2017 3YR ahera RE-inspection

Amendment One (01) done to Request for Proposal No. A17PS01059:



1. To answer Question Asked and the Governments Response: QUESTION ASKED:Regarding task #3 ¿ Sampling:



The scope of work states (see below in red) That all schools ¿including school buildings with no asbestos reported¿ i.e. asbestos free letters, will be inspected. It then further states samples will be collected for each Homogeneous area Identified and not previously sampled.



In the case of the schools with the asbestos free letters, that would seem to mean sample every homogeneous area at the school. Is that the intent of task three?



Task Three ¿ Sampling:

Inspection shall be completed in all buildings at each of the 33 schools listed, including school buildings with no asbestos reported in 2014 to be in compliance with the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act as published in 40 CFR 763.86 of the final rule and notice which includes sampling. A minimum of three samples will be collected for each Homogenous Area (HA) identified and not previously samples. Sampling will be conducted at the school at the time of the initial reinspection and shall be included in the bid price for the school inspection. No reimbursement for extra/separate trips to take samples will be paid by DEM and no contract amendments for mileage to sample will be submitted by the contractor.

GOVERNMENT RESPONSE: The sampling is not to include Asbestos Free Letters
