Summary: Environmental Specification for CATM Range Servicing and Lead Cleaning
This is an environmental specification document (Section 01 57 19.18 30) issued by the United States Air Force for temporary environmental controls applicable exclusively to the CATM Range Lead Cleaning and Servicing Contract at Kadena Air Base, Japan. The specification establishes comprehensive environmental compliance requirements for contractors performing cleaning and servicing activities on the firing range, effective May 26, 2026, and superseding the previous version from June 7, 2021.
The specification mandates strict adherence to the Japan Environmental Governing Standards (JEGS), U.S. Federal regulations, Japanese government (GOJ) national and prefectural laws, and Air Force directives including DAFI 32-7001, AFI 32-1001, and DAFMAN 32-7002. Contractors must submit a 15-chapter Environmental Protection Plan (EPP) at least 14 days prior to commencing on-site work, covering environmental requirements and training, air emissions and ozone-depleting substances, water resources, hazardous materials, hazardous waste, solid waste, fuel storage tanks, historical and cultural resources, PCBs, pesticides, asbestos, lead and lead-contaminated materials, spill prevention and response, Environmental Management System compliance, and sustainable procurement. All work must designate an Environmental Manager responsible for compliance, and all personnel must complete Environmental Management System awareness training. The contractor bears full responsibility for environmental permit costs, fines, and violations. Specific waste management requirements include proper characterization, containerization, labeling, and disposal of lead-contaminated debris through GOJ-permitted facilities, with Copy E manifests required for hazardous waste disposal, and prohibition of discharge to sanitary sewers or storm drains without authorization. No separate payment is made for environmental work; all costs are included in the contract price, with final payment withheld until proof of lawful waste disposal and Environmental Flight sign-off on all bullet bucket debris are submitted.

SECTION 01 57 19.18 30 Page 7 of 44 disposed of at intermediate processing companies that disassemble and sort the various recyclable and non-recycling materials, then dispose of the constituent components as required by Japan industrial waste regulations. Items in this category include such as HVAC and refrigeration equipment with the Freon removed, ducting, ventilation fans, and other equipment.
(4) Surplus Soil
(a) Surplus soil is existing soil that is in excess of what is required for this work, including aggregates intended, but not used, for on-site mixing of concrete, mortars, and paving.

1.3.34. Wetlands
A) Wetlands are those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions.
1.4. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE DISPOSITION OF LBP-COATED METALS
1.4.1. Japan has no industrial waste law that explicitly forbids the recycling of metal that is coated with LBP or other regulated materials like cadmium or chromium, however, the lack of a prohibition does not validate the recycling of LBP-coated metal
SECTION 01 57 19.18 30 Page 8 of 44 as non-hazardous solid waste.
1.4.2. The lawful recycling of these materials relies upon waste generators and disposal firm’s strict compliance with the following requirements of the Japan Waste Management and
Cleansing Act:
(1) Waste generators are responsible to separate hazardous wastes from non-hazardous solid wastes and recyclables prior to entering into waste consignment contracts.
(2) Waste generators are responsible to accurately characterize wastes, particularly those that may contain hazardous constituents, and disclose the content to intermediate processing, recycling, and final disposal firms prior entering into waste consignment contracts.
(3) Waste consignment firms may accept only those wastes and chemical substances specifically authorized on their GOJ-issued Industrial Waste Permit.
1.4.3. Recycling Metal with Intact LBP:
A) For the lawful recycling of metal coated with LBP, the lead must be an acknowledged SCIW constituent being recycled for its value and not be a hidden constituent of the metal.
(1) Use Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or Inductively
Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis of chip samples of the paint to determine lead content. If AAS or
ICP-MS analyses were used to identify LBP during the initial site surveys, no further analyses shall be performed since these methods provide accurate lead concentration results needed for the purpose of waste characterization per Japan
Industrial Waste regulations.
(2) In cases where it may be impractical to abate paint from
LBP-coated or contaminated items due to item’s small size, structural complexity, or other reasons, Contractors may elect to leave LBP intact and recycle the entire item “as-is” at a facility holding a Specially Controlled Industrial
Waste (SCIW) permit that lists lead as an accepted recyclable material.
(a) Note that waste consignment firms holding General
Industrial Waste Permits that list scrap metal as an accepted item which is followed by the statement, “These, excluding Specially Controlled Industrial
Wastes” (Korera no uchi, Tokubetsu Kanri Sangyou
Haikibutsu wo nuku.), cannot, by law, accept LBP coated metal, and depend upon the generator to accurately disclose the constituents of the material is it selling for recycling.
(3) The contractor/waste generator shall follow legitimate
Quality Control (QC) procedures that accurately characterize all materials; and bears full responsibility for accurately notifying all waste consignment firms of the content of all wastes and recyclables generated on this contract.
1.4.4. Recycling Metal with LBP Completely Removed
A) Metals with all LBP removed may be recycled as any other
SECTION 01 57 19.18 30 Page 9 of 44 non-hazardous recyclable material at a facility with the proper GOJ permit.
1.4.5. Recycling Metal with LBP Partially Removed
A) In some cases, it may be impossible, or impractical, to completely remove all of the LBP. Conditions that may interfere with complete removal include, but are not limited to, metal with significant rust blemishes or bubbling, surface cracking or pitting, deep gouges, angled surfaces or confined areas between surfaces, and any other conditions.
B) To recycle metal with partially removed LBP at a recycling firm that holds only a General Industrial Waste Permit not authorized for Lead, the Contractor shall:
(1) Notify the recycler that complete removal of the LBP is not possible and seek the disposal firm’s inspection of the material prior to entering into a consignment contract.
(a) Provide the recycler with copies of the original LBP analysis results and the wipe sampling results taken from the areas where LBP has been removed.
(b) DO NOT provide a TCLP results of the removed paint, which is a separate waste stream. This does not apply to
LBP remaining on the metal and may confuse the recycler.
(b) Request the recycler’s representatives visit the work site and inspect the condition of the materials on-site during and/or after LBP removal to ensure the level of removal meets the recycler’s conditions for acceptance.
(2) If accepted by a non-SCIW recycling firm, prior to requesting a manifest inspection by Environmental
Representatives for transport of the materials, submit a letter to the Contracting Officer titled “Material
Acceptance Notification”, signed by the recycler’s
Operations Manager, with the following information:
(a) Name, address, and telephone number of the recycler.
(b) Name and title of the Operations Manager.
(c) Project/contract number and project title.
(d) Name, address, and telephone number of the waste generating contractor.
(e) A statement that the recycler understands that >0.3mg/l
LBP has been partially removed from the metal, and that based on an inspection of metal, that the recycler has determined that it is able to accept and recycle the metal “as-is” under the permit it possesses.
(f) Attach a copy of the recycler’s GOJ permit to the
Notification.
(g) A brief description of the metal, its dimensions, volume or weight.
(h) Signature of the recycler’s Operations manager and date.
(i) The seller’s company name, representative, and signature.
SECTION 01 57 19.18 30 Page 10 of 44
(3) The Material Acceptance Notification letter must be reviewed and approved prior to the Environmental Flight signing the manifest and authorizing the waste transport.
