SUMMARY OF WORK

PART 1 – GENERAL

1.1 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

Project Location: This project is located at The Lake Mead Lodge Complex 322 Lake Shore Road, Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Nevada, consisted of the following buildings:

A. The Work consists of the following:

1. All materials, labor, equipment, and incidentals necessary to properly remove and dispose of asbestos containing material (ACM) from four (4) buildings, square footage shown above. Suspected ACM are; but not limited to; floor tiles, domestic water white corrugated paper pipe insulation and mud fittings, floor linoleum, and sprayed acoustical ceiling. The included report dated July 21, 2010 by Mactec Engineering reported the following:

Results of the asbestos survey and sampling indicated the presence of ACM in the following materials:

· 9-inch by 9-inch floor tiles - Buildings A and C

· l-foot by 1-foot floor tile- Buildings A, B, C, and D

· Domestic water white corrugated paper pipe insulation and mud fittings - Buildings B and D.

· Bathroom floor linoleum -Buildings A, B, C, and D.

· Spray-on acoustical ceiling spray - Building C, conference room.

2. All materials, labor, equipment, and incidentals necessary to properly remove and dispose of friable asbestos was noted in the maintenance rooms of Buildings Band D. The friable asbestos was in poor condition in these rooms.

3. All materials, labor, equipment, and incidentals necessary to properly remove and dispose of pad-mounted transformers were observed behind each building. Transformers can contain PCBs. No labeling denoting PCB content was identified on the transformers and based on age and appearance; they are assumed to contain PCBs. The following transformer designations were observed:

4. All materials, labor, equipment, and incidentals necessary to properly remove and dispose of fluorescent lighting typically associated with lamp ballasts. Lamp ballasts can contain PCBs and used light tubes can contain mercury. Used ballasts and 1ight tubes should be disposed of by using approved recycling or disposal vendors. Lamp ballasts and light tubes were observed in Building C. These materials will require specialized handling and disposal.

B. Remove regulated and non-regulated ACM and other hazardous items noted above in accordance with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Nevada Division of Environmental Protection, Nevada Occupational Safety and Health Enforcement Section (OSHES), and Clark County Department of Air Quality (CCDAQ). All friable material must be removed and non-friable material that may crumble during demolition will need to be removed as construction waste. During removal, all materials that contain more than 1% asbestos by weight must be accounted for and removed. The amount of asbestos material leaving the worksite must match the amount delivered to the disposal site, with any conflicts noted and resolved by the project manager. The disposal site must be a site certified by the EPA to dispose of asbestos containing materials.

C. EPA Category I Friable Regulated ACM (RACM) acoustical ceiling spray; OSHA Category II RACM wall texture and joint compound; OSHA Category II Non-Friable and Non-Regulated ACM floor tiles must be abated by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor in order to comply with Federal, State, and County regulations.

D. After the ACM and other hazardous items noted above have been abated from the site, a third-party visual clearance assessment will be performed by an OSHA licensed Asbestos Abatement Consultant in order to comply with Nevada OSHES and CCDAQ regulations.

E. All hazardous materials shall be handled, removed and disposed of in a legal manner, meeting all local and federal requirements and laws. All disposal shall be certified and proof of such, shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer.

SITE CLEARING

Revise this Section by deleting and inserting text to meet Project-specific requirements.

This Section uses the term "Architect." Change this term to match that used to identify the design professional as defined in the General and Supplementary Conditions.

Verify that Section titles referenced in this Section are correct for this Project's Specifications; Section titles may have changed.

1.1 RELATED DOCUMENTS

Retain or delete this article in all Sections of Project Manual.

A. Drawings and general provisions of the Contract, including General and Supplementary Conditions and Division 01 Specification Sections, apply to this Section.

1.2 SUMMARY

A. Section Includes:

1. Protecting existing vegetation to remain.

2. Removing existing vegetation.

3. Clearing and grubbing.

4. Stripping and stockpiling topsoil.

5. Removing above- and below-grade site improvements.

6. Disconnecting, capping or sealing, and abandoning site utilities in place.

Retain subparagraph below if erosion- and sedimentation-control measures are not included in Section 01500 "Temporary Facilities and Controls."

7. Temporary erosion- and sedimentation-control measures.

B. Related Sections:

Retain Sections in subparagraphs below that contain requirements Contractor might expect to find in this Section but are specified in other Sections.

1. Section 01500 "Temporary Facilities and Controls" for temporary utility services, construction and support facilities, security and protection facilities, and temporary erosion- and sedimentation-control measures.

1.3 DEFINITIONS

Retain definitions remaining after this Section has been edited.

A. Subsoil: All soil beneath the topsoil layer of the soil profile, and typified by the lack of organic matter and soil organisms.

B. Surface Soil: Soil that is present at the top layer of the existing soil profile at the Project site. In undisturbed areas, the surface soil is typically topsoil; but in disturbed areas such as urban environments, the surface soil can be subsoil.

Retain one of first two paragraphs below; revise to define "topsoil" according to local practices if required. Topsoil is raw material that typically needs screening and amending before meeting planting soil mix requirements. First paragraph assumes topsoil depth is known and shown or specified; second paragraph assumes that Contractor will identify and determine depth of existing topsoil. Coordinate with "Topsoil Stripping" Article.

C. Topsoil: Top layer of the soil profile consisting of existing native surface topsoil or existing in-place surface soil and is the zone where plant roots grow.
