This section covers all operations in which asbestos-containing materials (ACM) are encountered.

These procedures and equipment are required to protect workers and building occupants from airborne

Replace Water Tank at Camp Oliver Page 10 of 99 asbestos fibers and ACM dust and debris. Activities include OSHA Class I and Class II work operations. This section also includes containment, storage, transportation and disposal of the generated ACM wastes. Submit Detailed Drawings in accordance with EP 1110-1-11 and containing descriptions, and site layout to include worksite containment area(s), local exhaust systems locations, decontamination units and load-out units, other temporary waste storage facility, access tunnels, location of temporary utilities (electrical, water, sewer) and boundaries of each regulated area. When the detail sheets are not attached to this specification, the Contractor can get them from the web at:

http://140.194.76.129/publications/eng-pamphlets/ep1110-1-11/toc.htm

1.4.1 Abatement Work Tasks

The specific ACM to be abated is identified on the detailed plans, project drawings and Table 1. A summary for each work task including the appropriate RESPONSE ACTION DETAIL SHEET (item to be abated and methods to be used) and SET-UP DETAIL SHEETS (containment techniques to include safety precautions and methods) is included in Table 1, "Individual Work Task Data Elements" at the end of this section.

If the asbestos content is less than 10 percent, as determined by a method other than point counting, the asbestos content shall be verified by point counting. Any additional components identified as ACM that have been approved by the CO for removal shall be removed and will be paid for by an equitable adjustment to the contract price under the CONTRACT CLAUSE titled "changes". Sampling shall be conducted by personnel who have successfully completed the EPA Model Accreditation Plan (MAP) "Building Inspector" training course and is EPA/State certified/licensed as a "Building Inspector".

1.4.3 Wallboard/Joint Compound

Both composite samples of the wallboard and discrete samples of the components (wallboard and joint compound) have been tested. Composite samples of the wallboard system were tested and found to contain less than one percent asbestos. Discrete samples of the wallboard were tested and found to contain less than one percent asbestos.
