Hanscom Air Force Base Contractor Hazardous Materials, Standard Operating Procedure

HAFB Contractor Hazardous Materials

Standard Operating Procedure

September 2020

66th CIVIL ENGINEERING DIVISION

HANSCOM AFB, MA 01731

OPR: 66 ABG/CEN

1. PURPOSE

To ensure that all hazardous materials (HAZMAT) brought onto Hanscom AFB are properly identified, evaluated, managed, tracked, and disposed of or removed upon completion of work.

2. SCOPE

This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) applies to all government contractors involved in the purchasing, handling, and tracking of HAZMAT on Hanscom AFB. A copy of this SOP is to be made available to any employee(s) whose job may require them to purchase, handle, or track HAZMAT, and a copy will be supplied to any employee upon request.

3. GOVERNANCE

3.1 Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Clause 52.223-3. Contractor will submit a list of HAZMAT required for the project to Contracting Officer Representative

(COR) as soon as possible, however, no later than 15 calendar days from the contract award date. The appropriate Safety Data Sheet (SDS) shall be submitted including any appropriate identification number, such as a National Stock

Number or Special Item Number. COR in conjunction with the Project Manager will coordinate with HAZMAT Program Manager the approval process of

Contractor’s HAZMAT.

Failure to submit the listing and associated SDS within that time may result in work delays non-reimbursable to the Contractor. If there is a change in the makeup of the materials previously submitted for the project making them inaccurate or incomplete, then the Contractor shall promptly notify the Project Manager of the change and immediately resubmit the list of materials for approval. Contractor will not be paid for claims related to work delays as a result of resubmission of material approval requests. Contractor is advised that no HAZMAT can be brought onto Hanscom AFB prior to obtaining materials approval. Contractor must allow a minimum of 10 business days from submission date of HAZMAT list to Project Manager for HAZMAT approval process to complete. Project

Manager is responsible for timely passing the request for list approval to

HAZMAT Program Manager or HAZMAT POC to ensure expeditious approval process.

The list of hazardous materials must be updated during performance of the contract and whenever the Contractor modifies quantities of approved materials, adds new material, or removes existing material as necessary for performance of the contract. Any modifications or additions to the list must be approved prior to material delivery to the site.

3.2 Air Force Manual (AFM) 32-7002, Environmental Compliance and Pollution

Prevention. The AFM 32-7002 provides the Installation Hazardous Materials

Management Program (HMMP) the authority to manage HAZMAT procurement and use, and to direct compliance with Environmental Safety and Occupational

Health (ESOH) requirements. IAW AFM 32-7002, all organizations that use

HAZMAT, including non-appropriated funds (NAF) activities, tenants, and contractors, participate in the HMMP. No one, to include government, contract, or military personnel, may bring a HAZMAT onto an installation, or use a

HAZMAT on an installation until they receive all required authorizations.

Once the HAZMAT approval process is complete, HAZMAT Program Manager shall provide the COR a list of approved HAZMAT and corresponding EESOH-

MIS Material Stock Number (MSN) necessary to track HAZMAT usage information as part of monthly invoicing. Contractor must submit monthly consumption data with invoices. Invoices shall not be approved for payment until

HAZMAT usage data is submitted and verified to be accurate by the HAZMAT

Program Manager. Any delays or deviations in reported or unreported usage must be rectified prior to approval of monthly invoices for payment. Before contract closeout and release of final payment, the COR shall contact Project Manager to ensure the

Contractor has fulfilled all contract HAZMAT requirements, including but not limited to removal of all unused HAZMAT from the installation.

3.2.1 Tracking and Reporting Contractors are required to complete and submit the Contractor HAZMAT Usage Tracking Form (Attachment A) with monthly invoicing. The Contractor must provide the following information: material used, material unit of issue, quantities, frequency of usage, location of use/storage, process description, and intended disposal. Each HAZMAT product should be tracked on a separate form.

This includes any material in a liquid, gel or semi solid state.

Contractor shall provide HAZMAT usage reports to the HAZMAT

Program Manager and Project Manager for the duration of the contract.

For any project with a Period of Performance (POP) of six months or less, a single report is required upon project completion and prior to issuing final payment. For any contract with a POP that exceeds six-months, HAZMAT reporting will be provided monthly.

3.3 DIVISION 1, GENERAL REQUIREMENTS, UFGS 01 57 19

TEMPORARY ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS. All HAZMAT to be used to complete projects on Hanscom AFB must be documented and tracked to meet Environmental Reporting requirements. Requests for HAZMAT approval should consider the installation’s regulatory compliance with waste, air, and water requirements. Some chemicals may be restricted from usage on the installation. HAZMAT users and contractors should consider the use of the least harmful chemical to humans and the environment. When a substitute chemical with less harmful properties than the one requested for use is available, the user/contractor may be directed to use that product instead. The user/contractor is further advised to seek an alternate substitute for products containing any of the following 17 toxic chemicals targeted by the EPA for reduction: Benzene; Cadmium; Carbon Tetrachloride;

Chloroform; Chromium; Cyanides; Dichloromethane; Lead; Mercury;

Methyl Ethyl Ketone; Methyl Isobutyl Ketone; Nickel;

Tetrachloroethylene; Toluene; 1,1,1-Trichoroethane; Trichloroethylene;

and Xylene.
