DUST CONTROL PLAN NOTES / DUST CONTROL PLAN HAZARD ASSESSMENT

PRIOR TO INITIATING WORK, CONTRACTOR WILL ASSESS THE SCOPE OF THE CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES AND

DETERMINE THE POTENTIAL RISK GROUPS INVOLVED BASED ON THE LOCATION OF ACTIVITIES AND EXTENT AND

DURATION OF THE WORK. LOW RISK GROUPS ARE CONSIDERED "OFFICE WORKERS", MEDIUM RISK GROUPS ARE

CONSIDERED ALL INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT AREAS NOT IN THE HIGH RISK GROUP. HIGH RISK GROUP

DESIGNATION INCLUDES INPATIENT AREAS SUCH AS PEDIATRIC AND ADULT OPERATING/DELIVERY ROOMS, CATH

LABS, MYELO SUPPRESSION UNITS, ICUS, DIALYSIS, NURSERIES AS WELL AS CLINIC AREAS (CLINICS ASSOCIATED

WITH HEMATOLOGY, ONCOLOGY, PEDIATRIC INFECTION DISEASE, OR TRANSPLANT SERVICES) AND SERVICE

AREAS (CENTRAL PROCESSING, STERILE PROCESSING, FOOD PREP & SERVICE AREA AND PHARMACIES. THE

VAMC INFECTION CONTROL GROUP WILL CONFIRM AND APPROVE THE DESIGNATION PROVIDED IN THIS

SUBMITTED DUST CONTROL PLAN. VAMC IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY AND ALL INFECTION CONTROL

MEASURES DETERMINED AND ESTABLISHED BY VAMC POLICY, SUCH AS THE RELOCATION OF HIGH RISK

PATIENTS, APPROVING ALTERNATE TRAFFIC PATHS FOR CONSTRUCTION WORKERS OR ESTABLISH ALTERNATE

TRAFFIC PATTERNS FOR STAFF, PATIENTS AND VISITORS. THE PLAN SHOULD BE REVISED ACCORDING TO

SPECIFIC VAMC POLICIES OR CHANGING CONDITIONS AT THE SITE AS THEY MAY OCCUR.

CHARLESTON VAMC RENOVATION

FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS RENOVATION, THE CONSTRUCTION WORK IS CONSIDERED ADJACENT TO MEDIUM

RISK AND COMPRISES WORK WHICH COULD GENERATE MODERATE TO HIGH LEVELS OF DUST NOT WITHIN THE

CONFINES OF A SUITE OR OFFICE AND INCLUDES EXTENSIVE CONSTRUCTION WORK (DEMOLITION) IN BUILDING

100 THROUGHOUT THE CORE AND SERVICE BAYS ON THE FIRST FLOOR. THE DUST CONTROL PLAN SHALL BE

DISTRIBUTED AND REVIEWED BY ALL CONTRACTORS PERFORMING WORK ON THIS CONSTRUCTION PROJECT.

A. EXTERNAL DEMOLITION AND CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES

• DETERMINE IF THE IMPACTED AREAS OF THE FACILITY CAN OPERATE TEMPORARILY ON RECIRCULATED AIR; IF

FEASIBLE SEAL OFF ADJACENT AIR INTAKES.

• IF THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE OR PRACTICAL, CHECK THE LOW-EFFICIENCY FILTER BANKS FREQUENTLY AND

REPLACE AS NEEDED TO AVOID BUILDUP OF PARTICULATE.

• SEAL WINDOWS AND REDUCE WHEREVER POSSIBLE OTHER SOURCES OF OUTSIDE AIR INTRUSION (OPEN

DOORS IN STAIRWELLS AND CORRIDORS) ESPECIALLY IN PROTECTIVE ENVIRONMENT (PE) AREAS.

B. INTERNAL DEMOLITION AND CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES DUST AND DEBRIS CONTROL

• BARRIER SYSTEMS: THE AREA SHOULD BE ISOLATED, AS THE PROJECT REQUIRES. SMALL, SHORT DURATION

PROJECTS GENERATING MINIMAL DUST MAY USE FIRE-RATED PLASTIC SHEETING, BUT SHOULD BE SEALED AT

FULL CEILING HEIGHT WITH AT LEAST 2-FOOT OVERLAPPING FLAPS FOR ACCESS TO ENTRY. PROJECTS THAT

PRODUCE MODERATE TO HIGH LEVELS OF DUST REQUIRE RIGID, DUST-PROOF, AND FIRE-RATED BARRIER

WALLS (E.G., DRYWALL) WITH CAULKED SEAMS FOR A TIGHT SEAL EXTENDING FLOOR TO CEILING. SEAL OFF

AND BLOCK RETURN AIR VENTS IF RIGID BARRIERS ARE USED FOR CONTAINMENT. LARGE DUST PROJECTS

NEED AN ENTRY VESTIBULE FOR CLOTHING CHANGES AND TOOL STORAGE AND TIGHT SEALS SHOULD BE

MAINTAINED AT THE FULL PERIMETER OF WALLS AND WALL PENETRATIONS. AN INTERIM PLASTIC DUST

BARRIER (MINIMUM 4-MIL) MAY BE REQUIRED TO PROTECT THE AREA WHILE THE RIGID IMPERVIOUS BARRIER

IS BEING CONSTRUCTED. ANY DUST SHALL BE IMMEDIATELY CLEANED IF TRACKED OUTSIDE OF THE

CONSTRUCTION BARRIER. UPON COMPLETION OF THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT DUST BARRIERS SHALL BE

REMOVED CAREFULLY TO MINIMIZE SPREADING OF DUST AND THE CONTRACTOR SHALL HAVE TEMPORARY

DUST PROTECTION IN PLACE BEFORE REMOVAL OF A PERMANENT BARRIER. CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL

SHALL MONITOR AND PERFORM BARRIER MAINTENANCE AND BE EDUCATED TO NOTICE SIMPLE CLUES SUCH

AS ACCUMULATIONS OF VISIBLE DUST EVIDENCED BY FOOTPRINTS, OPENED DOORS/WINDOWS EVIDENCED BY

PRESENCE OF INSECTS AND FLIES, WET CEILING TILE, ETC.

• TRAFFIC CONTROL; DESIGNATED ENTRY AND EXIT PROCEDURES SHALL BE DEFINED. EGRESS PATHS SHOULD

BE FREE OF DEBRIS; DESIGNATED ELEVATORS SHOULD BE USED DURING SCHEDULED TIMES; AND ONLY

AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE. SIGNAGE SHOULD

DIRECT PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC AWAY FROM THE CONSTRUCTION AREA AND MATERIALS.

• DEMOLITION DEBRIS: DEBRIS SHOULD BE REMOVED IN CARTS WITH TIGHTLY FITTED COVERS, USING

DESIGNATED TRAFFIC ROUTES. EFFORTS SHOULD BE MADE TO MINIMIZE USE OF ELEVATORS WITH AN

EMPHASIS ON TRANSPORT DURING THE LOWEST PERIOD OF ACTIVITY. DEBRIS SHOULD BE REMOVED DAILY

AND AT TIMES SPECIFIED BY THE VAMC. IF CHUTES ARE USED TO DIRECT DEBRIS OUTSIDE, HIGH EFFICIENCY

PARTICULATE AIR (HEPA) FILTERED NEGATIVE AIR MACHINES SHOULD BE USED, AND THE CHUTE OPENING

SHOULD BE SEALED WHEN NOT IN USE. FILTERS SHOULD BE BAGGED AND SEALED BEFORE BEING

TRANSPORTED OUT OF THE CONSTRUCTION AREA. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL NOT HAUL DEBRIS THROUGH

PATIENT-CARE AREAS WITH PRIOR APPROVAL OF THE VAMC.

• EXTERIOR WINDOWS: WINDOWS SHOULD BE SEALED TO MINIMIZE INFILTRATION FROM ANY ADJACENT

EXCAVATION DEBRIS.

• CEILINGS THAT ARE REMOVED/MODIFIED TO ALLOW CONSTRUCTION OF ICRA BARRIERS SHOULD BE

REINSTALLED TO PRE-CONSTRUCTION CONDITIONS.

VENTILATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS

• AIR SYSTEM FLOW: DETERMINE WHETHER THE CONSTRUCTION AREA USES FRESH/OUTSIDE OR

RECIRCULATED AIR; FILTERS SHOULD BE ADDED OR RETURN VENTS COVERED AS NEEDED WITH FILTER

MATERIAL OR PLASTIC. AIR MUST FLOW FROM CLEAN TO DIRTY AREAS.

• NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE: THE AIR WITHIN THE CONSTRUCTION AREA MUST BE NEGATIVE WITH RESPECT TO

SURROUNDING AREAS AND WITH NO DISRUPTION OF AIR SYSTEMS OF ADJACENT AREAS. USE OF THE

NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE SYSTEM WITHIN THE ENCLOSURE TO REMOVE DUST SHOULD PASS AIR THROUGH AN

INDUSTRIAL GRADE, PORTABLE HEPA FILTER CAPABLE OF FILTRATION RATES OF 300-800 CUBIC FEET PER

MINUTE (FT3//MIN), OR EXHAUST AIR DIRECTLY TO THE OUTSIDE IF APPROVED BY VAMC. IF EXHAUST MUST BE

TIED INTO A RE-CIRCULATED AIR SYSTEM, A PRE-FILTER AND HEPA FILTER SHOULD BE USED BEFORE

EXHAUST TO PREVENT CONTAMINATION OF THE DUCTS.

• ADJACENT AREAS: THE STATUS OF SEALED PENETRATIONS AND INTACT CEILING SHOULD BE VERIFIED DAILY.

• AIR EXCHANGE RATES AND PRESSURE RELATIONSHIPS: VAMC AND/OR CONTRACTOR WILL VERIFY AND

MAINTAIN PROPER RATES IN CRITICAL AREAS NEAR CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY AND ENSURE AIR IS NOT BEING

RE-CIRCULATED WITHOUT FILTRATION FROM THE CONSTRUCTION AREA ELSEWHERE. VAMC WILL MAKE

DETERMINATION ON PROVIDING FOR THE ACCOUNTABILITY AND FREQUENCY OF TESTING AIR PRESSURE

THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT.

• MANOMETERS SHOULD BE LOCATED ON ICRA PARTITION DOOR AND ON THE NON-CONSTRUCTION SIDE OF THE

PARTITION.

CONTAMINATION OF PATIENT ROOMS

• WORKSITE CLOTHING: CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL CLOTHING SHOULD BE FREE OF LOOSE SOIL AND DEBRIS

BEFORE LEAVING THE CONSTRUCTION AREA. IF PROTECTIVE APPAREL IS NOT WORK (E.G. COVERALLS, FOOTGEAR AND HEADGEAR) A HEPA-FILTERED VACUUM SHOULD BE USED TO REMOVE DUST FROM CLOTHING

BEFORE LEAVING THE BARRICADE. IF PROTECTIVE APPAREL IS UTILIZED THE CONTRACTOR SHALL

CONSTRUCT A SPACE OR ANTEROOM FOR CHANGING CLOTHING AND STORING EQUIPMENT (DESIGNATED

AREA). ALL EQUIPMENT, TOOLS, TOOL CARTS, MATERIALS, ETC. TRANSPORTED THROUGH OCCUPIED AREAS

SHALL BE MADE FREE FROM DUST AND MOISTURE BY VACUUMING AND WET WIPING BEFORE THEIR REMOVAL

FROM THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE OR WORK AREA.

• CONTRACTOR CLEANING: THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED IN A CLEAN MANNER BY

CONTRACTORS AND SWEPT OR HEPA-VACUUMED DAILY FOR MORE FREQUENTLY AS NEEDED TO MINIMIZE

DUST. ADJACENT AREAS THAT MAY BE IMPACTED BY THE CONSTRUCTION SHOULD BE DAMP MOPPED DAILY

OR MORE FREQUENTLY AS NEEDED. WALK-OFF MATS WITH TACKY OR ADHESIVE SURFACES SHOULD BE

UTILIZED TO MINIMIZE TRACKING OF HEAVY DIRT AND DUST FROM CONSTRUCTION AREAS.
