4 Asbestos Assessment September 10, 2013 Campbellford / Seymour Community Centre, 313 County Road 38, Campbellford, Ontario Municipality Trent Hills Pinchin File INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE Pinchin Environmental Ltd. (Pinchin) was retained by the Municipality of Trent Hills (Client) to conduct an asbestos-containing building materials assessment of Campbellford / Seymour Community Centre located at 313 County Road 38 in Campbellford, Ontario. This assessment was performed for the purposes of long term management of the asbestos, and not for construction or renovation purposes. Additional intrusive testing may be required prior to using this information for construction or renovation. This report was prepared to fulfil the Owner's requirements under Ontario Ministry of Labour (MOL) Regulation 278/05 (O.Reg 278/05). The assessment was performed by Bryan Guindon of Pinchin on August 20, The surveyor was not accompanied during the assessment. 1.1 Facility Description The facility was constructed in The following provides a basic description of the building systems. System Description Structure Exterior Cladding HVAC Roof Flooring Interior Walls Ceilings Wood, concrete Masonry block, pre-cast concrete Rooftop AC, radiant heaters in arena Built-up rubber roofing on arena, flat built-up roofing on Auditorium and Chiller Room Vinyl tile, rubber, carpet, concrete Drywall, concrete block, wood Drywall, acoustic ceiling tiles 1.2 Scope of Assessment The assessed area consisted of all parts of the building. The objective of the assessment was to establish the location, condition and type of friable and a non-friable asbestos-containing building materials (ACM). The assessment included a search for ACM incorporated in the structure and its finishes. Owner or occupant processes, articles within the building(s) such as stored items, furniture, etc., subsurface materials or equipment (vessels, drums, underground storage tanks, pipes, etc.), possible contaminants in the soil and groundwater on the site, and sampling of materials that 2013 Pinchin Environmental Ltd.

5 Asbestos Assessment September 10, 2013 Campbellford / Seymour Community Centre, 313 County Road 38, Campbellford, Ontario Municipality Trent Hills Pinchin File could result in a hazard to the surveyor or damage to the building were not included in the assessment. 2.0 ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY AND CRITERIA 2.1 Methodology The surveyor entered each room, corridor, service area, etc. where access was possible within the extent of the assessed area and inspected for the presence of ACM. Relevant information was recorded where ACM were observed, including approximate quantities, locations, condition, sample information and sample locations. Quantities reported are an approximate visual estimate. The investigation was limited to non-intrusive testing. Concealed locations such as spaces above solid ceilings, and within shafts and pipe chases were accessed via existing access panels only. Walls, solid ceilings, flooring, structural items, interior finishes or exterior building finishes were not removed to determine the presence of concealed materials. The surveyor inspected for the presence of friable and non-friable ACM. Typical examples of friable ACM include sprayed fireproofing, acoustic/texture finish, and mechanical insulation. Typical examples of non-friable ACM include asbestos cement sheets or pipes, vinyl floor tiles, vinyl sheet flooring, drywall compound and asbestos textile products. Typical examples of nonfriable ACM, which have the potential to become friable during construction, include plaster and acoustic ceiling tiles. Refer to Appendix I for a definition of friability. 2.2 Asbestos Sampling Exclusions A number of materials which might contain asbestos were not sampled during our assessment for various reasons. Reasons for not sampling these materials include; Sampling the material may be hazardous to the surveyor (e.g. electrical hazard); Sampling the materials may cause consequential damage to the property (e.g. sampling roofing may cause leaks); The material is inaccessible without major demolition (e.g. inside boilers etc.) or; The material is present in such an inconsistent fashion that without complete removal of finishes, the extent of ACM cannot be determined (e.g. floor levelling compound). If present, these materials must be presumed to be asbestos-containing and are best sampled immediately prior to commencing renovation (see list of presumed ACM in Findings Section) Pinchin Environmental Ltd.

6 Asbestos Assessment September 10, 2013 Campbellford / Seymour Community Centre, 313 County Road 38, Campbellford, Ontario Municipality Trent Hills Pinchin File Asbestos Sampling Strategy and Frequency Asbestos bulk samples were collected at a rate that was in compliance with the requirements of O.Reg. 278/05. The Regulation identifies the minimum number of samples to be collected and analyzed (1, 3, 5, or 7 depending on quantity, application and friability) from each homogeneous material, in order for the material to be considered non-asbestos. This frequency is indicated in Table 1 of the Regulation (see Appendix I). A homogeneous material is defined in Regulation 278/05 as one that is uniform in colour and texture. The surveyor used information obtained on site by visual examination and available information on the phases of the construction to determine the extent of each homogeneous area and the number of samples required. The use of asbestos in drywall joint compound was banned in Canada under the Federal Hazardous Products Act of 1980 but it could possibly contain asbestos as late as 1986 (due to stored material and non-compliance with the ban). Most buildings undergo constant renovation, including the removal and replacement of drywall partitions. Ontario was the first Canadian Province to ban the use of friable asbestos (March 1986, O.Reg. 654/85). Of the many non-friable materials, only drywall joint compound has been banned in Canada. Therefore in theory, all other non-friable materials and surfaces in which asbestos could have been used should be sampled for total certainty that it is non-asbestos, even to the present day. In practice however, asbestos ceased being used in most materials by manufacturers as a result of asbestos concerns. Pinchin is aware of many of the dates that certain materials ceased being manufactured with asbestos. Based on this knowledge, we suggest that sampling of certain materials is not required after specific dates and our sampling strategy was based on this knowledge. In addition, to be conservative we allow several years past these dates in our strategy. This allows additional time so that stored ACM products would have worked through the supply chain, and allows for some uncertainty in the exact start/finish date of construction and associated usage of ACM. We believe this is a prudent and responsible limitation and that the sampling strategy is appropriate. 2.4 Basis of Evaluation and Recommendation The condition and the potential for disturbance of any ACM observed were evaluated. The evaluation criteria were based on the conclusions of published studies, particularly the Royal Commission on Matters of Health and Safety Arising from the Use of Asbestos in Ontario, existing Ontario regulation, and our experience involving buildings that contain ACM. An ACM was considered damaged, if it is sprayed material that is delaminating, mechanical insulation with damaged/missing insulation or jacketing, or non-friable materials that have been pulverized or damaged so that they have become friable Pinchin Environmental Ltd.

7 Asbestos Assessment September 10, 2013 Campbellford / Seymour Community Centre, 313 County Road 38, Campbellford, Ontario Municipality Trent Hills Pinchin File The priority for remedial action is based not only on the evaluation of condition but is also based on several other factors which include: Accessibility or potential for direct contact and disturbance. Practicality of repair (for example, will damage to the ACM continue even if it is repaired). Visibility of the material. Efficiency of the work (for example, if damaged ACM is being removed in an area, it may be most practical to remove all ACM in the area even if it is in good condition). Recommendations also include those that are mandatory regulated requirements, such as some provincial requirements for institution of an Asbestos Management Program, training, record keeping etc. 2.5 Analytical Method Bulk samples collected for asbestos identification were analyzed at the Pinchin Laboratory in Mississauga. Preliminary identification of asbestos fibres was made using polarized light microscopy, with confirmation of the presence and type of asbestos by dispersion staining optical microscopy. The analysis was performed in accordance with Test Method EPA/600/R-93/116: Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials, July Pinchin is certified under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) to perform asbestos analysis of bulk samples. The asbestos analysis was completed using a stop positive approach. Only one result of greater than 0.5% asbestos content is required to determine that a material is asbestos-containing, but all samples must be analyzed to conclusively determine that a material is non-asbestos (O. Reg. 278/05). The laboratory stopped analyzing samples from a homogeneous material once greater than 0.5% asbestos was detected in any of the samples of that material. All samples of a homogeneous material were analyzed if no asbestos was detected. Where building materials are described in this report as non-asbestos, or described as containing no asbestos, this is subject to the limitations of the analytical method used, and should be understood to mean no asbestos was detected. Analytical results are presented in Appendix II. 2.6 Photographs Photographs are presented in Appendix III. 2.7 Drawings Included on the drawings in Appendix IV are locations that samples were collected Pinchin Environmental Ltd.

15 APPENDIX I FRIABILITY AND REGULATIONS

16 Asbestos Assessment Friability and Regulations Appendix I 1.0 FRIABILITY As per regulation 278/05, friable material means material that, (a) when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized or powdered by hand pressure, or (b) is crumbled, pulverized or powdered. Asbestoscontaining material (ACM) that is friable has a much greater potential than non-friable ACM to release airborne asbestos fibres when disturbed. The most common friable ACM used in the past are surfacing materials (usually sprayed fireproofing, texture, decorative or acoustic sprayed finishes) and thermal insulations on mechanical systems. Asbestos-containing non-friable materials include vinyl floor tiles, drywall joint compound, gasket materials, asbestos cement pipe or board, asbestos textiles, etc. Note that though a product may be considered non-friable when new, if the product releases fine dust due to deterioration or during removal, the free dust is considered friable. Potentially friable materials (or sometimes called miscellaneous friable materials) include materials such as ceiling tiles and plaster. These materials are non-friable in place, but can generate dust upon removal. 2.0 TABLE 1 REGULATION 278/05 ASBESTOS SAMPLING FREQUENCY Type of Material Surfacing material, including without limitation material that is applied to surfaces by spraying, by troweling or otherwise, such as acoustical plaster on ceilings, fireproofing materials on structural members and plaster Size of Area of Homogeneous Material Less than 90 square metres 90 or more square metres, but less than 450 square metres 450 or more square metres Minimum Number of Samples Thermal insulation, except as described below Any size 3 Thermal insulation patch Less than 2 linear metres or 0.5 square metres Other material Any size REGULATIONS - ONTARIO Each province has issued regulations or guidelines for control of work around asbestos in buildings and for the packaging and disposal of asbestos waste. The applicable regulations governing asbestos in Ontario are as follows: Pinchin Environmental Ltd. Appendix I - Page 1

17 Asbestos Assessment Friability and Regulations Appendix I The disturbance of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) on construction projects is controlled by Ontario Ministry of Labour Regulation 278/05 made under the Occupational Health and Safety Act (Designated Substance - Asbestos on Construction Projects and in Buildings and Repair Operations). The Regulation classifies all disturbances as Type 1, Type 2, or Type 3, each of which has defined work practices. All ACM are subject to special handling and disposal, and must be removed before partial or full demolition. The Ministry of Labour must be notified prior to any project involving removal of more than a minor amount of friable ACM (Type 3 or Glove Bag abatement). Waste disposal is controlled by Ministry of the Environment Regulation, R.R.O Reg. 347 as amended by 461/ Pinchin Environmental Ltd. Appendix I - Page 2

18 APPENDIX II RESULTS OF BULK SAMPLE ANALYSIS FOR ASBESTOS

19 Pinchin Environmental Asbestos Laboratory Certificate of Analysis Project Name: Campbellford / Seymour Agricultural Community Centre 313 County Road 38, Campbellford, Ontario Project No.: Prepared For: B. Guindon / M. Wilson Lab Reference No.: b Analyst(s): J. Raisch-Berkoff / N. Barinque Date Received: August 21, 2013 # Samples submitted: 33 Date Analyzed: August 28, 2013 # Phases analyzed: 45 Method of Analysis: EPA 600/R-93/116 - Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials dated July, 1993 Bulk samples are checked visually and scanned under a stereomicroscope. Slides are prepared and observed under a Polarized Light Microscope (PLM) at magnifications of 40X, 100X or 400X as appropriate. Asbestos fibres are identified by a combination of morphology, colour, refractive index, extinction, sign of elongation, birefringence and dispersion staining colours. A visual estimate is made of the percentage of asbestos present. A reported concentration of less than (<) the regulatory threshold (see chart below) indicates the presence of confirmed asbestos in trace quantities, limited to only a few fibres or fibre bundles in an entire sample. This method complies with all provincial regulatory requirements (NIOSH 9002, I.R.S.S.T ). Multiple phases within a sample are analyzed and reported separately. Provincial Jurisdiction Ontario, British Columbia Quebec Alberta, NWT, Yukon, Nunavut Regulatory Threshold Provincial Jurisdiction Regulatory Threshold 0.5% Manitoba 0.1% friable 1% non-friable 0.1% Saskatchewan 0.1% friable 1% non-friable 1% Atlantic Provinces 1% All bulk samples submitted to this laboratory for asbestos analysis are retained for a minimum of three months. Samples may be retrieved, upon request, for re-examination at any time during that period. Pinchin Environmental Ltd. is accredited by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP Lab Code ) for the 'EPA-600/M : Interim Method for the Determination of Asbestos in Bulk Insulation Samples' and meets all requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2005. This report relates only to the items tested. NOTE: This test report may not be reproduced, except in full, without the written approval of the laboratory. The client may not use this report to claim product endorsement by NVLAP or any agency of the U.S. Government. This report is valid only when signed in blue ink by the analyst. Vinyl asbestos floor tiles contain very fine fibres of asbestos and may be missed by some laboratories using the PLM method. Internal verification studies performed by Pinchin indicate that the chance of missing asbestos in floor tiles is no higher than about 2%. The vinyl tile study and laboratory documentation on measurement uncertainty is available upon request. The analysis of dust samples by PLM cannot be used as an indicator of past or present airborne asbestos fibre levels.
