OSHA regulations govern all worker safety requirements and must be complied with at all times by contractors and subcontractors. These requirements are summarized in the Keesler Air Force Base Asbestos Operations and Management Plan.

1.30.1 The following steps are required by all personnel or contractors doing work on Keesler Air Force Base.

• If the personnel or contractor encounters what they think may be asbestos, they are required to stop and call the KAFB Asbestos Point of Contact (APOC) at the Keesler Environmental Section, which is Janet Lanier at 228-377-1262 or EMCS after hours.

• Once it is determined by the APOC that asbestos is present, the following actions described below are required (Only the APOC and Bioenvironmental are certified to make that determination).

NO ABATEMENT WORK IS TO BEGIN WITHOUT WRITTEN APPROVAL FROM THE APOC.

A Mississippi State certified asbestos abatement contractor must be used to conduct the abatement.

Please note that non-friable asbestos can easily be made friable and become regulated.

1.30.2 Before: The following documents must be submitted to the Asbestos POC and approved in writing before abatement can begin:

• 10 Day MDEQ notification and return acknowledgment letter

• Asbestos Hazard Abatement Plan (to be certified by a Mississippi Certified Management Planner and/or Certified Industrial Hygienist )

• Asbestos Work Plan (scope of work, removal procedures, worker protection, air monitoring, disposal location, containment procedures)

• MDEQ Asbestos Abatement Certification for the Company

• Supervisor’s qualifications and state certification

• CURRENT State Certifications (applications will not be accepted) for all individuals working on site

• Respirator fit tests for all individuals

• Physicals for all individuals

1.30.3 During: Once the submittals are approved in writing, the following actions are required.

• The contractor is required to set up their containment areas, negative air machine, and critical barriers and obtain approval from the Asbestos POC to begin work.

• The Asbestos POC routinely checks the abatement work to ensure that the containment area and critical barriers are secure, that the workers are wearing the appropriate personal protective equipment that the asbestos-containing material is being bagged appropriately, and that air monitoring is being conducted on the workers and outside the abatement area. This also includes reviewing the daily log maintained on site to assure that no uncertified individuals are performing abatement work.

• Upon completion of the abatement work, the contractor contacts the Asbestos POC to conduct a walk-through of the area and approve that all abatement has been completed and that the area has been cleaned of asbestos fibers. This action will require at least a 24-hour period. Please reference cleaning procedures in the Asbestos Management and Operations Plan.

• Air sampling results are required to be collected and submitted for approval by the Asbestos POC before the containment area, negative air machine, and critical barriers can be removed.

• All asbestos waste must be handled and disposed of in accordance with State law.

The Asbestos POC must review the waste prior to leaving the base and the manifest will be signed by a designated Keesler government representative. Contractors will not sign manifests for asbestos containing material (ACM).

1.30.4 After: After the abatement has been complete and approved by the Asbestos POC, the contractor shall submit the following items in a post-job submittal to be maintained in the Asbestos Abatement Files.

• Air sampling results

• Daily report logs

• Daily worker sign in/out sheets

• Waste manifest (Generator Copy)

The Asbestos POC and Environmental Section (BOS/CEV) are available at any time to provide asbestos awareness training and consultation to project managers, contractors and subcontractors prior to beginning the project.

1.31 REQUIRED LEAD-BASED PAINT MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES:

The purpose of these instructions is to provide guidance to safely remove or encapsulate lead-based paint without causing a hazard. All work must be performed in accordance with OSHA, MDEQ and any local regulations for all work and disposal. The regulations are divided into two parts; a) lead-based paint on non-child occupied/non-target housing buildings and b) child occupied/target housing buildings.

Appropriate OSHA worker protection is the responsibility of the employer. All projects will be monitored and inspected by BOS/CEV.

1.31.1 Non-child occupied/ commercial buildings.

• For non-child-occupied/commercial buildings, the minimum requirement for contractors is to protect workers IAW OSHA requirements, use poly lay-down to collect paint chips, and turn into BOS/CEV for disposal. At minimum the supervisor of the project should be LBP trained and supply proof of certification before work begins. The contractor shall notify BOS/CEV before start of any project. Contractor must place plastic on the ground sufficient to capture all loosened paint chips and control water run-off. Removal methods preferred at Keesler AFB are the use of an approved chemical stripper or wet sanding methods for better collection of LBP chips and waste. These processes minimize lead dust and allow for maximum collection of LBP chips.

• The contractor shall meet with BOS/CEV prior to beginning the project to discuss protective measures, best management practices (BMP’s), any landfill disposal, and maintenance of chips and their collection (until they are turned over to BOS/CEV).

• Any buildings with lead-based paint, if bead blasted to remove old paint, shall be supervised by a contractor with proper training. Bead blasting upon prior approval only (see preferred method above).

• The contractor, under OSHA rules, must comply with the lead based paint rules

(including notification to BOS/CEV, if the job is abatement), certify appropriate training, and maintain personal monitors on workers until it is demonstrated there is no airborne lead risk.

• BOS/CEV will inspect all projects involving Lead Based Paint removal and any required documentation must be provided to BOS/CEV prior to beginning work.

1.31.2 Child-occupied/target housing buildings

• Any child-occupied/target housing building older than 1978 must be painted using Lead Paint Protocol, including poly-lay-down, collection of paint chips, and the contractor must always have a minimum of lead hazard training for all workers. The contractor shall notify BOS/CEV before start of any project.

• A paint contractor must collect paint chips in their own clean buckets and have BOS/CEV dispose (if contract requires BOS/CEV dispose). Contractor must place plastic on the ground sufficient to capture all loosened paint chips and control water run-off.

• For work on child-occupied/target housing buildings falling under the Lead Paint Protocol, the contractor must use water or amended water when scraping or chipping. All members of the contractor’s work force must wear protective clothing and comply with all OSHA rules and regulations. OSHA regulation compliance is the employer’s responsibility and is subject to inspection by OSHA and the Base. Suggested PPE include foot protection (ex. Rubber Boots) worn while on the poly. All PPE shall be stored on the protective plastic when not in use and shall be decontaminated or disposed of in an approved manner. Minimum respiratory protection for any OSHA “trigger task” such as scraping, manual sanding, demolition, heat gun and power tool cleaning is a half-mask air purifying respirator (APR) with HEPA filter that is at least 99.97 percent efficient (i.e.

P100). APR fit tests evidence must be provided for inspection. Other circumstances may warrant higher protection. PPE determination is the responsibility of the contractor.

• The contractor shall meet with BOS/CEV prior to beginning the project to discuss protective measures, best management practices (BMPs), any landfill disposal, collection and storage of chips (until they are turned over to BOS/CEV, if contract specifies BOS/CEV dispose).

• Full abatements on “child occupied/target housing” buildings such as removal of paint to substrate, encapsulation, enclosure, removal and/or removal/replacement of components, or soil removal/covering require fully trained/certified companies, workers, and supervisors, as well as six (6) prior work-days notification to MDEQ. BOS/CEV must be provided copies of and verify the 6-day notice, all Mississippi state certifications, copies of medical examinations, and copies of respirator fit tests before beginning any job.

All required documentation must be provided to BOS/CEV prior to work beginning.
