Lock and Dam 4: there are 4 parking stalls available for the contractor at the north end of the building. If necessary, an additional parking area is available on the south end of the entrance road. Some staging room is available on the north end of the building. Additional staging room is available on the south end of the building by the garage if the contractor does not block any equipment from getting out of the garage. The north parking and staging area is circled in Figure 2 below. The additional south parking area is indicated by the large star and the additional staging area is indicated by the small star.

Figure 2

Lock and Dam 5: the Contractor will be allowed to use the parking lot indicated by the red x in Figure 3 below.

1.11.1.1 Environmental pollution and damage is defined as the presence of chemical, physical or biological elements or agents which adversely affect human health or welfare; unfavorably alter ecological balances of importance to human life; affect other species of importance to humankind; or degrade the environment aesthetically, culturally and/or historically.

1.11.1.2 Environmental Protection is defined as the prevention/control of pollution and habitat disruption that may occur to the environment during construction. The control of environmental pollution and damage requires consideration of land, water, and air; biological and cultural resources; and includes management of visual aesthetics; noise; solid chemical, gaseous, and liquid waste; as well as other pollutants.

1.11.1.3 Contractor Generated Hazardous Waste is defined as material that if abandoned or disposed may meet the definition of hazardous waste. These waste streams would typically consist of materials brought on site by the Contractor to execute work, but are not fully consumed during the course of construction. Examples include, but are not limited to, excess paint thinners, waste thinners, excess paints, excess solvents, or waste solvent.

1.11.2 SAFETY DATA SHEETS. In accordance with EM 385-1-1, a copy of the Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and the maximum quantity of each hazardous material to be on site at any given time shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer for information only.

1.11.3 PROTECTION OF FEATURES. This paragraph supplements the Contract Clause 52.236-

9 PROTECTION OF EXISTING VEGETATION, STRUCTURES, EQUIPMENT, UTILITIES, AND

IMPROVEMENTS. Prior to start of any onsite construction activities, the Contractor and the Contracting Officer shall make a joint condition survey and take pre-project photographs of the Contractor’s Staging area and the Contractor’s work area.

Immediately following the survey, the Contractor shall prepare a brief report including the pre-project photos along with the condition of trees, shrubs and grassed areas immediately adjacent to the site of work and adjacent to the Contractor's assigned storage area and access route(s), as applicable. This survey report shall be signed by both the Contractor and the Contracting Officer upon mutual agreement as to its accuracy and completeness. The Contractor shall protect those environmental features included in the survey report and any indicated on the drawings, regardless of interference which their preservation may cause to the Contractor's work under the contract.

1.11.4 CONTRACTOR FACILITIES AND WORK AREAS. The Contractor's staging areas shall be placed in areas designated in Figures 1 through 4. Temporary movement or relocation of Contractor facilities shall be made only when approved.

1.11.5 SOLID WASTES. Solid wastes shall be placed in containers which are emptied on a regular schedule. Handling, storage, and disposal shall be conducted to prevent contamination. Segregation measures shall be employed so that no hazardous or toxic waste will become co-mingled with solid waste. The Contractor shall transport solid waste off the construction site and dispose of it in compliance with Federal, State, and local requirements for solid waste disposal. A Subtitle D RCRA permitted landfill shall be the minimum acceptable off-site solid waste disposal option. The Contractor shall verify that the selected transporters and disposal facilities have the necessary permits and licenses to operate. The Contractor shall submit the name and location of the solid waste disposal facility to the Contracting Officer for information only.

1.11.6 CHEMICALS AND CHEMICAL WASTES. Chemicals shall be dispensed ensuring no spillage to the ground or water.

3. EXECUTION.

3.1 DEMOLITION. The Contractor shall route out and replace any existing flexible vertical surface joint material between building panels and around all windows and doors and louvers, as well as the vertical control and expansion joints at Locks 3, 4, 5, and 5A. The Contractor shall take any necessary precautions to avoid damage to existing items that are to remain in place, to be reused, or to remain the property of the government. The Contractor shall sufficiently clean and resurface the joint according to the join sealant manufacturer’s instructions.

3.2 WORKMANSHIP.

3.2.1 Installation. Do not use sealant that has exceeded its shelf life or has jelled and cannot be discharged in a continuous flow from the sealant gun. Apply sealants in accordance with the manufacturer’s written instructions with a gun having a nozzle that fits the joint width.

Work sealants into the joint so as to fill the joints solidly without air pockets. Tool sealant after application to ensure adhesion. Apply sealant uniformly smooth and free of wrinkles.

Upon completion of sealant application, roughen partially filled or unfilled joints, apply additional sealant, and tool smooth. Apply sealer over sealants in accordance with the sealant manufacturer’s written instructions.

3.2.2 Protection and Cleaning. Protect areas adjacent to joints from sealant smears. Masking tape may be used for this purpose if removed 5 to 10 minutes after the joint is filled and no residual tape marks remain.

3.2.3 Final Cleaning. Upon completion of sealant application remove remaining smears and stains and leave the work in a clean and neat condition. Immediately remove fresh sealant that has been smeared on adjacent masonry, rub clean with solvent, and remove solvent residue in accordance with sealant/solvent manufacturer’s printed instructions. Allow excess sealant to cure for 24 hours then remove by wire brushing or sanding. Remove resulting debris.

3.2.4 Final Appearance. Each joint shall be tooled to a neat and smooth visual appearance.

The Contracting Officer reserves the right to reject acceptance of portions of sealant filled joints or entire sealant filled joints if they do not meet a reasonable level of workmanship.

Joint sealant that appears rough, is not neatly tooled, appears wrinkled, is not completely adhered to the masonry, or if pinholes are present, will not be measured for payment and shall be completely removed and re-installed at the Contractor’s expense.

3.2.5 Weeps. Existing weeps around window sills or as part of a masonry cavity wall shall be replaced in kind, if present. In no case will open voids be allowed in lieu of providing a fiber weep material. Replacement weeps shall match existing.
