The Contractor shall research, and be responsible for obtaining, all regulatory, permitting and licensing requirements in accordance with JCH-814, 2013 Section 1.7. No drawings or specifications will be submitted for any permits unless authorization, in writing, is received from the Contracting Officer.

B. JOB CORPS GUIDELINES

1. JCH-814, September 2013

Planning, Design, and Construction Administration Guidelines for Architects and Engineers. Job Corps publication JCH-814, September 2013, "Planning, Design, and Construction Administration Guidelines for Architects and Engineers," is a companion document to this scope of work. The JCH- 814/2013 can be found at http://www.solicitationattachments.com. It presents the Contractor additional design criteria not specifically stated in the scope of work. Where conflicts occur between the contract and JCH 814/2013, the requirements of the scope of work will take precedence.

C. OTHER STANDARDS

1. Sustainability Design and Building Requirements

The design for the new roofs will, to the extent possible, be in accordance with the requirements of ASHRE 189.1, Job Corps Sustainability Guidelines for Projects of Limited Scope v.3.16.15, and will comply with the criteria for the EPA’s Energy Star Program Requirements for Roof Products. “Green Sheet” or JOB CORPS SUSTAINABILITY GUIDELINES FOR PROJECTS OF LIMITED SCOPE

OF WORK V.2.26.2015.

2. Energy Conservation

All new work is to be designed in accordance with energy conservation opportunities and applicable federal directives. In response to energy conservation concerns, all proposed construction will conform to the current edition of ASHRAE 90.1, Zone 1.

C-6

All work must be designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (or latest version), which includes Sections 103, 104, 109, 131, 553; Executive Order 13423; and all other applicable federal, and local codes and directives.

All new roofing must be Energy Star rated.

3. Environmentally Preferable Products

The Contractor shall evaluate options for the use of environmentally preferable products and environmentally preferable building design and shall include a description of recommended options in the DESIGN NARRATIVE (see JCH-814 for requirements).

4. Asbestos-Containing Materials

An asbestos survey of the Center’s buildings was conducted in March, 1990. The results of the survey and subsequent lab tests confirm the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) in certain locations of the buildings. A copy of the report will be made available to the Contractor. The Contractor is to conduct an asbestos survey to include testing for the areas to be affected by the work.

It is not intended that all asbestos identified in the report be removed. Asbestos containing materials will only be removed as necessary to complete the work described in this Scope of Work.

All asbestos abatement will be done by licensed, trained asbestos workers, supervisors, and contractors. An asbestos abatement work plan will be prepared by a licensed, trained asbestos project designer for submission and approval by the COR. The asbestos abatement work plan will include the list and location of materials to be abated, methods of abatement, containment setup and location, decontamination procedures, respiratory protection, all worker licenses, training certifications and medical certifications, and disposal plan including transportation and final disposal location. All asbestos work must be done in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local regulations. The Contractor shall provide the services of an independent industrial hygienist or environmental consultant to conduct on-site project monitoring and air monitoring services during asbestos abatement, including laboratory services as needed. The consultant shall:

a. Conduct a field investigation to identify ACM affected by the activities required by this Scope of

Work. The field investigation will include destructive testing as required to identify and quantify the presence of ACM. Because the requisite field investigation and testing will be performed in occupied buildings, the Contractor shall coordinate with DOL and the Center Operator to determine the appropriate after-hours schedule for conducting the subject investigations. It is not intended that the ACM previously identified be retested. However, suspect ACM not previously identified should be sampled to determine asbestos-content. The Contractor shall inspect the flashing used when the Building 2 roof was installed. Suspect ACM may have been used in the flashing application. The Contractor shall inspect the Building 7 windows for presence of lead paint and PCBs. Provide a testing schedule for all ACM investigations, and coordinate the schedule with the Center Director or his designated representative.

b. Conduct on-site project monitoring and air-monitoring services during asbestos abatement including laboratory services as needed, including but not limited to:

C-7

Baseline air sampling (prior to abatement) with Phase Contrast Microscopy (PCM) laboratory analyses.

In-progress air monitoring and sampling with PCM laboratory analyses.

Final visual clearance inspections and final clearance air sampling using aggressive air sampling techniques. Sampling must be conducted in compliance with all applicable Federal, State, and Local requirements.

Submit a final abatement report certifying that asbestos abatement work has been completed in accordance with all applicable Federal, State, and Local regulations.

Note: The Contractor shall pay for all costs for additional sampling and analyses resulting from improper execution of the asbestos removal or final clean up. All tests must be done in accordance with the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA).

5. Existing Facility Investigative Survey

If the work is to be performed on an existing building for which plans are not available, the Contractor shall perform an investigative survey to determine if there are hidden conditions or elements which may impact the proposed design. Demolition may be required to expose suspected unknown elements, including but not limited to the following:

a) The survey will determine the extent of any hidden structural elements. The design and spacing of hidden structural elements must be investigated.

b) The survey will locate any hidden mechanical or electrical components, the presence of which would impact the proposed design.

c) Any openings in the exposed finishes created to perform the investigative survey must be sealed and restored in all areas where there are occupants. Any opening hidden by the exposed finish ̧ such as a drop-in ceiling, need only be sealed.

d) Care must be taken to avoid disruption of suspected or known ACM or other

D. SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS

1. Center Operation

The Center will remain in operation throughout the construction. The Contractor shall, as part of this contract, coordinate with the US Department of Labor (DOL) Engineering Support Contractor (ESC) and develop a set of construction documents that minimize disruption of Center operations during construction.
