At a minimum this will include the roofing, siding, light ballasts, light switghes, light bulbs, and floor tile located in the Groups 8 & 9 buildings only.

The Group 64 warehouses will not require an inspection because only the roofs will be removed from theses buildings and previous inspections have confirmed the transite to be ACM.

NOTE: In addition to the ACM, the peeling paint within the building should be considered to be lead based paint, based on the age of the buildings. It is the responsibility of the contractor to handle this material in accordance with all associated regulations where applicable.

Contractor is responsible for field measurements taking into account the slope of the roof, any overlap in panels, and including transite roof caps and price as a lump sum for each group of buildings in areas 8 & 9. For Group 64 the square footage listed is the actual square foot measure of ACM transite material removed during earlier demolition projects and is priced per building. Any roof vents, stacks, or other items associated with the roof removal shall also be proerly disposed or recycled as misc. debris.

ACM Floor Tile – Buildings with marked with an asterisk in the lists above indicate that ACM floor tile has been identified within that building.

· PVL is accepting ACM. It is handled differently than other wastes. PVL can't handle huge amounts per day due to the way they are required to bury ACM. There are also placarding, handling, and paperwork differences. Contractor should contact PVL scale house for details.

· When PVL goes into a new cell (first layer over plastic liner), they will not be able to accept certain materials, it it up to the contractor to coordinate with PVL.
