1.4 DESCRIPTION OF WORK
This section covers all operations in which asbestos-containing materials (ACM) are encountered. These procedures and equipment are required to protect workers and building occupants from airborne asbestos fibers and ACM dust and debris. Activities include OSHA Class II work operations.
This section also includes containment, storage, transportation and disposal of the generated ACM wastes. The Contractor shall submit Detailed Drawings as specified in the Submittals paragraph.
1.4.1 Abatement Work Tasks
Some ACM has been identified in the roof and surrounding utilities. The Contractor shall identify these areas by Category of ACM and take the necessary measures to abate or dispose of the ACM. Category I non-friable ACM identified may remain in place as long as the demolition operation is categorized and performed as an OSHA Class II asbestos abatement. The demolition work must be performed by a Utah Licensed Demolition contractor that is also licensed as a Utah Asbestos Abatement Contractor. Any non-friable asbestos containing building materials that have remained in place during the demolition process must be identified for the disposal process. The ACM materials must be categorized and disposed of as asbestos waste and not included with building materials designated for recycling. See Utah Administrative Code R307-801 and supporting sections of the Code for ACM abatement & disposal procedures and rules. See the NESHAP Survey Reports and NESHAP Survey Lab Data at the end of this section.
1.4.2 Unexpected Discovery of Asbestos
For any previously untested building components suspected to contain
SECTION 02 82 14.00 10 Page 11 of 28 asbestos and located in areas impacted by the work, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer (CO) who will have the option of ordering up to 5 bulk samples to be obtained at the Contractor's expense and delivered to a laboratory accredited under the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) "National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP)" and analyzed by PLM. If the asbestos content is less than 10 percent, as determined by a method other than point counting, the asbestos content shall be verified by point counting. Any additional components identified as ACM that have been approved by the CO for removal shall be removed by the Contractor and will be paid for by an equitable adjustment to the contract price under the CONTRACT CLAUSE titled "changes". Sampling shall be conducted by personnel who have successfully completed the EPA Model Accreditation Plan (MAP) "Building Inspector" training course and is EPA/State certified/licensed as a "Building Inspector".
