abatement work. The Contractor shall consult with the Owner or their representative for the location of available electrical service outside of the work areas and shall tie into the existing system at a location acceptable to the Owner or their representative. Tie-in shall be completed by a licensed electrician. The service cost of electrical power used from existing facilities shall be paid for by the Owner.

C. Provide circuit and branch wiring, with area distribution boxes located so that power and

lighting is available throughout the project by the use of construction type power cords. All branch circuits must originate from a ground fault circuit interrupter located outside the containment. In general, run wiring overhead and rise vertically where wiring will be least exposed to damage from construction operations.

D. Provide adequate artificial lighting for all areas of work when natural light is not adequate

for work. E. Provide receptacle outlets equipped with ground-fault circuit interrupters, reset button and

pilot light, for plug-in connection of power tools and equipment. F. Use only grounded extension cords; use "hard-service" cords where exposed to abrasion

and traffic. Use single lengths or use waterproof connectors to connect separate lengths of electric cords if single length will not reach areas of work.

G. Only explosive-proof electrical equipment may be used in the containment area. All

electrical equipment used in containment areas shall meet the safety requirement described in 29 CFR 1910.307.

RFB 2021-01 Page 20 of 50


3.2 PRE-ASBESTOS ABATEMENT PREPARATION: A. CONTAINMENT AREA PREPARATION:

1. Prior to any abatement work in an area, the area shall be sealed off to anyone other than trained personnel and authorized visitors. Signs shall be erected around the perimeter in accordance with EPA and OSHA regulations and this specification. The Asbestos Abatement Contractor shall take the necessary precautions to protect against unauthorized entry during the entire abatement process including overnight.

2. All openings between the containment areas and adjacent areas, including but not

limited to windows, doorways, ventilation openings, drains, grills, ducts, etc., shall be sealed with two (2) layers of 6-mil poly.

3. All HVAC intakes and exhaust openings and any seams in system components shall be

double-sealed with 6-mil poly. Any remaining exposed penetrations, ductwork, electrical boxes, and HVAC vents shall be wet-wiped and sealed with poly.

4. At least one polyethylene wall to every containment shall be fitted with a piece of clear

Plexiglas, measuring 18" x 18", to allow observation of at least 51% of contained space from outside.

5. Approval of the Asbestos Consultant or his on-site Project Manager shall be secured for

the containment prior to the start of abatement work. A pre-Abatement checklist shall be successfully completed before removal is authorized.

3.3 ASBESTOS REMOVAL: A. CONTAINMENT – OSHA CLASS I/II WORK PRACTICES

1. The above locations shall be prepared with a negative pressure containment area as

noted in Section 3.2.A of this specification. 2. In areas with contaminated floors, all visible asbestos debris shall be picked up using the

procedures outlined below before covering floor with poly.

a. Establish a regulated containment area. b. Set HEPA filtration and shower decontamination unit. c. Pick up debris. This should be done before abatement to reduce the spread of

contamination.

RFB 2021-01 Page 21 of 50


3. Except as noted herein and/or in drawings, all asbestos to undergo abatement shall be sprayed with water containing a wetting agent. The wetting agent shall be 50% poly-oxethylene ester, or the equivalent, mixed proportionately one-ounce to five gallons of water. This amended water shall be applied to the material as a fine low-pressure spray to minimize fiber release. Affected material shall be saturated sufficiently throughout the removal process so that no dry asbestos is removed. A continuous fine mist of amended water shall be maintained in ambient work air and on all containment poly to maximize fiber control.

4. Immediately following ACBM removal, the wet asbestos shall be packed into labeled

true 6-mil poly bags, or at least a dart impact 216 grams and tear resistance of M.D. of 216 grams and T.D. of 2068 grams, or sealed with two (2) layers of 6-mil poly, or at least a dart impact of 270 grams and tear resistance of M.D. of 512 grams and T.D. of 2067 grams, to prevent drying. No accumulation of asbestos debris shall occur on scaffolding or floor. All bagged material shall be packed, deflated with a HEPA vacuum, and sealed inside true 6-mil plastic bags or fiberboard drums with OSHA & NESHAP-required labels as described in Section 1.10. Disposal shall be made in an approved landfill that will accept asbestos waste.

3.4 FINAL CLEARANCE VISUAL INSPECTION AND AIR TESTING: A. The Consultant shall be notified for a visual inspection and final clearance air testing. The

Consultant shall visually inspect the containment for any visible debris or potential contamination. Upon a successful visual inspection, final clearance air samples shall be collected in the containment area.

B. Prior to beginning the final clearance air testing, the Consultant shall agitate the air and

surfaces within the containment using a leaf blower. A minimum of three (3) final clearance samples, with a minimum sample volume of 1,250 liters, shall be collected for the containment area. Phase Contrast Microscopy (PCM) shall be employed to confirm final testing results in any abatement area.

C. Upon completion of final clearance air testing, any remaining barriers and the

decontamination facility shall be removed. The poly, duct tape, and decontamination facility material shall be disposed of as asbestos waste. A final inspection shall be carried out by the Asbestos Consultant or his Project Manager to ensure that no debris is produced during the dismantling operations.

D. If the results of the visual inspection or final clearance air testing are not satisfactory,

thorough wet cleaning and/or HEPA vacuuming shall be repeated until the required decontamination levels have been confirmed.

RFB 2021-01 Page 22 of 50


3.5 PROJECT AIR MONITORING:

1. Contractor work practices shall be documented by the Consultant. Air monitoring shall continue both inside the work area and its contiguous environment to ensure full compliance with specifications and all applicable regulations. Air samples shall be collected inside the containment, outside the containment but inside the building, the HEPA unit exhaust, immediately outside the entrance to the decontamination unit, and outside the bag-out facility, if present.

2. Air contamination levels shall be maintained outside the containment areas at or below

0.010 f/cc. Detection of fiber counts above 0.010 f/cc outside a containment area shall result in immediate cessation of abatement activities and decontamination of areas where elevated fiber counts have occurred. Work inside the containment area shall not resume until the contamination source has been corrected and ambient air levels have been re-established outside the containment area at 0.010 f/cc or less.

3. The Abatement Contractor is responsible for monitoring employees to comply with 29

CFR 1926.1101. For the duration of the project, full-shift personal monitoring for each job category must take place each shift, at times when exposure to asbestos fibers is expected to be highest.

3.6 CONTRACTOR FINAL REPORT: A final report shall be prepared by the Abatement Contractor and presented to the Owner. The final report shall include, but not be limited to, the following: A. A copy of the original NESHAP notification form and any subsequent amendments. B. The completed Waste Manifest Form. C. All employee asbestos physical forms. D. All employee training certificates and license or registration certificates. E. Visitors sign-in log. F. Containment sign-in log.

G. Daily reports signed by the onsite Supervisor.

H. Final inspection list.
