1.3.1.2 No Smoking Policy

Smoking is prohibited within and outside of all buildings on installation, except in designated smoking areas. This applies to existing buildings, buildings under construction and buildings under renovation. Discarding tobacco materials other than into designated tobacco receptacles is considered littering and is subject to fines. The Contracting Officer will identify designated smoking areas.

1.3.2 Working Hours

Working Hours Regular working hours will consist of an 8 hour period, between 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding Government holidays. Night and weekend work may be necessary as required by the Contracting Officer's Representative so as to not impact ongoing operations of the facility. When requested, the contractor will amend their working hours as needed to accommodate ongoing Watervliet Arsenal operations. The contractor may submit a request for equitable adjustment for costs solely due to the change in working hours directed by the U.S. Government.

Scheduling of major demolition activities that are particularly noisy or involve excessive vibration must be coordinated with the Contracting Officer and may be outside regular working hours. Excessive noise is defined as exceeding 85-dBA when the equipment is in use or activity is ongoing (measure by a sound level meter set for A scale, slow response).

The vicinity of measure is defined as a distance not to exceed 1 meter from the equipment or activity. Techniques such as sound level averaging or exposure time weighting shall not be used to meet this requirement.

a. Open trenches or road restrictions will not be permitted without the approval of the Contracting Officer.

b. Access ways must be fully usable.

c. All cost for conformance with the above stated requirements must be included with the lump sum contract amount and no claim for extra cost must be considered.

1.3.4 Work Outside Regular Hours

Work outside regular working hours requires Contracting Officer approval.

Make application 14 calendar days prior to such work to allow arrangements to be made by the Government for inspecting the work in progress, giving the specific dates, hours, location, type of work to be performed, contract number and project title. Based on the justification provided, the Contracting Officer may approve work outside regular hours. During periods of darkness, the different parts of the work must be lighted in a manner approved by the Contracting Officer.

The existing buildings and their contents must be kept secure at all times. Provide temporary closures as required to maintain security as directed by the Contracting Officer.

Provide dust covers or protective enclosures to protect existing work that remains, and Government material located in the finished areas during the construction period.

Relocate movable furniture as required to perform the work, protect the furniture, and replace the furniture in their original locations upon completion of the work. Leave attached equipment in place, and protect them against damage, or temporarily disconnect, relocate, protect, and reinstall them at the completion of the work.

The Government will not remove and relocate other Government property in the areas of the buildings scheduled to receive work.

1.3.6 Utility Cutovers and Interruptions

a. Make utility cutovers and interruptions after normal working hours or on Saturdays, Sundays, and Government holidays. Conform to procedures required in paragraph WORK OUTSIDE REGULAR HOURS.

b. Ensure that new utility lines are complete, except for the connection, before interrupting existing service.

1.4 DIGGING PERMIT

The Contractor must be responsible for obtaining a digging permit prior to commencing excavations. No excavation whether minor or major including trenching, side-walk replacement, etc. will be permitted without an approved digging permit. Contractor must carefully avoid contact or damage with known or identified underground utilities. Work on or near roadways must be flagged in accordance with EM 385-1-1, which forms a part of these specifications. Work located along the alert force route cannot cause blockage, and the Contractor must maintain un-obstructed access for alert force traffic at all times.
