Brooklyn Bridge

Inspection of the Arch area for potential asbestos containing materials, potential lead-based paint, and other hazardous materials was completed by EnviroMed.  A sampling plan was proposed by EnviroMed to NYCDOT for the following concerns:  sample ceiling plaster (two layers of plaster), sample pipe insulation, inspect and sample the office partitions and doors for asbestos, test the paint for lead, sample the dust via bulk samples and analyze for asbestos and lead, perform TCLP sampling and analysis for building debris prior to disposal, and characterize the liquid wastes in storage.  Personal sampling during the work was recommended for lead in air, asbestos in air and total particulate.
