Attachment_4_EnvironmentalProtection.pdf

This document is an Environmental Protection Guidelines document for contractors working on ship projects at the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility, revised in September 2019. The guidelines provide comprehensive environmental compliance requirements for contractors, covering areas such as waste management, hazardous materials handling, clean water and air regulations, spill prevention, and recycling procedures.

Key requirements include maintaining detailed environmental management practices, properly handling and disposing of waste streams, implementing spill prevention measures, complying with federal and state environmental regulations, and following specific protocols for activities like painting, sandblasting, and equipment maintenance. Contractors must designate an Environmental Manager (EM) with at least 5 years of environmental experience, submit environmental plans within 45 days of contract award, attend environmental briefings, and follow strict guidelines for managing materials like lead paints, refrigerants, PCBs, and other potentially harmful substances. The document emphasizes the Navy's commitment to environmental protection and requires contractors to take proactive measures to prevent environmental damage during ship project operations.
