1.2 OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the hazardous material survey were to:
— identify hazardous materials;
— provide a qualitative risk assessment of the hazardous materials identified;
— provide recommendations on the control measure strategies in the event of any refurbishment or demolition works;
and
— prepare a hazardous materials register and hazardous materials management plan to ensure compliance with state
legislation, Commonwealth codes of practice and Australian Standards as outlined in Section 1.1 above.
1.3 SCOPE OF WORK
The investigation will be undertaken to identify and document all visible and accessible hazardous materials (if
identified) as far as reasonably practicable.
The scope of works covers the following:
1.3.1 TASK 1 – PRE- SITE INSPECTION PREPARATION
— Provide a Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) for the activities on site, ensuring hazards identified within are
safely inspected for asbestos and documented within a detailed hazardous material(s) register.
1.3.2 TASK 2 – SITE INSPECTION AND SAMPLE COLLECTION
— Site investigations, includes identification of hazardous materials, location, type, condition, extent and qualitative
risk assessment;
— Sampling of representative materials suspected of containing asbestos; and
— Sampling of representative paint systems for the purpose of confirming lead content.
1.3.3 TASK 3 – ANALYSIS OF SUSPECT MATERIALS
Suspected ACM and lead containing paint collected during the survey were sent to NATA accredited laboratories for
analysis.

1.3.4 TASK 4 – REPORTING & HAZARDOUS MATERIALS REGISTER
All data generated from the survey was used to update the hazardous materials register/spread sheet, which identifies and
defines the condition of the materials, lists any factual findings and provides consideration to their removal priority.

2 METHODOLOGY
2.1 GENERAL
The identification of hazardous materials involves a combination of visual inspection of the accessible areas of the
building/structure and the collection of representative samples of the suspect materials for the purpose of analytical
confirmation. Where identical suspect materials are detected at different locations, visual confirmation only may have
been made rather than additional sample collection.
2.2 IDENTIFICATION OF MATERIAL
2.2.1 ASBESTOS CONTAINING MATERIAL
Representative samples of materials suspected of containing asbestos were collected and analysed at our in-house NATA
accredited laboratory. The identification of asbestos fibres is based on using polarised light microscopy supplemented
with dispersion staining techniques. This is detailed in Australian Standard 4964-2004 ‘Method for the qualitative
identification of asbestos in bulk samples’. Asbestos samples were only collected for analysis where the safety of
personnel would not be compromised. Sampling was conducted in accordance with the WSP’s in house survey guide and
the United Kingdom Health & Safety Executive publication, ‘Methods for the Determination of Hazardous Substances
100, surveying, sampling and assessment of asbestos-containing materials’.
2.2.2 LEAD-BASED PAINT SYSTEMS
Representative samples of paint were collected and analysed at Envirolab Services NATA Accredited Laboratory. Lead
content is reported in percentage weight by weight and compared with AS4361.2-2017, Guide to Lead Paint
Management, Part 2: Residential and Commercial Buildings lead containing paint system level of 0.1 per cent (w/w) of
the dried film.
2.2.3 SYNTHETIC MINERAL FIBRES (SMF) MATERIALS
The survey for SMF was undertaken in accordance with the guidelines documented in the Code of Practice for the Safe
Use of Synthetic Mineral Fibres [NOHSC: 2006 (1990)]. This includes documenting any materials visually assessed on
site as being consistent with SMF.
Our experienced surveyor visually identified and recorded the presence of synthetic mineral fibre products onsite.
The roof space and all levels containing ceiling voids must be visually inspected to verify the presence of SMF.
Additionally, special detail must also be paid to pipework and ducting insulations types.
2.2.4 POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS (PCBS)
Where access was available and power was isolated representative examples of each major type of fluorescent light
fittings were examined to determine which lights were fitted with PCB containing ballast capacitors. The details of the
brand, model of each capacitor and capacity were recorded and checked against with the ANZECC database of known
PCB capacitors and PCB free capacitors.
The Australian and New Zealand Environment Conservation Council ‘Polychlorinated Biphenyls Management Plan,
November 1996’ outlines the National Strategy for the management of PCBs.

The document defines PCB materials and wastes as follows:
Table 2.1 PCB concentration classification
PCB concentration Waste classification
<2 mg/kg - PCB free.
2 mg/kg - <50 mg/kg - Non-Scheduled PCB material or waste.
>50 mg/kg - Scheduled PCB material or waste.
>100,000 mg/kg (10%) - Concentrated PCB material.
2.2.5 OZONE DEPLETING SUBSTANCES (ODS)
The main cause of ozone depletion and the ozone hole is man-made chemicals, especially man-made halocarbon
refrigerants, solvents, propellants, and foam-blowing agents which are commonly referred to as ozone-depleting
substances (ODS).
The identification of potentially ODS, such as industrial refrigerators and air conditioning units, were visually identified
during the current survey.
Where ODS have been previously identified at the site, they have been included in the updated HAZMAT register.

3 RESTRICTIONS / INACCESSIBLE
AREA
Every effort was made to access all areas of the buildings; however, some areas were restricted due to building damage,
excessive heights and electrical hazards. This included, but is not limited to the following areas:
— The roof-line to all buildings and structures over 3.0m in height;
— Inground and underground services (pits / pipes / etc);
— Inset pipe-works to the brick/concrete walls
— Under ceramic tiles to walls and floors
— All live electricity and mechanical plant/equipment
— All electrical boards and circuit breakers.
In general, a presumption should be made that hazardous materials are present within areas not able to be accessed during
the survey. Caution should be given during demolition works and works ceased if suspected hazardous materials are
encountered and an assessment undertaken by a suitably qualified hazardous materials expert.

5 RECOMMEDATION FOR REMOVAL
5.1 GENERAL SITE ESTABLISHMENT
� The asbestos containing materials should be removed prior to the commencement of demolition works.
The asbestos removal works are to be conducted in accordance with the SafeWork Australia document How to
Safely Remove Asbestos – Code of Practice.
� All asbestos removal, transport and disposal must be performed in accordance with ACT legislative requirements.
� Where asbestos cannot be removed prior to mechanical demolition (e.g. where structures are unsound, inhibiting
access to asbestos removal personnel), dust suppression must be employed during demolition. All building waste
suspected of containing asbestos must be removed as asbestos waste and placed in appropriately lined bins/trucks
for disposal to an approved waste facility.
� It is recommended that the removal works to be undertaken by a licenced asbestos removal contractor. The removal
to be undertaken in accordance with the code of practice noted above and by a licenced asbestos removal contractor.
� Environmental management and WHS procedures should be put in place for the asbestos removal during demolition
works to protect the workers, surrounding residents and environment.
� It is recommended that a licenced asbestos assessor is engaged to carry out asbestos fibre air monitoring during the
removal of the asbestos materials if asbestos removal works are to take place during other demolition works. The
monitoring is to be conducted in accordance with the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission
Guidance Note on the Membrane Filter Method for the Estimating Airborne Asbestos Fibre, 2nd Edition [NOHSC
3003(2005)], April 2005, by a NATA accredited laboratory such as WSP Australia.
� At all times “H Class” asbestos vacuums and negative air units fitted with HEPA filters are to be used during
asbestos removal and remediation. These are to be regularly tested and maintained to operate at 99.995% efficiency,
in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
� Filters for “H Class” vacuums should conform to the requirements for AS 4260-1997 High efficiency particulate are
(HEPA) filters – Classification, construction and performance or its equivalent.
� Disposal of asbestos containing material must be undertaken in accordance the SafeWork Australia document How
to Safely Remove Asbestos – Code of Practice 2014 and the ACT EPA Guidelines at a land fill site licenced to
accept asbestos waste.
5.2 ENCLOSURE SET-UP
� Potential entry points to the asbestos work area should be signposted and barrier taped in accordance with AS1319-
1994 Safety Signs for the Occupational Environment.
� A minimum 3 stage decontamination unit with clean change-shower-dirty shower-dirty change areas must also be
installed and used under negative air pressure. Water from the decontamination unit should be captured, filtered,
and the filters are to be disposed of as asbestos waste.
� Construction of the main negative air enclosures may require the inclusion of the outer brick walls in order to
maintain negative air conditions in the interior of the building. To obtain negative air conditions in the roof space,
the contractor will be required to place plastic sheeting (minimum of 200µm thickness) over the roof tiles or roof
sheets, eaves and back to the brick outer walls. All windows and penetrations to the dwelling such as vents will be
sealed with 200µm plastic sheeting.
Project No PS112993 J056 - Leonard Huxley Building Mills Road, Acton ACT 2601 Hazardous Materials Survey The Australian National University
WSP February 2019
Page A-10
� In order to complete the above it may be necessary to remove items such as awnings, solar panels, fences, trellises
or other fittings attached to the house, that may impact upon enclosure or scaffold set-up.
� Once the enclosure set-up is complete an asbestos assessor is conduct an enclosure integrity test to all the seals of
the enclosure and to measure the flow of the negative pressure units to ensure that it can maintain negative pressure.
Work can only commence once the asbestos assessor has deemed the enclosure to be “satisfactory” to do so. A
manometer is to be attached to the enclosure to ensure that negative air pressure within is above 12 kPa.
5.3 NON-FRIABLE ACM FROM THE BUILDING
� Remove non-friable ACM material with minimal breakage.
� Maintain work in progress air monitoring (Control and Perimeter Locations).
� Refer to Worksafe ACT How to Safely Remove Asbestos Code of Practice 2014.
� Please Note that If present, all nails, screws and fasteners associated with ACM must be removed and disposed of as
asbestos contaminated waste. All timber or metal battens must be decontaminated with the use of a HEPA vacuum
cleaner.
� Place fragments of AC Sheeting material in 200µm polythene bags which are no longer than 1200mm and no wider
than 900mm.
� Place sheets of AC Sheeting directly into a bin in close proximity to works, lined with 200 µm plastic, and kept
damp to minimise the generation of airborne asbestos. Ensure that the bin is labelled and if to remain on site for any
period of time, kept secure at all times.
� In relation to the asbestos containing joint mastic and electrical backing board, polythene sheeting drop sheets
should be placed under the material. The material removed with minimal breakage and placed within 200 µm thick
polythene bags or wrapped with 200 µm thick polythene sheeting. Any fixtures or fittings associated with the
material such as screws, nails or brackets should be removed asbestos waste or if possible decontaminated. The
area should be clear of any visible dust following the removal.
� Following the satisfactory clearance inspection and if deemed necessary by the licenced asbestos assessor, tinted
PVA solution should be sprayed on timber or metal battens and polythene drop sheets prior to its removal for the
work area and disposal.
� Following the completion of the above, an ‘emu or sparrow pick’ of the ground surface in proximity to removal
works (and along any waste/work route) is to be undertaken to remove any fragments of AC sheeting. All fragments
are to be placed in 200 µm thick polythene bags which are no longer than 1200 mm and no wider than 900 mm
wide. Bags are to be sealed and double bagged to reduce the risk of the bags splitting.
� Once the pick is complete, a clearance is to be conducted by the licenced asbestos assessor.
5.4 FRIABLE ACM FROM THE INTERIOR OF THE BUILDING
5.4.1 REMOVAL OF GASKET OR ROPE SEALS
The asbestos in gaskets and rope from plant and equipment will be friable. An enclosure with negative air extraction units
must be used for this type of asbestos removal work. When removing gaskets and rope seals: ensure the plant or
equipment is shut down and isolated
� dismantle the equipment carefully. Protect any other components with plastic sheeting;
� ensure the plant and equipment has been made safe (pipework emptied, electrical supply isolated and equipment
shutdown, etc.);
� unbolt or unscrew the flange or dismantle the equipment;
Project No PS112993 J056 - Leonard Huxley Building Mills Road, Acton ACT 2601 Hazardous Materials Survey The Australian National University
WSP February 2019
Page A-11
� once accessible, dampen the asbestos with a fine water mist or similar. Continue dampening the asbestos as more of
it is exposed/accessible;
� ease the gasket or rope seal away with the scraper and place into the waste container positioned directly
beside/beneath it. Keep the area damp and scrape away any residue; and
� consider using an industrial vacuum cleaner fitted with a HEPA filter while scraping.
5.4.2 REMOVAL OF ASBESTOS-BACKED VINYL
As asbestos millboard is typically 100 per cent asbestos and very friable. An enclosure with negative air extraction units
must be used for this type of asbestos removal work.
� The asbestos millboard should be wetted down as the vinyl is peeled from the floor, preferably with the millboard
attached.
� The vinyl can be cut into strips prior to its removal to facilitate bagging, or it can be rolled into one roll and
wrapped securely with plastic, making sure it is totally sealed.
� If the vinyl sheeting cannot be removed without leaving some of the asbestos millboard on the floor surface, the
remaining asbestos millboard should be wetted down and, when thoroughly soaked, scraped off the floor surface.
� Sufficient water should be used to dampen the asbestos millboard, but not so much that run-off or pools of
contaminated water will occur.
� Alternative removal methods should only be used if they do not result in excessive fibre release from the asbestos
millboard and do not result in any additional hazard.
5.5 SYNTHETIC MINERAL FIBRES (SMF)
Synthetic Mineral Fibres may be classified as hazardous depending on their age and manufacturing origin. It is therefore
recommended that some precautionary measures be implemented to ensure adequate protection of workers from potential
exposure.
Where SMF materials are to be handled or disturbed, the precautionary measures as outlined in the National
Occupational Health and Safety Commission's National Code of Practice for the Safe use of Synthetic Mineral Fibre Products [NOHSC:2006(1990)] should be observed. The general requirements are as follows:
� Personal protective clothing (long sleeve, loose fitting), gloves and half face (Class P1 or P2) respirators should be
used, as well as eye protection and head covering in some circumstances.
� The work area should be isolated and signposted.
� Waste material should be bagged or sealed in solid containers prior to transport and disposal.
5.6 LEAD
� It is recommended that the easily detachable items containing lead paint do not require to go through the lead paint
removal procedures (i.e. wet sanding, chemical stripping or hand scrapping). However, when these items are
removed it is recommended that 200 micron thick drop sheets are to be placed on all ground surfaces in proximity to
the works and wrapped in 200 micron thick plastic sheeting to prevent contamination to the ground surfaces
surrounding the building.
� Items that cannot be easily removed which contain lead paint will be demolished under controlled conditions to
reduce limit further ground contamination to the site and the waste will be included with demolition waste. Controls
will consist of but not limited too;
Project No PS112993 J056 - Leonard Huxley Building Mills Road, Acton ACT 2601 Hazardous Materials Survey The Australian National University
WSP February 2019
Page A-12
� Spraying the lead in paint surface with a binding agent to limit potential paint flakes or dust depositing on the ground
surface;
� Bunding around the demolition area to contain water run-off;
� Water dust suppression during the demolition and loading phase; and
� A minimum 10 metre exclusion zone around the demolition and loading out of the demolition waste.
As a precautionary and control measure, static lead in air monitoring should be undertaken during the remediation works
in accordance with Australian Standard AS 3640-2004 Workplace atmospheres - Method for sampling and gravimetric
determination of inhalable dust by an experienced environmental scientist.
� Clearance certification should be undertaken at the completion of the removal work. The clearance inspection should
to be carried out by an occupational hygienist or licensed asbestos assessor specialised in the management of
hazardous materials.
� Environmental management and OH&S procedures should be put in place for the remediation works to protect the
workers and the environment.
5.7 POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS (PCBS)
If the presence of PCB’s can be confirmed with the light fittings the following should be followed for the safe removal;
� A detailed and site-specific work scope and technical specification will be developed prior to the removal of
‘hazardous materials’ from the residence;
� In accordance with the NSW WHS Regulations 2012 and NSW WHS Act 2012, removal of hazardous materials
must be completed by a contractor licensed to remove hazardous materials (i.e. asbestos, lead, PCBs) and must be
completed under a site-specific permit. This permit can only be applied for by a licensed and qualified hazardous
materials removal contractor; and
� Removal of PCB containing materials is recommended to be removed by a qualified contractor with experience in
hazardous waste and PCB removal. The removal contractor must follow legislative requirements for the PCB
containing materials removal.
5.8 OZONE DEPLETING SUBSTANCES (ODS)
� Remove in accordance with the AIRAH Refrigerant Handling Code of Practice 2007.
� Unit should be de-gassed by a licensed HVAC technician before disposal. As per the ozone protection and synthetic greenhouse gas management regulations 1996 (amended 2016).

Result Definitions
Australian Drinking Water Guidelines recommend that Thermotolerant Coliform, Faecal Enterococci, & E.Coli levels are less than1cfu/100mL. The recommended maximums are taken from "Australian Drinking Water Guidelines", published by NHMRC & ARMC2011.
Surrogates are known additions to each sample, blank, matrix spike and LCS in a batch, of compounds whichare similar to the analyte of interest, however are not expected to be found in real samples.
Surrogate Spike
This comprises either a standard reference material or a control matrix (such as a blank sand or water) fortifiedwith analytes representative of the analyte class. It is simply a check sample.
LCS (LaboratoryControl Sample)
A portion of the sample is spiked with a known concentration of target analyte. The purpose of the matrix spikeis to monitor the performance of the analytical method used and to determine whether matrix interferencesexist.
Matrix Spike
This is the complete duplicate analysis of a sample from the process batch. If possible, the sample selectedshould be one where the analyte concentration is easily measurable.
Duplicate
This is the component of the analytical signal which is not derived from the sample but from reagents,glassware etc, can be determined by processing solvents and reagents in exactly the same manner as forsamples.

Measurement Uncertainty estimates are available for most tests upon request.
Where sampling dates are not provided, Envirolab are not in a position to comment on the validity of the analysis whererecommended technical holding times may have been breached.
When samples are received where certain analytes are outside of recommended technical holding times (THTs), the analysis hasproceeded. Where analytes are on the verge of breaching THTs, every effort will be made to analyse within the THT or as soon aspracticable.
In circumstances where no duplicate and/or sample spike has been reported at 1 in 10 and/or 1 in 20 samples respectively, thesample volume submitted was insufficient in order to satisfy laboratory QA/QC protocols.
Matrix Spikes, LCS and Surrogate recoveries: Generally 70-130% for inorganics/metals; 60-140% for organics (+/-50% surrogates)and 10-140% for labile SVOCs (including labile surrogates), ultra trace organics and speciated phenols is acceptable.
Duplicates: >10xPQL - RPD acceptance criteria will vary depending on the analytes and the analytical techniques but is typically inthe range 20%-50% – see ELN-P05 QA/QC tables for details; <10xPQL - RPD are higher as the results approach PQL and theestimated measurement uncertainty will statistically increase.
For VOCs in water samples, three vials are required for duplicate or spike analysis.
Spikes for Physical and Aggregate Tests are not applicable.
Filters, swabs, wipes, tubes and badges will not have duplicate data as the whole sample is generally extracted during sampleextraction.
Duplicate sample and matrix spike recoveries may not be reported on smaller jobs, however, were analysed at a frequency to meetor exceed NEPM requirements. All samples are tested in batches of 20. The duplicate sample RPD and matrix spike recoveries forthe batch were within the laboratory acceptance criteria.

The asbestos containing material risk score is a quantitative assessment determined by the sum of the scores based on the
Materials and Location Assessments; i.e. Risk score = Material Score + Location Score (out of as possible 24).
Should no asbestos be detected then the register will indicate a risk score of 0.

LIMITATIONS OF A HAZARDOUS
MATERIALS INSPECTION
SCOPE OF SERVICES
This hazardous materials inspection report (‘the report’) has been prepared in accordance with the scope of services set
out in the contract, or as otherwise agreed, between the Client and WSP Australia (‘scope of services’). In some
circumstances the scope of services may have been limited by a range of factors such as time, budget, access and/or site
disturbance constraints.
RELIANCE ON DATA
In preparing the report, WSP has relied upon data, surveys, analyses, designs, plans and other information provided by
the Client and other individuals and organisations, most of which are referred to in the report (‘the data’). Except as
otherwise stated in the report, WSP has not verified the accuracy or completeness of the data. To the extent that the
statements, opinions, facts, information, conclusions and/or recommendations in the report (‘conclusions’) are based in
whole or part on the data, those conclusions are contingent upon the accuracy and completeness of the data. WSP will
not be liable in relation to incorrect conclusions should any data, information or condition be incorrect or have been
concealed, withheld, misrepresented or otherwise not fully disclosed to WSP.
NO INSPECTION CAN BE GUARANTEED TO LOCATE ALL
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
In practice, it is generally impossible to locate all hazardous materials in the course of an inspection.
This is because of factors such as:
� The availability of building/plant construction plans. There is no instrument which can detect hazardous materials.
� Inaccessible and restricted areas during survey
The presence of hazardous materials must be determined visually, as there is no single, cost effective instrument
currently available for the purpose. Usually an inspector will take samples of suspect materials and have them analysed
in a laboratory. Thus, any restrictions on the amount of sampling will reduce confidence in the hazardous materials
inspection findings. The consequence of this is that hazardous materials which cannot be seen will not be found.

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ARE COMMONPLACE
From the early 1900s until the early 1970s, asbestos was widely used in industry. The use of asbestos cement sheets in
roof pipes and wall cladding was particularly widespread, as was the use of ‘limpet’ asbestos fibre insulation in steel
framed high-rise buildings. Asbestos was also used for applications such as insulation of pipes and high temperature
electricity cables, in plastics, in PVC floor tiles, for reinforcement in cements, putties and mastic and in gaskets and
friction materials.
Whilst major uses of hazardous materials were sometimes recorded on engineering drawings, there are few records of the
ad hoc use of hazardous materials and products. To give examples from the building industry, plumbers frequently used
asbestos fibre in caulking compounds and builders often used Asbestos Cement sheeting as packing under floorboards.
In short, asbestos could be almost anywhere in a building or plant constructed before the 1980s.
RELIANCE ON A HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INSPECTION
The client must not rely upon an inspection or report as indicating that a site or building is ‘hazardous materials free’.
All that the report can be relied upon to show is that no hazardous materials were found (or that only such hazardous
materials were found as was reported to have been found) in the course of the inspection. The findings of the report must
be considered together with the specific scope and limitations of the type of inspection undertaken.
REPORT FOR BENEFIT OF CLIENT
The report has been prepared for the benefit of the Client and no other party. WSP assumes no responsibility and will not
be liable to any other person or organisation for or in relation to any matter dealt with or conclusions expressed in the
report, or for any loss or damage suffered by any other person or organisation arising from matters dealt with or
conclusions expressed in the report (including without limitation matters arising from any negligent act or omission of
WSP or for any loss or damage suffered by any other party relying upon the matters dealt with or conclusions expressed
in the report). Other parties should not rely upon the report or the accuracy or completeness of any conclusions and
should make their own enquiries and obtain independent advice in relation to such matters.
For the purposes of this limitations statement, ‘conclusions’ include statements, opinions, facts, information, conclusions
and/or recommendations in the report.
