4.2 The Contractor shall provide to the Contracting Officer an AF Form 3000, Material and Approval Submittal, listing all materials that will be utilized during the contract period. If any of the material is classified as hazardous and is covered under Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) (42 U.S.C. 11001-11050) or other applicable host Nation, Federal, State, or Local tracking or reporting requirements and also covered under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200).

4.2.1 The Installation HAZMAT Management Program (IHMP) office will determine if any of the proposed materials to be used are hazardous materials (HAZMATs) and will require approval authorizations prior to bringing on or using any of those materials on the installation.

4.3 The Contractor will submit a Chemical/Hazardous Material Request Authorization (form will be provided to Contractor) for each of the material items with all supporting information as required for approval and must supply an up-to-date, current Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for each requested item listed as

Section 01400 – Page 5 of 14 a hazardous material, as defined to be delivered under this contract. The Contractor must maintain a file of all SDS during the performance of this contract.

4.4 The Contractor must obtain written authorization from the Contracting Officer and IHMP office prior to bringing or using any hazardous chemicals on the installation. The Contractor shall submit for Government Approval (via AF Form 3000) to the Contracting Officer on a monthly, quarterly basis, or at the end of the contract, as determined by the Contracting Officer and the IHMP. The report usage of all HAZMAT materials will be in two or more copies within that period on the required Contractor Hazardous Materials Usage Tracking Form.

4.4.1 The main Contractor is responsible for the chemical submittals for approval and all required reporting requirements for all sub-contractors who will be working on the project from the date of their contract for working on the project and throughout the duration of their contract to the Contracting Officer and then to the IHMP office.

SDSs must be submitted by the Contractor upon contract award. Failure to provide SDSs or certificate when requested could result in the Contractor being considered non-responsive and result in termination of the contract.

4.9.1 While there is no single definition that encompasses every type of hazardous chemicals, these items generally have a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prepared by the manufacturer. It is important to note that not every material with an SDS is not automatically considered a hazardous material. When there is a

Section 01400 – Page 6 of 14 question regarding whether or not a material is hazardous, additional guidance should be sought from the CO/COR where they can then pass on any questions about those materials to the installations Environmental, Safety and Occupational Health (ESOH) team thru the IHMP office.

4.9.2 Due to the new requirement of the current Globally Harmonized System (GHS) of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, per 29 CFR 1910.1200(g) requires that the chemical manufacturer, distributor, or importer provide Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) for each hazardous chemical to downstream users to communicate information on these hazards. It also mandates that all workplaces shall not have any SDSs older than five (5) years old and meet the new GHS requirements.

4.10 The Contractor shall not use products that are, or contain Toxic 17 chemicals, Extremely Hazardous Substances (EHS), Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS), CFC’s, or Persistent Bio-accumulative and Toxic (PBT) chemicals. Any Hazardous Material (HM) containing any of these banned substances will not be allowed on the installation.

4.11 If the hazardous material request is for a Class I ODS, CE will ensure there is an applicable and current Air Force Senior Acquisition Official (SAO) approval for contract Class I ODS requirements before approving the hazardous material authorization and make available to the Contractor.

4.12 If there is a change in IHMP-approved HAZMAT, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer and resubmit data as required.

4.13 For each Contractor-identified chemical that the IHMP determines does not meet the definition of a HAZMAT, IHMP requirements do not apply. IHMP will notify the Contracting Officer that the Contractor has authorization to bring and use that material on the installation without reporting usage use unless required under Green Procurement Program or specifications requiring data submittals.
