Draft PWS Hazardous Materials Removal Sao Tome.pdf

This Draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) details a hazardous materials removal and off-island disposal project for the United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM) at the São Tomé Transmitting Station. The primary objectives include identifying, collecting, containerizing, transporting, and disposing of hazardous materials and contaminated soils from multiple areas of concern identified in a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, including diesel spill storage tanks, burn pits, firefighting training zones, and storage areas for paints, oils, pesticides, and batteries.

The project requires the contractor to conduct an initial site assessment, develop a Hazardous Waste Management Plan, safely collect and package hazardous materials, arrange for off-island transportation to Gabon (the identified disposal country), and ensure compliance with international regulations. Key deliverables include a Mobilization Plan (due within 10 days of award), HWMP & Health and Safety Plan (within 15 days), Waste Manifest & Export Documentation (prior to export), and a Final Cleanup Report (within 30 days of demobilization). Special considerations emphasize maintaining a Health, Safety, and Environmental Plan, using licensed waste transporters, and coordinating with local São Tomé authorities and customs.
