HAZARDOUS DEMOLITION PLAN

(PHASE I)

FIRST FLOOR DEMOLITION PLAN

1/4" = 1'-0"2

GROUND FLOOR ABATEMENT DEMOLITION

3/16"= 1'-0"1

GENERAL NOTES:

1. ASBESTOS ABATEMENT SHALL BE PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SPECIFICATION AND APPLICABLE

REGULATIONS. PERSONNEL HOLDING CURRENT NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR (NYSDOL) ASBESTOS HANDLER'S CERTIFICATES SHALL PERFORM THE WORK. ADDITIONALLY, THE CONTRACTOR MUST EMPLOY NYSDOL CERTIFIED SUPERVISORS TO BE ON THE WORK SITE FOR ALL ABATEMENT ACTIVITIES. THE CONTRACTOR MUST BE CURRENTLY LICENSED BY THE NYSDOL. ALL CERTIFICATES AND LICENSES ARE TO BE READILY AVAILABLE FOR VERIFICATION BY THE VETERANS AFFAIRS MEDICAL CENTER (VAMC).

2. CONTRACTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL OF ALL ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIALS AND

ASBESTOS-CONTAMINATED MATERIALS WITHIN THE SPECIFIED AREAS.

3. CONTRACTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIFICATION OF ALL QUANTITIES OF ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIALS.

4. CONTRACTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PRECLEANING ANY EXISTING ASBESTOS CONTAMINATION, DUST AND

DEBRIS WITHIN THE REMOVAL AREAS.

5. CONTRACTOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING THE INTEGRITY OF BUILDING FINISHES. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL REPAIR ANY AND ALL DAMAGES CAUSED BY ABATEMENT ACTIVITIES OR HIS PERSONNEL.

6. CONTRACTOR IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL MEANS, METHODS, TECHNIQUES, SEQUENCES AND PROCEDURES AND FOR COORDINATING ALL PORTIONS OF THE SCOPE OF WORK UNDER THIS CONTRACT.

7. SOME OF THE WORK MAY BE PHASED TO ACCOMMODATE THE VAMC FACILITY REQUIREMENTS. WORK MAY HAVE TO BE PERFORMED OFF-HOURS, WEEKENDS AND AT NIGHT AT NO ADDITIONAL COST TO THE VAMC.

8. THE PROJECT SHALL BE FILED AS A LARGE PROJECT WITH THE NYSDOL AND USEPA.

9. REPLACE INSULATION WHERE REMOVED FROM PIPING SLATED TO REMAIN. REFER TO INSULATION

SPECIFICATION FOR MORE INFORMATION.

10. EXISTING CONDITION OF FLOOR SLAB, ROOF DECK, AND ROOF SLAB INSIDE AND ABOVE SHAFT ARE UNKNOWN.

PROVIDE SHOP DRAWINGS OF EXISTING FLOOR/CEILING SLAB CONDITIONS ONCE SHAFT IS OPEN.

CONTRACTOR SHALL DEMOLISH SLABS AND/OR DECK AS NECESSARY FOR WORK. PROVIDE SHOP DRAWINGS

OF FLOOR & CEILING OPENINGS SIGNED BY NYS-PE FOR APPROVAL.

ASBESTOS ABATEMENT NOTES:

1. THE CONTRACTOR IS TO REMOVE THE ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIALS (ACM'S) AND ASBESTOS CONTAMINATED

MATERIALS IN ACCORDANCE WITH NEW YORK STATE INDUSTRIAL CODE RULE 56 (12 NYCRR PART 56), THE VAMC SPECIFICATION AND APPLICABLE FEDERAL OSHA AND EPA REGULATIONS. WHERE THERE IS AN OVERLAP THE MOST

STRINGENT REGULATION SHALL APPLY.

2. THE ASBESTOS ABATEMENT CONTRACTOR SHALL PERFORM GLOVEBAG REMOVAL WITHIN HEPA-FILTERED NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE TENT ENCLOSURES FOR MINOR QUANTITIES OF PIPE INSULATION. NONFRIABLE ACM REMOVAL SHALL BE PERFORMED WITHIN HEPA-FILTERED NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE CONTAINMENTS. ALL ABATEMENT AREAS SHALL HAVE AN AIRLOCK ENTRANCE OR ATTACHED DECONTAMINATION UNIT AS SHOWN ON THE ACCOMPANYING DRAWING (1-HA-101).

THE ENCLOSURE SHALL BE VENTED TO THE OUTDOOR AIR VIA HEPA-FILTERED NEGATIVE AIR MACHINES. NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE CONTAINMENTS SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH 12 NYCRR PART 56. IN AREAS OF PUBLIC ACCESS THE ENCLOSURES SHALL BE SHEATHED FOR SAFETY. SPECIFIC AREAS OF WALL PLASTER, ENCLOSING THE PIPE INSULATION, WILL NEED TO BE REMOVED AS ASBESTOS-CONTAMINATED MATERIAL TO ACCESS THE UNDERLYING PIPE INSULATION. REMOVAL OF THE WALL PLASTER SHALL BE PERFORMED WITHIN THE HEPA-FILTERED NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE ENCLOSURES. ONLY REMOVE THE WALL PLASTER DIRECTLY ENCLOSING THE PIPE INSULATION. THE REMAINING WALL PLASTER CAN BE REMOVED AND DISPOSED OF AS CONSTRUCTION DEBRIS FOLLOWING ABATEMENT.

THE CONTRACTOR SHALL ALSO ABATE ANY DEBRIS AS ACM THAT IS PRESENT. FIRE DOORS CAN BE REMOVED INTACT, WRAPPED AND LABELLED AS ACM AFTER THE HEPA-FILTERED NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE ENCLOSURE HAS BEEN ERECTED.

3. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL COORDINATE THE LOCATION OF HAZARDOUS WASTE DUMPSTER WITH THE COR AT THE

PRECONSTRUCTION MEETING.

4. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY AND ALL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ASBESTOS ABATEMENT

ACTIVITIES.

5. THE GENERATOR SHALL BE SHUT DOWN, LOCKED OUT, AND TAGGED BEFORE THE CONTRACTOR IS TO BEGIN ABATEMENT ACTIVITIES. MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS, WHICH CANNOT BE LOCKED OUT AND TAGGED, SHALL BE

PROTECTED AND SUPPORTED THROUGHOUT ASBESTOS ABATEMENT ACTIVITIES.

6. SCHEDULING OF WORK SHALL BE COORDINATED WITH THE V.A. NUMEROUS MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS MUST REMAIN OPERATIONAL THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT. THESE SYSTEMS ARE CRITICAL TO THE VAMC'S OPERATION AND MUST BE PRESERVED AND PROTECTED THROUGHOUT THE ASBESTOS ABATEMENT PROJECT. SOME OF THE WORK MAY BE PHASED TO ACCOMMODATE VAMC FACILITY REQUIREMENTS. WORK MAY HAVE TO BE PERFORMED DURING REGULAR (0800-1600) OFF-HOURS (1600-0000), WEEKENDS AND AT NIGHT (0000-0800). SOME WORK MAY HAVE TO BE PERFORMED 24-HOURS AROUND THE CLOCK FOR SPECIFIC MECHANICAL AND OPERATIONAL SHUTDOWNS. COORDINATE 24-HOUR OPERATIONS WITH VAMC SHUTDOWNS. SCHEDULING OF THIS WORK IS CRITICAL TO THE OPERATION OF THE

FACILITY.

7. IN AREAS OF PUBLIC ACCESS, THE CONTRACTOR SHALL ERECT ISOLATION BARRIERS THAT SEPARATE THE WORK AREAS FROM THE REMAINDER OF THE BUILDING. THE BARRIERS SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED OF A FIRE RETARDANT SHEATHING MATERIAL OF AT LEAST 1/2" THICKNESS. THE ISOLATION BARRIER SHALL BE PLASTICIZED WITH TWO (2) LAYERS OF 6-MIL PLASTIC SHEETING. THE ISOLATION BARRIERS SHALL BE CAULKED AT THE SHEATHING SEAMS AND WHERE THE SHEATHING MEETS THE FLOOR, WALLS AND CEILING. THE ISOLATION BARRIER SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED USING 2"X4" FRAMING, 16 INCHES CENTER-TO-CENTER, AND CAULKED AT ALL SEAMS. ALL UTILITIES AND PIPING SHALL BE LOCKED

OUT AND TAGGED BEFORE THE CONTRACTOR IS TO BEGIN ABATEMENT ACTIVITIES.

8. SELECTIVE DEMOLITION IS REQUIRED PRIOR TO ABATEMENT. COORDINATE WITH GENERAL CONTRACTOR AND

CONTRACTOR OFFICER'S REPRESENTATIVE.

KEYED NOTES:

REMOVE ACM ON GENERATOR EXHAUST PIPE BEFORE WORK TO

TEMPORARILY EXHAUST THE GENERATOR BEGINS. ACM SHALL BE

REMOVED A DISTANCE AWAY FROM TEMPORARY CONNECTION

POINT TO CREATE SAFE WORK SPACE FOR GENERATOR EXHAUST

RE-ROUTING. SEE ASBESTOS DRAWINGS FOR ABATEMENT

PROCEDURE. GENERATOR SHALL BE SHUTDOWN WHILE ACM

ABATEMENT IS HAPPENING. SHUTDOWN SHALL OCCUR DURING

NON-BUSINESSHOURS AND SHALL BE COORDINATED WITH THE VA

COR.

PROVIDE TEMPORARY FENCING 10' AWAY FROM EXHAUST PIPES

AND STRUCTURES, AND INCLUDING STRUCTURAL FOUNDATION IN

ALL THREE DIRECTIONS. PROVIDE GATE PLAN SOUTH OF EXHAUST

PIPES IN THE FENCE. SEE DETAIL 9/MG-502 AND SHEET MD-101.

PROVIDE SIGN ON ALL THREE SIDE OF FENCE STATING:"DANGER.

HOT EXHAUST PIPE. AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY. EXHAUST CAN

TURN ON AT ANY TIME."

ALL WINDOWS ON THE FLOORS ABOVE THESE PIPES, WITHIN 10
