1.4 QUALITY ASSURANCE

A. Demolish, remove, and dispose of asbestos materials as indicated on the drawings and specified herein. For the purposes of this specification, full-gross removal containment is required for any removal activity that takes two people over four hours to complete or that is required in 29 CFR 1926.1101.

During removal, workers shall not leave the enclosure except for life-threatening emergencies. This applies only to removal activity and not to enclosure construction or final area clean-up.

B. Use glove bag techniques as described in 29 CFR 1926.1101 and paragraph 3.7C, for small sections. If samples taken during initial glove bag work exceed

0.01 fiber per cubic centimeter (f/cc), stop the job and remove all remaining asbestos using full-gross removal containment. Gross removal methods utilizing full decontamination units as described in 29 CFR 1926.1101, Appendix F, shall be the method of removal.

C. On small sections of pipe, valves, or other small areas of abatement where the glove bag is not suitable and full-gross removal containment is not required, mini-enclosures as specified in 29 CFR 1926.1101 may be used.

Mini-enclosures shall be equipped with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtered exhaust ventilation.

D. Assume unidentified insulating material to be asbestos.

PART 2 PRODUCTS

2.1 AIR RETURN FILTERS

A. 1-inch-thick disposable random fiber.

2.2 ENCAPSULANTS

A. Dryable to clear appearance and paintable with standard latex paints (American Coatings Corporation Cable Coating 22P Penetrating Sealant and Lock Down, or approved equal).

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 CONTROL OF WORK: Control work locations where the generation of asbestos dust could expose persons not properly protected.

A. Use safety ropes and barricades and post with 20-inch by 14-inch signs bearing the following warning:

B. Record all sampling numbers identified on asbestos material to be removed.

C. Ensure isolation of the work area or construction of the enclosure complies with 29 CFR 1926.1101. In addition, a continuous layer of true 6-mil polyethylene or other impermeable material shall first be applied to the floor and extend 12 inches up the wall. Use a layer of true 4-mil polyethylene for the first wall and ceiling and extend 12 inches onto the floor. Place the second layer of true 6-mil polyethylene on the floor and extend 18 inches up the wall and follow by the second layer of true 4-mil polyethylene on the walls and ceiling and extend 18 inches onto the floor. Polyethylene used for floors and walls shall be installed in such a manner to prevent ballooning of the polyethylene from the walls or floors. Drop and splatter sheets shall also be used in all containments in addition to the use of the two layers of polyethylene on the walls and the three layers on the floors of the containment. In special situations, such as enclosures constructed outside, you may elect to construct the entire containment out of true 6-mil polyethylene or other impermeable material also supported by plywood or other rigid material.. Coordinate such construction with the Government

representative. Enclosures constructed to contain asbestos work such as around equipment, utility systems, windows, doors, or other industrial systems shall be constructed of lumber (such as two by fours) or other rigid material supported on centers no greater than 48 inches apart and in a manner that shall maintain the integrity of the containment and prevent containment failure and release of asbestos fibers outside the work area. The use of wire, cable and other non-rigid systems shall not be used as containment framework or to otherwise hold polyethylene unless also supported by lumber or other rigid material on no greater than 48-inch centers. Support of polyethylene by wire, cable or other non-rigid materials by themselves shall not be allowed. Polyethylene sheeting shall be attached to the lumber or other rigid material and held in place through the use of spray glue, wooden screen molding nailed or screwed in place, duct tape and/or other mechanical methods.

D. Construct hygiene facilities for decontamination of workers and equipment in the same way except use true 6-mil polyethylene for walls, ceiling, and floor.

Hygiene facilities for decontamination of workers and equipment must be contiguous with the work area in all instances. Construct doors so that flaps completely isolate the rooms in the event of air exhaust ventilation failure and allow easy access for personnel and equipment. The clean room shall be large enough to accommodate at least three workers. Prevent direct viewing into the shower, clean room, or dirty room by other personnel by constructing the walls and ceilings of these areas of black polyethylene.

E. All negative pressure enclosures shall be smoke tested after initial setup and at the beginning of each work shift.

F. Ensure that the enclosure walls, floor, and ceiling do not billow or pull out more than 6 inches from the walls or floors to allow for effective cleaning and easy movement of personnel and equipment while inside.

G. Repair damaged barriers and correct defects as soon as they are discovered.

Visually inspect containment barriers at the beginning of each work period.

The Government representative may use smoke tube methods to test barrier effectiveness.

H. Do not commence work until signs are posted, required isolation barriers are erected, and the Contracting Officer or the Government representative has authorized the work to begin. In addition, all equipment such as ladders, scaffolds, HEPA vacuums, air machines, trucks, and other tools and equipment are subject to visual inspection and bulk sampling to ensure that no asbestos debris or contamination is brought onto AEDC from the contractor's previous jobs. Wrap in two layers of true 6-mil polyethylene sheeting or properly bag any items that have visible debris, label ASBESTOS, and remove from AEDC. Encapsulation of items is not sufficient justification to use contaminated equipment. Items that do not pass visual inspection shall not be cleaned at AEDC.

ANZY080082 02 08 00-7

I. Turn off all building ventilation air systems during preparation and until the area has passed final visual inspection and final air sampling by the Government representative. Remove all heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system filters before commencing asbestos removal and treat them as asbestos contaminated. Seal all air supply and return openings with true 6-mil polyethylene. Replace filters with new ones following the approved inspection.

J. Clean the work areas of all visible asbestos debris prior to placing polyethylene sheets or beginning asbestos containment work. Establish critical barriers before beginning clean-up work.

K. Completely decontaminate all ladders, vacuum cleaners, air machines, and other equipment used during abatement activities prior to removal from the abatement area. Cover all such equipment with true 4-mil polyethylene sheeting and duct tape prior to abatement activity. Seal all openings to air machines with true 6-mil polyethylene prior to their removal from an abatement area and any time they are not in operation. Wrap vacuum cleaner hoses with polyethylene. Seal all open ends of vacuum hoses or intake openings of vacuums with duct tape when not in operation to contain the asbestos. Seal ladder rungs, steps, and sides in polyethylene before use in an abatement area to ensure their complete decontamination following abatement. Clean and completely decontaminate all pump-up sprayers, tools, and equipment following abatement. If they cannot be decontaminated, dispose of them as asbestos material in the AEDC asbestos landfill, which is located approximately 2 miles west of the North Hap Arnold Drive and Sixth Street intersection.

3.2 RESPIRATORY PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS

A. Establish a respiratory protection program as required by 29 CFR 1910.134 and 29 CFR 1926.1101. The Government will strictly enforce the OSHA "no facial hair/respiratory policy" for all personnel who wear respirators at any time during the job.

B. Ensure workers are clean shaven daily immediately preceding their work shift and before wearing respiratory protection.

C. Provide spectacle inserts to personnel wearing full-face respirators who normally wear spectacles, otherwise they will not be allowed in the containment area. Do not allow contact lenses to be worn in asbestos areas.

3.3 PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

A. Use protective equipment that meets all Government standards for use in asbestos abatement. Use coveralls having headcovers and booties attached.

ANZY080082 02 08 00-8

3.4 LOCAL EXHAUST SYSTEM

A. Provide a local exhaust system in the asbestos control area in accordance with ANSI Z9.2. Equip exhaust with absolute HEPA filters. When possible, HEPA-filtered air shall be exhausted to the outside of buildings. Local exhaust equipment shall be sufficient to maintain a minimum pressure differential of minus 0.02 inches of water column relative to adjacent unsealed areas and provide a minimum of four complete air changes per hour. Provide continuous 24-hour-per-day monitoring of the pressure differential with an automatic recording instrument. In no case shall the building exhaust system be used as the local exhaust system for the asbestos control area. Filters on vacuums and exhaust equipment shall conform to ANSI Z9.2. Change HEPA filters at least every 700 hours for 12-inch HEPA filters or more often as required to ensure proper filtration of air. Change pre-filters as soon as visible accumulations occur on the filters, and change intermediate filters at least once per shift. If filter loading occurs (i.e., visible accumulations on prefilter), change more often. Conduct air monitoring during asbestos removal to ensure filter integrity and asbestos levels outside the enclosure remain at or below 0.01 f/cc. Provide and install a back-up HEPA air exhaust ventilation system to be used in the event of primary system failure. Do not use a system with a remote filter housing inside gross removal areas.

3.5 COMMUNICATION DEVICES

A. Do not use any two-way communication devices unless pre-approved by the AEDC Security Forces.

3.6 CONFINED SPACES

A. Ensure entry into confined spaces is consistent with AEDC Safety Standard B5. Before entering a confined space, make oxygen and Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) measurements using a NIOSH-approved O2/LEL metering device.

While persons are working in a confined space, designate a stand-by person to remain outside who has been trained within the last 12 months in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by the American Red Cross or American Heart Association.

3.7 ASBESTOS REMOVAL

A. General: Comply with the rules of Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, Chapter 1200-3-11-.02, and 40 CFR 61. The Government will notify the Tennessee Air Pollution Control Board (ref 1200-3-11-.02 [2][d]1[ii] and 2). The removal of asbestos insulation from existing piping or other surfaces shall be subject, but not limited, to the following:

1. Require personnel who work with asbestos to use disposable coveralls;

disposable head, neck, and shoe coverings; non-porous gloves; eye goggles; and a NIOSH-approved respirator.

ANZY080082 02 08 00-9

2. Saturate all asbestos materials with wetting agent and ensure the material stays damp during removal. Do not allow asbestos insulation to drop to the floor or ground. Place asbestos in a proper container and lower to the floor or ground as appropriate.

3. Protect all existing machinery, equipment, floors, and walls from contamination by asbestos waste.

4. Control the dispersal of asbestos particles through methods such as isolation and wetting of material before removal. Keep a HEPA-filter vacuum on the job site at all times for use in clean-up of asbestos debris and during glove bag removal.

5. Do not wear protective clothing off the job site or take home for laundering. Provide a decontamination locker room and a clean locker room for personnel required to wear whole-body special clothing. Keep street clothes in the clean locker. While still wearing respirators in the decontamination room, vacuum and remove asbestos-contaminated disposable protective clothing and seal in impermeable bags or containers for disposal. Locate a shower between the decontamination and clean locker rooms and require all employees to shower before changing into street clothes. Filter shower water to 1 micron prior to disposal in a sanitary sewer.

6. Do not smoke, eat, drink, chew tobacco or gum, or apply cosmetics at the job site. Ensure that workers are fully decontaminated prior to conducting any of these activities.

B. Small section removal: Use glove bags to remove asbestos material in small sections with two-person teams specifically trained in glove bag procedures.

The Government will enforce strict observance of the glove bag techniques described in 29 CFR 1926.1101 and as specified herein.

1. 1. Place polyethylene under the work area.

2. Wear full body protection (e.g., coveralls, booties, headcovers, and gloves) in addition to respiratory protection.

3. Turn off ventilation systems located in the area during asbestos removal.

4. Clean up and seal ventilation openings in the area.

5. Establish critical barriers by sealing doors and windows or wall penetrations as necessary.

6. Do not allow asbestos insulation to drop to the floor or ground.

C. Glove bag requirements: In areas where insulation has caused contamination under the pipe line, pre-clean the work area of all contamination before applying polyethylene worksheet or conducting any repair or glove bag activity.

1. Use true 6-mil-thick transparent polyethylene glove bags.

2. Ensure that the diameter of the pipe insulation does not exceed one-third of the bag’s working length.

3. Secure the glove bag with an air-tight seal of duct tape. Place duct tape around the pipe insulation first to form a smooth seal.

4. Ensure the glove bag is sealed by conducting a smoke test. A smoke test is conducted by inserting a smoke tube used in ventilation system

ANZY080082 02 08 00-10

analysis through the bag. If smoke leaves the bag, the seal is inadequate;

and work will be discontinued until an adequate seal is achieved. Retest the glove bag after each failure.

5. Wrap any damaged pipe insulation, adjacent to the work area or capable of creating asbestos fallout as a result of glove bagging, in at least true 6-mil-thick plastic sheeting and seal tight with duct tape, or seal and repair with insulation mastic. In areas where insulation to be removed has deteriorated and the temporary repair may create a potential fiber release, use HEPA local exhaust ventilation during repair or removal.

6. Saturate all asbestos-containing materials within the glove bag with amended water prior to stripping. When using pump-up sprayers for wetting agents and encapsulants, place the spray wand through the side of the bag and seal holes prior to the start of asbestos removal.

7. Saturate the pipe with amended water after the insulation has been stripped and scrub with a brush to remove all visible asbestos material.

8. Seal any piping insulation ends created by the repair with an EPA-approved encapsulant and an insulation mastic.

9. Use a HEPA vacuum to collapse the glove bag. Seal the vacuum in the glove bag prior to asbestos removal and run continuously during shifting of glove bag.

10. Use negative pressure enclosure with HEPA local exhaust ventilation in areas where removal of badly deteriorated insulation is to occur, regardless of the amount of asbestos to be removed.

11. Double-bag the glove bag and all other asbestos-containing waste for disposal.

D. Ventilation ductwork removal requirements: Remove ventilation ductwork, which is insulated with a non-asbestos material held in place by asbestos-containing glue or mastic, by doing the…
