00001 Asbestos Testing.
The contractor shall furnish all materials, labor, equipment, training, transportation, and personnel necessary to accomplish asbestos testing and an asbestos summary report for all areas where the interior stabilization work is to be performed prior to initiating construction for the stabilization. The primary area of concern is with the insulation on the ductwork under the floor slab as identified in Division 2. This area is approximately 300 linear feet of which the USGS estimates that none will require
Asbestos Abatement related services. Air toxics regulations under the Clean Air Act require a thorough inspection where the demolition or renovation operation will occur. If the total amount of asbestos to be removed or disturbed is less than 260 linear feet, 160 square feet, or 35 cubic feet off of facility components (if the material could not be measured previously), then the Asbestos NESHAP does not require regulated asbestos-containing material to be removed before demolition or renovation activities occur.

C.3 GS0347 Indoor Air Quality During Construction (MAR 2008)
(a) The contractor shall control contaminants at the source and/or operate the space in such a manner that the GSA indicator levels for carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2 ), and formaldehyde (HCHO) are not exceeded. The indicator levels for office areas shall be:
CO - 9 parts per million (ppm) time-weighted average (TWA - 8-hour sample); CO2 - 1000 ppm (TWA); formaldehyde
- 0.1 ppm (TWA).
(b) The contractor shall make a reasonable attempt to apply insecticides, paints, glues, adhesives, and heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system cleaning compounds with highly volatile or irritating organic compounds, outside of working hours. The contractor shall provide at least 72 hours advance notice to the Government before applying noxious chemicals in occupied spaces, and adequately ventilate those spaces during and after application.
(c) To the greatest extent possible, contractor shall sequence the installation of finish materials so that materials that will be high emitters of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are installed and allowed to cure before installing interior finish materials, especially soft materials that are woven, fibrous, or porous in nature, that may adsorb contaminants and release them over time.
(d) Where demolition or construction work occurs adjacent to occupied space, contractor shall erect appropriate barriers (noise, dust, odor, etc.) and take necessary steps to minimize interference with the occupants. This includes maintaining acceptable temperature, humidity and ventilation in the occupied areas during window removal, window replacement, or similar types of work.
(e) A final flush-out period of 48 to 72 hours should be provided before occupancy. Contractor shall ventilate with 100 percent outside air at the recommended air change rate (ASHRAE Standard 62) during installation of materials and finishes. If outside air would cause unacceptable inside temperature levels, humidity levels, and/or air quality, an alternate ventilation plan may be submitted to the Contracting Officer for approval.
(f) The contractor shall promptly investigate indoor air quality (IAQ) complaints and shall implement the necessary controls to address the complaint when requested to do so by the Contracting Officer.
(g) The Government reserves the right to conduct independent IAQ assessments and detailed studies in space it occupies, as well as in space serving the Government-leased space (e.g., common use areas, mechanical rooms, HVAC systems, etc.). The contractor shall assist the Government in its assessments and detailed studies by making available information on building operations and contractor activities, and providing access to space for assessment and testing, if required, and implement corrective measures required by the Contracting Officer.

H.8 USE AND REPORTING OF CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE INFORMATION (DEC 2015) (DOI-AAAP- 0050) Notice to Contractors - CPARS (DEC 2015
NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS
Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (December 2015)
1) FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR 42.15.
2) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS. CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action.
3) We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer (CO) with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official (AO). Information in the report must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.
4) When your Contractor Representative(s) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/.
5) Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the AO will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/.
a) Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the 6.evaluation, or return the evaluation without comment.
b) Your comments should focus on objective facts in the AO's narrative and should a)provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance.
c) All information provided should be reviewed for accuracy prior to submission.
d) If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating "No comment" in the space provided, and then selecting "Accept the Ratings and Close the Evaluation".
e) Your response is due within 60 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR. On day 15, the evaluation will become available in PPIRS-RC marked as "Pending" with or without comments and whether or not it has been closed.
f) If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 60 days, it will automatically be returned to the Government and will be annotated: "The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment."
6) The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation:
a) Protect the evaluation as source selection information. After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the CO for instructions.
b) Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control.
c) Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, pre-award surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes.
7) If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the CO no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 60-day review period.
8) A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.
