PART 2 EXECUTION

2.1 DISPOSAL OF WASTE/EXCESS MATERIAL

2.1.1 General: The Contractor shall take a proactive, responsible role in the management of non‐hazardous solid waste and require all subcontractors, vendors, and suppliers to participate in the effort. Non‐hazardous

Solid Waste, as defined in Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 261.2, dispositioned for disposal shall be removed from the base in accordance with all Federal, State of Georgia, and local codes and requirements.

Every effort shall be made to segregate individual waste streams and divert waste from any landfill by reusing or recycling materials. Direct all non‐hazardous solid waste inquiries to 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste

Program Manager, (478) 327‐9283 or (478) 926‐9645.

2.1.2 Solid Waste Handling: All persons engaged in solid waste handling, including solid waste collection and transportation, or operations of solid waste handling facilities or disposal sites, shall have a solid waste handling permit or permit by rule letter. The provisions of Georgia Environmental Protection Division (GA

EPD) regulations concerning proper handling of solid waste and applicable prohibitions shall govern. All materials and equipment not turned in to the Government is considered property of the contractor and must be properly removed by the end of the project.

2.1.3 Solid Waste Disposal: Use one or more of the following methods to divert/dispose of non‐hazardous solid waste. All materials to be disposed of in other than a sanitary landfill must be kept segregated at the project site from those materials which are allowed only in a sanitary landfill.

a. Reuse (diversion): First consideration of waste shall be given to salvage for reuse to be used in the original form. Sale or donation of waste suitable for reuse shall be considered. Salvaged materials shall not be used in this project unless approved by the CO. Materials defined as “recovered materials” are excluded from regulation as solid wastes.

b. Recycling (diversion): Waste material not suitable for reuse but having value as a recyclable material shall be recycled whenever practical and economically feasible. Materials destined for recycling must meet the definition of non‐hazardous wastes under federal/state solid waste regulations.

Recyclable metal materials shall remain the property of the government and be recycled through the Robins AFB Qualified Recycling Program (QRP). To coordinate removal/collection of scrap wire and metal, please contact QRP Manager Casey Lucas at (478) 327‐9283, QRP Operations Manager

Darryl Mercer at (478) 327‐3976, or the Scrap Metal Yard Manager John Carter at (478) 283‐6542.

c. Sanitary Landfill (disposal): All solid waste may be disposed of in a sanitary landfill properly licensed by the State of Georgia. Provide proof that any Georgia municipal solid waste disposal facility receiving

Robins AFB waste is operated by someone who has obtained the certification required by the

Georgia Solid Waste Management Act, O.C.G.A. 12‐8‐24.1. If a landfill other than Houston County

Landfill is used, provide a copy of the landfill license.

i. If the presence of lead based paint, asbestos, or other hazardous materials are suspected, an analysis of the suspected material shall be performed by a certified lab approved by the

State. If the Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) results for lead are greater than

5 mg/L, the waste shall be disposed of as hazardous waste in a Subtitle C permitted facility‐‐ not a Subtitle D permitted facility such as the Houston County Landfill. If the lab analysis for asbestos is positive, the permission for landfill disposal is required and waste must be dispositioned through the Special Waste Acceptance Application (SWAA) process. Houston

County Landfill currently does not require a SWAA if there is no presence of lead based paint, asbestos, or other non‐hazardous Special Waste or hazardous materials suspected.

ii. SWAA Process: The results of the tests/lab analysis as well as the completed top and middle portion of the SWAA must be submitted to 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager for approval and signature. The 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager will be the signing authority as the generator on the SWAA form. 78 CEG/CEIEC will email the completed form to the County’s landfill consultant for disposal acceptance/approval and for issuance of

Special Waste Profile Number. The Special Waste Profile Number must be used on the

Waste Shipment Tracking Document. The Waste Shipment Tracking Document and SWAA are both attached at the end of the document. Allow a minimum of three working days for

78 CEG/CEIEC to process the SWAA form and to obtain the profile number. The 78

CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager will issue the completed SWAA back to the contractor via email. The Contractor must certify that no hazardous waste was introduced into the waste while in their custody. The contractor must provide a Waste Shipment

Tracking Document with each disposal load when required by Houston County. These forms must also be included in contract documents.

d. Inert Waste Landfill (disposal): Materials not likely to cause production of leachate of environmental concern may be disposed of in an inert waste landfill. Only earth and earth‐like products, concrete, cured asphalt concrete, rock, bricks, yard trimmings, and land clearing debris such as stumps, limbs, and leaves are acceptable for disposal in an inert waste landfill. A copy of the written notice of commencement of operation by the landfill as given to the GA EPD and a copy of the landfill license or permit by rule letter issued by the GA EPD must be provided to the Base Engineering Division (78

CEG/CEN) Project Manager and maintained in the contract documents. The weights of inert waste disposed in the landfill must be documented in the monthly waste management report, provided to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager, and then forwarded to the 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program

Manager.

e. Construction/Demolition Disposal Site (disposal): Materials will be recycled where practical. Recyclable metal materials (scrap metal, wire, motors, etc.) shall remain the property of the government and will be recycled through the Robins AFB QRP. To coordinate removal/collection of scrap metal materials, please contact QRP Manager Casey Lucas at (478) 327‐9283, QRP Operations Manager

Darryl Mercer at (478) 327‐3976, or the Scrap Metal Yard Manager John Carter at (478) 283‐6542.

Other construction and demolition (C&D) waste, including but not limited to wood, paper, cardboard can be recycled through the base recycling program or through another appropriate recycling avenue. Materials that can go in an inert waste landfill may be recycled according the rules of the State of Georgia, disposed of in an inert landfill, or lastly in the landfill. If the wastes are being disposed of at a landfill other than the Houston County Landfill, provide the landfill license to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager. Refer to Section 2.1.4 regarding proper reporting of disposal and recycling (weights). For construction and demolition wastes, a minimum of 60 percent by weight of the total project solid waste shall be diverted from the landfill.

f. Solid Waste Disposal Outside of Georgia: No solid waste can be disposed of outside the state of Georgia without prior written approval of the CO. The contractor shall provide sufficient information as determined by the CO to allow verification of compliance with the law.

2.1.4 Reporting of Disposal and Recycling: Robins AFB is required to report the amount (weight) of solid waste and C&D debris which is dispositioned by reuse, recycle, or disposal. Each month, the Contractor shall record the amounts of reused, recycled, and disposed materials on the Waste Management Report

(attached at the end of the document). Weights shall be cumulative from the start of each month and shall reflect the total amount of material disposed or recycled during the month. The report should reflect the method of disposal for the material generated from the project. Weights of material disposed of in a sanitary or C&D landfill shall be reported based on the weight tickets. Material disposed of in other types of landfills, which do not have weight scales, may be estimated. The weight of materials reused and or recycled may be estimated. Use a good faith effort to obtain the most accurate estimate possible. The

Contractor shall also provide the cost to landfill or divert/recycle the C&D debris on the Waste Management

Report. A copy of the Waste Management Report shall be turned in to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager by the 5th of the following month and prior to final payment. The 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager shall forward the Waste Management Report to the 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager. If there are any questions, the Solid Waste Program Manager contact information is:

2.1.5 Submittals, Notifications, and Approvals: The following submittals, notifications, and approvals are required to maintain compliance:

a. Solid Waste Disposal Plan: The Contractor shall provide a Solid Waste Disposal Plan stating how all materials leaving Robins AFB shall be disposed of and recycled no later than15 days after notice to proceed and not less than 10 days before the preconstruction meeting prior to starting work. The

Solid Waste Disposal Plan shall include actions that will be taken to reduce solid waste generation, specific approaches to be used in recycling/reuse of materials, waste management and storage information, and anticipated net cost savings.

i. The plan shall certify that the Contractor shall manage, dispose, and recycle all materials in compliance with all Federal, State of Georgia, and local laws. The plan shall address the disposal of each item in Sections 2.1.1 through 2.2.8 as applicable. The plan shall designate an employee who shall be responsible for verifying that all materials removed from Robins AFB are disposed of in accordance with the above referenced laws. Non‐hazardous solid waste shall be broken down into individual types, i.e., asphalt, concrete, wood, brick, etc. to facilitate recycling of recovered materials.

ii. Provide a copy of the Solid Waste Disposal Plan to the CO and to the 78 CEG/CEN Project

Manager. The 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager will forward to 78 CEG/CEIEC prior to review and approval 10 days prior to the Pre‐construction Conference or 15 calendar days prior to the start of disposal operations if no pre‐construction conference is held.

iii. Identify each landfill and recycler to be used. A copy of all landfill permits shall be provided unless the Houston County landfill is used.

iv. Provide a copy of a Solid Waste Handling Permit or permit‐by‐rule letter, issued by GA EPD, which allows the Contractor to handle solid wastes, including solid waste collection and transportation. A copy of the EPD permit‐by‐rule letter is required for the inert waste landfill being used.

v. Establish and maintain a Daily Waste Disposal and Recycling Log. Each load of materials that leaves Robins AFB shall be accounted for in the log. The log shall list the load number, bill of sale number/date or other record for recycling, as well as the name of the contract employee who verified that the material was disposed of properly, along with details as to how verification was accomplished.

vi. Keep evidence of proper disposal and recycling of construction debris as well as provide this evidence to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager. Examples of evidence include dump tickets from a licensed sanitary landfill, copies of current landfill permits from the State of Georgia (unless

Houston County landfill is used), manifest, bill of sale, or other record for recycling. The evidence shall be obtained the workday after the load is carried off and provided by the 5th of each month on the Waste Management Report.

vii. Prior to final payment, 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager must have received all monthly waste tracking reports. Attach a copy or duplicate of the Waste Shipment Tracking

Document for each load transported for disposal and recycling.

b. Building Demolition: Submit copies of GA EPD demolition notification to CO and the 78 CEG/CEN Project

Manager. The 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager will forward to the 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program

Manager 15 days prior to starting work and prior to submittal to the GA EPD for review, and submit final copies with copy of any payment made to GA EPD.

2.2 SPECIAL WASTES OR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

2.2.1 General: The Contractor must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local requirements concerning use of hazardous materials and hazardous waste. If there should be a conflict between environmental regulation/ordinances/statues and the contract’s specifications, the contractor shall, in writing, contact the

CO for a written determination. Disposal of all non‐hazardous Special Wastes, such as asbestos, requires submittal of a SWAA to obtain a Profile Number for use on the Waste Shipment Tracking Document as described in 2.1.3.c.

2.2.2 Hazardous Waste: Hazardous Waste is defined as waste meeting the requirements of 40 CFR 261.3. 78

CEG/CEIER Hazardous Waste Program Manager makes all hazardous waste determinations for waste generated on Robins AFB. The Contractor must provide all data necessary to determine the regulatory status of waste to 78 CEG/CEIER. Activities requiring large quantities of disposal must be coordinated prior to beginning work in order to ensure a sufficient number of hazardous waste containers are available. The

Contractor must ensure personnel have completed hazardous waste training prior to generating hazardous waste. All hazardous and universal wastes generated on Robins AFB must be disposed of through 78

CEG/CEIER at building 359. Direct all inquiries to the 78 CEG/CEIER Hazardous Waste Program Manager.

a. Paints, sealants, solvents, rags, or any other hazardous material(s) destined for disposal must be managed as a hazardous waste unless they have been determined not to be via Safety Data Sheet

(SDS) or laboratory sampling. 78 CEG/CEIER is the only organization authorized to make a hazardous waste determination.

b. Waste generated from the project itself (e.g. lead‐based paint removed from walls, contaminated soil, sludge from tank cleaning, etc.) must be turned‐in to Building 359 for disposal.

c. High‐intensity discharge (HID) and fluorescent lamps and tubes or switches containing mercury must be recycled as universal waste. Labeled containers must be requested through 78 CEG/CEIER at building 359 prior to job start.

d. Batteries used in emergency and exit lights that contain lead must be recycled. These batteries must be turned‐in to building 359 with no cost for disposal.

e. Disposal Procedures for Hazardous and Universal Waste:

i. Payment for waste disposal will be made through the property/building organizations

Department of Defense Activity Address Code (DODAAC) account. Since all regulated wastes must be disposed of through DLA‐DS, a valid DODAAC is essential to prevent contract operation delays. This step must be completed prior to requesting waste containers and labels. Authorization to use the organizations DODAAC also indicates there are sufficient funds available to pay for waste disposal generated from the project.

ii. Obtain labels and containers prior to job start from building 359 and place the labels on containers suitable for shipping per Department of Transportation (DOT) guidelines.

Fluorescent lamps/tubes may be placed in the original boxes the tubes came in or in boxes designed to prevent breakage. Take care not to break any universal waste lamps/tubes. If any are broken, they must be treated as spilled hazardous waste and turned‐in to building

359 immediately.

NOTE: Rolloff boxes to contain waste for large projects must be requested at least 2 weeks in advance.

iii. Accumulate hazardous waste under either the satellite accumulation rules (<55 gallons total, no time limit, 3 day limit to turn‐in full drums) or 90‐day rules (no quantity limit, use up to 90 days in the field, other 40 CFR 262.17 requirements apply). Turn‐in containers to building

359 when full or approaching time limit(s).

iv. The contractor is responsible for maintaining regulatory compliance for all regulated waste under their control. Responsibility for site compliance does not end until the waste is accepted by 78 CEG/CEIER for disposal.

v. Do not abandon waste at the job site.

2.2.3 Asbestos Containing Materials:

a. Asbestos Work/Removal: The Contractor shall provide 15 working day notification to the CO and 10 working day notification to GA EPD prior to the start of any work involving asbestos.

b. Qualifications: The Contractor shall be licensed and certified for asbestos abatement. All employees working on this project shall be trained and certified in the removal, handling, and disposal of asbestos material.

c. The contractor shall be responsible for the safety of his personnel and that of Government personnel in areas adjacent to the abatement area. Proper barricades, warning lines, etc. for the protection of people shall be placed in the appropriate areas.

d. Provide a written Asbestos Abatement Plan to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager and the 78 CES Toxic

Operations Manager. Provide description of work to be performed and work procedures to comply with rules and regulations. Provide employee training program certification that contractor personnel involved in removal and handling of asbestos has received asbestos training, respiratory protection, and medical surveillance program information. Additionally, copies of all notifications, GA EPD approval, and landfill disposal receipts and waste shipment tracking forms must be provided to the CO and be included in the Asbestos Abatement Plan.

e. Building Demolition: Follow guidance above regarding notification procedures. This may also apply to the modification of a building, and is considered demolition when the removal of a load‐bearing wall occurs. For more information, visit: http://epd.georgia.gov/asbestos‐notification‐requirements or coordinate with 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager or the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager.

The GA EPD Asbestos Abatement or Demolition Project Notification Form for asbestos renovation, encapsulation, or demolition can be at the website noted above.

f. Do not use any products containing asbestos.

g. Prior to the start of any demolition, renovation, or digging, determine if asbestos is in the area of construction. If there is no known asbestos in the project area, proceed as normal. If the contractor discovers any material suspected to be asbestos, bring it to the CO’s attention immediately. Stop all work in that area until directed to proceed.

i. Asbestos, not written in the contract: If asbestos is in the area of construction, describe where it is located. There should not be any work done in the area involving asbestos if it was not written in the contract. If any asbestos is accidentally damaged, notify 78 CES Toxic

Operations Manager at (478) 327‐8518, Bioenvironmental Engineering, 78 AMDS/SGPB at

SWAA must be submitted to 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager for approval and signature. The 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager will be the signing authority as the generator on the SWAA form. 78 CEG/CEIEC will email the completed form to the County’s landfill consultant for disposal acceptance/approval and for issuance of Special Waste Profile Number. The

Special Waste Profile Number must be used on the Waste Shipment Tracking Document. The Waste

Shipment Tracking Document and SWAA are both attached at the end of the document. Allow a minimum of three working days for 78 CEG/CEIEC to process the SWAA form and to obtain the profile number. The 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager will issue the completed SWAA back to the contractor via email. The Contractor must certify that no hazardous waste was introduced into the waste while in their custody. The contractor must provide a Waste Shipment

Tracking Document with each disposal load when required by Houston County. These forms must also be included in contract documents.

2.2.4 Lead Paint:

General: The contractor shall take precautions to protect contract and government employees from exposure to lead dust hazards during C&D projects in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.62, Occupational, Safety, and Health Administration (OSHA) Lead in Construction Standard. All painted surfaces including painted surfaces covered by other materials such as wall paper may contain varying levels of lead. All lead based paint abatement work shall only be performed in the areas shown by the required specifications and shall be in accordance with Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS).

a. For all projects (Major Abatement projects; Housing or Childcare Facilities; Maintenance, Repair, and

Minor Construction Projects): All painted surfaces, including painted surfaces covered by other materials such as wall paper, may contain varying levels of lead. The disposal of all debris containing lead paint shall be handled as a hazardous waste until a determination has been made otherwise based on test results. If the TCLP results for lead are greater than 5 mg/L, the waste shall be disposed of as hazardous waste in a Subtitle C permitted facility‐‐not a Subtitle D permitted facility such as the Houston County Landfill. If the results are less than 5 mg/L, the wastes can be disposed of at the Houston County Landfill. Notify 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager if these wastes will be disposed of at the landfill; 78 CEG/CEIEC will notify the landfill these wastes will be disposed of.

b. For hazardous waste, the contractor shall provide DOT approved drums and collect the waste in the drums. The drums shall be sealed, properly labeled, and turned in to the government for disposal.

i. Provide a written plan as required by OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1926.62 to the 78 CEG/CEN Project

Manager and the 78 CES Toxics Operations Manager. Provide description of work to be performed and work procedures to comply with rules and regulations. Provide certification that contractor personnel involved in removal and handling of lead based paint has received training in accordance with OSHA Lead Standards and medical surveillance program information. At the end of the project, provide results of air sample testing to demonstrate worker safety.

2.2.5 Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB): Do not use equipment or components containing PCB’s. This includes ballasts and capacitors for fluorescent and HID lighting.

a. Disposal Procedures for Fluorescent lighting ballasts and HID lighting capacitors containing PCB’s:

i. Fluorescent lighting ballasts and HID lighting capacitors must be managed and disposed of as toxic waste unless the label states they do not contain PCB’s. Ballasts and capacitors with no markings are assumed to contain PCB. Ballasts and capacitors marked as non‐PCB are handled as standard solid waste.

ii. Gather HID capacitors and fluorescent ballasts into separate containers and place them into labeled, suitably sized DOT‐approved containers per 49 CFR 173.202. (Typical sizes are 1, 5, 10, 30, and 55 gallons) Labels and containers may be obtained from building 359, 78

CEG/CEIER, (478) 926‐1176.

iii. If any are broken, they must be treated as spilled hazardous material. Contact 78 CEG/CEIER,

(478) 926‐1176 for disposal instructions.

iv. Dispose of sealed non‐leaking capacitors through DLA‐DS, (478) 926‐5162. Do not keep any of the full or partially full containers at the construction site for more than 30 days. Provide

DD Form 1348 obtained from building 359 prior to contacting DLA‐DS for disposal.

b. Disposal Procedures for all other PCB containing materials, including but not limited to: plastics (such as plastic insulation from wire or cable; radio, television and computer casings; vehicle parts; or furniture laminates); preformed or molded rubber parts and components; applied dried paints, varnishes, waxes or other similar coatings or sealants; caulking; asbestos:

i. Prior to the start of any demolition, renovation, or digging, determine if PCB containing materials are in the area of construction. If the contractor discovers any material he/she suspects to contain PCBs, or if lab results indicate PCB‐containing materials, the material shall be managed as PCB hazardous waste.

ii. Notify 78 CEG/CEIER Hazardous Waste Support at (478) 926‐1176 that a project area contains

PCB materials. Building 359 will provide the necessary containers for collection as well as a

DD Form 1348 for completion.

iii. Upon completion of DD Form 1348, the containers will be picked up directly by DLA‐DS. The

DLA‐DS POC is Darlene Smith, (478) 926‐5162. If DLA‐DS is not available to pick up PCB containing materials, notify 78 CEG/CEIER Hazardous Waste Support at (478) 926‐1176 for alternate disposal procedures.

iv. PCB waste will always be transported using a hazardous waste manifest which must be signed by a 78 CEG/CEIE representative. Payment for waste disposal will be made through a valid

DODAAC account. This step must be completed prior to requesting waste containers and labels. See section 2.2.8.c, page 19 for instructions on obtaining a DODAAC.

2.2.6 Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) and Controlled Substances Restriction:

2.2.7 Hazardous Materials (HazMat):

a. HazMat Definition: The term HazMat includes all items (including medical supply items, but excluding drugs in their finished form and pharmaceuticals in individually‐issued items) covered under

Emergency Planning and Community Right‐to‐Know Act (or other federal, state, or local) tracking requirement, the OSHA Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) Standard, and all Class I and Class II ODS.

It does not include munitions or hazardous waste.

b. HazMat Exceptions: The OSHA HAZCOM Standard [29 CFR 1910.1200(b)(6)(ix)] excludes “Any consumer product or hazardous substance, as those terms are defined in the Consumer Product Safety Act (15

U.S.C. 2051 et seq.) and Federal Hazardous Substances Act (15 U.S.C. 1261 et seq.) respectively, where the employer can show that it is used in the workplace for the purpose intended by the chemical manufacturer or importer of the product, and the use results in a duration and frequency of exposure which is not greater than the range of exposures that could reasonably be experienced by consumers when used for the purpose intended.” OSHA further states in a 14 April 2005 interpretation letter that office cleaning products utilized with the same frequency and duration as that of a normal consumer would fall under the HAZCOM Standard exemption for consumer products in 29 CFR 1910.1200(b)(6)(ix). Based on the OSHA HAZCOM Standard exemption, consumer products that are used at Robins AFB in such a way that the duration and frequency of use are the same as that of a consumer are not required to be included in the employer’s HAZCOM program. If unsure if the item meets the exemption, contact the HazMat Cell

(78CEG.cev.hazmat@us.af.mil).

c. Lead Acid Batteries: OSHA determined that lead acid batteries are hazardous chemicals because of their potential chemical exposure risks and physical hazards. As a result, lead acid batteries are classified as HazMat and do not fall under the article exemption because they have the potential to leak, spill or break during normal conditions of use.

d. Aerosol Products: All aerosol products are classified as HazMat.

e. The storage and usage of all HazMat must be tracked in the Air Force Standardized Tracking System. If the contractor does not have access to a government‐furnished computer and cannot access the Air

Force Standardized Tracking System, the contractor must report data on the HazMat stored and used during the performance of the contract at a minimum of weekly to the HazMat Cell and in the format specified. The Contractor should coordinate the submittal of HazMat data with the HazMat

Cell prior to the beginning of work.

f. Each HazMat container must have an Air Force‐approved bar code tracking label affixed, with the exception of kits and kits are required to have one label per kit. The tracking label shall be generated from the Air Force Standardized Tracking System and must be for the same manufacturer, same product and same size item. Substitutions are not allowed. HazMat that has been broken down into smaller “child” containers from the original “parent” container must have a packaging label affixed in addition to the bar code tracking label. If the contractor does not have access to a government‐furnished computer and cannot access the Air Force Standardized Tracking

System, the contractor must coordinate with the HazMat Cell the printing of bar code labels for all

HazMat items.

g. All HazMat must be authorized prior to use. The material is authorized by stock number for the using organization or contractor. HazMat items cannot be issued in the Air Force Standardized Tracking

System to an employee without an active, valid authorization. The contractor must submit an Air

Force Form 3952 (or the electronic equivalent through the Air Force Standardized Tracking System) for the authorization to use the HazMat.

h. Contractors must submit a “Hazardous Material Purchase Request for Contractors” form prior to transporting any hazardous material onto Robins AFB. Contact the HazMat Cell for the “Hazardous

Material Purchase Request for Contractors” form, 78CEG.cev.hazmat@us.af.mil. This form must be completed for all hazardous materials purchased by contractors for use on Robins AFB and approval must be granted prior to transportation onto Robins AFB. The purpose of this form is to ensure compliance with AFI 32‐7086 and OSHA HAZCOM, ensuring that hazardous materials are approved for use prior to transportation onto Robins AFB and a current SDS is available in the Air Force

Standardized Tracking System. Once approval is given, the contractor is permitted to transport hazardous materials onto Robins AFB. The contractor must track the hazardous materials in the Air

Force Standardized Tracking System.

i. Contractors must maintain compliance with the Robins AFB Hazardous Material Management Plan and

AFI 32‐7086. A copy of the plan can be obtained by contacting the HazMat Cell.

j. Contractors should contact the HazMat Cell (78CEG.cev.hazmat@us.af.mil ) with specific HazMat questions.

2.2.8 Submittals, Notifications, and Approvals: The following submittals, notifications, and approvals are required to maintain compliance:

a. HAZCOM Program: The Contractor must submit a written HAZCOM program to the CO when hazardous materials or chemicals are to be used or demolished. This HAZCOM plan must include the following information:

i. List of each work activity/process required to use/demolish hazardous materials/chemicals.

ii. List of hazardous materials/chemicals used.

iii. SDS for each hazardous material/chemical used. The SDS must be the most current SDS available from the manufacturer. SDSs from third party SDS sites are not allowed.

iv. HazMat Listing and Air Force Form 3952 for each HazMat: Provide the CO with SDS and the list of hazardous materials/chemicals prior to starting work. Each SDS must be accompanied with a completed Air Force Form 3952, detailing the intended use of the hazardous material.

The same procedure should be followed for additional hazardous material brought on base during the performance of the contract. The CO will forward the list of hazardous materials, Air Force Form 3952s and SDSs to the HazMat Cell for review and approval. HazMats are not permitted for transportation onto Robins AFB or use on Robins AFB until approval is given by 78 CEG/CEIER. A completed, signed, approved Air Force Form 3952 is required for every hazardous material used on Robins AFB.

v. Written procedures for handling of any hazardous waste generated.

b. ODS and Controlled Substances Restriction:

i. The Contractor shall provide the name, address, telephone number, and technician certification of each person who will service, repair, maintain and/or dispose of any equipment containing and/or using a refrigerant (Class I ODS, Class II ODS, or non‐ozone depleting substance) to 78 CEG/CEIEC.

ii. The Contractor shall provide a list of appliances located on base that have a capacity of 50 pounds or more of a Class I or Class II refrigerant to 78 CEG/CEIEC. Include the following information for each appliance:
