Dear Mr. Houseknecht:
Watts Architecture & Engineering (Watts) was retained by Cornell University Facilities Management to perform
testing for asbestos-containing materials (ACM) at Balch Hall located at 600 Thurston Avenue on the Cornell
University campus in Ithaca, NY. The purpose of this survey was to determine if materials associated with the
office space renovations on the second floor (facilities space 2332) and the third floor (office space 3061) are
asbestos-containing prior to the renovation project.
This letter report contains the results of Watts’ survey and the results of analytical testing of bulk samples
collected by Watts. The field work was conducted on July 16, 2018 and included the following:
• A visual site inspection to identify suspect ACM.
• Collection and laboratory analysis for asbestos content of samples from identified suspect materials.
• Documentation of sample locations on sample location drawings and a chain-of-custody form; and
• Photographs.
ASBESTOSASBESTOSASBESTOSASBESTOS----CONTAINING MATERIALSCONTAINING MATERIALSCONTAINING MATERIALSCONTAINING MATERIALS
The inspection included the collection of twenty-six (26) bulk samples identified as suspect asbestos-containing
material (ACM). ACM is defined as any material containing more than one percent (1%) of asbestos.
Based on laboratory analysis and visual observations, the followingthe followingthe followingthe following materialmaterialmaterialmaterialssss hahahahaveveveve been identified asbeen identified asbeen identified asbeen identified as ACMACMACMACM::::

Rooms 2332A and 2332B. The asbestos-containing floor tile and associated mastic is concealed
beneath 2 layers of carpeting and continues underneath the drywall partition walls. At this point in
time, it is not clear what the exact scope of work will be nor how much of this floor tile and mastic will
be impacted by the project. The non-friable floor tile and mastic was observed to be in good
condition.

Bulk samples were delivered with the chain-of-custody form to EMSL Analytical, Inc. (EMSL) in Depew, NY.
EMSL is a New York State accredited laboratory that is a participant in the Environmental Laboratory Approval
Program (ELAP) and National Voluntary Laboratory Approval Program (NVLAP). Friable materials were
analyzed using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) using Method 198.1. Non-friable organically bound (NOB)
materials underwent gravimetric reduction prior to being analyzed by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM)
Method 198.6. In addition, if NOB samples were negative by PLM, they were further analyzed by
Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) Method 198.4.

proposed project limits.

Photo 2: View of the carpet mastic in Office Space 3061 in the Tatkon Center on the 3rd floor of Balch Hall. The carpet
was adhered directly to the concrete floor substrate. No other flooring materials were observed beneath the
carpet at the time of Watts’ site visit.
Photo 3: View of Hallway 2332 (left) and Room 2332B (right) on the 2nd floor of Balch Hall. The 9” x 9” bronze mottled
floor tile (red circle) and associated black mastic are asbestos-containing and were observed to be underneath
two (2) layers of carpeting during Watts’ site visit.

Photo 4: View of Hallway 2332 on the 2nd floor of Balch Hall. The 9” x 9” bronze mottled floor tile was observed to be
undereath the carpeting. Discussions with a Cornell representative indicated that the “proposed” scope of work
is to remove the drywall partition walls that separates Hallway 2332 and Rooms 2332A/B and create smaller,
individual work spaces. At this point in time, it is undetermined how much of the floor tile and associated
mastic will be impacted by this work.

-In New York State, TEM is currently the only method that can be used to determine if NOB materials can be considered or treated as non-asbestos containing.
All samples examined for the presence of vermiculite when analyzed via NYS 198.1.
-NYS Guidelines for Vermiculite containing samples are available at http://www.wadsworth.org/labcert/elapcert/forms/VermiculiteInterimGuidance_Rev070913.pdf
