COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS: All waste materials generated by any work under this contract performed on a Federal Government installation shall be handled, transported, stored, recycled, and disposed of by the Contractor and by his/her subcontractors at any time in accordance with these specifications, all applicable federal, State, or local laws, ordinances, regu-lations, court orders, or other types of rules or rulings having the same effect of law. These include but are not limited to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) (40 CFR 260-270);

Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended (33 USC Sec 1251 ET SEQ); The Clean Air Act, as amended (42 USC Sec 1857 ET SEQ); The Endangered Species Act, as amended (16 USC Sec

1531, ET SEQ); The Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended (15 USC Sec 2601, ET SEQ);

The Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended (42 USC 6901 ET SEQ); the Archaeological and His-toric Preservation Act, as amended (16 USC Sec 469, ET SEQ), and the Virginia Solid Waste

Management Regulations (9VAC20-81).

The Contractor shall collect all solid wastes generated during the performance of the contract in a container/area provided by the Contractor and approved by the Contracting Officer. The Contrac-tor shall provide appropriate containers for the collection and segregation of solid wastes, recycla-bles and C&D debris generated directly and indirectly by work under this Contract. The Contrac-tor is prohibited from using base dumpsters or other Federal Government owned/leased waste re-ceptacles for the disposal of any solid wastes. All solid wastes shall be reclaimed, recycled or disposed of prior to completion of work on JBLE-Langley.

As proof of proper disposition of solid wastes, the Contractor shall provide legible weight receipts for solid waste disposed and materials recycled bearing the name, address, and phone number of the receiving facilities for every load of materials delivered. The weight ticket shall detail the type of material, weight of the material in pounds or tons, the date of the transaction, and a signature from a representative of the receiving facility. Receipts shall be submitted to the Contracting Of-ficer and Project Manager within ten calendar days after the transaction.

Under no circumstances will any solid waste or hazardous materials be left at JBLE-Langley at the end of the project. Before the project is turned over to the Federal Government, the Contractor will remove all solid wastes and hazardous materials from the installation. Those items include but are not limited to dirt piles, concrete piles, asphalt piles and rubbish piles. No materials will be left for the future use of the Federal Government UNLESS instructed to do so in writing by the

Federal Government. This is to include the before mentioned items and also regular or touch-up paint, plaster, solvents, etc. If it is determined that the Contractor left materials behind, services may be terminated and/or a penalty payment to include the cost of disposal of the material by the

Federal Government may be withheld from the project payment.

NOTE: Hazardous materials are different from hazardous wastes so be careful not to confuse the two. Hazardous Wastes will not be removed from the installation without the 633 CES Hazardous

Waste Managers signing the Hazardous Waste Manifest. The JBLE-Langley Hazardous Waste

Managers can be contacted at 757-764-1133/1132 if needed.

1.6. WATER QUALITY.

1.6.1. EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL: Regardless of project size amount of land disturbance, the Contractor is responsible for ensuring that adequate erosion and sediment controls are utilized on site to present sediment from leaving the activity at all times. ESC practices selected for use shall be designed, installed and maintained in accordance with the Virginia Erosion and

Sediment Control Handbook. The Contractor shall provide erosion control fencing (silt) to prevent site runoff. Black or brown silt fence color is approved, no other color will be accepted. Hay bales must not be used for erosion control and inlet protection from stormwater run-off. The Contractor shall submit alternate methods of protection to the Contracting Officer at the preconstruction con-ference for review and approval from the Water Program Manager. The Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor of his/her decision prior to issuance of Notice to Proceed (NTP).

Land Disturbing Activities (LDAs) that are 2,500 square feet up to 10,000 square feet require the

Contractor to develop a site specific Erosion and Sediment Control Plan that complies with Vir-ginia Erosion and Sediment Control Law and Regulations (9 VAC 25-840) and meets the state’s

19 minimum standards outlined in 9 VAC 25-840-40 as applicable. The ESC Plan shall include site plan (s) / detailed maps for the work site that clearly show the siting of the ESC practices and best management practices. The Virginia Uniform Coding System for ESC Practices shall be used on all site plan submittals. The ESC Plan shall include a statement describing the Contractor’s maintenance responsibilities required for the ESC controls. The Contractor shall submit the ESC

Plan to the Contracting Officer for an initial review. Once reviewed and approved, the Contractor will submit to VDEQ for final approval.

1.6.2. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (SWM Plan): For LDAs disturbing over

10,000 square feet, projects shall comply with VSMP Regulations Part II B - Technical Criteria for Regulated Land-Disturbing Activities (9 VAC 25-870-32 through 9 VAC 25-870-92). A com-plete SWM Plan must meet the requirements of 9 VAC 25-870-55. This includes the following elements: (1) Information on the type of and location of stormwater discharges, information on the features to which stormwater is being discharged including surface waters or karst features if pre-sent, and pre-development and post-development drainage areas; (2) Contact information includ-ing the name, address, telephone number, and email address of the owner; (3) A narrative that includes a description of current site conditions and final site conditions; (4) A description of the proposed stormwater management facilities (aka Best Management Practice (BMPs)) and the mechanism through which the facilities will be operated and maintained after construction; (5)

Information on the proposed stormwater management facilities, including the type of facilities;

location including geographic coordinates; acres treated; and the surface waters into which the facility will discharge; (6) Hydrologic and hydraulic computations, including runoff characteris-tics; (7) Virginia Runoff Reduction Method (VRRM) compliance sheets; (8) Documentation and calculations verifying compliance with the water quality and quantity requirements (Part II B of the regulations) of these regulations; and (9) A map or maps of the site that depicts the topography of the site.

For projects with a VDEQ approved SWM Plan (completed during the design phase, primarily large construction projects) it is the construction Contractor's responsibility to implement the Plan and its design features.

For projects that do not have an approved SWM Plan associated with the design (primarily demo-lition and smaller projects), it is the Contractor's responsibility to develop and implement a SWM

Plan. At the completion of the project, a construction record drawing(s)("as-built") for permanent stormwater management facilities shall be provided bearing the seal and signature of a Virginia registered professional, certifying that the stormwater management facilities have been constructed in accordance with the approved SWM plan.

1.6.3. STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN (SWPPP): For LDAs over 1 acre, a full SWPPP submittal shall be developed in accordance with 9 VAC 25-870 and 9 VAC

25-880 and submitted to VDEQ for approval. No LDAs may commence without an approved

SWPPP.

All SWPPPs must contain the following:

Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (See Section 3.3.3);

Stormwater Management Plan (See Section 3.3.4);

Pollution Prevention (P2) Plan; and information specifying any additional control measures to meet the requirements of existing Total Maximum Daily Loads

(TMDL).

Within the SWPPP the Contractor shall develop a site specific Pollution Prevention (P2) Plan in accordance with 9 VAC 25-870-56. The P2 Plan must identify potential sources of pollutants that may reasonably be expected to affect the quality of stormwater discharges from the construction site and a description of control measures that will be used to minimize pollutants in stormwater discharges from the construction site must be developed before land disturbance. This Plan shall be included in the Contractor's SWPPP submittal. At a minimum, the P2 Plan must be designed, installed, implemented, and maintained to: (1) Minimize the discharge of pollutants from equip-ment and vehicle washing, wheel wash water, and other wash waters. Wash waters must be treated in a sediment basin or alternative control that provides equivalent or better treatment prior to dis-charge; (2) Minimize the exposure of building materials, building products, construction wastes, trash, landscape materials, fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, detergents, sanitary waste, and other materials present on the site to precipitation and to stormwater; and (3) Minimize the discharge of pollutants from spills and leaks. The SWPPP must also address the following requirements to the extent otherwise required by state law or regulations and any applicable requirements of a state permit: (1) Control stormwater volume and velocity within the site to minimize soil erosion; (2)

Control stormwater discharges, including both peak flow rates and total stormwater volume, to minimize erosion at outlets and to minimize downstream channel and stream bank erosion; (3)

Minimize the amount of soil exposed during construction activity; (4) Minimize the disturbance of steep slopes; (5) Minimize sediment discharges from the site - erosion and sediment controls must address factors such as the amount, frequency, intensity and duration of precipitation, the nature of resulting stormwater runoff, and soil characteristics, including the range of soil particle sizes expected to be present on the site; (6) Provide and maintain natural buffers around surface waters, direct stormwater to vegetated areas to increase sediment removal and maximize storm-water infiltration, unless infeasible; (7) Minimize soil compaction and, unless infeasible, preserve topsoil; (8) Stabilization of disturbed areas must, at a minimum, be initiated immediately whenever any clearing, grading, excavating, or other earth disturbing activities have permanently ceased on any portion of the site, or temporarily ceased on any portion of the site and will not resume for a period exceeding 14 calendar days; and (9) Utilize outlet structures that withdraw water from the surface, unless infeasible, when discharging from basins and impoundments.

1.6.4. CONSTRUCTION GENERAL PERMIT (CGP) COVERAGE:

LDAs greater than or equal to one (1) acre require Construction General Permit coverage under the Virginia Stormwater Management Program (VSMP)General Permit for Discharges of Storm-water from Construction Activities from the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The

Virginia Stormwater Management Program Permit Regulations can be found in 9 VAC 25-870 and the General Permit for Discharges of Stormwater from Construction Activities can be found in 9 VAC 25-880. After SWPPP approval (see Section 3.3.5), the Contractor shall register for

CGP coverage from DEQ in accordance with 9 VAC 25-880-50. The Contractor is considered the

Permit Operator and is responsible for all CGP registration fees. See below for the applicable construction permit fees per 9 VAC 25-870-820:

DEQ CGP PERMIT FEE SCHEDULE

Site Size

DEQ Fee

1 to <5 acres $2,700.00

>5 acres to <10 acres $3,400.00

>10 acres to <50 acres $4,500.00

The Contractor shall submit a copy of the DEQ Construction General Permit Registration State-ment to the Contracting Officer for review and approval prior to submittal to DEQ. Upon approval, the Contractor shall submit the DEQ Construction General Permit Registration Statement and ap-plicable fee to DEQ. The Contractor may begin LDAs once a DEQ Construction General Permit coverage letter has been received. No LDAs shall commence without an approved SWPPP and

DEQ-issued CGP coverage. The Contractor shall be responsible for terminating permit coverage once the project site has reached final stabilization and verified by the Inspector and Contracting

Officer. Final Stabilization is defined in 9 VAC 25-880-1 as soil disturbing activities have been completed and a permanent vegetative cover has been established on denuded areas not otherwise permanently stabilized. Permanent vegetation shall not be considered established until a ground cover is achieved that is uniform, mature enough to survive, and will inhibit erosion.

1.6.5. PROHIBITED ILLICIT DISCHARGES:

The Contractor shall ensure no illicit discharges occur at the project site. An "illicit discharge" is any non-stormwater discharge to the storm drain system, except as expressly allowed by JBLE-

Langley’s VPDES permits, the project-specific VSMP General Permit for Discharges of Storm-water from Construction Activities, and/or a discharge approved in writing by JBLE-Langley.

Water from firefighting, hydrant flushing, and A/C condensate are not considered illicit discharges.

Examples of illicit discharges include the following:

Dumping of trash or debris

Disposing of vehicle/equipment maintenance fluids into a storm drain

Leaking dumpsters flowing into a storm drain inlet

Pouring paints, stains, hazardous materials into a storm drain

Cleaning paint brushes/applicators in or near a storm drain

Allowing wash waters with soaps, detergents, or paint debris into a storm drain inlet

Washing silt, sediment, concrete, cement or gravel into a storm drain

Allowing uncontrolled release of sediment into a storm drain inlet

A measurable flow during dry weather that contains any other pollutants

1.7. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS MANAGEMENT

1.7.1. Hazardous Materials Usage and Reporting: In compliance with AFI 32-7086 Hazardous

Material Management dated 4 Feb 2015, all Contractors are required to report the usage of all hazardous materials to the Federal Government for all projects and contracts including service contracts executed on JBLE-Langley. In accordance with FAR Clause 52.223-3, each offeror

(Contractor) must provide the Contracting Office with a list of proposed HAZMAT that it plans to use on the installation during the performance of the contract. In accordance with AFFARS Clause

5352.223-9303, Contractors must obtain Air Force authorization prior to using HAZMAT on an

Air Force installation, and must report usage data to the HAZMART.

Hazardous materials are any substance defined by OSHA as a hazardous substance requiring a

Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Hazardous materials that need to be reported include but are not limited to chemicals, paints, thinners, sealing compounds, strippers, glues, solvents, all petroleum products including oils, hydraulic fluids, and fuels stored on-site (fuels in vehicles are exempt), pesticides, adhesives, acids, flammables, corrosives, oxidizers, compressed gases (such as but not limited to oxygen, acetylene, propane, flammable and non-flammable gases), all aerosols, and all materials containing hazardous substances.

The Contractor shall request the proposed usage of all Hazardous Materials by completing the

“Contractor Hazardous Material Worksheet” at Attachment 2 (Contractor Hazardous Material

Worksheet) for each hazardous material and shall submit a copy of the SDS for each item to the

Contracting Officer (CO) prior to bringing the items on the installation. The Contractor shall submit to the CO the information for each item within 10 days after award of the contract or project and/or not less than fourteen calendar days prior to bringing the items on the installation. The

Contractor shall submit this information to the CO as soon as possible for short notice contracts or projects. An electronic version of the Contractor Hazardous Material Worksheet can be obtained through the Project Manager or 633 CES/CEIE.

The CO will immediately provide this information to the Project Manager who will in turn imme-diately provide it to 633 CES/CEIE. If possible, it is best to submit this information electronically so it can be distributed to reviewing parties electronically for a faster review. Submit each 3952 followed by the SDS for each hazardous material.

After the project starts, monthly usage information will be provided to the CO who will in turn provide this information to the Project Manager who will in turn provide it to 633 CES/CEIE.

Attachment 3 (Monthly Report for HAZMAT) of this section will be used to report monthly usage.

For contracts/projects exceeding six months, this form is required to be filled out on a monthly basis. For contracts less than six months, this form is required at the beginning and upon comple-tion of work.

If there are any questions on how to fill out the Contractor Hazardous Material Worksheet or the monthly report, contact the JBLE-Langley HAZMART at 757-764-3837 Monday thru Friday be-tween the hours of 0730-1630 or visit them at:

1.7.2. Hazardous Materials Management Process (HMMP): The JBLE-Langley HMMP team will meet on an as-needed basis to review the Contractor Hazardous Material Worksheets and

SDSs to ensure there are no concerns with the chemicals being used and/or stored on the installa-tion. If there are concerns about any chemicals and if it is determined that the Contractor plans to use an extremely hazardous chemical on JBLE-Langley, the HMMP team will notify the Project

Manager and the Contracting Officer (CO) who will in-turn notify the Contractor of JBLE-Lang-ley’s concern. The Contractor will not bring any extremely hazardous chemicals on JBLE-Langley or any other chemicals that the HMMP team determines cannot be used on JBLE-Langley. The

HMMP team will also notify the Project Manager if all hazardous materials are authorized for use.

If the Contractor requires additional hazardous materials not previously submitted for approval, they shall submit the request as stated above seven days prior to bringing the item on the base.

NOTE: If it is determined at any time that hazardous materials are on site that were not reported in advance, the CO will be notified and the project can be stopped until the materials are submitted as stated above.

1.7.3. Hazardous Material Storage: Hazardous materials will be managed properly at all times while on JBLE-Langley. This means containers will be in good condition and will be properly labeled with the contents and hazard class (flammable, corrosive, oxidizer, etc.) at all times. Con-tainers will be closed at all times when not in use. Hazardous materials shall be kept under cover to protect them from the elements and to prevent stormwater runoff contamination. Tanks and 55-gallon liquid drums shall have secondary containment. Gas cylinders shall be maintained in the upright position with caps on and secured with chains and locks to prevent tampering and from falling over. Gas storage areas will have signs indicating what type gases are stored in the area

(i.e. flammable, oxidizer, non-flammable, etc.). NO SMOKING signs will be posted in all haz-ardous materials storage areas. In addition, all hazardous materials will be segregated in storage according to compatibility (i.e. flammables will not be stored with corrosives, corrosives will not be stored with oxidizers, flammable gases will not be stored with flammable liquids, etc.). JBLE-

Langley is subject to inspections at any time from outside agencies (EPA, Virginia Dept. of Envi-ronmental Quality and OSHA), any violations by the Contractor will be the responsibility of the

Contractor and any fines associated with the violations will be resolved at the Contractor’s ex-pense.

1.8. USE OF RECYCLED-CONTENT PRODUCTS: (GREEN PROCUREMENT): When-ever the potential for use of non-recycled content products exists during the construction stage of the project, the Contractor shall incorporate in this project, as a substitute, recycled-content prod-ucts that are listed and identified in EPA’s Comprehensive Procurement Guideline (CPG) Program for recycled-content products. The Contractor shall use recycled-content products as required by

EPA and other governmental agencies and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses.

It is mandated by Executive Order 13423, (Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy and

Transportation Management) and Section 6002 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act

(RCRA) that the Federal Government use recycled-content products in the construction and/or renovation of facilities. It is the intent of the Federal Government to comply with the EPA re-quirement 100% of the time and use as many of the applicable listed recycled-content products as feasible and economically practical. The Contractor shall consider this a standard requirement for all aspects of the project construction.

The recycled-content products listed in the CPG can be found on EPA’s website.1 These products are also listed in Attachment 4 (Contract Submittal and Contractor Reporting Form). This list is subject to change at any time so it is the Contractor’s responsibility to be aware of any updates or additions.

Such products shall also comply with the requirements of EPA’s Consolidated Recovered Materi-als Advisory Notice (RMAN). The RMANs recommend recycled-content ranges for CPG prod-ucts based on current information on commercially available recycled-content products. The rec-ommended recovered materials content percentage can be obtained by clicking on the product on the website.

1.8.1. Green Procurement Forms Before starting the project, the Contractor shall complete At-tachment 4 indicating the items he or she plans to use. The Contractor will provide this to the

Contracting Officer and the Project Manager. Upon completion of project construction, the Con-tractor shall complete the form again. At this time, the Contractor shall indicate the use and non-

1 www.epa.gov/cpg/products.htm http://www.epa.gov/cpg/products.htm use of products that are contained in the CPG, and shall list the recycled-content percentage for the applicable item. In each instance where a recycled-content construction product is not used, the Contractor shall provide to the Contracting Officer (or his/her designated representative) and the Project Manager a completed Exemption Form, Attachment 5 (Recovered Materials Determi-nation Form).

The Contractor shall complete this form for all items for which he or she desires an exemption from the Green Procurement Program for Recovered Materials that are being procured. Exemp-tions can only be taken if all of the following conditions are met:

(1) the item is not available within a reasonable period of time

(2) item fails to meet a performance standard in the specifications, and

(3) the item was only available at an unreasonable price i.e., the recycled-content product costs more than the non-recycled content product.

The fourth reason on the Recovered Materials Determination Form (i.e., the item is not available from two or more sources), does not apply to construction/renovation Contractors as the Federal

Government will not prescribe where you can get your materials from. The Contractor shall pro-vide specific reasons why an item is exempt, and shall furnish supporting documentation.

The Contractor will sign the completed Attachment 4 form as the “Procurement Originator,” which will also be signed by the 633 CES Engineering Flight Chief or Deputy Flight Chief, 633

CES/CEN. The form(s) will be kept in the project folder indefinitely.

1.9. ENVIRONMENTAL RESTORATION PROGRAM (ERP) REQUIREMENTS:

[Include only if work is in ERP area. Ensure drawings define IRP boundaries and well lo-cations] Appropriate, additional guidance will be provided if project impacts an ERP site.

1.9.1. Contaminated Soil and Free Product: Any material (soil) that is suspected of containing petroleum products shall be reported to the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representa-tive. If discovered, the Contractor shall mitigate any potential threat to the workers, public and environment. The area that will be disturbed under this contract has the potential to have free product migrate into and under the construction site. Comply with VR-680 and record the quantity of any fuel removed from [the line]. Contaminated soil and/or free product shall not be used for backfill or removed from the base without written approval from the Contracting Officer. Once removal is approved, Contractor shall dispose of material under guidance of the Hazardous Waste

Manager (633 CES/CEIE). All hazardous waste manifests shall be prepared by the Contractor and shall be coordinated, approved and signed by Hazardous Waste Manager (633 CES/CEIE) prior to removal of such waste from the base.

1.9.2. Site Safety: Site summaries from our Management Action Plan are furnished with this contract to familiarize personnel with the potential hazards associated with construction and dem-olition work at these sites. Ensure workers are informed of potential hazardous exposures from working at these sites, and that the appropriate precautions are followed to minimize hazards to human health and the environment. Personnel working at these sites shall have 40-hour

HAZWOPER Training. At least one individual on site should have completed the OSHA 8-hour supervisor training course. The plans identify the boundary of these IRP sites. To perform work at these sites, the Contractor must have a Health and Safety Plan and Hazardous Waste Disposal

Plan for proper disposal of all regulated materials generated during execution of this project.

1.9.3. Monitoring Wells: There may be several monitoring wells installed in and around the proposed construction area. Site maps and construction drawings provide the location of these wells. The Contractor shall take all precautions to prevent any damage to wells. If the wells and associated structures are damaged during the project, the Contractor shall repair/replace all dam-ages at no additional expense to the Federal Government. Contractor shall dispose of all regulated materials during repair of the damaged structures and remove any free product as required by

VDEQ regulations.

1.9.4. Additional Excavation: Prior to any excavation beyond the immediate area or boundary of the construction site, the Contractor shall coordinate with 633 CES/CEI and obtain the Con-tracting Officer’s approval.

1.10. SOIL SUPPORT PROGRAM (SSP) ACCEPTABILITY

The soils obtained from off-base sources shall meet the criteria outlined below. The soils gener-ated during construction project excavation will be collectively referred to as “soil media.” Soil media is not inherently waste-like, but it may contain waste-like materials, including contaminants associated with historical operations at the site. Given the base history of operations, the Contrac-tor must make a determination as to whether the soil media is contaminated. If soil media is determined to be contaminated, then a hazardous waste determination must be made. Standard test methods are described below. Contaminated soil media shall be managed as a solid waste and removed from base in accordance with applicable requirements for disposal of solid waste. If the soil media is determined to be uncontaminated and not waste-like, then it may be disposed on site in an environmentally sound manner or disposed of at an approved landfill.

1.10.1. Clean Soil. Projects requiring clean soil, including but not limited to topsoil and backfill materials, to be brought onto JBLE-Langley or relocated within base property must meet minimum standards based on results of physical (geotechnical) and chemical testing. All materials will meet geotechnical specifications appropriate for the type of project being accomplished and are typically identified elsewhere in the project specifications. The intent of this section is to prevent cross contamination (i.e. planned excavation) and define clean soil based on chemical/project specifica-tions. Soil contaminant levels shall be tested, with test procedures and results documented to en-sure that only the source(s) of topsoil and/or backfill deemed to have acceptable soil contaminant levels be utilized for current and future use. The Contractor shall implement a plan and confirm the proposed source(s) of clean topsoil and/or backfill (borrow source) meet the clean soil speci-fications for the project. The plan should incorporate borrow source information, sampling data, and testing results. As a minimum, the Contractor shall meet the following standards:

1.10.2. Borrow Source. The Contractor shall provide detailed borrow source information (e.g., location, owner, operator, past and current land use, previous chemical testing results) at the point of planned excavation to 633 CES/CEIE to determine chemical testing requirements. The Con-tractor shall also submit a certification stating the materials contain no asbestos, no gross contam-ination have been discerned by visual or olfactory observations, and no spills of a listed hazardous waste (40 CFR 261) have occurred at the borrow site. If previous chemical testing results exist and are provided, 633 CES/CEIE will evaluate those results to determine if they are sufficient and the proposed borrow soils meet clean soil requirements. If testing is incomplete, 633 CES/CEIE will review borrow source information to determine chemical sample requirements.

1.10.2.1. On-base Soil Sources. Unless otherwise provided in the contract, the Contractor shall bear all expenses of developing the source. For the site where soil is reclaimed from Federal

Government land, the Contractor may be required to perform final grade and seeding according to project requirements.

1.10.2.2. Excess Soil Work. Acceptable excess soil shall be delivered to the designated loca-tion(s) following approved haul routes. For the site where excess soil is deposited on Federal

Government land, the Contractor may be required to perform final grade and seeding according to project requirements.

1.10.3. Sample Plan. At least one composite sample (6-8 grabs) for each undisturbed borrow source would be taken from the original point of excavation and required for each 5,000 CY of soil. For soil taken from disturbed borrow sources, samples are required for each 1,000 CY of soil. The nature of the borrow source is to be considered when determining the quantity and depth of the samples. Additional samples may be required to adequately characterize the proposed bor-row source (i.e. laterally and vertically). The Contractor shall submit a Sample Plan (to include site map, excavation area, location and depth of samples) for 633 CES/CEIE review and approval.

1.10.4. Chemical Testing Standards. The analysis must be performed by an accredited or cer-tified laboratory approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the State of Virginia

(e.g., Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program [ELAP], Virginia Environmental Labor-atory Accreditation Program [VELAP]). Submit a copy of the chain of custody and complete validated report of analysis to 633 CES/CEIE for review and approval 30-days prior to use of any borrow soils. Chemical testing of any borrow source will include sampling for the following suite of contaminants (test requirements may be reduced based on borrow source information):

- Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) to include Gasoline Range Organics (GRO) and Die-sel Range Organics (DRO);

- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) [EPA method 8260B] to include Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylene (BTEX);

The soil support test suite shall also include unless generator knowledge suggests otherwise:

- Semi-volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) [EPA method 8270];

- Pesticides [EPA method 8081A];

- Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) [EPA method 8082]; and

- Target Analyte List (TAL) metals (including Mercury) [EPA method 6010B/7470A]

- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) [EPA Method 8260] other than BTEX compound reference in the preceding paragraph.

1.10.5. Clean Soil Determination. Soils testing under the EPA screening levels and/or base

“background” levels will be considered acceptable “clean” soil. Generally, acceptable clean soil must not exceed EPA Region III “Residential” Risk Based Concentrations (RBC) and the JBLE-
