GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 01000 - 12
I. Universal and toxic wastes: Universal wastes include batteries, fluorescent tubes, other mercury containing bulbs, and mercury containing thermostats. Some of these items may be left in a building before demolition or remodeling. Toxic wastes include asbestos, lead based paint and Polychlorinated Biphenyl’s (PCB’s). Asbestos and lead based paint will be abated before demolition or remodeling;
however, older light fixtures may have ballasts which contain dielectric fluid with PCBs. All batteries (usually lead acid), fluorescent tubes, mercury containing bulbs, mercury containing thermostats, and older light ballasts with PCBs will be carefully collected in labeled containers in accordance with all applicable laws. Ideally these items will be recycled; however, disposal may be used when recycling costs are not reasonable. All recycling and disposal will be done in accordance with applicable laws.
J. Asbestos and Lead-Based Paint (LPB): The contractor is cautioned that materials in and around this project may contain asbestos or be coated with Lead-Based Paint (LBP). The contractor is required to have on site at all times a copy of the Asbestos/LBP inspection report provided by the 75 CES/CEOHA office. The government will make every effort to locate and identify all Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) and LBP prior to bidding; however this is not always possible. These materials are often hidden and cannot be discovered until after demolition has begun. The failure of the government to identify all ACM and LBP in no way relieves the contractor from his legal obligation to comply with state and federal regulations regarding the handling of asbestos, lead, or LBP. If suspected asbestos containing materials or LBP surfaces are encountered, immediately cease work and notify the CO and the project manager immediately. Do not conduct or continue with any work that will violate any Air Force, local, state or federal regulations regarding asbestos, lead, or LBP. If suspected materials or surfaces have not been disturbed, secure and post signs in the area where the materials are located to ensure that they are not disturbed. If the suspected materials have already been disturbed, secure and post signs in the area where the material was originally located, any areas to which materials have been moved, and any containers that suspect materials may have been placed in. Take all necessary steps to ensure that materials are not further disturbed, moved, or disposed of until directed to do so by the CO. Failure to notify the government promptly or failure to comply with state and federal regulations will be grounds for termination of their contract and may result in other appropriate civil and/or criminal actions. "The contractor will be fully responsible for any and all fines or other penalties resulting from his acts and /or omissions pursuant to law and regulation. At the Pre-Construction Conference, the contractor will be required to sign the "contractor's Notification of Hazardous Materials Requirements" at the end of this Section.
Asbestos abatement will be needed on many of the roofing task orders and shall be included as part of the work requirements. All asbestos/LBP abatement must be accomplished by an abatement contractor meeting the Hill AFB abatement contractor qualification requirements and approved by the 75 CES/CEOHA office. Abatement contractor qualification requirements are included in Part 4 Appendixes.
The abatement contractor is required to coordinate all abatement activities with the 75 CES/CEOHA offices and to provide copies of all project documentation upon completion of the project.
