ABSTRACT
This report presents the results of laboratories participating in
the ninth, tenth, eleventh and second blind round(s) of the bulk sample
analysis quality assurance program sponsored by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency. Two hundred fifty-four, 320, 318 and 50
laboratories which analyze bulk samples for determination of asbestos
content by polarized light microscopy participated in these rounds,
respectively.
Laboratories received bulk samples of asbestos, asbestos substi-
tutes or other bulk insulation materials. Three aspects of analytical
results are considered: classification of a sample as either asbestos
(positive) or nonasbestos (negative); identification of the specific
type of asbestos present, and quantisation of the relative amount of
major constituents present. A performance rating was made for each
laboratory, based only on the ability to correctly classify samples.
Reductions of all correct (4/4 or 3/3) scores were made only for the
reporting of false positives and false negatives. Laboratories partic-
ipating in rounds 9, 10, 11 and the second blind round correctly class-
ified 92.1%, 97.2%, 94.9% and 97.9% of the samples, respectively, as an
asbestos or nonasbestos containing material as described in the Federal
Register, Vol. 47, No. 103, Thursday, May 27, 1982.
Continuation of the program is anticipated. Any commercial or
noncommercial laboratories with capability in polarized light micro-
scope analysis of bulk samples may participate. Results of commercial
laboratories are published in the interim listing of "Commercial Labo-
ratories with Polarized Light Microscope Capabilities for Bulk Asbestos
Identification."
This report is submitted in fulfillment of contract number
68-02-3767 by Research Triangle Institute under the sponsorship of the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This report covers a period from
January 1, 1984 to December 31, 1984 and work was completed as of June
30, 1985.

SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Asbestos-in-Schools
Program designated polarized light microscopy (PLM), supplemented when
necessary by x-ray powder diffraction, as the recommended method for
detecting asbestos in friable materials.l>2 in January 1980, a
quality assurance (QA) program was initiated for laboratories having
capability in PLM analysis of bulk samples. The goals of the program
were twofold: first, to assist laboratories in developing reliable PLM
analytical capability by providing an independent check on data quality
and by supplying characterized samples for use in internal quality con-
trol; and, second, to facilitate public access to competent analytical
laboratories. Commercial or noncommercial laboratories with PLM ana-
lytical capabilities are eligible to participate in the EPA-QA program.
Participation in this inter!aboratory testing program does not lead to
accreditation, certification, endorsement or other official approval
for bulk asbestos sample analysis.
Participating commercial laboratories and their performance rat-
ings are listed in a written report Commercial Laboratories with
Polarized Light Microscope Capabilities for Bulk Asbestos Identifica-
tion, Interim Listing Number XX, EPA Bulk Asbestos Round XX and made
available after each QA round to EPA regional asbestos coordinators,
state asbestos contacts, and the general public. Further information
on the QA program, participating laboratories, and/or procedures for
sampling and analysis of asbestos-containing bulk materials is avail-
able by contacting the Program Technical Information Service using the
toll-free number 1-800-334-8571, extension 6741.

Rounds 1 and 2 of the QA Program were conducted in 1980. Results
were reported in two EPA reports: published in August 1980, EPA-560/
13-80-23, EPA-560/5-81-001, and published in March 1981. Rounds 3 and
4 were conducted in June 1981 and January 1982, respectively, and
results were reported in an RTI report (Contract Number 68-02-3431) in
June 1982. The results of Rounds 5, 6, 7, 8, and Blind Round I were
reported in an RTI report (Contract Number 68-02-3431) in February
1985. This report describes the results of Rounds 9, 10, 11, and Blind
Round II.

SECTION 2
PROCEDURES AND METHODS
This section reviews the procedures and methods followed in con-
ducting the QA bulk sample and blind rounds. Section 2.1 discusses the
selection and distribution of the bulk samples, the reporting forms and
laboratory instructions, the bulk sample reference reports, the labora-
tory reports, and the calculation of the laboratory's performance
rating in Bulk Sample Rounds 9, 10, and 11. Section 2.2 discusses the
selection of laboratories and analysis of the laboratory results in
Blind Round II.
2.1 BULK SAMPLE ROUNDS
2.1.1 Bulk Sample Repository
Bulk sample materials are stored in a repository located at
Research Triangle Institute in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
The repository contains laboratory formulated asbestos and nonasbestos
materials, real-world materials supplied by asbestos removal contrac-
tors and manufacturers, and fibrous asbestos substitutes that are pur-
chased or provided by manufacturers. Industrial samples are taken from
the bulk materials in the repository and packaged in plastic bags or
plastic vials.
2.1.2 Selection of the Bulk Material Samples
When a bulk material is selected for distribution in a QA round,
it is analyzed in the RTI Optical Microscopy Laboratory for uniformity
and asbestos content. The results of this analysis are compared with
results of the screening analysis performed on the bulk material when
it was first received at the RTI repository. If the two analyses agree
in terms of asbestos content and consistency, a sample of the bulk
material is sent to the reference laboratory for characterization.
2.1.3 Reference Analysis of the Bulk Material Samples
Reference analysis of the bulk material samples are performed by
the Bureau of Mines, U.S. Department of the Interior, Avondale, Mary-
land. The bulk sample is analyzed for asbestos content using PLM and,
if the analyst deems it necessary, x-ray powder diffraction.
2-1
-------
The bulk sample is first examined with a low power (approximately
10-45X) stereo binocular microscope for gross characterization. From
two to eight slides are then prepared for PLM examination using materi-
al taken from different positions of each sample or each layer within a
sample. Examination is done at magnification ranging from approximate-
ly 40X to 400X with most characterization being done at low power.
The number of slides prepared and examined are determined by the
analyst's experience and his judgement of the component complexity and
homogeneity of each sample or layer. The area percent of asbestos is
visually estimated with the aid of modal percentage charts and this is
converted to an estimated weight percent based on the analyst's exper-
ience with similar materials. Other fibrous nonasbestos materials in
the bulk sample are estimated by weight percent in the same manner and
listed in the analysis report. When a bulk sample contains two or more
layers, each layer is weighted according to its thickness to calculate
the total estimated weight percentage of the components for the entire
bulk sample.
If the results of the reference analysis agree with the RTI analy-
sis for a given bulk material sample, it is then confirmed for distri-
bution in the QA round. Characteristics on which agreement between the
reference analysis and the RTI analysis must be reached include:
classification of the bulk sample as an asbestos containing or non-
asbestos containing material, agreement on the type of asbestos if
asbestos is present and general agreement on the composition of the
major components of the sample.
2.1.4 Distribution of the Bulk Material Samples to the Participating
Laboratories
Usually a set of four different bulk materials is sent to the par-
ticipating laboratories in a given bulk material round. Each bulk sam-
ple is individually packaged in a sample vial or plastic bag, placed in
another plastic bag, and then inserted into a padded envelope along
with reporting and coding forms, and analysis instructions. Labora-
tories are given 20 working days following sample receipt to analyze
the set of bulk material samples and to return their analytical results
to RTI.
2-2
-------
The reporting form, coding form, and instructions that are used by
the participating laboratory to process and record their analytical
results are included in Appendix A. The reporting form includes a data
entry space for the identification of asbestos fibers and nonasbestos
materials, analytical method(s) used, quantitative procedures used, and
quality control measures employed. The coding form summarizes the
information on the reporting form and is used by RTI to record a labor-
atory's analytical results.
2.1.5 Laboratory Performance Reports
Laboratory performance is based on the ability of a laboratory to
determine if a bulk material sample does or does not contain greater
than 1 percent asbestos. A performance rating is calculated based on
the number of classification errors made by the laboratory. A classi-
fication error can either be a false positive (nonasbestos) or false
negative (no asbestos reported in a sample containing greater than 1
percent asbestos).
A written report is sent to each participating laboratory at the
completion of each round (see Appendix B). This report lists the
qualitative results of the Bureau of Mine's reference analysis for each
bulk sample, the participating laboratory's performance rating, the
number of false negatives and/or positives reported by the participat-
ing laboratory, and a cumulative distribution for the percentage of
asbestos reported in each bulk sample by the participating laborato-
ries. Identification errors, resulting from the incorrect identifica-
tion of a mineral species is also indicated on the report to laborato-
ries. Identification errors do not result in a reduction of a labora-
tory's performance rating.
2.2 BLIND ROUND
2.2.1 Introduction
Great time and effort is assumed to be taken by the commercial
laboratories in their analyses of bulk material QA samples. The pur-
pose of the blind round is to determine to what extent the same results
can be expected in terms of analytical accuracy and precision in their
analyses of non-EPA bulk samples.
2-3
-------
The EPA instructed RTI to prepare a separate set of bulk materials
for analysis by a group of randomly selected commercial laboratories.
2.2.2 Procedures and Methods
The laboratories participating in the second blind round were
randomly selected from those listed in the RTI publication Commercial
Laboratories with Polarized Light Microscopy Capabilities for Bulk
Asbestos Identification, Interim Listing Number 15, EPA Bulk Analysis
Round 8.
Altogether 50 commercial laboratories participated in the second
blind round. Table 1 lists these 50 laboratories and their geographi-
cal location.

below:
The laboratory selection process followed the steps outlined
1. All of the commercial laboratories participating in Round 8 of
the U.S. EPA's Bulk Asbestos Sample Quality Assurance Program
were grouped by EPA Region (1 through 10). Table 2 lists the
number of commercial laboratories by EPA region.
2. Fifty laboratories or approximatley 30 percent of the 169 com-
mercial laboratories listed in Interim Listing Number 15, EPA
Bulk Analysis Round 8 were selected to participate in the
second blind round. The number of laboratories selected per
EPA region corresponds to the proportionate percentage of
laboratories located in a given EPA region. For example,
Region 1 contained 20 (or 11.8 percent) of the 169 commercial
laboratories that participated in Round 8 of the Bulk Sample
Asbestos Quality Assurance Program. Therefore, Region I was
allocated 6 (or approximately 12.0 percent) of the 50 commer-
cial laboratories stated for the second blind round. Based on
this type of rationale, the laboratory allocations for each
EPA region were determined, as given in Table 2.
3. Each commercial laboratory that participates in the Bulk Sam-
ple Asbestos Quality Assurance Program is assigned a four-
digit identification number as explained below:
0 The first digit corresponds to the EPA region (1 through 9
for Regions 1 through 9, and 0 for Region 10)
0 The second digit corresponds to the State (number 1 through
9 depending on the number of States located in the Region)
where the laboratory is located.
0 The last two digits are a computer-assigned random number.
A laboratory was selected for the second blind round when
its computer-assigned random number matched the two-digit
random number manually extracted from a random number
table.
4. A commercial laboratory selected for the second blind round
was replaced with another commercial laboratory located in the
same EPA region when the originally selected laboratory
0 Did not accept samples for asbestos analysis,
0 Accepted bulk samples for asbestos analysis only from com-
mercial clients,
0 Did not respond to the surveyor's request for information,
0 Had ceased operations,
0 Requested an analysis fee greater than $150 for three bulk
asbestos samples, and/or
0 Recommended or referred the caller to another commercial
laboratory.

SECTION 3
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The results of Bulk Sample Rounds 9, 10, 11, and Blind Round II
are described in this section. The total number of laboratories parti-
cipating in each round is listed in the introductory paragraph of each
round along with-a summary of the laboratory's analytical results. In
addition, a description of the bulk material samples used in each round
is provided.
3.1 BULK SAMPLE ROUND 9
Round 9 samples were distributed on April 27, 1984. Four bulk
samples were sent to a total of 254 participating laboratories (176
commercial and 78 noncommercial). Quantitative results were available
for 237 laboratories (170 commercial and 67 noncommercial).
Samples A and B were prepared for evaluation of quantitative esti-
mates provided by participating laboratories. Samples C and D were
obtained from removal projects. Sample A contained 1.8 to 2.0 grams of
a mineral wool/calcium carbonate mixture and 8 to 12 milligrams of
mine-grade chrysotile. It was estimated to contain 0.40 to 0.66 per-
cent asbestos, by weight. Sample B contained 1.8 to 2.0 grams of the
same mineral wool and calcium carbonate mixture used in sample A with
90 to 110 milligrams of mine-grade amosite. Sample 8 was estimated to
contain 4 to 6 percent asbestos, by weight. Sample C contained chryso-
tile, fibrous gypsum, vermiculite, and calcium carbonate. Sample D
contained fibrous glass, cellulose, and calcium carbonate.
The qualitative results for Round 9 are presented in Table 3. Of
the 948 samples analyzed in Round 9, 873 (92 percent) were classified
correctly while 848. (89 percent) were classified and identified
correctly.
.Sample A contained less than 1 percent of chrysotile, by weight.
As a result of the various analytical techniques utilized during PLM
quantitative procedures, 39 of the 237 laboratories (16 percent) that
analyzed sample A in Round 9 reported an asbestos concentration between

3 Correctly classified as an "asbestos containing material" as described in the Federal Register/Vol. 47,
No. 103/Thursday, May 27, 1982/Rules and Regulations/pg. 23370/Section 763.103, Definitions.
b Samples may be classified as asbestos-containing (positive) or as nonasbestos (negative). Classifica-
tion errors are false positives or false negatives.
c Identification errors are incorrect designations of the specific type(s) of asbestos present. Identifi-
cation and classsfication errors are mutually exclusive categories; i.e., incorrect classifications are
not counted as identification errors.
-------
one and five percent and 12 laboratories (5 percent) reported an
asbestos concentration of greater than 5 percent. Of the 237 labora-
tories that analyzed sample A in Round 9, 186 (78 percent) reported an
asbestos concentration of 1 percent or less.
Considering the variations in analytical procedure, EPA decided
that although 186 (78 percent) of the 237 laboratories correctly clas-
sified sample A as containing less than one percent asbestos by weight,
it would not reduce the remaining 51 (22 percent) laboratories perfor-
mance ratings. Therefore, a laboratory reporting an asbestos content
of 5 percent or less was given credit for sample A. This allowance to
5 percent was misinterpreted by some participating laboratories that
EPA had changed it's definition of an asbestos containing material (any
material which contains more than 1 percent of asbestos, by weight).
In fact, the EPA 1 percent definition of an asbestos containing
material had not been changed.
Because of this misunderstanding EPA elected to remove sample A
from Round 9. Round 9 is recorded as having only 3 samples, samples B,
C, and D. The maximum performance rating for Round 9 is 3/3, depending
on your score for samples B, C, and D.
Sample C was commonly misidentified as containing tremolite. How-
ever, as noted in section 2.1.5, identification errors are not counted
against the laboratories' performance ratings. The distribution of
quantitative results for participating laboratories is presented by
sample in Appendix D, Figures 1 through 4. Results are mailed to
participating laboratories for interlaboratory comparison.
The distribution of performance ratings for Round 9 is presented
in Table 4. Of the 237 participating laboratories in Round 9, 191
received a performance rating of 3/3 (no classification errors), 39 a
performance rating of 2/3 (one classification error), 6 received a per-
formance rating of 1/3, and 1 received a performance rating of 0/3.

3.2 BULK SAMPLE ROUND 10
Round 10 samples were distributed on September 7, 1984. Four sam-
ples were sent to a total of 320 participating laboratories (223 com-
mercial and 97 noncommercial). Results were returned by 282 labora-
tories (197 commercial and 85 noncommercial).
All of the bulk materials distributed in Round 10 were real-world
samples. Sample A contained chrysotile (8 - 13 percent), perlite, and
gypsum. Sample B contained chrysotile (50 - 60 percent) and cellulose
fibers. Sample C contained cellulose, and Sample D contained fibrous
glass with small amounts of mica and carbonate. Neither sample C or D
contained asbestos.
The qualitative results for Round 10 are presented in Table 5. Of
the 1,128 samples returned in Round 10, 1,096 (97 percent) were clas-
sified correctly while 1,082 (96 percent) were classified and identi-
fied correctly.

3.3 BULK SAMPLE ROUND 11
Round 11 samples were distributed on November 12, 1984. Four bulk
samples were sent to a total of 318 participating laboratories (224
commercial and 94 noncommercial laboratories). Laboratory reports were
returned by a total of 278 laboratories (198 commercial and 80 noncom-
mercial) .
3-6
-------
Sample A contained 100 percent fibrous glass that had been dyed
red. Sample B contained approximately 98 percent mine-grade crocido-
lite with 2 percent opaque complementary minerals. Sample C contained
>98 percent pyrophyllite and <2 percent lime. Pyrophyllite is used in
refractories, asphalt fillers, joint compounds, paints, roofing materi-
als, and wallboard. Sample D was 100 percent carbon fibers. Carbon
fibers are being used with increasing frequency to strengthen materials
as production costs come down and applications increase.
Sample C was selected because it is easily confused with antho-
phyllite or tremolite-actinolite asbestos. The refractive indices of
pyrophyllite are lower and the birefringence is higher than correspond-
ing properties of anthophyllite or tremolite-actinolite.
The qualitative results for Round 11 are presented in Table 7. Of
the 1,112 samples returned in Round 11, 1,055 (95 percent) were classi-
fied correctly while 1,041 (94 percent) were classified and identified
correctly.
There were five classification errors of Sample A, which is attri-
buted to the laboratories indicating that chrysotile was present. The
three classification errors in sample B indicated that the sample con-
tained either fiberglass or was listed as being "other" material.
Sample C was commonly classified as containing actinolite, anthophyl-
lite, or tremolite and, to a lesser extent, chrysotile. The laboratory
misclassifying carbon fibers, indicated that the sample contained cro-
cidolite.
The 14 identification errors recorded for sample B indicated pri-
marily amosite to be present rather than mine-grade crocidolite. To a
lesser extent, laboratories indicated that unspecified materials were
present. One laboratory indicated chrysotile to be present.
Quantitative results for participating laboratories are presented
in Appendix D, Figures 9 through 12. This information is provided to
participating laboratories for interlaboratory comparison although
these data are not used in determining performance ratings.

3.4 BLIND ROUND II
Three bulk asbestos samples were sent to each of the commercial
laboratories participating in the second blind round. Sample A con-
tained mixed amosite and chrysotile (80 percent). Sample B contained
layered amosite and chrysotile (>95 percent). Sample C contained mixed
cellulose, graphite fibers, vermiculite. The bulk materials used in
Samples A, B, and C were furnace insulation, ceiling material, and pipe
insulation, respectively. Each material was previously used as a bulk
material sample in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Bulk
Asbestos Sample Quality Assurance Program.
3-9
-------
A laboratory's analytical results were evaluated based on it's
ability to determine (1) if the bulk material contained 1 percent or
more of asbestos and (2) what type(s) of asbestos (amosite and/or
chrysotile) the bulk material contained.
Two of the 50 laboratories selected for the second blind round did
not participate in the round. One laboratory refused to accept the
bulk samples because the laboratory manager thought the RTI surveyor
was trying to secure evidence for a pending court case. The second
laboratory was nonresponsive (the laboratory report for the analysis of
the bulk samples was never sent to the RTI surveyor, after repeated
callings over the time period of August 1984 through November 1984).
The qualitative results for the second blind round are presented
in Table 9. Of the 144 bulk samples analyzed, 143 (99.3 percent) were
classified correctly. A misclassification (false positive) was report-
ed in one sample (Sample C) and the type of asbestos was incorrectly
identified in 29 samples (Samples A and B).
For Sample A, all 48 of the participating commercial laboratories
correctly classified the bulk material as containing greater than 1
percent asbestos, by weight. Of these 48 laboratories, 39 correctly
identified both amosite and chrysotile in the sample. Eight identifi-
cation errors resulted because the laboratories reported only one of
the two types of asbestos present in the sample. This result implies
that some laboratories are not conducting a thorough examination of the
bulk samples. One laboratory reported that Sample A contained
anthophyllite (not amosite or chrysotile), resulting in an additional
two identification errors, for a sample total of 10.
For Sample B, all 48 of the participating commercial laboratories
correctly classified the bulk material as containing greater than 1
percent asbestos. Of these 48 laboratories, 29 correctly identified
the type of asbestos in the sample as amosite and chrysotile. Nineteen
identification errors were reported for Sample B. These identification
errors resulted when only one of the two types of asbestos present in
the sample was reported.

SECTION 4.0
SUMMARY
Three aspects of analytical technique are considered in QA Rounds
9, 10, and 11. First, the bulk material is classified as either
asbestos-containing (greater than 1 percent) or non-asbestos-containing
(1 percent or less). Second, the specific type of asbestos (chryso-
tile, amosite, crocidolite), nonasbestos fibrous material (fibrous
glass, cellulose), or nonfibrous material (calcium carbonate, serpen-
tine) in the bulk material is identified. Third, the percentages of
asbestos and other major sample constituents are qualified. A
performance rating is calculated for each participating laboratory
based on the number of bulk samples correctly classified as containing
asbestos (greater than 1 percent).
The blind round evaluates commercial laboratories on their ability
to determine (1) if a bulk material contains greater than 1 percent of
asbestos, and (2) what type of asbestos the bulk material contains.
The participating laboratories are randomly selected from the interim
listing of Commercial Laboratories with Polarized Light Microscope
Capabilities for Bulk Asbestos Identification (see Appendix C). The
laboratories participating in the blind round are not aware, at the
time of analysis, that the bulk materials originate from RTI under the
auspices of EPA's Asbestos-in-Schools Program.
The number of laboratories participating in QA Rounds 9, 10, and
11 were 254, 320, and 318, respectively. The number of classification
errors in QA Rounds 9 , 10, and 11 were 75, 32, and 57, respectively.
The laboratories participating in the program each received the same
four bulk material samples to analyze per QA round.
Fourty-eight commercial laboratories participated in Blind Round
II, and only one classification error resulted. Each laboratory par-
ticipating in the Blind Round received the same three bulk material
samples to analyze.
Continuation of the Bulk Sample Analysis Quality Assurance Program
is anticipated. Any commercial or noncommercial laboratory that per-
forms PLM analysis of bulk material samples may participate. Current-
ly, two QA Rounds and one Blind Round are planned for each upcoming
fiscal year.

6. Results Coding Form
Transfer the data from the Results Reporting Form to the Results Coding Form using
the codes provided at the bottom of the form. Notice that the percentages are to be
recorded underneath the material type in the first four columns. Fill in only those
blocks that apply, and leave the others blank. Please print legibly because the data
on the Results Coding Form Is the data on which your performance rating will be
based.
7. Layered Samples
Often samples of Insulation materials will contain more than one "layer" or type of
material. When It Is apparent that a sample contains more than one layer, each layer
should be analyzed separately. For the purposes of this program, assume that each
layer comprises an equal volume of the sample, and report only one value for each
sample regardless of the number of layers that are present. For example: If a
sample Is made up of two different layers, and one layer Is 60? amoslte and the other
layer Is 40% chrysotlle, the correct reporting values would be 30$ amoslte, 20$
chrysotile, and 50% total asbestos.
8. Retain all samples for future reference following receipt of the round results and
statistical summary.

INTRODUCTION
The following laboratories participated in the current round of the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) bulk asbestos sample quality
assurance program. Laboratories are listed with their performance scores
for this and previous rounds in which they participated. Laboratory per-
formance was assessed on the basis of correct identification of "positive"
(containing >1 percent asbestos) and "negative" (containing <1 percent
asbestos) samples. Reductions of correct scores (3/3, 4/4, or 8/8) were,
made only for the reporting of false positives (nonasbestos sample reported
as containing >1 percent asbestos) or false negatives (1 percent or less
asbestos reported in an asbestos-containing sample), and not for the mis-
identification of individual asbestos mineral species. Although the cri-
terion is lenient, it recognizes the basic concern of the public—the
presence or absence of asbestos fibers in a submitted sample. Four separate
bulk samples were sent to each laboratory in Rounds 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
10, and 11; eight were sent in Round 3. Three samples were evaluated in
Round 9. All analyses were performed by polarized light microscopic (PLM)
analysis. Where numerical evaluations are omitted, an alphabetical character
is included to reference the description below.
Letter Description
D The laboratory was disqualified in that
round.
N The laboratory received samples but did
not participate in the round.
P The laboratory participated as a noncom-
mercial laboratory; performance scores
therefore are not reported.
U The laboratory did not receive samples
in that round.
