The Contractor may opt to use a steady spray of water during demolition work in order to limit worker exposures. If so, the Contractor shall contain all discharges to prevent watershed, MS4, sanitary sewer, or any other contamination. The Contractor shall not contaminate the soil with lead due to excessive use of water.

The Contractor shall limit public access and the Contractor shall prevent public exposure to any lead concentrations above the PEL.

8.0 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

8.1 Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) Contractor Authorization Procedures - Contractors must obtain an authorization prior to bringing any HAZMAT onto MAFB. HAZMAT includes all items covered under EPCRA (or other federal, state or local) tracking requirements, the OSHA HAZCOM Standard, and all Class I and Class II ODS.

MAFB tracks HAZMAT through the Enterprise Environmental, Safety, and Occupational Health Management Information System (EESOH-MIS). The contractor may obtain guidance from CES/CEIE at 731-6163 or 731-6441.

8.2 HAZMAT inventory submittal

8.2.1 Following contract award and a minimum of 30 calendar days prior to beginning work, the Contractor and all their subcontractors must submit their HAZMAT inventory to CES/CEIE through the CO, COR, or QAE. The Contractor shall provide a complete HAZMAT inventory intended for use during the contract, process or procedure descriptions, total quantities, individual container types and sizes, etc. The Contractor should use the form template provided in Attachment 2-013600.

01 36 00-10 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

8.2.2 The HAZMAT inventory must include a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for each item listed.

Each SDS shall be three (3) years old or less.

8.2.3 Special consideration: Single Contractors (i.e., those with no subcontractors) and with proposed HAZMAT inventories of 15 or fewer items may submit their list a minimum of 10 calendar days prior to beginning work.

8.3 CES/CEIE will review the submittal and identify those hazardous materials requiring HAZMAT authorization procedures within EESOH-MIS. Note that MAFB may prohibit use of some materials that the Contractor lists on Attachment 2-013600. Materials which do not require EESOH-MIS entry require no additional authorization. CES/CEIE will forward the identified hazardous materials list to the CO, COR, or QAE.

CES/CEIE and the Hazardous Materials Pharmacy (HAZMART) will coordinate entry of the listed HAZMAT into the EESOH-MIS tracking system. Note that any emergency response issues, such as acquisition of unplanned new HAZMAT, require prior CES/CEIE approvals.

8.4 HAZMART will issue bar codes each time the Contractor brings formally authorized HAZMAT onto the installation. The contractor shall provide monthly HAZMAT consumption reports to the HAZMART.

8.5 Prior to contract completion, the Contractor will submit a final report of the actual quantities used on base. CES/CEIE will coordinate with HAZMART or the Contractor to reconcile actual HAZMAT usage during the contract period. The Contractor shall submit a HAZMART account close out report to the CO ten (10) days prior to the final acceptance inspection as a formal contract submittal.

8.6 The Contractor shall remove of all excess HAZMAT from the base upon contract completion.

9.0 STORAGE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

9.1 The contractor shall properly store all hazardous materials used on base property in designated areas in accordance with all Federal, State, local, and MAFB Fire Department regulatory requirements. Storage shall include, but not be limited to:

The contractor shall manifest all hazardous wastes per 40 CFR 263.20 and submit a copy of each waste manifest to CES/CEIE, 731-6163, within 45 calendar days of hazardous waste removal.

The contractor may obtain informal guidance from CES/CEIE on proper storage and handling of hazardous and universal waste from the contractor’s MAFB operations. However, all responsibility rests with the contractor to comply with federal and state hazardous waste requirements. Any information obtained from CES/CEIE does not remove responsibility from the contractor for proper waste management.

10.1.1 The contractor shall properly collect and identify all hazardous waste generated at MAFB from their operations, including spill cleanup.

10.1.2 In the event that the Government responds to any Contractor-caused spill cleanup or hazardous waste event not covered by the Contract, the Contractor shall reimburse the government all costs associated with the disposal of the spill or hazardous waste.

10.1.3 The contractor is responsible for all fines and penalties which may stem from an EPA or State of Montana Department Environmental Quality hazardous waste inspection of their operation.
