About this file

This document is a project manual for a state and local contract opportunity issued by the Iowa Department of Administrative Services for asbestos abatement work at the Woodward Resource Center located in Woodward, Iowa, within Dallas County and Woodbine City. The work includes the removal and disposal of asbestos-containing materials such as pipe insulation, drywall mud, flooring, and window glazing across multiple buildings on the campus. Key requirements include the use of proper personal protective equipment, worker decontamination procedures, negative air pressure containment, and waste packaging and disposal protocols. The contractor will be responsible for all preparation, abatement, cleaning, and final clearance testing, with the environmental consultant overseeing the project.

The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Pricing should account for all labor, materials, and disposal costs associated with the comprehensive asbestos abatement scope of work. No specific set-aside requirements are mentioned, and the incumbent contractor is not identified. Funding for the project will come from the state and local government budgets. The contract term is not explicitly stated, but the work is described as a discrete "Phase 3 Issuance 2" within the larger Woodward Resource Center program.
