Event Scope and deliverables, include number of resources engaged in project, timeline of project (major milestones)

We are currently about halfway complete on a three (3) year nearly $1 billion project involving the expansion of the Phoenix Metro Light Rail Project. This is an 11-mile extension of the current Light Rail System. Kiewit is an $8 billion annual sales contractor. They hired us after a very lengthy vetting process. They needed to certain that the asbestos abatement contractor they hired would meet their rigorous schedule. We are removing the asbestos cement pipe buried in the roadways that will now serve as the platform for the Light Rail System.

List job positions provided and technologies utilized to supplement services.

We are using an Estimator, Project Management, and Contractor/Supervisors for this ongoing project.

This project involves an 11 mile stretch of roadway converted to a Light Rail surface. The negotiations for our work took several months due to the difficultly in creating a pricing structure that was fair and reflected the timeliness of each day’s work. We are basically on call 24/7 to facilitate the removal of asbestos cement pipe from the ground before other trades can perform their work. On a day-to-day basis the work may only be 2 linear feet or 100 linear feet. Even at 2 linear feet, our work is critical to the overall success of the project. We have to be on time each day to keep the scheduling of other contractors in line.

Part B

Asbestos, Lead, and Mold Abatement Services (SOW 2B)

Question 1- Please describe your approach to performing OSHA Class 3 work.

OSHA Class 3 asbestos work for the repair and maintenance operations, where “ACM”, including TSI and surfacing ACM and PACM, is likely to be disturbed, and for which no negative exposure assessment is available, shall be conducted using engineering and work practice controls which minimize the exposure to employees performing the asbestos work and to bystander employees.

In many cases the work will be conducted in mini containments with proper signage. In some cases, like small TSI runs a glove bag method would be used. The area would have restricted access to persons not involved in the work. We will always use a small negative air machine when possible. If the containment is likely to collapse due to negative pressure, we would use the HEPA vacuum to create negative pressure. HEPA vacuums and wet wiping methods would be used to control dust and debris. Workers would be suited and use at a minimum a half-face respirator.

Most Class 3 work would be performed by hand methods. Rarely would power mechanical methods be used.

Waste would be placed in marked asbestos bags and disposed at an EPA approved landfill.

When the work is complete the area outside the mini containment or glove bag would be detailed cleaned with HEPA vacuum and wet wipe methods.

Question 2 Provide a narrative response that describes your organization’s overall method of approach and implementation plan to provide all services sought under this solicitation.

Method of Approach Objectives

We have the knowledge and ability to provide for the removal, management, and disposal of asbestos and/or lead and /or mold materials at various sites throughout the state using sophisticated procedures including isolation of building HVAC system; evacuation of the space; and stringent containment, decontamination, and disposal. At times, we may need to assist the Using Agency in meetings and

Department of Environmental Quality negotiations with regulators, property owners, potential responsible parties, and other interested parties, including the general public. We will adhere to all Federal, State, County, or Local rules and regulations and any revisions which govern the services required under this contract.

We maintain all applicable regulations onsite when work is being accomplished.

If required, we will submit the application for NESHAP 10-day permit. We will meet with the Using Agency, the Asbestos/Lead Consultant to review the schedule of work and specify special needs. We will assign a Contractor/Supervisor who shall be on-site for the duration of the project, and act as our authorized representative. All individuals performing work under this contract will possess current AHERA Contractor/Supervisor, AHERA worker, EPA Lead Supervisor and EPA Lead worker certification.

We will maintain all current certifications of all required training on site when work is being performed.

All employees will have current medical examinations.

Project Management We will provide services in support of abatement activities at various Using Agency’s facilities which may pose a liability to the State of Arizona. These services will include but are not necessarily limited to initial response and abatement actions to minimize the threat to public health, safety, and the environment of the facilities or properties to prevent further contamination. When we are retained to perform work under the project management of an Asbestos, Lead, or Mold the Consultant will be the primary contact for the project unless otherwise specified.

We will provide any or all the contract services as stipulated by the task assignments issued by the Using Agency for the specific project. Such services shall be provided in a manner specified or approved by the State of Arizona to the satisfaction of the Using Agency. We will supply the personnel, materials, and equipment required in performance of these services.

Abatement Project Request We will visit the project site, to adequately determine the physical conditions of the site, availability of water and utilities, accessibility, storage and handling of equipment and materials, and any other factors that may affect our performance. We will determine the location, character, and quantities of asbestos / lead containing materials (ACM/LCM) and mold as well as the location, character, and quantities of other surface and subsurface materials or obstacles that will be encountered. This information shall be determined by visual and physical observations of the site and shall include exploratory work performed by the Using Agency or the Consultant as well as information obtained in the performance of the work.

We will use specific information provided by the Using Agency to verify the scope of work. This may include drawings, maps, lab test results, and any other information to fully understand the work. Which may include requirements for cleaning and removal of furnishings, carpet, electrical fixtures, and non-movable objects.

Known hazards associated with the project such as hot/cold pipes, surfaces, confined space entry, chemical, electrical, and physical hazards that may be present shall be identified by the contractor.

We will confirm the availability of water, power, drains, and space for setting up work stations, supplies and waste containers.

We will provide a time schedule with milestone requirements for the project.

Walk-through conference with the Abatement Contractor prior to implementation of the project.

We will consider any specific requirements or work procedures developed by the Consultant and the required steps necessary to comply with those requirements.

Abatement Project We will report directly to the Using Agency Project Manager, Project Coordinator, or the Asbestos/Lead Consultant as directed by the Using Agency.

We will provide a written estimate based upon a firm; fixed prices stated in this contract for each Project Scope of Work. Once the estimate has been finalized, the total guaranteed not-to-exceed, firm, fixed price shall govern the overall project and the Using Agency shall not be obligated to honor any additional estimates or amendments to the project without a fully executed change order to the Scope of Work.

We will complete all work within the stipulated time frame as outlined by the estimate.

The Using Agency Representative shall have full and final authority for, but not limited to the following:

• Review and approval of work schedules.

• Determination of project completion.

• Approval of clean-up procedures.
