Each MSDS shall be submitted in 3 copies, and the Contractor shall retain a copy for on-site use. All hazardous materials must be authorized before being used or brought on to the job site.

25.2.3 Hazardous Materials Authorization Procedures for Contractors: The Contractor is responsible for the proper handling and management of all hazardous waste generated from his/her work. The contractor will be held fully liable for any contractor activity/non-activity that results in a Notice of Violation (NOV) or any other regulatory penalty. Contractors using hazardous material (HAZMAT) on WAFB must comply with the authorizations procedures described below and in conformance with AFI 32-7086, 2.5.5.

Contractors must provide to the WAFB Contracting office, as a submittal item, a list of proposed HAZMAT, including MSDS that it plans to use on the installation during the performance of the contract. The Contracting officer/administrator will then forward this information to the Quality Assurance (QA) evaluator or Inspector.

This information will be forwarded to the HAZMART office by the Inspector. HAZMART office will review the information and determine which contractor-identified materials need to be tracked.

For each contractor-identified HAZMAT that does not meet the Air Force definition of a HAZMAT, these requirements do not apply.

For each contractor-identified HAZMAT that does meet the Air Force definition of a HAZMAT, the HAZMART office will notify the Inspector of the material requiring authorization and tracking. An Enterprise Environmental, Safety, and Occupational Health Management Information System (EESOH-MIS) worksheet will be completed and submitted as a submittal item to the Contracting Officer. The following information is required to be provided for each hazardous material used on WAFB: material name, manufacturer, unit of issue, and the amount used. If requested, the HAZMART office can assist the Contractor in completing the EESOH-MIS worksheet.
