1.14 ASBESTOS
All asbestos abatement and demolition projects require SCDHEC notification and/or permit prior to start of work. CEIE shall be provided a copy of the project permit prior to project commencement.
1. The requirements of SCDHEC Regulation 61- 86.1, "Standards of Performance for Asbestos Projects", shall apply for any owner/operator, building inspector, management planner, project designer, contractor, asbestos abatement entity, consultant, air sampler, commercial labor provider, supervisor or worker involved in the inspection, in-place management, design, removal, encapsulation, enclosure, renovation, repair, demolition or any other disturbance of regulated asbestos containing material (RACM).
2. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has rules for workers affected by asbestos containing materials (ACM). 29 CFR 1926.1101, "Occupational Exposure to Asbestos", requires compliance by all contractors and facility owners and includes specific work practices, respiratory protection, and asbestos training requirements, even for activities involving only non-friable ACM.
3. Written notification must be submitted to SCDHEC prior to demolition even it there is no asbestos present. Written notification must be submitted at least 10 working days before demolition begins. The notification must include certain required items of information about the owner, the contractor, the facility and the demolition. A copy of the building inspector's report must accompany the notification of demolition.
4. Demolition is wrecking or taking out any load-supporting structural member of a facility and any related handling operations. Intentional burning of a facility is also demolition. An operation, which does not include wrecking, or taking out a load-supporting structural member is a renovation, to which additional requirements apply.
5. Renovation means altering a facility or one or more facility components in any way, including the stripping or removal of RACM from a facility component. "Remodeling" is also renovation.
6. Renovation and demolition of most facilities, including buildings, structures, and other installations, are subject to State and Federal asbestos regulations. The facility owner and the renovation or demolition contractor are responsible for ensuring compliance with these regulations.
7. Written notification must be submitted to SCDHEC before the asbestos removal project begins (up to ten working days in advance, depending on the amount of asbestos to be removed). The notification must include certain required items of information about the owner, the contractor, the facility and the asbestos removal project. SCDHEC may request that a copy of the building inspector's report accompany the notification of demolition.
8.
9. Before a facility or a portion of a facility is renovated or demolished the owner/operator of the renovation or demolition activity must ensure that the facility or portion of the facility being renovated or demolished has been thoroughly inspected for the presence of asbestos. A person who has been trained and licensed as an asbestos building inspector or management planner in accordance with State training and licensing requirements must perform the inspection.
10. A legible copy of the building inspection report must be provided to the SCDHEC prior to each demolition, and upon request for renovations.
11. A building inspection report will only be acceptable to SCDHEC if performed within three years prior to the demolition. If an inspection report is greater than three years in age, then it must be confirmed and verified by a licensed building inspector or management planner.
12. SCDHEC requires that a building inspector and or management planner provide an assessment of all materials suspected to contain asbestos, including an evaluation to the materials current condition and potential for disturbance. SCDHEC requires a building inspector or management planner who has performed and an inspection to prepare a report detailing the findings of the inspection. The inspection report shall include the date of inspection and the name, license number, and signature of the licensed building inspector or management planner who performed the inspection and completed the report. In addition, the report must include the following information specified in 40 CFR 763 Subpart E, Asbestos Containing Material in Schools:
a. An inventory of the locations of the homogenous areas where samples were collected.
b. Exact location of where the samples were collected.
c. If applicable, information on homogenous areas where friable suspect ACM was assumed to be ACM.
d. A description of the manner used to determine sampling locations.
e. Name and signature of each licensed building inspector or management planner that collected samples.
f. Identification of each homogenous area as either surfacing material, thermal insulation or miscellaneous material.
13. In performing inspections, SCDHEC requires a building inspector and/or management planner follow specific sampling procedures. According to SCDHEC Regulation 61.86.1, a building inspector and or management planner shall comply with the procedures specified in 40 CFR 763 in determining sample locations and the number of representative samples to be collected. An inspection shall include samples from suspect friable and non-friable ACM on interior and exterior portions of a facility or its facility components.
14. Suspect ACM is divided into three categories: surfacing materials, thermal system insulation and miscellaneous. 40 CFR 763 contains sampling procedures specific to each category of material.
15. At no time will negative assumptions about a suspect material's asbestos content be acceptable. There are only two acceptable options: 1) Positive assumptions of suspect materials or 2) Sampling of suspect materials.
16. A homogenous area is considered not to contain ACM only if the results of all samples required to be collected form the area are less than one percent asbestos.
17. If friable ACM (for example, pipe insulation or drywall) is present, it must be removed prior to being disturbed during renovation or demolition activities. Removal (abatement) must be performed by trained, licensed persons using procedures detailed in State and Federal regulations.
18. A project design shall be prepared for each asbestos abatement project involving the abatement of greater than 300 square feet, 1,500 linear feet and/or 656 cubic feet of performed in a facility to be reoccupied. A person licensed by SCDHEC as an asbestos project designer must prepare such designs.
19. During renovations, removal of non-friable materials (for example, vinyl asbestos floor tiles and sheet flooring, mastics, asphalted roofing and asbestos cement siding and roofing tiles) may be regulated. Applicability is dependent upon the removal method to be used.
20. Prior to any demolitions, non-friable cement products (for example, transite siding, exterior siding and roofing shingles) must be removed before demolition. Asbestos containing sheet flooring and floor tiles, as well as asphalted roofing products, need not be removed if they are in good condition and have not become brittle and are not peeling, cracking, or crumbling.
Otherwise, they must also be removed before demolition. If it can be anticipated that non-friable materials will be ground, crumbled, .or pulverized, the removal is subject to the same rules as removal of friable materials. The amount of any non-friable asbestos that will remain in place during demolition must also be indicated on the written notification form.
21. Use of destructive methods to remove asbestos containing flooring materials renders them friable.
22. Grinding, sanding, or chipping mastic off the floor renders the mastic friable. Asbestos-containing mastic can be removed using citrus-based cleaners. Solvent-contaminated residues are subject to Hazardous Waste Management Regulations if they have a flash point of 140 degrees F. Petroleum based solvents are generally not recommended because they may contain components which cause wastes to be categorized as hazardous wastes, regardless of flash point.
23. Do not burn any asbestos containing or asbestos contaminated materials.
24. If demolition is reported on the same notification form as asbestos removal, all required information about the demolition must be included. If demolition data are not included when notification for removal is submitted, the removal is considered a renovation.
25. Materials should be taken to a landfill as soon as possible but may be stored temporarily in a secure area subject to SCDHEC approval. Transport the materials so as to prevent them form leaking, spilling, or blowing off the vehicle.
26. You should contact the landfill directly to make sure it will accept the material. You must obtain written approval from SDCHEC in advance for the disposal. You can get this approval by writing to the following:
SCHEC
Attn: Bureau of Air Quality, Asbestos Section 2600 Bull St.
Columbia, SC 29201
27. Be sure to include the following: (1) the address where the material is to be removed, (2) a brief description of the content (cement tiles, asphalted shingles, etc.), (3) the volume 0 waste in cubic yards agreed to accept the waste.
28. The removal of asbestos containing materials, such as transite pipe, is subject to the guidelines set forth in South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) Regulation 61-86.1 "Standards of Performance for Asbestos Projects" and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1926.1101 "Occupational Exposure to Asbestos".
29. Keep the material wet at all times during removal to minimize potential fiber release. Note: The use of water is only a control measure and by no means prevents a material from becoming friable.
30. SCDHEC Regulation 61-86.1 requires that containers (bags, drums, wrapped bundles) holding asbestos waste must be labeled with the following: DANGER -
CONTAINS ASBESTOS FIBERS -AVOID CREATING DUST -CANCER AND LUNG DISEASE
HAZARD.
31. Waste should be taken to a landfill as soon as possible but may be stored temporarily in a secure area. Transport materials in a way that keeps them from leaking, spilling or blowing off the transporting vehicle. SCDHEC Regulation 61- 86.1 require a written waste disposal authorization request prior to taking waste to a landfill.
32. JB CHS-AB 628 CES/CEIE requires that all renovation, demolition and asbestos abatement project documentation be submitted for review prior to start of work. This documentation includes but not limited too: I) renovation, demolition, abatement application; 2) project licenses; 3) personnel licensing, medical statement, training records, respirator fit test and 4) project work plan.
33. In addition, a copy of all asbestos abatement air sampling (personal, area and clearance) and asbestos waste disposal documentation shall be provided to CES/CEI.
34. All JB CHS-AB facilities and projects are subject to Environmental Compliance Assessment and Management Program (ECAMP), either internal or external audits, per Air Force Instruction (AFI) 32-7045.
Transite Pipe:
1. JB CHS-AB historically has a presence of in-service and abandoned asbestos transite sewer and water pipe which as built drawings do not always correctly identify the locations.
2. The removal of asbestos containing materials, such as transite pipe, is subject to the guidelines set forth in South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) Regulation 61-86.t "Standards of Performance for Asbestos Projects" and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1.926.1101 "Occupational Exposure to Asbestos".
3. The Contractor will immediately notify 628 CES/CEIE (963-1483) whenever transite pipe is encountered during any renovation or demolition project. JB CHS-AB will coordinate SCDHEC notification and removal procedures approval.
4. Transite pipe, which has not been rendered friable during renovation or demolition, shall be considered a non-regulated asbestos abatement project.
SCDHEC Regulation 61-86.1 provides disposal guidance of non-regulated asbestos removal projects. However, all guidelines of OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1101 shall be met.
5. Keep the material wet at all times during removal to minimize potential fiber release. Note: The use of water is only a control measure and by no means prevents a material from becoming friable.
6. Avoid breaking, chipping, sawing or grinding transite pipe. These actions create new surfaces where there is the greatest potential for release of asbestos fibers.
7. Do not throw or drop transite pipe when removing or transporting.
8. It is anticipated that a minor amount of transite pipe will be generated.
All removed transite pipe will be double-wrapped in 6 mil polyethylene, taped at all seams and each end and disposed of in accordance with SCDHEC Regulation 61- 86.1.
9. SCDHEC Regulation 61-86.1 requires that containers (bags, drums, wrapped bundles) holding asbestos waste must be labeled with the following: DANGER -
CONTAINS ASBESTOS FIBERS -AVOID CREATING DUST -CANCER AND LUNG DISEASE
HAZARD.
10. Waste should be taken to a landfill as soon as possible but may be stored temporarily in a secure area. Transport materials in a way that keeps them from leaking, spilling or blowing off the transporting vehicle. SCDHEC Regulation 61- 86.1 requires a written waste disposal authorization request prior to taking waste to a landfill.
11. Contact the landfill directly to make sure it will accept the material.
Obtain written approval for disposal from SCDHEC by writing to:
12. Include the address where the material where the material is to be removed, a brief description, the amount in linear feet and the name and location of the landfill to be used. In return, SCDHEC will respond with a disposal authorization letter.
13. Note: Please remember to include your name, return address and phone number.
14. Transite pipe is usually considered non-friable under normal service conditions. However, even non-friable materials can become friable if they are crumbled, pulverized or reduced to power by the forces, which act on them during renovation or demolition operations. If such materials are likely to be rendered friable, the removal immediately becomes subject to rules of SCDHEC 61-86.1 for friable asbestos removal, including training, licensing, notification, and work practices.
15. In the event transite pipe removal becomes friable, the Contractor shall immediately stop work and notify 628 CES/CEIE (963-1483). 628 CES/CEIE will in turn notify SCDHEC of the situation and removal/cleanup procedures.
16. Prior to starting any asbestos related work, contractor shall provide copies of current asbestos worker and asbestos supervisor licenses, or a company asbestos operations and maintenance (O&M) license. Contractor shall properly notify DHEC of regulated asbestos work in accordance with SCR 61- 86.1, and shall provide the contracting officer and the Charleston AFB (JB CHS-AB) Installation Management Flight office a copy of contractor notification to DHEC.

< 5 ppm Total Lead
Dispose of all LBP debris as Hazardous Waste
TCLP - Lead/Heavy Metals (multiple, random samples)
Total Lead
< 5 ppm TCLP Lead
LBP debris (as a minimum) is required to be disposed of at a licensed, Subtitle D landfill and if it is deemed a hazardous waste, it is required to be processed as hazardous waste. Testing required for disposal should be Total Metals and TCLP Metals, as landfills will generally require both testing results.
1.16 MONITORING WELLS
If there are any groundwater monitoring wells located in the vicinity of the project, every effort should be made to ensure these wells are not damaged or destroyed. If these wells are damaged or destroyed,963-2701, must be notified so that the contractor can, at their expense, properly abandon and replace the well(s) using a SCDHEC certified well driller.
1.17 INSTALLATION RESTORATION PROGRAM (IRP) SITES
If the worksite is in an Installation Restoration Program (IRP) investigation area, it may be necessary to contain excavated soil and groundwater, including dewatering fluids, for potential processing as hazardous waste.
Contact 963-2701 with details concerning the worksite location. Normal handling methods for potentially hazardous soils and groundwater, including dewatering fluids, include removal under controlled conditions (utilize proper personal protective equipment), storage out of the weather (55-gallon drums, plastic-lined roll-off containers, or frac tanks), composite sampling/analysis from each roll-off container and frac tank, or one composite sample per 5 drums, and proper disposal with 628 CES/CEIE (843)963- 2727) approval.
All hazardous waste generated within an IRP site shall be handled and disposed of at the projects expense in accordance with federal, state and Air Force regulations, with coordination of 628 CES/CEIE (963-2727) for manifest signatures. The contractor must also provide a completed Joint Base Charleston Air Base “Contractor Waste Stream Characterization Process Document” (WSCPD) with copies of analytical testing results to the base Installation Management Flight (963-2727). The WSCPD must be provided well in advance of shipment to allow time for review and concurrence by 628 CES/CEIE. The WSCPD identifies the source and composition of the waste.
1.18 NATURAL RESOURCES
If the project involves removal of trees, shrubbery or landscaping, a mitigation plan must be generated that will replace the trees etc. in-kind.
In other words if a project will take down ten 2-inch trees, then the mitigation plan should replace those trees with ten 2-inch replacement trees (hardwoods preferred). However, if replacing larger trees, the replacement becomes cost prohibitive and therefore larger trees should be replaced with a greater number of smaller trees. For instance, a 30-inch oak could be replaced with ten 3-inch oaks, fifteen 2-inch oaks, etc. The project should be designed to keep larger trees as is and should ensure that specific plans are in place to prevent damage to those trees during the demolition/construction process. A physical barrier should be constructed at the drip line of trees that are to be preserved to prevent damage to limbs and root systems.
If a project is sited near or may affect wetland areas CES/CEIE must be consulted prior to work to ensure permitting requirements are addressed.
Wetland boundaries have been clearly marked with signs, however, if there is any doubt please contact the Asset Management office.
1.19 CULTURAL RESOURCES
If items that may be of historical or archaeological significance are discovered or excavated during the course of work, work in the immediate area will be stopped and the procedures outlined in the Cultural Resource Management plan will be implemented. The contracting officer will notify the 628 CES/CEIE Installation Management Office (764-7335) who will investigate the site and inform the contracting officer when it is acceptable for the Contractor to resume work. All items discovered will be considered to be the property of the government.
1.20 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (EMS)
JB CHS-AB has implemented an Environmental Management System (EMS); in order to become more fully aware of the adverse environmental impact of our facility and our activities with the focus on reducing or eliminating those impacts, to reduce the amount and cost of resources by eliminating wasteful practices, and to comply with Executive Order 13423. ISO 14001 is the framework on which JB CHS-AB choose to base the EMS. Currently, JB CHS-AB’s significant environmental aspects are Energy & Water Consumption/Conservation and Fuel Consumption/Conservation in Vehicles. If a supplier or contractor is supplying goods or services associated with our significant environmental aspects, it is our expectation that the supplier or contractor take action to implement applicable procedures to mitigate, minimize, or otherwise control the potential environmental impacts associated with those significant environmental aspects.
