C.17 HARARDOUS MATERIALS

Any material suspected of being hazardous that is encountered during performance of a project shall immediately be brought to the attention of the Contracting Officer, at which time a determination will be made as to whether hazardous material testing shall be performed.

If the Contracting Officer directs the contractor to perform tests, and/or the material is found to be of a hazardous nature requiring additional protective measures, a contract modification may be required, subject to equitable adjustment under the terms of the contract.

The contractor is advised that friable and/or non-friable asbestos-containing material may be encountered in project areas.

Friable asbestos-containing material is any material that contains more than one percent asbestos by weight, and that hand pressure can crumble, pulverize, or reduce to powder when dry. Non-friable asbestos containing materials are materials in which asbestos fibers are bound by a matrix material, saturation, impregnation, or coating. Non-friable asbestos containing materials do not normally release airborne asbestos fiber during routine handling and end-use.

However, excessive fiber concentrations may be produced during uncontrolled abrading, sanding, drilling, cutting, machining, removal, demolition, or other similar activities. 29 CFR 1910.1001 shall be referenced in the event asbestos-containing materials are encountered. Friable asbestos-containing materials are not authorized for use in new construction or maintenance projects.

C.18 HAZARDOUS MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION

Submit Safety Data Sheet (SDS)’s as required per 29 CFR 1910.1200 as amended. The contractor must provide one digital copy of each SDS for applicable hazardous chemicals used and/or provided in performance of any work under this contract.

C. Any floating silt screens or similar construction aids shall be brand new (unused) or have been newly washed and disinfected; submit documentation.

D. Comply with any other specific protocol required by the station to minimize potential introduction of invasive species such as rodents or plants that could be transported by equipment, materials, personnel, or food products.

C.20 MATERIAL & EQUIPMENT TRANSPORTATION, HANDLING AND STORAGE

A. Contactor shall have a representative on site to receive material deliveries, and the contractor shall remain responsible for all material deliveries whether their representative is on site at the time of delivery or not.

B. Government-owned equipment is not available for Contractor’s use to accomplish any Work, and Government buildings and other facilities are not available for storage of Contractor’s materials, equipment, and tools.
