These fans have been Wall mounted exhaust fans in previous BEQ projects that we have bid. Should these exhaust fans be installed as wall mounted instead of inline for this project?

ANSWER: EF-2,3,4 should be installed as wall mounted with no ductwork.

9. QUESTION: HP135 – For the 14,000sf of asbestos silver membrane in attic. Due to the roof being a truss roof over a flat roof, access to demo is an issue. Will the existing roof need to be separated and craned off to be demolished on the ground by hand or can we use equipment to demo/separate the roof while attached?

ANSWER: If the material is in concrete, the concrete will need to be no larger than 1’x1’ pieces and with no rebar sticking out. ACM cannot be taken off base.

15. QUESTION: Does the installation have the salvage rights for all debris?

ANSWER: The installation does not have salvage rights written in this contract.

16. QUESTION: The transformer at 165 does that get returned back to the Government?

ANSWER: We assume "165" is incorrect and it should have been referring to HP135 as that is the building slated for demo. Both transformers are fed thru and need to remain on site; we will disconnect the secondary when needed but transformers cannot be removed.

17. QUESTION: Has the site been determined to have no ordnances?

ANSWER: HP505 does not fall within the UXO-7 boundaries and has not been investigated for UXO. Because the NEPA for this project did not define the project extents and to make sure the utilities are covered we noted the UXO-07 requirements. See the green areas of page 8 on the attached DM.

10% of the UXO-07 area was surveyed using digital geophysical mapping. Out of 1433 geophysical anomalies, only 3 UXO items were identified. No high risk UXO was identified in the UXO-07 area. This area was given closed for investigation as there was a very low probability of encountering subsurface UXO. 3R training is required for any construction workers throughout MCB Camp Lejeune.

18. QUESTION: Are there any PCB in the ballast of existing light fixtures?

ANSWER: Any building built pre-1978 or per the EPA July 1, 1979, is known to have this type of ballast. If the building was built after this date, there should be a label that states “No PCB’s.

HP505 was built in 1984 so it shouldn’t be an issue. As far as we are aware, there should be no PCB’s left on the base.

19. QUESTION: Is there a DPAS letter issued for this project for acceleration of materials

ANSWER: Yes; will be issued along with Award Letter

20. QUESTION: What are the M1-M6 Corridors noted on the finish schedule? Are there any finish notes for the Mechanical Rooms? Are there any notes for a sealer to be provided on the exterior walkways?

Enclosure 3: Applicable Conditions

AST/UST/IR/MRP (Soil):

1. If contaminants are suspected through odors or visual observation during construction activities, immediately stop work, call 911, and contact EQB at 910-451-9641 for further instructions.

2. There are no known monitoring wells in the project areas but if an unmarked well is discovered and inadvertently damaged, immediately contact EQB at 910-451-9641 for further instructions.

3. The proposed project area is near previously investigated historic surface danger zones (UXO Site 07) that warranted no further action, see attached map. Soil taken off base from this site may need to be screened for UXO, please coordinate with the IR PM.

3R UXO Safety Awareness Training is required for all construction personnel. Training is available at http://www.lejeune.marines.mil/Offices-Staff/Environmental-Mgmt/Training-Video/. Should a munitions-related item be found during construction, follow appropriate notifications as detailed in the 3R training. Any munitions related item found during project construction should additionally be reported to EMD within 10 days (T.Richard, 910-451-9641) to determine if additional evaluation and precautions are necessary (Explosives Safety Submission, UXO Tech Support, etc). Additional UXO safety resources available at: Construction - DENIX (osd.mil) https://www.denix.osd.mil/uxo/for-work-crews/construction/index.html

4. This project is within the Aquifer Use Control Boundary associated with IR Site 96, Operable Unit (OU) 22. All work conducted in an identified EPA NPL OU or RCRA SWMU must adhere to the provisions detailed in 29 CFR 1910.120 Occupational Safety and Health Standards, Hazardous Materials, Hazardous waste operations and emergency response.

5. If drilling fluids or other substances/compounds/products are injected into the ground surface, Safety Data Sheets must be sent to EQB for review and screening of potential contaminants.

Water Quality Program/ECB:

1. Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act:

Installation or repair of any piping, fittings, fixtures, solder or flux providing water for possible human consumption must be “lead-free” as defined by the Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act (RLDWA). The RLDWA revised the definition of lead free to a weighted average of 0.25% of the wetted surfaces of plumbing products and 0.2% lead for solder and flux. A methodology for calculating the weighted average of wetted surfaces can be found at www.epa.gov.

2. Material types, diameters, and lengths of new (and replaced/demolished) potable

Enclosure (3) water lines and wastewater lines should be provided to PWD GIS.
