The Contractor shall ensure that main floor, mechanical room, and areas not included in the project are protected from the work, and decontamination procedures shall be followed prior to workers exiting containment. Seal the interior floor hatches and any other fenestrations. The crawlspace access in the kitchen area and janitor’s room of Building 1075 shall be sealed during remediation work such that it will not interrupt food preparation or impede kitchen staff activities. The Contractor shall coordinate with the independent industrial hygiene technician to collect pre-work air samples from inside the containment, outside the containment entrance, and the building exterior (control).

For exposed areas of soil below the concrete, the Contractor shall remove water to the soil, and surface soil shall be removed until visible mold and bacteria are no longer observed.

1.4.2.4 When mold remediation activities are complete, inform the Government. It is recommended to run the air scrubbers for an additional 24 hours prior to the clearance.
