Is asbestos and/or lead-based paint present in the housing areas?
Asbestos: An asbestos-containing material (ACM) inspection of military family housing in the eight NAPR residential communities was performed in January and February 2005 in anticipation of property transfer. According to the June 2005 Final Asbestos Inspection Report for Military Family Housing, Naval Activity Puerto Rico, Ceiba, Puerto Rico (Baker, 2005a) which is part of the Due Diligence Library, NAPR housing was reportedly constructed between 1960 and 1975. Twenty-seven of the housing units in the Manatee Bay community are of original construction and the remaining 935 NAPR units were renovated to varying degrees beginning in 1989. Renovation of some of the units included removal of ACM. While ACM was identified in all of the residential communities except Rainbow Hill (which is the only housing area not in Sale Parcel II), no friable, accessible and damaged (FAD) ACM hazards were identified in the housing units that were inspected. Not all units in NAPR housing were inspected. In
