About this file

This is a specification section for management of lead, cadmium, and chromium (VI) during renovation, demolition, construction, removal, and abatement work at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, Kittery, Maine. The specification establishes comprehensive safety, health, and environmental requirements for contractors performing work involving materials containing these hazardous substances.

Key requirements include: contractors must submit a detailed Lead, Cadmium, and Chromium (VI) Compliance Plan signed by a Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH), Certified Safety Professional (CSP), or licensed lead-based paint abatement Supervisor/Project Designer in Maine; designate a qualified Competent Person to oversee work and perform air, wipe, and soil sampling; provide medical examinations and training for all exposed workers in accordance with OSHA standards (29 CFR 1926.62, 1926.1126, 1926.1127); establish negative pressure enclosures with HEPA filtration maintaining minimum 0.02 inches of water pressure differential; conduct air, wipe, and soil sampling per ASTM standards with results submitted within specified timeframes; and maintain clearance thresholds of 40 µg/sq.ft. for lead on floors, 250 µg/sq.ft. on window sills, and below baseline concentrations for chromium (VI) and cadmium. Additional requirements include implementing a waste characterization sampling plan with Navy Code 106.3 approval, providing decontamination facilities, notifying the Contracting Officer 20 days before work commencement, turning hazardous waste to Building 357 by end of shift, providing two sets of personal protective equipment to Government personnel, and submitting pressure differential recordings within 24 hours of each workday. All non-compliance will result in work stoppage, nonpayment, and potential contractor removal, with associated delays entirely the contractor's responsibility.
