C.1.8.17. Safety, Health, and Accident Prevention Plan. The Contractor shall submit, as a part of its proposal the Safety, Health, and Accident Prevention Plan for this contract.

The Government will review this submitted plan as a part of the award process. Post award the Government will approve/comment/disapprove the submitted plan. The Contractor shall employ means necessary to furnish an acceptable plan. This approved plan shall then become a part of the contract. Development of this Safety, Health, and accident Prevention Plan shall be the responsibility of the Contractor. This plan shall be fully developed and submitted at no additional cost to the Government. The plan shall be considered as a requirement of the contract to be included in the Contractor’s coefficient.

C.1.8.18. Definition of Hazardous Materials. Refer to hazardous and toxic materials/substances included in Subparts H and Z of 29 CFR 1910. Those most commonly encountered include asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), explosives, and radioactive material, but may include others not listed. The most likely products to contain asbestos are sprayed-on fireproofing, insulation, boiler lagging, pipe covering, shingles, siding, roofing felt, mastic floor tiles and other common sources of asbestos.

C.1.8.19. Asbestos

(a) The Contractor is warned that exposure to airborne asbestos has been associated with four diseases: lung cancer, certain gastrointestinal cancers, pleural or peritoneal mesothelioma and asbestosis. Studies indicate there are significantly increased health dangers to persons exposed to asbestos who smoke, and further, to family members and other persons who become indirectly exposed as a result of the exposed worker bringing asbestos- laden work clothing home to be laundered.

(b) The Contractor is advised that friable and/or non-friable asbestos-containing material may be encountered in area(s) where contract work is to be performed. Asbestos-containing material (ACM) is any material that contains more than one percent asbestos by weight. Friable ACM is material that with hand pressure can crumble, pulverize or reduce to power when dry. Nonfriable asbestos-containing materials are materials in which asbestos fibers are bound by a matrix material, saturant, impregnant or coating. Non-friable ACM does 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.

(c) Care must be taken to avoid releasing, or causing to be released, asbestos fibers into the atmosphere where they may be inhaled or ingested. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set standards at 29 CFR 1910.1001 for exposure to airborne concentrations of asbestos fibers, methods of compliance, medical surveillance, housekeeping procedures, and other measures that must be taken when working with or around asbestos-containing materials. 29 CFR 1910.1001 has been identified as applicable to construction (29 CFR 1926.55 gases, vapors, fumes, dusts and mists). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established standards at 40 CFR 61.140-156 for the control of asbestos emissions to the environment and handling and disposal of asbestos wastes.

(d) Friable ACM is not permitted by current criteria and shall not be used in new construction or modification projects (ETL 110-1-118, 27 May 1983).

(e) Maintenance, modification, or demolition activities where exposure to asbestos dust may occur from previously installed friable or non-friable ACM will be identified by the Contractor. All precautions, to include proper work practices, medical surveillance, respiratory protection, industrial hygiene, and environmental protection requirements of OSHA (29 CFR 19210.1002), EPA (40 CFR 61.140-156) and DA Circular 40-83-4, as applicable, shall be strictly adhered to.

(f) The Government will identify the known existence of asbestos in areas where work is to be performed under individual Job Orders prior to the issuance of the order. However, the Contractor shall identify and report any unforeseen findings of asbestos to the COR prior to initiating any actions under a Job Order.

(g) “Asbestos”, including chrysotile, ammosite, crocidolite, tremolite asbestos, anthophyllite asbestos, actinolite asbestos and any of these materials that have been chemically treated and/or altered is prohibited from incorporation into the work under this contract. This prohibition does not apply to nor prevent the removal and disposal of asbestos materials.

C.1.8.20.2. Compliance with Regulations. All work, including the handling of hazardous materials or the disturbance of dismantling of structures containing hazardous materials shall comply with the applicable requirements of 29 CFR 1926/1910. Work involving the disturbance or dismantling of asbestos or asbestos-containing material; the demolition of structures containing asbestos; and/or the disposal and removal of asbestos, shall also comply with the requirements of 40 CFR, Part 61, Subparts A and B, ETL 1110-1-118 and DA Circular 40-83-4.
