This means: some activities shall only be performed outside of normal business hours; some activities may be curtailed if they interfere with normal activities, and may be delayed for other times or conditions. Other potential issues include, but are not limited to: noise pollution; noxious fumes; and vibrations. Restrictions on activities may be imposed even if they are below OSHA allowable limits. The CO or designated representative shall have the final authority over the needs of the Medical Center.

INFECTION CONTROL/CONSTRUCTION BARRIERS

The VA has performed internal infection control risk assessments (ICRAs) for all areas that require invasive work inside the occupied portions of the building. As part of this bid package, these ICRAs have been provided, which include prescribed contract requirements. The prescribed barriers, pressure controls, and other control methods detailed in each ICRA, are non-negotiable and must be followed, with regular condition assessments performed. Condition assessments (and necessary corrections) are to be performed daily, by the contractor’s personnel to ensure all temporary control methods are in good working order. The COR and infection control lead at the VAMC will perform condition assessments ad-hoc, and if control methods are found to be operating outside of prescribed ICRA guidelines, additional inspection intervals may be required at the discretion of the COR.
