1.26 ASBESTOS - (Occupational Health and Environment)

(a) THE CONTRACTOR IS WARNED THAT EXPOSURE TO AIRBORNE ASBESTOS HAS

BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH FOUR DISEASES: LUNG CANCER, CERTAIN GASTROINTESTINAL

CANCERS, PLURAL OR PERITONEAL MESOTHELIOMA AND ASBESTOS. 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 nonfriable asbestos containing material has been identified in area(s) where contract work is to be performed. Friable asbestos containing material means any material that contains more than 1 percent asbestos by weight that hand pressure can crumble, pulverize or reduce to powder when dry. Nonfriable asbestos containing materials do not 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 which release airborne asbestos fibers at concentrations in excess of those established. 29 CFR 1926.58 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 61.40 - 40 CFR61.156 for the control of asbestos emissions to the environment and the handling and disposal of asbestos wastes.

(d) When contract work activities are carried out in locations where the potential exists for exposure to airborne asbestos fibers as described in (b) or where asbestos waste will be generated, the contractor shall assure that all measures necessary to provide effective protection to
