1.10 REQUIRED LEAD-BASED PAINT MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES:

Appropriate OSHA worker protection is the responsibility of the employer. All projects will be monitored and inspected by BOS/CEV. The purpose of these instructions is to provide guidance to safely remove or encapsulate lead-based paint without causing a hazard. All work must be performed in accordance with OSHA, MDEQ and any local regulations for all work and disposal. The regulations are divided into two parts; a) lead-based paint on non-child occupied/non-target housing buildings and

b) child occupied/target housing buildings.

1.10.1 Non-child occupied/ commercial buildings:

1.10.1.1 For non-child-occupied/commercial buildings, the

minimum requirement for Contractors is to protect workers IAW OSHA requirements, use poly lay-down to collect paint chips, and turn into BOS/CEV for disposal. At minimum the supervisor of the project should be LBP trained and supply proof of certification before work begins. The Contractor shall notify BOS/CEV before start of any project. Contractor must place plastic on the ground sufficient to capture all loosened paint chips and control water run-off. Removal methods preferred at Keesler AFB are the use of an approved chemical stripper or wet sanding methods for better collection of LBP chips and waste. These processes minimize lead dust and allow for maximum collection of LBP chips.

1.10.1.2 The Contractor shall meet with BOS/CEV prior to

beginning the project to discuss protective measures, best management practices (BMP’s), any landfill disposal, and maintenance of chips and their collection (until they are turned over to BOS/CEV).

1.10.1.3 Any buildings with lead-based paint, if bead blasted to remove old paint, shall be supervised by a Contractor with proper training. Bead blasting upon prior approval only (see preferred method above).

1.10.1.4 The Contractor, under OSHA rules, must comply with

the lead-based paint rules (including notification to BOS/CEV, if the job is abatement), certify appropriate training, and maintain personal monitors on workers until it is demonstrated there is no airborne lead risk.

1.10.1.5 BOS/CEV will inspect all projects involving Lead

Based Paint removal and any required documentation must be provided to BOS/CEV prior to beginning work.

1.10.2 Child-occupied/target housing buildings:

1.10.2.1 Any child-occupied/target housing building older than 1978 must be painted using Lead Paint Protocol, including poly-lay-down, collection of paint chips, and the Contractor must always have a minimum of lead hazard training for all workers.

The Contractor shall notify BOS/CEV before start of any project.

1.10.2.2 A paint Contractor must collect paint chips in their own clean buckets and have BOS/CEV dispose (if contract requires BOS/CEV dispose). Contractor must place plastic on the ground sufficient to capture all loosened paint chips and control water run-off.

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 8

1.10.2.3 For work on child-occupied/target housing buildings

falling under the Lead Paint Protocol, the Contractor must use water or amended water when scraping or chipping. All members of the Contractor’s work force must wear protective clothing and comply with all OSHA rules and regulations. OSHA regulation compliance is the employer’s responsibility and is subject to inspection by OSHA and the Base. Suggested PPE include foot protection (ex. Rubber Boots) worn while on the poly. All PPE shall be stored on the protective plastic when not in use and shall be decontaminated or disposed of in an approved manner.

Minimum respiratory protection for any OSHA “trigger task” such as scraping, manual sanding, demolition, heat gun and power tool cleaning is a half-mask air purifying respirator (APR) with HEPA filter that is at least 99.97 percent efficient (i.e., P100). APR fit tests evidence must be provided for inspection. Other circumstances may warrant higher protection. PPE determination is the responsibility of the Contractor.

3.2.5 Government Activities

Show in schedule, Government and other agency activities that could impact progress. These activities include, but are not limited to approvals, acceptance, design reviews, environmental permit approvals by State regulators, inspections, utility tie-in, Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) and Notice to Proceed (NTP) for phasing requirements.

3.2.6 Contract Milestones and Constraints

Milestone activities are to be used for significant project events including, but not limited to, project phasing, project start and end activities, or interim completion dates. The use of artificial float constraints such as "zero free float" or "zero total float" are prohibited.

No constrained dates are allowed in the schedule other than those specified herein. Submit additional constraints to the Contracting Officer for approval on a case by case basis.

3.2.6.1 Project Start Date Milestone and Constraint

The first activity in the project schedule must be a start milestone titled "NTP Acknowledged," which must have a "Start On" constraint date equal to

SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 4 the date that the NTP is acknowledged.

3.2.6.2 End Project Finish Milestone and Constraint

The last activity in the schedule must be a finish milestone titled "End Project."

Constrain the project schedule to the Contract Completion Date in such a way that if the schedule calculates an early finish, then the float calculation for "End Project" milestone reflects positive float on the longest path. If the project schedule calculates a late finish, then the "End Project" milestone float calculation reflects negative float on the longest path.

3.2.6.3 Interim Completion Dates and Constraints

Constrain contractually specified interim completion dates to show negative float when the calculated late finish date of the last activity in that phase is later than the specified interim completion date.

3.2.6.3.1 Start Phase

Use a start milestone as the first activity for a project phase. Call the start milestone "Start Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.

3.2.6.3.2 End Phase

Use a finish milestone as the last activity for a project phase. Call the finish milestone "End Phase X" where "X" refers to the phase of work.

3.2.7 Adverse Weather

Ensure anticipated adverse weather is accounted for in the Project Schedule. AACE 84R-13 provides methodologies for techniques in planning for adverse weather. The preferred methodology is the use of a weather calendar. If a method other than a weather calendar is proposed, discuss the reason during the SEKO meeting.

3.2.8 Calendars

Schedule activities on a Calendar to which the activity logically belongs.

Develop calendars to accommodate any contract defined work period such as a 7-day calendar for Government Acceptance activities, concrete cure times, etc. Develop the default Calendar to match the physical work plan with non-work periods identified including weekends and holidays. Develop Seasonal Calendar(s) and assign to seasonally affected activities as applicable.

If a weather calendar is used its implementation and execution is to be in accordance with AACE 84R-13

3.2.9 Default Progress Data Disallowed

Actual Start and Finish dates must not automatically update with default mechanisms included in the scheduling software. Updating of the percent complete and the remaining duration of any activity must be independent functions. Disable program features that calculate one of these parameters from the other. Activity Actual Start (AS) and Actual Finish (AF) dates assigned during the updating process must match those dates provided in the Contractor Quality Control Reports. Failure to document the AS and AF dates in the Daily Quality Control report will result in disapproval of the

SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 5

Contractor's schedule.

3.2.10 Out-of-Sequence Progress

Activities that have progressed before all preceding logic has been satisfied (Out-of-Sequence Progress) will be allowed only on a case-by-case basis subject to approval by the Contracting Officer. Propose logic corrections to eliminate out of sequence progress or justify not changing the sequencing for approval prior to submitting an updated project schedule. Address out of sequence progress or logic changes in the Narrative Report and in the periodic schedule update meetings.

3.2.11 Added and Deleted Activities

Do not delete activities from the project schedule or add new activities to the schedule without approval from the Contracting Officer. Activity ID and description changes are considered new activities and cannot be changed without Contracting Officer approval.

3.2.12 Original Durations

Activity Original Durations (OD) must be reasonable to perform the work item. OD changes are prohibited unless justification is provided and approved by the Contracting Officer.

3.2.13 Leads, Lags, and Start to Finish Relationships

Lags must be reasonable as determined by the Government and not used in place of realistic original durations, must not be in place to artificially absorb or create float, or to replace proper schedule logic.

a. Leads (negative lags) are prohibited.

b. Start to Finish (SF) relationships are prohibited.

3.2.14 Percent Complete

Update the percent complete for each activity started. Activities which are complete but for remaining minor punch list work and which do not restrain the initiation of successor activities may be declared 100 percent complete to allow for proper schedule management, however, any progress reports shall reflect the actual percentage completed. Budgeted cost of activity is to be reduced by the amount needed to correct deficiency.

3.2.15 Remaining Duration

Update the remaining duration for each activity based on the number of estimated workdays it will take to complete the activity. Remaining duration may not mathematically correlate with percentage found under paragraph entitled Percent Complete. The remaining duration for unstarted activities are not to be less than its original duration.

3.2.16 Early Completion Schedule and the Right to Finish Early

An Early Completion Schedule is an Initial Project Schedule (IPS) that indicates all scope of the required contract work will be completed before the contractually required completion date.

a. No IPS indicating an Early Completion will be accepted without being fully resource-loaded (including crew sizes and hours) and the

SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 6

Government agreeing that the schedule is reasonable and achievable.

b. The Government is under no obligation to accelerate work items it is responsible for to ensure that the early completion is met nor is it responsible to modify incremental funding (if applicable) for the project to meet the contractor's accelerated work.

3.3 PROJECT SCHEDULE SUBMISSIONS

Provide the submissions as described below. The data reports and network diagrams required for each submission are contained in paragraph SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS. If the Contractor fails or refuses to furnish the information and schedule updates as set forth herein, the Contractor will be deemed not to have provided an estimate upon which a progress payment can be made.

Review comments made by the Government on the schedule(s) do not relieve the Contractor from compliance with requirements of the Contract Documents.

3.3.1 Preliminary Project Schedule Submission

Within 15 calendar days after the NTP is acknowledged, submit the Preliminary Project Schedule defining the planned operations detailed for the first 90 calendar days for approval. The approved Preliminary Project Schedule will be used for payment purposes not to exceed 90 calendar days after NTP. The Preliminary Project Schedule may be summary in nature for the remaining performance period. It must be early start and late finish constrained and logically tied as specified. The Preliminary Project Schedule forms the basis for the Initial Project Schedule specified herein and must include all of the required plan and program preparations, submissions and approvals identified in the contract (for example, Quality Control Plan, Safety Plan, and Environmental Protection Plan) as well as design activities, planned submissions of all early design packages, permitting activities, design review conference activities, and other non-construction activities intended to occur within the first 90 calendar days. Government acceptance of the associated design package(s) and all other specified Program and Plan approvals must occur prior to any planned construction activities.

3.3.2 Initial Project Schedule Submission

Submit the Initial Project Schedule for approval within ten (10) calendar days after notice to proceed is issued. The schedule must demonstrate a reasonable and realistic sequence of activities which represent all work through the entire contract performance period.

No payment will be made for work items not fully detailed in the Project Schedule.

3.3.3 Periodic Schedule Updates

Update the Project Schedule on a regular basis, monthly at a minimum.

Provide a draft Periodic Schedule Update for review at the schedule update meetings. These updates will enable the Government to assess Contractor's progress. Update information including Actual Start Dates (AS), Actual Finish Dates (AF), Remaining Durations (RD), and Percent Complete.

Updated information is subject to the approval of the Government at the meeting.

a. AS and AF dates must match the date(s) reported on the Contractor's Quality Control Report for an activity start or finish.

SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 7

3.4 SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Submit the following items for the Preliminary Schedule, Initial Schedule, and every Periodic Schedule Update throughout the life of the project, and as directed by the CO:

3.4.1 Electronic Scheduling Data

Provide electronic scheduling data containing the current project schedule and all previously submitted schedules in the format of the scheduling software (e.g. .xer). PDF format is also acceptable. Also include the Narrative Report and all required Schedule Reports. The electronic file is to identify the type of schedule (Preliminary, Initial, Update), full contract number, Data Date and schedule file name. Each schedule must have a unique file name and use project specific settings. The file naming convention is to be determined at SEKO meeting.

3.4.2 Narrative Report

Provide a Narrative Report with each schedule submission. The Schedule Narrative Report is a "stand alone" report in PDF or Word format. Title the report "Schedule Narrative Report". Show the Report date, schedule name, and contract number on the first page. Indicate who is responsible for the schedule update and narrative report. Provide a brief description of the Project Scope. The Narrative Report is expected to communicate to the Government the thorough analysis of the schedule output and the plans to compensate for problems, either current or potential, which are revealed through that analysis. Include the following information at a minimum in the Narrative Report:

a. Identify and discuss the work scheduled to start in the next update period.

b. Describe activities along the critical path in addition to activities on the next float path after the critical path.

c. Describe current and anticipated problem areas, delaying factors and their impact, and an explanation of corrective actions taken or required to be taken. Identify the party responsible for delay, if applicable.

d. Identify and explain why activities, based on their calculated late dates, should have either started or finished during the update period but did not.

e. Identify and discuss all schedule changes by activity ID and activity name including what specifically was changed and why the change was needed. Include at a minimum new and deleted activities, logic changes, duration changes, calendar changes, lag changes, resource changes, and actual start and finish date changes.

f. Identify and discuss out-of-sequence work.

g. If the longest path changes from a monthly update to the next, provide an explanation of the factors driving the change.

3.4.3 Schedule Reports

The format, filtering, organizing, and sorting for each schedule report will be as directed by the Contracting Officer. Typically, reports contain Activity Numbers, Activity Description, Original Duration, Remaining Duration, Early Start Date, Early Finish Date, Late Start Date, SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 8

Late Finish Date, Total Float, Actual Start Date, Actual Finish Date, and Percent Complete. Provide the reports electronically in .pdf format.

The following lists typical reports that will be requested:

3.4.3.1 Activity Report

List of all activities sorted according to activity number.

3.4.3.2 Total Float Report

A list of all incomplete activities sorted in ascending order of total float. List activities which have the same amount of total float in ascending order of Early Start Dates. Do not show completed activities on this report.

3.4.3.3 Scheduling and Leveling Report

Provide a Scheduling/Leveling Report generated from the current project schedule being submitted.

3.4.4 Network Diagram

The Network Diagram is required for the Preliminary, Initial and Periodic Updates. Depict and display the order and interdependence of activities and the sequence in which the work is to be accomplished. The Contracting Officer will use, but is not limited to, the following conditions to review compliance with this paragraph:

3.4.4.1 Continuous Flow

Show a continuous flow from left to right with no arrows from right to left. Show the activity number, description, duration, and estimated earned value on the diagram.

3.4.4.2 Project Milestone Dates

Show dates on the diagram for start of project, any contract required interim completion dates, and contract completion dates.

3.4.4.3 Critical Path

Show all activities on the critical path. The critical path is defined as the longest path.

3.4.4.4 Grouping and Sorting

Group and sort activities as directed to assist in the understanding of the activity sequence. Typically, this flow will group activities by major elements of work, category of work, work area and/or responsibility.

3.5 REQUESTS FOR TIME EXTENSIONS

ASCE 67-17 provides delay analysis guidelines. If there is a conflict between the contract and guidance provided in ASCE 67-17, the contract will govern. Provide justification of delay to the Contracting Officer in accordance with the contract provisions and clauses for approval, within 10 days of a delay occurring. Also prepare a time impact analysis for each Government request for proposal (RFP).

SECTION 01 32 01.00 10 Page 9

3.5.1 Justification of Delay

Provide a description of the event(s) that caused the delay and/or impact to the work. As part of the description, identify all schedule activities impacted. Show that the event that caused the delay/impact was the responsibility of the Government. Provide a time impact analysis that demonstrates the effects of the delay or impact on the project completion date, or interim completion date(s). Evaluate multiple impacts chronologically; each with its own justification of delay. With multiple impacts consider any concurrency of delay. A time extension and the schedule fragnet becomes part of the project schedule and all future schedule updates upon approval by the Contracting Officer.

3.5.2 Changes That Do Not Cause Delay

If it is determined that a change does not constitute a schedule time extension, a fragment as described in paragraph FRAGMENTARY NETWORK, is to be created and inserted into the Project schedule.

3.5.3 Time Impact Analysis (Prospective Analysis)

Submit requests for time extensions based on a prospective analysis if the work involved or the impact identified has not already occurred. Where the impact is ongoing a prospective analysis may be considered. However, the Government reserves the right to require a retrospective analysis be prepared after the impact has ended.

Prepare a time impact analysis for approval by the Contracting Officer based on industry recommended practice…
