APPENDIX A
GUIDANCE FOR SUBMISSION OF MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS
FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIAL (HAZMAT) AND REPORTING OF HAZMAT USAGE
Hazardous Materials: A hazardous material is commonly known as a HAZMAT. OSHA defines a hazardous material as any substance to which exposure “results or may result in adverse effects on the health and safety of employees” or “any chemical which is a physical hazardous or health hazard.” There is no ‘one simple list’ of hazardous materials.
Listed below are the general categories of hazardous materials that require the submission of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) hazardous material usage reporting to the Contracting Office:
• Compressed gases (all types)
• Adhesives
• Sealants
• Paints (including aerosols)
• Lubricants / oils / fuels
• Welding materials
• Solvents
• Chemicals used in testing or as additives
• Any fluids (except water) added to machinery / government-owned or leased equipment
• Pesticides/insecticides/rodenticides
1. At least three weeks prior to the start of construction, contractors must provide:
a. MSDS for each hazardous material to be used during the contract period.
b. A complete “DMAFB AF-EESOH-MIS Contractor Worksheet” included as the first page of the MSDS submittal (refer to Attachment A-1).
2. After receipt / review of the “DMAFB AF-EESOH-MIS Contractor Worksheet”, and the associated MSDS, DMAFB will return to the contractor the “Contractor Hazardous Material Review” sheet (refer to Attachment A- 2 for an example).
a. Depending upon the item(s) marked on the “Contractor Hazardous Material Review” sheet, the Contractor may (or may not) have additional submittal requirements.
b. If the Contractor does have additional hazardous material submittal requirements, the submittal(s) must be accomplished before the hazardous material is brought on base.
c. The contractor must receive the “Contractor Hazardous Material Review” sheet from DMAFB before the hazardous material is brought on base.
3. For those hazardous materials that will be tracked (as identified on the “Contractor Hazardous Materials Review” sheet), the following requirements apply:
a. For contracts less than 60 days, the Contractor will submit the “Contractor Hazardous Material and Usage Data” (refer to Attachment A-3) to the Contracting Office Representative prior to the start of the contracted work, and again at the completion of the contract.
b. For contracts greater than 60 days, the Contractor will submit the “Contractor Hazardous Material and Usage Data” (refer to Attachment A-3) to the Contracting Office Representative prior to the start of the contracted work, once each month of the contract, and at the completion of the contract.
If the contractor needs to bring hazardous material onto the installation that was not included in the original submittal, the contractor must submit the new information required in step 1 to the Contracting Office Representative to begin the review process identified in step 2.

APPENDIX B
CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION (C&D) DEBRIS
DMAFB is required to report the quantity of waste landfilled and the quantity of waste recycled on a quarterly basis. Because Construction and Demolition (C&D) debris can be a large portion of the waste generated in any quarter, DMAFB encourages the recycling of C&D debris.
Types of C&D debris include, but are not limited to:
• Aluminum cans (e.g., soda cans)
• Asphalt
• Bricks
• Cardboard
• Concrete
• Drywall
• Electrical wiring and components
• Green waste (palm fronds, scrub brush, land clearing debris, etc.)
• Landscaping stone
• Plaster
• Plumbing fixtures and piping
• Roof coverings (e.g., shingles or tiles)
• Metal scraps (from stud trim, ductwork, rebar, piping, roofing, banding, etc.)
• Wood (scrap wood)
At least 3 weeks prior to the start of construction, submit the C&D Debris Diversion Plan to the Contracting Office. This plan describes how the contractor will recycle (or dispose) of C&D debris (refer to Attachment B-1 for an example C&D Debris Diversion Plan).
For contracts less than 60 days, the Contractor will submit the “Summary of C&D Debris Recycling and Landfilling” (refer to Attachment B-2) to the Contracting Office prior to the start of the contracted work, and again at the completion of the contract.
For contracts greater than 60 days, the Contractor will submit the “Summary of C&D Debris Recycling and Landfilling” (refer to Attachment B-2) to the Contracting Office prior to the start of the contracted work, each month of the contract, and at the completion of the contract.
It is acceptable to combine the table included in the C&D Debris Diversion Plan and the monthly reporting requirements into one, comprehensive table (as shown in Attachment B-2). For a blank copy of Attachment B-2 visit Integrated Solid Waste webpage on eDASH (the link to eDASH can be found in Attachment G), or ask the Pollution Prevention Manager.

APPENDIX C
HAZARDOUS, PCB, AND UNIVERSAL WASTE:
PROPER MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSAL
Hazardous Waste, PCB, and Universal Waste: The Contractor is required to manage and dispose of hazardous waste, PCB waste, and universal waste in accordance with local, state, and federal laws. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to determine whether any of these wastes will be generated by a particular project and to properly manage such wastes.
Listed below are examples of wastes which can be hazardous waste (this list is not all inclusive):
• Acids or caustics
• Adhesives, caulks, roofing cements
• Empty aerosol cans
• Items that contain lead (such as lead flashing, lead solder, lead-based paint chips)
• Items that contain mercury (such as mercury switches, mercury thermostats, fluorescent bulbs)
• Paints, varnishes, and sealers
• Pesticides, insecticides, and rodenticides
• Waste solvents, thinners, cleaners, and fuels
• Sandpaper, sand blasting residue
• Rags, gloves, coveralls, masking paper contaminated with hazardous materials.
The following table presents a list of questions that the Contractor may use to help identify whether their work will be generating a hazardous, PCB, or universal waste (these questions are not all inclusive).
What processes will be performed during the project?
Potential Regulated Waste
Will any paint be chipped, sanded, abraded, or chemically removed?
Many paints and primers contain lead, cadmium, or chromium, and these paint residues and sandpaper may be RCRA toxic for heavy metals.
Will any flammable paints, varnishes, cements, adhesives, or other coatings be used?
Many flammable coatings & adhesives contain methyl ethyl ketone (synonyms are MEK & 2-butanone) and brushes, rags, etc. contaminated with these may be RCRA toxic for MEK.
Additionally, if these are to be disposed in liquid form they may be RCRA ignitable.
Will any chemicals be used to clean or strip surfaces?
Many solvents (e.g., chlorinated solvents, benzene, toluene, MEK, xylene, etc.)
are hazardous and the stripping residues along with rags and applicators may be RCRA listed spent solvent wastes.
Corrosive strippers (acids, alkalis, etc.) may be RCRA corrosive if disposed in liquid form.
Depending on what is being removed, the residues may also contain RCRA toxic heavy metals.
Will any aerosol cans be used?
Empty aerosol cans are regulated as RCRA reactive.
Non-empty aerosol cans that are disposed may also be RCRA ignitable.
Will any fluorescent lamps be removed?
Fluorescent lamps contain mercury and are regulated as Universal Waste (No Bulbs may be disposed of in trash receptacles).
Will any electronic equipment be removed (equipment containing circuit boards, switches, thermostats, transformers, soldered parts, CRTs, etc.)?
Some types of equipment may contain heavy metals and be RCRA toxic for mercury, lead, or silver.
Transformers and lamp ballasts may contain Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs).
Some types of equipment may contain batteries that have RCRA toxic metals or are RCRA corrosive or are regulated as Universal Waste.
Will all unused hazardous materials be removed by the contractor at job completion?
Full or partially full containers that are to be disposed may be RCRA wastes.
RCRA wastes must be removed by a licensed hazardous waste transporter and accompanied by a hazardous waste manifest.
Civilian Contractor Environmental Guide 20
APPENDIX D
INVESTIGATION-DERIVED WASTE (IDW):
PROPER MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSAL
Investigation-derived waste (IDW) is often generated during environmental investigation field work. IDW can include (but is not limited to) drill cuttings, excess soil sampling material, and concrete fragments or building materials encountered during investigation activities. IDW also includes personal protective equipment (PPE), and sampling equipment decontamination wash waters and rinse waters.
IDW – Proper Management
IDW must be properly managed from the moment of generation. IDW may be accumulated/collected in roll-off bins or drums (as appropriate). Bins must be covered to prevent stormwater intrusion and to prevent IDW from becoming windblown. Alternatively, it is permissible to lay down plastic sheeting (with bermed sides) on which the IDW can be placed. Again, the bermed area must be covered to prevent stormwater intrusion and to the IDW from becoming windblown.
IDW decontamination wash waters and rinse waters are to be contained and allowed to evaporate from the containment.
IDW PPE must be containerized (for example “bagged”) for proper disposal.
IDW – Proper Sampling
IDW must be properly sampled to determine the appropriate method of disposal. Waste soil is usually tested for potential listed and characteristic hazardous waste properties. Composite samples of IDW (for instance petroleum contaminated soil or drill cuttings) are often acceptable.
There is no need to sample IDW wash waters and rinse waters as these are containerized and allowed to evaporate.
Unless PPE is extremely contaminated, there is no need to sample IDW PPE.
IDW – Proper Disposal
The appropriate avenue for disposal of IDW (for instance soil, drill cuttings, or concrete fragments) is determined based upon the sample analytical results. Non-hazardous IDW is suitable for disposal at a municipal or solid waste landfill (such as the Southwest Regional Landfill in Buckeye Arizona or Los Reales in Tucson). IDW PPE is normally disposed of as solid waste.
Hazardous IDW must be disposed at a RCRA permitted facility. Hazardous IDW must be manifested off-site. It may be possible to arrange for the DM Environmental Office to sign the IDW hazardous waste manifest.
