(ACM) or presumed asbestos-containing materials (PACM). The location and type of ACM known to be present at the worksite is set forth in the specifications. If any other ACM or

PACM is found, notify the Designer about the location and quantity of the ACM or PACM within 24 hours of the discovery.

1.3 ASBESTOS HEALTH RISK

A. The disturbance or dislocation of ACM may cause asbestos fibers to be released into the building’s atmosphere, thereby creating a potential health risk to workers. Apprise all workers, supervisory personnel, subcontractors and consultants who will be at the job site of the seriousness of the risk and of proper work procedures which must be followed.

B. Where in the performance of the work, workers, supervisory personnel, subcontractors, or consultants may encounter, disturb, or otherwise function in the immediate vicinity of any identified ACM, take appropriate continuous measures as necessary to protect all building occupants from the risk of exposure to airborne asbestos.

Do not use these areas for parking or storage of materials. Schedule deliveries to minimize space and time requirements for storage of materials and equipment on-site.

B. Use of the Existing Building(s): The Building(s) will remain occupied during asbestos abatement.

1.5 OCCUPANCY REQUIREMENTS

SECTION 02 8212 - ASBESTOS ABATEMENT - REFERENCE STANDARDS AND DEFINITIONS

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.1 DEFINITIONS

A. Definitions Relative to Asbestos Abatement:

1. “Adequately Wet” means to sufficiently mix or penetrate with liquid to prevent the release of particulates. If visible emissions are observed coming from the asbestos-containing material (ACM), then that material has not been adequately wetted.

However, the absence of visible emissions is not sufficient evidence of being adequately wetted.

2. "Asbestos": The asbestiform varieties of chrysotile (serpentine), amosite

(cummingtonite-grunerite), crocidolite (riebeckite), tremolite, anthophyllite, actinolite, and any of these minerals that has been chemically treated and/or altered. For purposes of the contract documents materials described in the contract documents as asbestos are to be considered as asbestos.

3. "Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM)": Any material containing more than 1% asbestos as determined using the methods specified in appendix A, subpart F, 40 CFR part 763, section 1, Polarized Light Microscopy.

4. "Asbestos-Containing Waste Material": Any waste that contains asbestos. This term includes filters or other materials contaminated with asbestos. This term also includes regulated asbestos-containing material waste and materials contaminated with asbestos including disposable equipment and clothing.

5. "Asbestos debris": Pieces of ACM that can be identified by color, texture, or composition, or dust, if the dust is determined by an accredited inspector to be ACM.

6. "Certified Industrial Hygienist (C.I.H.)": One certified in the practice of industrial hygiene by the American Board of Industrial Hygiene.

7. "Competent person": An individual who meets the requirements of OSHA as a

“competent person” for the specific activity involved in the work. The “competent person” must meet the requirements of 29 CFR 1926.32(f), and 29 CFR 1926.1101.

8. "Filter": A media component used to remove solid or liquid particles from air and water.

9. "Friable Asbestos": Any asbestos-containing material that when dry, can be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure.

10. "Grinding": To reduce to powder or small fragments and includes manual or mechanical chipping or drilling.

11. "HEPA Filter": A High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter capable of trapping and retaining 99.97% of all mono-dispersed particles of 0.3 microns in diameter.

19321 02 8212/2 of 6

12. "HEPA Filter Vacuum Collection Equipment (or vacuum cleaner)": High efficiency particulate air filtered vacuum collection equipment with a HEPA filter.

13. "Intact": That the ACM has not crumbled, been pulverized, or otherwise deteriorated so that the asbestos is no longer likely to be bound with its matrix.

14. "Leak-tight": That solids or liquids cannot escape or spill out. It also means dust-tight.

15. "Negative Pressure Enclosure (NPE)": A pressure differential and ventilation system where the work area is maintained at a negative pressure relative to air pressure outside the work area.

16. "Nonfriable Material": any material that, when dry, cannot be crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by hand pressure and has not been rendered friable.

17. "Personal Monitoring": Sampling of the asbestos fiber concentrations within the breathing zone of an employee.

18. "Surfacing material": Material that is sprayed, troweled-on or otherwise applied to surfaces (such as acoustical plaster on ceilings and fireproofing materials on structural members, or other materials on surfaces for acoustical, fireproofing, and other purposes).

19. "Thermal system insulation (TSI)": Insulation applied to pipes, fittings, boilers, breeching, tanks, ducts or other components to prevent heat loss or gain.

20. "Time Weighted Average (TWA)": The average concentration of a contaminant in air during a specific time period as determined by the method prescribed in Appendix A of

29 CFR part 1926.1101.

21. "Visible Emissions": Any emissions containing particulate material that are visually detectable without the aid of instruments. This does not include condensed uncombined water vapor.

22. "Working Day": Monday through Friday and includes holidays that fall on any of the days

Monday through Friday as indicated in the notification requirements.

1.2 INDUSTRY STANDARDS

A. Applicability of Standards: Except where the Contract Documents include more stringent requirements, applicable construction industry standards have the same force and effect as if bound or copied directly into the Contract Documents to the extent referenced. Such standards are made a part of the Contract Documents by reference.

B. Publication Dates: Comply with the standards in effect as of the date of the Contract

Documents.

C. Conflicting Requirements: Where compliance with 2 or more standards is specified and the standards establish different or conflicting requirements for minimum quantities or quality levels, comply with the most stringent requirement.

19321 02 8212/3 of 6

1. Minimum Quantity or Quality Levels: The quantity or quality level shown or specified shall be the minimum acceptable. The actual installation may comply exactly with the minimum quantity or quality specified, or it may exceed the minimum within reasonable limits. To comply with these requirements, indicated numeric values are minimum or maximum, as appropriate, for the context of the requirements.

D. Copies of Standards: Each entity engaged in construction on the Project is required to be familiar with industry standards applicable to its construction activity. Copies of applicable standards are not bound with the Contract Documents.
