Items that can be recycled in this community are asphalt, metals (including, but not limited to aluminum, tin, and steel), antifreeze, batteries, paper/cardboard, plastics, and used oil. This list is not all inclusive.

1. Sustainable Procurement is the purchase of sustainable and environmentally preferable products and services in accordance with federally mandated "green" procurement preference programs. The purpose of the SPP is to enhance and sustain mission readiness through cost effective acquisition that achieves compliance and sound management of the AF’s financial, natural, and energy resources. Through the P2 methodology outlined below, all AF organizations making purchases or product specifications for purchases will use the SPP as a routine part of day-to-day purchasing activities to reduce resource consumption and solid and HW generation. (T-1). 6.5. P2 Methodology.

B. These standards apply to all new construction, demolition, rehabilitation, alteration, modification, repair, and maintenance of existing facilities.

1. In an effort to comply with the affirmative procurement requirements of Section 6002 of the Resource Conservation Recovery Act (RCRA) and Executive Order 13693 in addition to EO 13693, the government strongly promotes the use of the recycled and recovered materials and products identified in the Environmental Protection Agency’s Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines.

Construction Documents 01030 - 17 January, 2018

2. Recycled and recovered materials and products shall be considered first before any other materials and products shall be accepted. Recycled and recovered materials and products shall be used throughout the project unless they either do not meet the requirements of this specification, delay the progress of the work, or are cost prohibitive.

3. Detailed below are examples of some materials and products. These are recommended quantities and represent minimum compliance. The actual requirement is to use the maximum amount of recycled material possible, while meeting the performance specifications. Under the Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines (CPG) program, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) designates products that are or can be made with recovered materials, and recommends practices for buying these products. Any designated product that is being offered or supplied under this contract shall meet the minimum recommended content levels as identified under the CPG program. Visit http://www.epa.gov/epawaste/conserve/tools/cpg/products for a complete list of designated products and the associated recommended content levels. Offerors must be able to demonstrate that each offered product meets minimum content levels upon request."

Road and Industrial Ave., the contractor shall complete the C&D form at the end of this Section (Appendix B). For Quarry Hill, contractor must also obtain permission from 354 CES/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager and 354 CES/CEOHP Range. To retain concrete disposal privileges the contractor will provide reports weekly to CEIEC. These reports may be faxed to CEIEC at 377-3367.

D. Comply with the requirements of the “Eielson AFB Waste Disposal\Borrow

Pit Plan” in the appendices of this specification section.

E. Part II, Eielson AFB Waste Disposal / Borrow Pit Worksheet.

a. Off base disposal: Submit all weight tickets/manifests to 354 CES/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager.

1) All hazardous and non-hazardous waste manifests shall be signed by a designated Eielson POC in accordance with Eielson's current Waste Manifest Delegation of Authority Letter. Please contact the Hazardous Waste Facility at 377-1668 for signature. Copies of all manifests shall be provided to 354 CES/CEOIC, Hazardous Waste Facility Manager.

2) All non-hazardous solid waste weight tickets shall be submitted to 354 CES/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager, 377-1659.

b. On base disposal (if allowed by contract):

1) Concrete – Concrete shal l be screened for asbestos, POLs, LBP and glycols prior to disposal. All painted concrete shal l be screened for LBP using XRF. If results are greater than 1 mg/cm2, then a Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) test s h a l l be performed prior to disposal. At no time can the concrete contain free flowing liquids. Submit the completed C&D form prior to disposal.

2) Asbestos Containing Material: All disposal shall be coordinated through the 354 CES/CEIEA. If Eielson’s asbestos landfill is used for disposal, contact the base Insulation Shop (354 CES/CEOII). Waste shall be properly contained.
