ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (EMS)

(POC: Mr. Roger Suiter, 2 CES/CEIEC, 456-4694)

The contractor shall at a minimum complete EMS Awareness Training prior to beginning any work on the installation. The training is in the form of power point presentation at the contracting office. The contractor shall also ensure that all personnel are aware of Barksdale AFB EMS

Policy which is:

At Barksdale Air Force Base, protecting the environment is one of our highest priorities and will be a major factor in decision-making. We are dedicated to continual improvement of our processes to prevent and reduce waste generation. We are committed to compliance with environmental laws and other requirements while reducing pollution at the source of generation.

The framework for setting and reviewing environmental objectives and targets includes considering significant environmental aspects and other factors most important to the base.

Progress on these objectives and targets will be reviewed and briefed to the ESOH Council at least annually. In all our activities we will seek to:

a. Promote the conservation and sustainable use of natural and manmade materials.

b. Prevent environmental pollution and waste.

c. Build environmental information into all levels of management to ensure environmental compliance.

d. Achieve continual improvements in environmental performance and maintain compliance with all federal, state and local regulations.

e. Work in partnership with all stakeholders to promote good stewardship with base personnel, contractors, the community, and regulatory agencies.

The contractor shall also ensure that personnel understand that all base activities were scored and those that scored highest were considered to be critical and identified as “significant aspects”.

Currently, there is one and that is POL Management. With this in mind, contractors should take particular care in activities that could impact this area.

(POC: Mr. Alfredo Garza, 2 CES/CEIEC, 456-5293)

Solid Waste Landfills

There are NO permitted landfills on base; any reference to disposal at a landfill means an approved off-base landfill. All leaves, branches and limbs shall be removed from the base and disposed of at a state approved composting facility. At no time will yard waste be mixed with other types of waste generated by the contractor. The contractor shall provide the government a copy of the disposal ticket within five days of the end of the month. ABSOLUTELY NO

DUMPING OF ANY KIND WILL BE PERMITTED ON BARKSDALE AIR

FORCE BASE!!!

Construction and Demolition Debris

Construction and Demolition (C&D) debris is generated as a result of construction, renovation, or demolition activities. Although C&D debris is usually considered a single waste stream, the composition actually varies with each activity and the type, size, and location of the structures involved. Disposing of C&D debris in landfills consumes enormous amounts of space and is both economically and environmentally costly. All efforts should be made to recycle C&D debris from projects. In accordance with AFI 32-7042 and BAFB’s Integrated Solid Waste

Management Plan (ISWMP), ALL WEIGHTS AND TYPES OF C&D MATERIALS

RECYCLED AND DISPOSED MUST BE REPORTED TO THE RECYCLE PROGRAM

MANAGER, Mr. Al Garza at 456-5293 OR TO THE CONTRACTING OFFICER IN
