, Cornell University can address any necessary asbestos abatement within the affected buildings in a safe and timely manner while minimizing the impact to critical operations. Based on our experience with the previously granted Cornell Ithaca Campus-Wide Variances I 1-0024, 14-0035 and 17-0034 (and their associated Comell University Ithaca Campus Attachment B of Variance Petition 2020 Campus Wide Variance Petition DELTA ENGINEERS, ARCHITECTS, & LAND SURVEYORS, DPC '2d0 066! Page 10 of 10 AN ISO 9001:2015 CERTIFIED COMPANY Amendment Letters), we feel that the proposed means and methods for addressing the above items would in no way compromise the security or safety of the general public, the University's student body, faculty, staff, or any workers involved with a given project. As per the standard conditions for a Multi-Site Facility Wide Variance, we are requesting that, if approved, the variance tennination date be the maximum two years from its date of issuance.
