STATEMENT OF WORK

Keswick Powerplant Asbestos Abatement & Floor Installation

Northern California Area Office, Bureau of Reclamation

1. BACKGROUND/PROJECT CONDITIONS

1.1. Background: The Keswick powerplant has four locations for asbestos abatement and new floor installation: Rooms 506, 508, 509, and the Security Room (entered from Room 509).

1.1.1. Phase 1: The powerplant floor is concrete. In Rooms 506, 508, and 509, the concrete floor is covered with vinyl tile and mastic adhesive that has tested positive for the presence of asbestos. This flooring tile, baseboards, and mastic must be removed. The

Security Room has residual asbestos in the mastic that’s beneath the carpeting. The baseboard and carpeting must be removed and disposed of, and the mastic on the concrete floor must be removed.

1.1.2. Phase 2: Once all existing flooring has been removed and the space has been cleared of asbestos, new vinyl composition tile (VCT, color: “classic white” or equivalent) suitable for high-traffic areas shall be installed in Room 506, 508, and 509; carpet tiles (color: “startled” or equivalent) shall be installed in the Security Room.

Approximately 600 feet of new vinyl baseboard shall also be installed.

1.2. Access. Government personnel will remove existing furniture that doesn’t impact facility operations from all flooring surfaces prior to Contractor’s work. Contractor to verify from plans and at pre-construction site visit.

1.3. Testing. All flooring has not been tested for asbestos or other contaminants. Contractor shall assume that all flooring and adhesive material subject to this work contains asbestos.

2. SCOPE OF WORK

2.1. Contractor shall

2.1.1. Prevent contamination from dust and debris generated by flooring removal activities by providing containment:

• immediately around the work area

• for all fire alarm devices

• for all HVAC vents or grates such that contaminated air does not enter the

HVAC equipment

• for all stationary furniture and equipment that cannot be removed from the work area o Some of the stationary equipment contains circulation fans which need to be protected from distributing any dust generated by the asbestos removal process.

o Room 509 contains high voltage electrical equipment. This equipment must be contained such that no moisture enters the equipment. Extreme caution must be taken when using fluids to remove asbestos-containing material in this area.

2.1.2. Stage the asbestos removal process in Room 509 such that portions of the room are accessible for Government workers to pass through to Room 512.

2.1.3. Remove contaminated and potentially contaminated material from surfaces designated by the government. The approximate floor surface areas are as follows, but must be confirmed prior to bid:

Location Area (ft2)

Room 506 110

Room 508 230

Room 509 2,140

Security Room 760

The surfaces are mostly accessible. There is ancillary equipment that may prevent direct access to some surfaces where flooring is to be removed. Contractor to verify from plans and at pre-construction site visit. Appendix A Asbestos Abatement and

Reflooring shows the approximate areas where flooring will be removed.

2.1.4. Employ asbestos material removal techniques that avoid unduly damaging the underlying building material.

2.1.5. Remove all asbestos containing materials within a full containment under negative air pressure of at least negative 0.020 inches of water. All removed materials and debris generated during removal (including but not limited to carpet) shall be properly packaged and labeled.

2.1.6. Properly encapsulate asbestos-containing surfaces that cannot be completely removed due to existing ancillary equipment.

2.1.7. Properly dispose of all removed materials in the Government-provided Hazardous

Waste Containers.

• The Government shall be responsible for the disposal of the waste placed in the

Hazardous Waste Containers.

2.1.8. After material removal, clean all surfaces inside the containment area to remove all particulate matter.

2.1.9. Provide an air-monitoring specialist (AMS) certified by EPA and California

Department of Safety and Health (DOSH) to conduct a final visual inspection and clearance air monitoring at the conclusion of abatement activities in each work area.

The Contractor shall contact the AMS a minimum of 24 hours prior to applying encapsulant for a visual inspection. Clearance air monitoring will be completed within 48 hours after the visual inspection and application of encapsulant. In the event that the AMS arrives on-site at the request of the Contractor and the area is identified to require additional cleaning or that the encapsulant requires additional drying time, the cost of the additional time required for the AMS will be the contractor’s responsibility. A minimum of 5 samples and 2 blanks will be collected from each work area and will be analyzed by phase-contrast microscopy (PCM). A copy of the Air Clearance shall be provided to the COR.

• The project is considered complete if all samples collected are less than 0.01 f/cc using the NIOSH 7400 method.

2.1.10. Properly prepare the space for installation of VCT (Rooms 506, 508, and 509), carpeting (Security Room only), and vinyl baseboard throughout each room and complete the installation.
