GENERAL BACKGROUND
The following relates to a phone conference on 10-12-17;
The background and engineering intent of the project were outlined, primarily by Chris Lee of Mac Miller, for the benefit of orienting DOH and the entire team to the details of the project.
There was discussion of the intent of the project. The conclusion was that, although the project was initiated by a specific HVAC issue, any issues with compliance with USP 797 should
be identified if possible through this project. There are two areas of concern: regulatory change since construction of the building and some doubt about the original construction
of the building, given the issues that have now been uncovered with the HVAC. Compliance with USP 800 is viewed by the pharmacists as a separate issue. The compliance deadline has
been postponed to December 2019.
There was a question about the HVAC diffusers. The existing, office-type diffusers will be changed to pharmaseal type diffusers with room-accessible filters at room (a USP requirement).
The old HEPA filters are on the roof (which is fine for the exhaust filtration).
Some existing details of the chemo room and anteroom were discussed. The ceiling in the room is hard lid. The floor is coved sheet vinyl. The anteroom handwash sink is not a scrub
sink. It is a large handwash sink (too much-excess splash on floor & adjacent surfaces). It is unknown whether the walls are painted with epoxy paint, but, the final finish must be
epoxy.
There was discussion of room relative pressures, including pharmacy, anteroom, janitor closet.
There was an update of project status: the project has been submitted to DOH and the City of Edmonds. DOH’s turnaround time is set at 28 days. The city’s turnaround time for permit
review is unknown. The city is not requiring a building permit despite the need to reinforce the roof, only a mechanical permit.
DOH (Kevin Scarlett) is scheduled to visit the project site on October 24 at 9:30 am.
The budget was discussed. It is known that the project is overbudget. Right now, known issues include:
-The rooftop unit needed to provide the code-required air changes is larger than originally anticipated.
-The need to reinforce the roof was not identified during the original budgeting process;
-More extensive roofing and curb work will be needed for the larger unit.
-An issue with the return air ducting was identified subsequent to the original budget;
-Additional Swedish system safety requirements during construction have been introduced to the project that have the effect of raising the cost.
-Other code noncompliance issues also have potential for increasing the budget. The budget will be revisited again after the scheduled DOH site visit on October 24.
Start of Project Preliminary comments;
T1
Full (additional beyond HVAC) Pharmacy compliance issues will become operative in December 2019.
T2
Remove the fire extinguisher & cabinet from the Ante room. Okay to place in main pharmacy.
An FE & Cabinet are not an allowed element in a clean room unless specifically required (and it’s not required in any of these clean rooms). Also, the Extinguisher (upon any safety assessment)
will place it in the main pharmacy for ready access and use.
T3
Horn/Strobe – Remove from both clean rooms under the private mode clause of NFPA 72. Kevin will coordinate with City Fire Kevin Zwebber. Note: there is an existing Horn/Strobe in Main
Pharmacy and is located just outside of the Ante Room.
T4
HD Storage access - Preferred access to the HD Storage room should be from the Pharmacy space, not the Ante room. The Ante should be dedicated to garbing and doffing PPE prior to entering
the compounding room. That said, Kevin is checking with DOH Pharmacy (Gordon) to see if access to HD Storage could be permitted for the long term (permanent) basis.
T5
Both Clean Rooms - GWB Walls and GWB Ceilings must be epoxy painted (suggest at least 2 coats due to the latex sub-coat & recommend consult with coatings expert for appropriate cover
to exist substrate).ALL surfaces in these rooms must be non-friable in use and during cleaning and regular maintenance activities.
T6
Ante room sink needs to be a scrub sink. Facility indicated that an existing unit was just salvaged from another recent project. If not a scrub sink - Ante room scrub sink must be deep
enough to allow users to scrub up to their elbows without regular splash to floor and adjacent surfaces.
T7
Doors &door frames must be fully sealed with no gaps or seams. Wood or metal doors must be epoxy painted. DO NOT use any door seals or door drops of any kind. These cannot be cleaned,
are not otherwise required (fire or other codes) and the doors actually operate better without the tighter seal. Also, the room design accounts for this door gap leakage. As a reminder,
when you remove door seals they must be prepped for the epoxy paint coating.
T8
Recommend fur-out of new walls to cover low wall returns in clean rooms and mount the EA grille about 1ft AFF to rough-in (or ensure 1” minimum clearance between outer edge of EA grille
flange at top of cove base. The 8” dimension discussed is from ASHRAE S170 –Ch 7 and regulates Surgery RA (USP just calls for ‘low wall return/exhaust’.
Should you choose to re-use the exposed SS duct, it must be totally sealed to wall, ceiling and adjacent duct (I can see at least 5 very problematic seal issues with the existing configuration
and I may have missed a couple – ALL of them must be resolved at project approval/final acceptance).
T9
Occupancy sensors will NOT be required. Gang all light switching outside the ante room entry.
T10
Sprinkler heads – use anti-ligature sprinkler heads because they are easy to clean. Standard sprinkler heads invite disaster when they are cleaned.
T11
Pressure monitors;
a) Recommend locating all pressure monitors in visual range of Pharmacy personnel where the area is continuously staffed.
b) Balance to 5 Pa (0.02”) and alarm at 0.01” at the low range, and 0.03” at the high range after 2 minutes out-of-range. Negative in Chemo Prep & Positive in Ante.
c) Recommend setting monitors to indicate Pa (pretty much anyone can tell if the monitor reads 1.8 that they need to call Rex….if it reads 3.3…..still need to call Rex….but, not as urgent.
Basically, it’s being able to see the order of magnitude easier…..for even lay-people.
d) Pressure monitors, interlocks and air washes are not required for a pass-through, however they are becoming a best practice recommendation.
T12
All seams in clean room spaces complying with the new requirements will require different details to be fully sealed. An epoxy sealant with appropriate shore hardness (D70-or approved)
is required. Wall protection panels, vinyl floor edges, etc. should all be finished without moldings and must be sealed with a (D70-or approved) epoxy sealant. ALLjoints must be sealed
except joints to accessible (required) access such as outlet covers, HVAC Grilles, Light fixture (inner joints (outer to be sealed), themostats and monitors.ALLfixed construction must
be epoxy sealed. Joints between door frames and walls, all seams such as the joints in the knock-down door frames, all re-lite frame joints, acrovyn panel joints, floor base to wall
joint, any item permanently affixed to the wall such as monitor brackets, bracing to hoods, etc.. An access panel must seal to the ceiling, but, the access panel opening does not (a
gaset for this panel may be required (verify w/kevin via cut sheet or inspection). Also, door vision panels to door and any seams. The gaps behind the auto-door operators must be eliminated
(epoxy caulk the units’ base & leave the cover ‘free’ or not sealed/caulked).
T13
The anteroom should only be used for donning and doffing of clean room PPE and for scrubbing. It should not provide access to other spaces or be used for storage or other purposes.
T14
Hood units should be about 1ft (or as determined by Dan/Jens) off the walls for cleaning access.
T15
Leading edge of new SA grille suggested to be aligned with the front face of the hoods. Use a type E diffuser (or similar laminar flow) with HEPA filter at ceiling.
T16
Do NOT use a handicap boot at the sink waste for scrub sink.
T17
REMOVE any item which does not have a specific purpose for ongoing use in these two clean rooms (example – room signs/door stops/similar not required).
T18
The only product which may be brought into the room is for prep use within one shift period. No other storage is permitted in either clean room.
T19
Haz Storage must be negatively pressurized to 2.5 Pa and have 12 ACH of MERV 14 air and exhaust directly to the exterior through HEPA filtration.
T20
Haz Storage has no other finish requirements similar to the 2 clean rooms. Suggest Sheet Vinyl floor with coved base, latex wall paint, lay-in ceiling okay. Cleaning regiment for this
storage room does not match the clean rooms.
T21
Provide a cleaning supplies small locker just outside the ante room.
T22
You may omit the ‘red line’ in the ante room. Since the only personnel entering this room are the highly trained Pharmacy staff working in these rooms.

6
Air pressurization in the Ante Room and Positive Buffer Room appear to be opposite the intention. The Positive Buffer Room should be the most highly pressurized of the 3 clean rooms.
Verify and revise volumes indicated on Sheet TM0.01 (Ante Room +240cfm/Positive Buffer Room ++160cfm) as these two should be reversed. Suggest reducing EA from Ante Room to 190cfm and
increasing EA from Positive Buffer Room to 380cfm.
Approved 5/16/18 – based on documents received 4-18-18, MacDonald-Miller (MM) indicates that airflows have been revised to make the Positive Buffer Room the most highly pressurized room
and reduced the pressurization of the Ante Room. See the revised airflow matrix on drawingTM0.01. -kas
7
Indicate in plan where pressure monitors are physically located (best to place above door-or away from hood).
Approved 5/16/18 – based on documents received 4-18-18, MacDonald-Miller (MM) indicates that the details for locating the pressure monitors has been added to drawing TM2.02. Locations
for the pressure sensor wall plates are added to the HVACdrawings. While this comment is approved it should be noted that the pressure devices in the Ante room are in odd array. Each
device should be installed immediately opposite the other. -kas
8
Provide cut sheets on sinks and faucets used on this project. Suggest reuse of one of the existing scrub sinks in the ante room.
Approved 5/16/18 – based on documents received 4-18-18, MacDonald-Miller (MM) indicates to refer to item #5 above. Scrub sink will be reused (Attachment4). -kas
9
Verify/indicate how hands are dried (verify lint free towels) and how/what PPE is applied in ante room.
Approved 5/16/18 – based on documents received 4-18-18, Pharmacy - Jens Frisvold and Dan Murphy,Pharmacists): Yes, we use lint free towels in all of our IV rooms. Everyone wears scrubs.
We put on hair nets, face masks and beard covers (if needed) as we enter the anteroom and then put on shoe covers as we cross the line of demarcation in the anteroom. Once inside we
wash hands, put on a gown and sterile gloves. Those going into the negative pressure buffer room where a chemo certified gown, two pairs of booties and two pairs of chemo certified
sterile gloves which are put on in anteroom prior to entering the neg pressure bufferroom. -kas
10
Verify security sealant (shore hardness D) at ALL joints in the ante & 2 clean rooms.
Not Approved 5/16/18 – based on documents received 4-18-18, TGB indicates that Finish note # on A2.12 is edited to indicate ALL SEALANT SHALL BE (D-70 OR APPROVED AND COMPLY WITH DOH
REQUIREMENTS [REF: COMMENT T12]. PROUCT SPEC: DYNAFLEX SC FLEXIBLE POLYURETHANE OR APPROVED BY DOHCRS. While the ‘note’ is acceptable, the cut sheet defies thenote. Actually the cut
submitted indicates it is Shore A55. Suggest following the recommendation on the very cut submitted and supply DynaPoxy in lieu of DynaFlex. -kas
Approved 7/10/18 – based on documents received 6-13-18, the supplied cut sheets indicate using DynaPoxy EP-1200 and Sheet A2.12 indicates the same. –kas

Verify/indicate where HEPA filters are located for Chemo hood and room exhaust. USP800
Not Approved 5/16/18 – based on documents received 4-18-18, MacDonald-Miller (MM) indicates to 1.SeetheattachedAttachment7ChemoHoodcutsheetforlocationsoftheHEPAfilters. 2.The USP Compounding
Expert Committee has eliminated HEPA filtration for the room exhaust (C-SEC) in a revision posted on 15-Apr-2016. See the revision on the USP website:
http://www.uspnf.com/notices/hazardous-drugs-handling-healthcare-settings
Item #11.1 covers the hood (KAS still needs to verify directly with Jens&Dan) however the room exhaust HEPA must be located/indicated. Item #11.2 has NOT been approved by committee.
-kas
Not Approved 7/10/18 – based on documents received 6-13-18, the Engineer MM indicates that a roof mounted HEPA filter housing has been added for the Chemo Compounding roomexhaust.
the supplied cut sheets indicate an acceptable housing, however, discharge containing ANY hazardous content must follow both requirements of comments # 12 & #17 below (ie-add signage
and 10ft discharge). Submit indication of the applicable signage and 10ft discharge on ALL Hazardous Exhaust.
The Chemo hood exhaust still must be verified to contain HEPA on the Exhaust side. The common set-up is the HEPA in the hood provides the ‘first air’ to the hood itself creating the
ISO 5 from the ISO 7 environment. If there are two HEPA’s on the hood, we will mark which one handles the Exhaust Air and then we’re resolved, otherwise, the hood must be filtered on
the exhaust side. –kas
Approved 5/15/19 – based on documents received 4-18-19, the Engineer indicates the following;
The roof mounted HEPA filter housing has been removed from the room exhaust for the chemo compounding room. The HEPA filter is no longer required on the room exhaust (C- SEC) per the
current version of USP 800. The chemo compounding BSC exhaust discharges with an exhaust stack 10 ft above the roof (exhaust fan EF-06). The chemo compounding room exhaust also discharges
with an exhaust stack 10 ft above the roof (exhaust fan EF- 05). Exhaust fan discharge height is shown on HVAC Note 3 on the roof plan drawing TM2.03. Both fans will be provided with
hazardous exhaust signage as shown on HVAC Note 1 and 2 on the roof plan drawingTM2.03.
The Chemo BSC has HEPA on the exhaust side. The chemo hood is a Nuaire NU-475-600 Class II, Type A2 BSC. Doug Chinn, the local Nuaire representative with Cascade Scientific, confirmed
that this BSC has a HEPA filter for the exhaust. See the airflow diagram on the attached PDF “475 literature” that was provided byDoug.–kas
