About this file
This document is a detailed technical specification (Attachment 7) for Lead Supplement (02 83 00.00 30) focused on lead-based paint (LBP) remediation procedures for the 18th Wing at a military installation. The specification provides comprehensive requirements for safely removing lead-based paint, including detailed protocols for worker safety, environmental protection, waste disposal, and compliance with federal and Japanese environmental regulations. Key requirements include developing a Lead Hazard Abatement Plan (LHAP), using certified personnel, implementing strict protective measures, conducting air and wipe sampling, and ensuring proper waste classification and disposal.
The specification mandates extensive documentation and compliance, including worker training certifications, medical examinations, respiratory protection programs, and use of specialized equipment like HEPA filters and protective clothing. Contractors must follow rigorous procedures for containment, removal, and decontamination, with specific requirements for indoor and outdoor paint removal. The waste disposal process involves characterizing lead waste using Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP), properly labeling and bagging contaminated materials, and disposing of waste through certified facilities while maintaining detailed documentation for Japanese and federal regulatory compliance.

3.5. CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
3.5.1. Cleanup
Maintain surfaces of the lead control area free of accumulations of paint chips and dust. Restrict the spread of dust and debris; keep waste from being distributed over the work area. Do not dry sweep or use compressed air to clean up the area. At the end of each shift and when the paint removal operation has been completed, clean the area of visible lead paint contamination by vacuuming with a HEPA filtered vacuum cleaner, wet mopping the area and wet wiping the area as indicated by the CP. Reclean areas showing dust or residual paint chips or debris. After visible dust, chips and debris is removed, wet wipe and HEPA vacuum all surfaces in the work area. If adjacent areas become contaminated at any time during the work, clean, visually inspect, and then wipe sample all contaminated areas. The CP shall then certify in writing that the area has been cleaned of lead contamination before restarting work.
3.5.1.1. Clearance Certification
The CP shall certify in writing that air samples collected outside the lead control area during paint removal operations are less than 30 micrograms per cubic meter of air; the respiratory protection used for the employees was adequate; the work procedures were performed in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.62 and 40 CFR 745; and that there were no visible accumulations of material and dust containing lead left in the work site. Do not remove the lead control area or roped off boundary and warning signs prior to the Contracting Officer's acknowledgement of receipt of the CP certification.
3.5.2. Disposal
a. Collect and double bag all lead-contaminated waste, scrap, debris, bags, containers, equipment, and PPE that may produce airborne concentrations of lead particles and label in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.62 and JEGS. Dispose of bagged waste material at a commercial hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility that is certified by the prefecture to receive the class of waste according to its JEGS designation based on the results of the TCLP laboratory analysis.
i. LBP waste characterized as greater than 0.3mg/l shall be treated as Specially Controlled Industrial Waste (SCIW) and labeled with a bilingual warning label in accordance with JEGS.
b. At least 5-days prior to the scheduled pick-up day, request a representative of the 718 CES Environmental Office’s (634-2600) perform an on-site inspection of the waste and the Hazardous Waste Manifest form immediately prior to transportation of the waste from on-base to off-base for disposal.

3.5.2.1. Disposal Documentation
All companies transporting or disposing of the asbestos waste shall provide a copy of the prefecture-issued hazardous waste certification for submission in the LHAP prior to the work.
Within 60 days of the date of waste pick-up, submit to the COR Copy E of the Japanese Hazardous Waste Manifest that has been signed and dated by all transporters, transshipment agents, and the final disposal facility.
If the abated lead waste component was characterized as not being SCIW based on the TCLP results and JEGS, dispose of as non-hazardous solid waste and provide turn-in documents or weight tickets for non-hazardous solid waste disposal.
3.5.3. Payment for Hazardous Waste
Payment for disposal of hazardous waste will not be made until a signed and stamped Copy E of the Japanese Hazardous Waste Manifest from the treatment or disposal facility certifying the amount of lead-containing materials or non-hazardous waste delivered has been submitted and approved by the COR.
