1.20 TIME EXTENSIONS FOR UNUSUALLY SEVERE WEATHER

This provision specifies the procedure for the determination of time extensions for unusually severe weather. In order for the Contracting Officer to award a time extension under this clause, the following conditions must be satisfied:

The weather experienced at the project site during the contract period must be found to be unusually severe, that is, more severe than the adverse weather anticipated for the project location during any given month.

Indicate the location of the National Weather Service office closest to the site. See: https://www.weather.gov/srh/nwsoffices The Contractor shall make his own investigations and determinations as to weather conditions at the site. Data may be obtained from various National Weather Service offices located generally at airports of principal cities, the nearest to this project being: Paducah, KY.

The unusually severe weather must actually cause a delay to the completion of the project. The delay must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor.

DOCUMENT 00 80 00.00 06 Page 6

The following schedule of monthly anticipated adverse weather delays is based on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or similar data for the project location and will constitute the base line for monthly weather time evaluations. The Contractor's progress schedule must reflect these anticipated adverse weather delays in weather dependent activities.

MONTHLY ANTICIPATED ADVERSE WEATHER DELAY

WORK DAYS BASED ON FIVE (5) DAY WORK WEEK

JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC

1.33 CONSTRUCTION HAZARD COMMUNICATION

The Contractor is required to comply with the requirements of the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard in alignment with the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) (29 CFR 1926.59). This standard is designed to inform workers of safe and appropriate methods of working with hazardous substances in the workplace. The standard has five requirements, and every hazardous or potentially hazardous substance used or stored in the work area is subject to all five. They are:

(1) Hazard Classification. Any company which produces or imports a chemical or compound must conduct a hazard classification of the substance to determine its potential health or physical hazard. The hazard evaluation consists of an investigation of all the available scientific evidence about the substance. The Contractor is required to assure that all producers (manufacturer/distributors) have performed these classifications and transmit the required information with any hazardous materials being used or stored on the project site. From the hazard classification, a substance may be classified as a health hazard or a physical hazard. These classifications are then further broken down into hazard categories according to the severity of the effect:

Health Hazards Physical Hazards

Carcinogens Combustible liquids

Irritants Compressed gases

Sensitizers Explosives

Corrosives Flammables

Toxic substances Organic peroxides

Highly toxic substances Unstable substances

DOCUMENT 00 80 00.00 06 Page 12

Health Hazards Physical Hazards

Substances harmful to specific organs or parts of the body

Water-reactive substances

(2) Warning Labels. If a chemical is hazardous or potentially hazardous, the producer or importer must affix a label to every container of that chemical before it leaves his facility. The Contractor must assure these labels are attached and legible. The label must identify the hazard symbol/pictograms, signal words, hazard statements, product name or identifier (identify hazardous ingredients, where appropriate), precautionary statements and pictograms, supplier identification, and supplemental information. If the hazardous substance is transferred to another container, that container must then be labeled, tagged, or marked with the name of the chemical and the appropriate hazard warning. Warning labels shall be replaced immediately if they are defaced or removed.

(3) Safety Data Sheets. The producer or importer must also supply a safety data sheet (SDS) that follows the 16 heading format as defined by GHS. The Contractor must keep these available in the work area where the substance is used, so that the people using the substance can easily review important safety and health information, such as:

(i) Emergency procedures for leaks, spills, fire and first aid.

(ii) Precautions necessary for use, handling, and storage.

(iii) Useful facts about the substance's physical or chemical properties.

(iv) Regulatory information and any other pertinent information including information on preparation and revision of the SDS.

(4) Work Area Specific Training. Because of hazardous substance may react differently depending on how it is used or the environment of the work area, the Contractor must conduct work area specific training;

special training which takes the Contractor's operations, environment, and work policies into consideration. Work area training presents:

The hazardous substances which are present in the work place and the hazards they pose.

Ways to protect against those hazards, such as protective equipment, emergency procedures, and safe handling.

Where the SDS's are kept, and an explanation of the labeling system.

Where the Contractor's written Hazard Communication Program is located.

(5) The Written Hazard Communication Program. In accordance with OSHA and the EM 385-1-1 requirements, the Contractor must prepare a written Hazard Communication Program. This document will be included in the Contractor's Accident Prevention Plan. This document states the

DOCUMENT 00 80 00.00 06 Page 13 hazardous or toxic agent inventory, how the Contractor plans to ensure that hazardous materials are appropriately labeled, how and where SDS's will be maintained, and how employees will be provided with specific information and training.
