This plan is required to be followed by everyone (contractor or federal employee) working on future demolition, renovation, and construction activities that are subject to the Consent Order (CO) signed by the State of Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) and Mountain Home Air Force Base (MHAFB). MHAFB is ultimately responsible for compliance with the CO and applicable regulations. The plan is to be used to address the procedure that MHAFB will utilize in the unlikely event demolition, renovation, or construction activities result in asbestos containing material (ACM) that, according to 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M, becomes regulated asbestos containing material (RACM). ACM becomes RACM when it has a high probability of becoming or has become crumbled, pulverized, or reduced to powder by the forces expected to act on the material in the course of demolition or renovation operations regulated by 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M.

MHAFB has implemented new procedures to avoid creating RACM such as, improved Dig Line procedures (attachment A) for locating known utilities (active and abandoned), a more careful review in association with the contractor of old as-built drawings to highlight abandoned utility lines that have the potential to contain asbestos, potential hand-digging or other method than a trencher (for example excavator with a spotter) whert the base suspects that activities are within 5 feet of transite pipe while also ensuring that current procedures such as building surveys (asbestos, lead based paint, and other environmental issues) are accomplished before any work is started. MHAFB also conducts pre-construction meetings to identify environmental, health and safety issues. A copy of the environmental pre-con checklist (attachment B) is included as a reference.

Other measures may be taken by the contractor as determined through approved submittals as part of the contract and their site specific health and safety plan. Since this plan will be approved by IDEQ as part of the CO, this plan must be followed specifically as is unless official written permission is given by IDEQ. However, all local, state, and federal regulations still apply and must be followed including 40 CFR 61 Subpart M. In addition, MHAFB will update, as necessary and through the CO revision procedures, this contingency plan to reflect changes in procedures or requirements until the CO is terminated.

In order to ensure that this plan is followed, there will be at least one trained representative in the National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Asbestos (40 CFR 61 Subpart M) on the job site when asbestos work is being performed.

Asbestos Transite Pipe (This is a semi-chronological order of events. Some events may happen simultaneously.)

• Whoever first discovers that Transite pipe has become RACM, they will immediately report it to the on-site trained representative. The contractor will also notify the appropriate government representative and stop work according to contract provisions.

• MHAFB or a MHAFB representative will have more frequent inspections of the work area focusing on RACM and to ensure that the contractor is following this contingency plan. Since inspections are project specific, increased inspection frequency will depend on initial inspection frequency and severity of problem (for example weekly inspections could become at a minimum twice weekly inspections, twice weekly inspections could become daily inspections, daily inspections could become twice daily inspections.)

• The on-site trained representative will verify that the material is Transite pipe and document the discovery. Ifin question, trained representative can assume that it is Transite pipe until sampled.

• Contractor will fill out Asbestos Emergency Response Report and submit in accordance with contract provisions.

• After discovery of RACM Transite pipe, the contractor will notify all employees and watch for any indication of Transite pipe that surfaces.

• The contractor will provide a visual example of what Transite pipe looks like to all employees.

• Contractor will document in daily report any RACM discovered.

• MHAFB or a MHAFB representative will review work practices to identify an approach that will avoid further releases of RACM before work is allowed to resume.

• Contractor will re-check and update as-built (if necessary) utility drawings to identify locations where Transite pipe was encountered.

• The contractor will make every attempt to discover the source of the Transite pipe based on the activities in the area.

• Once Transite pipe becomes RACM, leave undisturbed, wetted, covered with a piece of plastic and flagged until properly disposed of by an appropriately trained individual.

• The contractor will assign appropriately trained personnel to continually look over the excavated material and surrounding area during continuous operations in order to identify any additional pieces of Transite pipe.

• The contractor will assign appropriately trained personnel to review trenching and excavating operations and the spoil piles daily in order to insure any and all Transite pipe pieces that surface are identified and dealt with according to the appropriate regulations.

• Inorder to ensure a clean site, all workers and inspectors will be on constant watch for any pieces of Transite pipe that may surface during daily construction activities.

• The environmental office will be responsible for semiannual walkthroughs of the areas known to contain surface pieces of asbestos containing material. If asbestos pieces are discovered they will be handled in accordance with procedure outlined in this plan. If there are three consecutive walkthroughs where no asbestos pieces are found or the area is developed the requirement for walkthroughs will no longer be necessary. All site activities with regards to development will be in accordance with this plan.

MHAFB Dig Line Process

MHAFB Dig Line Process

Mountain Home Air Force Base is part of Dig Line, Inc, which is a one call center used throughout Idaho to let member utilities know that they need to mark utility lines before any digging begins. Utilities have 2 business days to mark their locations unless it is an emergency request. The Dig Line number is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 1-800-342-1585.

Requests can also be made on the Dig Line website located at www.digline.com. Once Dig Line is notified, they will in-tum notify the affected utilities in the area.

Once notified of excavation activities on base through Dig Line, MHAFB implements their own internal Dig Line procedures. MHAFB is responsible for marking certain phone and fiber optic lines, high temperature stream pipes, water lines, wastewater lines, storm water lines, gas lines, fuel lines, and electrical lines. In addition to these lines, local gas, power, telephone, and cable TV companies are responsible for marking known utilities. Once all the MHAFB utilities sign-off on the Dig Line, a Base Excavation Permit is issued. The Base excavation Permit includes a map of the work area showing all know active and abandoned utilities. No excavation on base can be started without this permit being issued. An example permit is included as reference to show what the Base Excavation Permit looks like.
