SECTION 02 83 01 - LEAD-BASED PAINT BUILDING COMPONENT REMOVAL, BUILDING

DEMOLITION AND RELATED WORK

PART 1 - GENERAL

1.1 DESCRIPTION OF WORK

A. Certain surfaces at FAFB Bldg. 1710 have been identified as being coated with lead based paint

(LBP). The results of the LBP inspection conducted at Building 1710 are contained in the report Lead Paint Survey Building 1710 Demolition Project, June 7, 2011, prepared by Environmental Risk Management. This report provides information on the substrates that were tested and the results. A complete copy of the report is included herewith as part of this specification section.

1. The interior and exterior steel door jambs, roof drain piping, boiler pressure tank, electrical breaker boxes, electrical lighting equipment in the restroom, exterior storage room window grate and automobile wheel bolted to the building were not sampled and are assumed to have lead paint and are required to be salvaged. The Contractor must salvage these metal building components with lead paint.

2. The equipment must be sent to a properly licensed salvage company and the salvage company must be notified in writing of the presence of lead paint on the salvage components.

Copies of signed acknowledgement documents must be submitted to the 92 CONS Contracting Officer. See photographic log for identification of building components to be salvaged in Appendix C of the Lead Paint Survey Building 1710 Demolition Project, June 7, 2011, prepared by Environmental Risk Management.

3. The steel door jambs identified to be salvaged must removed and abated of asbestos-containing sealer caulks by asbestos certified workers as outlined in the Building 1710 asbestos specification prior to salvage activities.

4. FAFB Building 1710 lead paint building component TCLP-Lead sample analytical results were below the Washington State Dangerous Waste Regulation (WAC 173-303) TCLP-Lead threshold for leachable lead of 5 PPM and are not classified as a hazardous waste and can be disposed of as general construction debris. See TCLP Lead Analytical report in Appendix B of Lead Paint Survey Building 1710 Demolition Project, June 7, 2011, prepared by Environmental Risk Management for analytical information.

5. FAFB requires that the lead painted CMU block and concrete in the interior restroom area not be recycled due to the presence of lead paint on the walls and ceilings. The Contractor may choose to remove the paints from this room prior to building demolition to recycle the CMU block and concrete If the Contractor chooses to recycle the remainder of the concrete and CMU block building, all lead-containing components must be removed prior to demolition for the recycling of the concrete or CMU block.

6. The Contractor will have a Certified Industrial Hygienist to certify that the Lead Abatement Contractor’s lead-based paint work plan, and the air sampling plan are in compliance with the contract specifications as well as all applicable regulations.

7. The Contractor will have an independent 3rd Party Industrial Hygienist on-site to perform testing, including but not limited to, fence line or work area perimeter dust monitoring and final inspections.
