Employment Opportunity clause, the Illinois Fair Employment Practices Act or the Fair Employment Practices Commission's Rules and Regulations for Public Contracts, the contractor may be declared not responsible and therefore ineligible for future contracts or subcontracts with the State of Illinois or any of its political subdivisions or municipal corporations, and the contract may be cancelled or voided in whole or in part, and such other sanctions or penalties may be imposed or remedies invoked as provided by statute or regulations.

During the performance of this contract, the Contractor agrees as follows: (1) That, it will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment

because of race, color, religion, sex, national origin or ancestry; and further that it will examine all job classifications to determine if minority persons or women are underutilized and will take appropriate affirmative action to rectify any such under utilization.

(2) That, if it hires additional employees in order to perform this contract, or any portion

hereof, it will determine the availability (in accordance with the Commission's Rules and Regulations for Public Contracts) of minorities and women in the area(s) from which it may reasonably recruit and it will hire for each job classification for which employees are hired in such a way that minorities and women are not under-utilized.

(3) That, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by it or on its behalf, it

will state that all applicants will be afforded equal opportunity without discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, national origin or ancestry.

(4) That, it will send to each labor organization or representative of workers with which it

has or is bound by a collective bargaining or other agreement or understanding, a notice advising such labor organization or representative of the contractor's obligations under the Illinois Fair Employment Practices Act and the Commission's Rules and Regulations for Public Contracts. If any such labor organization or representative fails or refuses to cooperate with the contractor in its efforts to comply with such Act and Rules and Regulations, the contractor will promptly so notify the Illinois Fair Employment Practices

The Contractor and each subcontractor shall permit his/her employees to be interviewed on the job, during working hours, by compliance investigators of the VILLAGE or the Department of Labor.

Introduction The Village of Westchester is issuing a Request For Proposal (RFP) that contains two Alternate Bid Requests (Alternate A and Alternate B). These Alternate bids are for the surface preparation, priming, and re-painting of 960 fire hydrants within the Village limits (950 red hydrants and 10 yellow hydrants). The fire hydrants have been identified as containing lead paint. Appendix H of this bid packet contains the laboratory report confirming the presence of lead paint on the fire hydrant surfaces. This RFP is requesting that bidders provide pricing for Alternate A, Alternate B, or both as presented below. The Village, after reviewing the bids for each alternate, reserves the right to select either Alternate A or Alternate B or neither at its sole discretion. The winning bid will be the lowest responsible and responsive bid of either Alternate A or Alternate B. The objective of these specifications is to provide the material and workmanship necessary to produce a quality coating system on the fire hydrants within the Village of Westchester.

Project Location There are 960 fire hydrants within the Village of Westchester limits that will require lead paint removal, priming, and re-painting. Hydrant locations will include main streets, neighborhood streets and service drives. Proper traffic control will be required at all times.

Alternate A

Sandblasting to bare metal, Priming, and Re-Painting of Fire Hydrants The Contractor will follow the recommendations for surface preparation protocol SSPC-SP6 as outlined in the Surface Preparation section of the Paint Specifications provided in this bid packet.

Coating System Surface Preparation Before blast cleaning, visible deposits of oil or grease shall be removed by any of the methods specified in SSPC-SP1 Solvent Cleaning. The CONTRACTOR shall abrasive blast clean all surfaces to remove all rust, mil scale and existing paint on the entire hydrant in accordance with the Society of Professional Coatings Commercial Blast Clean for steel (SSPC-SP6) for steel, which includes containment and proper disposal of the lead paint.

14

General. The existing fire hydrant coatings contain lead and may also contain other toxic metals. This specification provides the requirements for containment and for the protection of the public, and the environment from exposure to harmful levels of toxic metals that may be present in the paint being removed or repaired. The Contractor shall take necessary precautions to protect the public from the inhalation or ingestion of dust or debris from the operations, and is responsible for the clean-up of all spills of waste at no additional cost to the Village of Westchester.

The Contractor shall comply with the requirements of this Specification and all applicable Federal, State, and Local laws, codes, and regulations, including, but not limited to the regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA). The Contractor shall comply with all applicable regulations even if the regulation is not specifically referenced herein. If a Federal, State, or Local regulation is more restrictive than the requirements of this Specification, the more restrictive requirements shall prevail.

Paint All material shall be brought to the job site in the original sealed and labeled containers of the paint manufacturer and shall be subject to inspection by the Village. The CONTRACTOR shall submit to the Village, immediately upon completion of the job, certification from the paint manufacturer indicating that the quantity of each coating purchased was sufficient to coat all surfaces in accordance with the specifications and manufacturer’s recommendations. No substitutions for the primer or paint are permissible. Prime Coat- Sherman Williams Kem Kromik Universal Metal Primer Before any rusting occurs, the CONTRACTOR shall apply one coat of Sherman Williams Kem Kromik Universal Metal Primer to all surfaces to achieve a wet film thickness recommended by the manufacturer (listed on the primer specification sheet- Appendix I). All peaks in the surface profile shall be thoroughly coated. Top Coat- Sherman Williams Sea Guard 1000 The CONTRACTOR shall use Sherman Williams Sea Guard 1000. No substitutions allowed. The CONTRACTOR shall coat all surfaces to achieve a wet film thickness recommended by the manufacturer (listed on the paint specification sheet- Appendix J). 950 hydrants will be painted red and 10 hydrants will be painted yellow. 2nd Top Coat- Sherman Williams Sea Guard 1000 Apply a second top coat after the manufacturer’s recommended drying time to provide complete coverage, as needed. The need for a 2nd top coat will be determined by visual inspection and achieving the manufacturer’s recommended dry film thickness. The CONTRACTOR shall apply paint in strict accordance with the applicable manufacturer’s printed data sheet and container label outlining recommended minimum and maximum surface and air temperatures required for application. Paint shall not be applied to wet or damp surfaces and shall not be applied in rain, snow, fog or mist or when the relative humidity exceeds 85%.

No paint shall be applied when it is expected that the relative humidity will exceed 85% and/or the air temperature will drop below recommended levels within 12 hours after paint application. Dew or

15

moisture condensation should be anticipated, and if such conditions are prevalent, painting shall be delayed until certain that the surfaces are dry. Painting should be completed well in advance of the probable time of day when condensation will occur in order to permit the film an appropriate drying time prior to the formation of moisture on the surface.

The coating shall be applied at the specified thickness. If the specified thickness is not obtained, an additional coat(s) of paint shall be applied. Wet film thickness shall be measured in accordance with current ASTM D4414-95, “Standard Practice for Measurement of Wet Film Thickness by Notched Gages”. Dry film thickness shall be measured in accordance with current SSPC PA2, “Dry Paint Thickness with Magnetic Gauges”.

Proper protection of the surface adjacent to the hydrants is required to prevent abrasion or coloring. Preventative actions must be taken to prevent blast material and paint over-spray from damaging adjacent property and vehicles.

Traffic Control/Job Site Control Proper traffic control shall be used in all situations.

Proper protection of pedestrian and vehicular traffic is required. All claims of negligence in painting and/or blasting will be resolved by the CONTRACTOR prior to final payment.

The Contractor agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless, the Village of Westchester, of and from any and all claims or judgments and all and any loss, cost, damage or expense, including attorney's fees, arising out of the negligent and/or willful and wanton performance of the work by the contractor and or any work performaed in violation of any and all applicable Federal, State, and Local laws, codes, and regulations, including, but not limited to the regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA).

Containment/Disposal Requirements Existing paint systems containing lead and/or other heavy metals require compliance with environmental safety and health regulations during surface preparation procedures. Refer to applicable federal, station and local regulations prior to proceeding.

When required by federal, state or local regulation, the entire hydrant shall be enclosed and surface preparation debris contained. Refer to SSPC-GUIDE 6 (CON), “Guide for Containing Debris Generated During Paint Removal Operations”.

Refer to SSPC-GUIDE 7 (DIS). All surface preparation debris must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state and local regulations.

As part of this contract, the CONTRACTOR shall arrange and pay for all containment, tests, permits, transportation and disposal of all waste resulting from the surface preparation of these hydrants in strict accordance with Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) regulations. Copies of all documentation required by IEPA regulations shall be submitted to the Village for verification prior to submission of the CONTRACTOR’S request for final payment.

Submittals The CONTRACTOR shall submit a signed Proposal, qualifications statement, minimum of three

The Contractor shall comply with the requirements of this Specification and all applicable Federal, State, and Local laws, codes, and regulations, including, but not limited to the regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA). The Contractor shall comply with all applicable regulations even if the regulation is not specifically referenced herein. If a Federal, State, or Local regulation is more restrictive than the requirements of this Specification, the more restrictive requirements shall prevail.

Paint All material shall be brought to the job site in the original sealed and labeled containers of the

17

paint manufacturer and shall be subject to inspection by the Village. The CONTRACTOR shall submit to the Village, immediately upon completion of the job, certification from the paint manufacturer indicating that the quantity of each coating purchased was sufficient to coat all surfaces in accordance with the specifications and manufacturer’s recommendations. Prime Coat- Sherman Williams Kem Kromik Universal Metal Primer Before any rusting occurs, the CONTRACTOR shall apply one coat of Sherman Williams Kem Kromik Universal Metal Primer to all surfaces to achieve a wet film thickness recommended by the manufacturer (listed on the primer specification sheet-Appendix I). All peaks in the surface profile shall be thoroughly coated. Top Coat- Sherman Williams Sea Guard 1000 The CONTRACTOR shall use Sherman Williams Sea Guard 1000. No substitutions allowed. The CONTRACTOR shall coat all surfaces to achieve a wet film thickness recommended by the manufacturer (listed on the paint specification sheet- Appendix J). 950 hydrants will be painted red and 10 hydrants will be painted yellow. 2nd Top Coat- Sherman Williams Sea Guard 1000 Apply a second top coat after the manufacturer’s recommended drying time to provide complete coverage, as needed. The need for a 2nd top coat will be determined by visual inspection and achieving the manufacturer’s recommended dry film thickness. The CONTRACTOR shall apply paint in strict accordance with the applicable manufacturer’s printed data sheet and container label outlining recommended minimum and maximum surface and air temperatures required for application. Paint shall not be applied to wet or damp surfaces and shall not be applied in rain, snow, fog or mist or when the relative humidity exceeds 85%.

No paint shall be applied when it is expected that the relative humidity will exceed 85% and/or the air temperature will drop below recommended levels within 12 hours after paint application. Dew or moisture condensation should be anticipated, and if such conditions are prevalent, painting shall be delayed until certain that the surfaces are dry. Painting should be completed well in advance of the probable time of day when condensation will occur in order to permit the film an appropriate drying time prior to the formation of moisture on the surface.

The coating shall be applied at the specified thickness. If the specified thickness is not obtained, an additional coat(s) of paint shall be applied. Wet film thickness shall be measured in accordance with current ASTM D4414-95, “Standard Practice for Measurement of Wet Film Thickness by Notched Gages”. Dry film thickness shall be measured in accordance with current SSPC PA2, “Dry Paint Thickness with Magnetic Gauges”.

Proper protection of the surface adjacent to the hydrants is required to prevent abrasion or coloring. Preventative actions must be taken to prevent blast material and paint over-spray from damaging adjacent property and vehicles.

c) Contingency Plan. The Contractor shall prepare a contingency plan for emergencies including fire, accident, failure of power, failure of dust collection system, failure of supplied air system or any other event that may require modification of standard operating procedures during lead removal. The plan shall include specific procedures to ensure safe egress and proper medical attention in the event of an emergency.

When the Village of Westchester or its Engineer accepts the submittals, the Contractor will receive written notification. The Contractor shall not begin any work until the Village of Westchester or its Engineer has accepted the submittals. The Contractor shall not construe Village of Westchester or Engineer acceptance of the submittals to imply approval of any

22

particular method or sequence for conducting the work, or for addressing health and safety concerns. Acceptance of the plans does not relieve the Contractor from the responsibility to conduct the work according to the requirements of Federal, State, or Local regulations, this specification, or to adequately protect the health and safety of all workers involved in the project and any members of the public who may be affected by the project. The Contractor remains solely responsible for the adequacy and completeness of the programs and work practices, and adherence to them. Quality Control (QC) Inspections. The Contractor shall perform first line, in process QC inspections of all environmental control and waste handling aspects of the project to verify compliance with these specification requirements and the accepted drawings and plans. The Contractor shall use a report form supplied by the Village of Westchester or its Engineer to record the results of the inspections. The completed reports shall be turned into the Village of Westchester or its Engineer before work resumes the following day. Contractor QC inspections shall include, but not be limited to the following:

• Proper installation and continued performance of the containment system(s) in accordance with the approved drawings.

• Visual inspections of emissions into the air and verification that the cause(s) for any unacceptable emissions is corrected.

• Visual inspections of spills or deposits of contaminated materials into the water or onto the ground, pavement, soil, or slope protection. Included is verification that proper cleanup is undertaken and that the cause(s) of unacceptable releases is corrected.

• Proper implementation of the waste management plan including laboratory analysis and providing the results to the Village of Westchester or its Engineer within the time frames specified herein.

• Proper implementation of the contingency plans for emergencies. The personnel providing the QC inspections shall poses current SSPC-C3 certification or equal, including the annual training necessary to maintain that certification (SSPC-05 or equal), and shall provide evidence of successful completion of 2 projects of similar or greater complexity and scope that have been completed in the last 2 years. Proof of initial certification and the current annual training shall also be provided. Quality Assurance (QA) Observations. The Village of Westchester or its Engineer will conduct QA observations of any or all of the QC monitoring inspections that are undertaken. The presence or activity of Village or Engineer observations in no way relieves the Contractor of the responsibility to provide all necessary daily QC inspections of its own and to comply with all requirements of this Specification. Containment Requirements. The Contractor shall install and maintain containment systems surrounding the work for the purpose of controlling emissions of dust and debris according to the requirements of this specification. The containment (tarp) shall be folded up and stabilized in the event of sustained winds of

23

40 mph (64 kph) or greater and all materials and equipment secured. Containment for the cleaning operation of this contract is defined as follows:

• The containment system shall maintain the work area free of visible emissions of dust and debris according to all provisions of this Specification, with no debris permitted outside of the regulated area at any time. All debris within the regulated area and within the containment shall be collected at the completion of the paint removal process for any single fire hydrant, and properly stored in sealed containers. Cleaning shall be accomplished by HEPA vacuuming.

The containment systems shall comply with the specified SSPC Guide 6 classifications as presented in Table 1 for the method of paint removal utilized.

The Contractor shall take appropriate action to avoid personnel injury or damage to the hydrants from the installation and use of the containment system. If the Village of Westchester or its Engineer determines that there is the potential for damage caused by the installed containment system, the Contractor shall take appropriate action to correct the situation. In addition to complying with the specific containment requirements in Table 1 for each method of removal, the Contractor shall provide and maintain coverage over the ground in the areas to be cleaned. This coverage shall be capable of catching and containing surface preparation media, paint chips, and paint dust. The containment materials shall be cleaned of loose material prior to relocation or dismantling. Acceptable methods of cleaning include HEPA vacuuming, and/or wet wiping. If paint chips or dust is observed escaping from the containment materials during moving, all associated operations shall be halted and the materials and components re-cleaned. The containment systems shall also meet the following requirements: The Contractor shall attach containment materials around and under the work area to catch and contain abrasive and waste materials in the event of an accidental escape from the vacuum shroud. This containment is in addition to the ground covers specified earlier. a) Vacuum-Shrouded Power Tool Cleaning within Containment (SSPC-Class 3P)

The Contractor shall utilize power tools equipped with vacuums and High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters. This containment is in addition to the ground covers specified earlier and shall be installed within 10 ft. (3m) of the areas being cleaned.

b) Power Tool Cleaning without Vacuum, within Containment (SSPC-Class 2P)

When the use of power tools without vacuum attachments is authorized by the Village of Westchester or its Engineer, the Contractor shall securely install flooring (tarp) around the work area to capture and collect all debris that is generated. Containment beneath the work shall be within 10 ft. (3m) of the areas being cleaned, and is in addition to the

24

ground covers specified earlier. Environmental Controls and Monitoring. The Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Village of Westchester or its Engineer for review and acceptance, an Environmental Monitoring Plan. The purpose of the plan is to address the observations and equipment monitoring undertaken by the Contractor to confirm that project dust and debris are not escaping the containment into the surrounding air, soil, and water. a) Soil and Water. Containment systems shall be maintained to prevent the escape of

paint chips, abrasives, and other debris into the water, and onto the ground, soil, slope protection, and pavements. Releases or spills of, paint chips, abrasives, dust and debris that have become deposited on surrounding property, structures, equipment or vehicles, and bodies of water are unacceptable. If there are inadvertent spills or releases, the Contractor shall immediately shut down the emissions-producing operations, clean up the debris, and change work practices, modify the containment, or take other appropriate corrective action as needed to prevent similar releases from occurring in the future.

At the conclusion of paint removal from any single fire hydrant at a minimum, the work area on top of and below containment, including ground tarpaulins, shall be inspected to verify that paint debris is not present. If debris is observed, it shall be removed by hand and HEPA-vacuuming. With the ground tarpaulins, debris should be protected from accidental release by securely covering the waste, folding the waste into the ground tarps, or by other acceptable methods. Prior to commencing work the next day, the debris from the folded ground tarps shall be removed.

Upon project completion, the ground and surrounding area in and around the project site are considered to have been properly cleaned if paint chips, paint removal media (e.g., spent abrasives), fuel, materials of construction, litter, or other project debris have been removed, even if the material being cleaned was a pre-existing condition.

b) Visible Emissions. The Contractor shall conduct observations of visible emissions and

releases on an ongoing daily basis when dust-producing activities are underway, such as paint removal, clean up, waste handling, and containment dismantling or relocation. Note that visible emissions observations do not apply to the fine mist that may escape through permeable containment materials when wet methods of preparation are used. Visible emissions in excess of SSPC Guide 6, Level 1 (1% of the workday) are unacceptable. In an 8-hour workday, this equates to emissions of a cumulative duration no greater than 4.8 minutes (288 seconds). This criterion applies to scattered, random emissions of short duration. Sustained emissions from a given location (e.g., 1 minute or longer), regardless of the total length of emissions for the workday, are unacceptable and action shall be initiated to halt the emission.

If unacceptable visible emissions or releases are observed, the Contractor shall immediately shut down the emission-producing operations, clean up the debris, and

25

change work practices, modify the containment, or take other appropriate corrective action as needed to prevent similar releases from occurring in the future.

Regulated Areas. Physically demarcated regulated area(s) shall be established around exposure producing operations at the OSHA Action Level for the toxic metal(s) present in the coating. The Contractor shall provide all required protective clothing and equipment for personnel entering into a regulated area. Unprotected street clothing is not permitted within the regulated areas. Hygiene Facilities/Protective Clothing/Blood Tests. The Contractor shall provide clean lavatory and hand washing facilities according to OSHA regulations and confirm that employees wash hands, forearms, and face before breaks. The facilities shall be located at the perimeter of the regulated area in close proximity to the paint removal operation. The Contractor shall make available to all project personnel a base line and post project blood level screening determined by the whole blood lead method, utilizing the Vena-Puncture technique. This screening shall be made available every month for the duration of the project. The Contractor shall provide project personnel with all required protective clothing and equipment, including disposal or cleaning. Clothing and equipment includes but is not limited to disposable coveralls with hood, booties, disposable surgical gloves, hearing protection, and safety glasses. The protective clothing and equipment shall be provided and maintained on the job site for the exclusive, continuous and simultaneous use by the personnel. This equipment shall be suitable to allow inspection access to any area in which work is being performed. Site Emergencies. a) Stop Work. The Contractor shall stop work at any time the conditions are not within

specifications and take the appropriate corrective action. The stoppage will continue until conditions have been corrected. Standby time and cost required for corrective action is at the Contractor's expense. The occurrence of the following events shall be reported in writing to the Village of Westchester or its Engineer and shall require the Contractor to automatically stop lead paint removal and initiate clean up activities.

• Breaks or rips in containment tarps. • Visible emissions in excess of the specification tolerances. • Serious injury within the containment area. • Fire or safety emergency • Respiratory system failure.

b) Contingency Plans and Arrangements. The Engineer will refer to the contingency plan

for site specific instructions in the case of emergencies.

The Contractor shall prepare a contingency plan for emergencies including fire,

26

accident, failure of power, failure of dust collection system, failure of supplied air system or any other event that may require modification of standard operating procedures during lead removal. The plan shall include specific procedures to ensure safe egress and proper medical attention in the event of an emergency. The Contractor shall post the telephone numbers and locations of emergency services including fire, ambulance, doctor, hospital, police, power company and telephone company on clean side of personnel decontamination area. A copy of the contingency plan shall remain with the Contractor during cleaning operations and during the time the Contractor's personnel are at the site under this contract. The Contractor shall designate the emergency coordinator(s) required who shall be responsible for the activities described.

Collection, Temporary Storage, Transportation and Disposal of Waste. The Contractor and the Village of Westchester are considered to be co-generators of the waste. The Contractor is responsible for all aspects of waste collection, testing and identification, handling, storage, transportation, and disposal according to these specifications and all applicable Federal, State, and Local regulations. The Contractor shall provide for Village or Engineer review and acceptance of a Waste Management Plan that addresses all aspects of waste handling, storage, and testing, and provides the names, addresses, and a contact person for the proposed licensed waste haulers and disposal facilities. The Village of Westchester or its Engineer will not perform any functions relating to the waste other than provide provide the Contractor with the emergency response information, the emergency response telephone number required to be provided on the manifest, and to sign the waste manifest. All surface preparation/paint residues shall be collected daily and deposited in all-weather containers supplied by the Contractor as temporary storage. The storage area shall be secure to prevent unauthorized entry or tampering with the containers. Acceptable measures include storage within a locked area, vehicle, or implementing other reasonable means to reduce the possibility of vandalism or exposure of the waste to the public or the environment (e.g., securing the lids or covers of waste containers). Waste shall not be stored outside of the containers. Waste shall be collected and transferred to bulk containers taking extra precautions as necessary to prevent the suspension of residues in air or contamination of surrounding surfaces. Precautions may include the transfer of the material within a tarpaulin enclosure. No residues shall remain on surfaces overnight, inside or outside, on top of or below containment. Waste materials shall not be removed through storm sewer drains. The all-weather containers shall meet the requirements for the transportation of hazardous materials and as approved by the Village of Westchester or its Engineer. Acceptable containers include covered roll-off boxes and 55-gallon drums (17H). The Contractor shall insure that no breaks and no deterioration of these containers occurs. The containers shall be kept closed and sealed from moisture except during the addition of waste. Each

27

container shall be permanently identified with the date that waste was placed into the container, contract number, hazardous waste name and ID number, and other information required by the IEPA or disposal facility. If approved abrasive additives are used that render the waste non-hazardous as determined by TCLP testing, the waste shall be classified as a non-hazardous special waste, transported by a licensed waste transporter, and disposed of at an IEPA permitted disposal facility in Illinois. When paint is removed from the fire hydrants without the use of abrasive additives, the paint, together with the surface preparation media (e.g. abrasive) shall be handled as a hazardous waste, regardless of the TCLP results. The treatment/disposal facilities shall be approved by the Village of Westchester or its Engineer, and shall hold an IEPA permit for waste disposal and waste stream authorization for this cleaning residue. The IEPA permit and waste stream authorization must be obtained prior to beginning cleaning, except that if necessary, limited paint removal will be permitted in order to obtain samples of the waste for the disposal facilities. The waste shall be shipped to the facility within 90 days of the first accumulation of the waste in the containers. When permitted by the Village of Westchester or its Engineer, waste from multiple fire hydrants in the same contract may be transported by the Contractor to a central waste storage location(s) approved by the Village of Westchester or its Engineer in order to consolidate the material for pick up, and to minimize the storage of waste containers at multiple remote sites after demobilization. Arrangements for the final waste pickup shall be made with the waste hauler by the time cleaning operations are completed or as required to meet the 90 day limit stated above. The Contractor shall prepare a manifest supplied by the IEPA for off-site treatment and disposal before transporting the hazardous waste off-site. The Contractor shall prepare a land ban notification for the waste to be furnished to the disposal facility. The Contractor shall obtain the handwritten signature of the initial transporter and date of the acceptance of the manifest. The Contractor shall send one copy of the manifest to the IEPA within two working days of transporting the waste off-site. The Contractor shall furnish the generator copy of the manifest and a copy of the land ban notification to the Engineer. The Contractor shall give the transporter the remaining copies of the manifest. All other project waste shall be removed from the site according to Federal, State and Local regulations, with all waste removed from the site prior to final Contractor demobilization. The Contractor is responsible for the payment of any fines and undertaking any clean up activities mandated by State or federal environmental agencies for improper waste handling, storage, transportation, or disposal. Contractor personnel shall be trained in the proper handling of hazardous waste, and the necessary notification and clean up requirements in the event of a spill. The Contractor

28

shall maintain a copy of the personnel training records during the project. Appendix 1 – Reference List The Contractor shall maintain the following reference standards and regulations on site for the duration of the project:

2The SSPC Classification is based on SSPC Guide 6. Note that for work over water, water booms or boats with skimmers must be employed, where feasible, to contain spills or releases. Debris must be removed daily at a minimum. 3Permeability addresses both air and water as appropriate. In the case of water removal methods, the containment materials must be resistant to water. Ground covers should always impermeable, and of sufficient strength to withstand the impact and weight of the debris and the equipment used for collection and clean-up. Ground covers must also extend beyond the containment boundary to capture escaping debris. 4 If debris escapes through the seams, then additional sealing of the seams and joints is required. 5When "Natural" is listed, ventilation is not required provided the emissions are controlled as specified in this Special Provision, and provided worker exposures are properly controlled. If unacceptable emissions or worker exposures to lead or other toxic metals occur, incorporate a ventilation system into the containment. 6Ground covers and wall tarpaulins may provide suitable controls over emissions without the need to completely enclose the work area. 'This method applies to water cleaning to remove surface contaminants, and water jetting (with and without abrasive) and wet abrasive blast cleaning where the goal is to remove paint. Although both permeable and impermeable containment materials are included, ground covers and the lower portions of the containment must be water impermeable with fully sealed joints, and of sufficient strength and integrity to facilitate the collection and holding of the water and debris for proper disposal. If water or debris, other than mist, escape through upper sidewalls or ceiling areas constructed of permeable materials, they shall be replaced with impermeable materials. Permeable materials for the purpose of this specification are defined as materials with openings measuring 25 mils (1 micron) or less in greatest dimension. A. Containment Components - The basic components that make up containment systems

are defined below. The components are combined in Table 1 to establish the minimum containment system requirements for the method(s) of paint removal specified for the Contract.

1. Rigidity of Containment Materials - Rigid containment materials consist of solid

panels of plywood, aluminum, rigid metal, plastic, fiberglass, composites, or similar materials. Flexible materials consist of screens, tarps, drapes, plastic sheeting, or similar materials. When directed by the Engineer, do not use flexible materials for horizontal surfaces directly over traffic lanes or vertical surfaces in close proximity to traffic lanes. If the Engineer allows the use of flexible materials, The Contractor shall take special precautions to completely secure the materials to prevent any interference with traffic.

2. Permeability of Containment Materials - The containment materials are

identified as air impenetrable if they are impervious to dust or wind such as provided by rigid panels, coated solid tarps, or plastic sheeting. Air penetrable materials are those that are formed or woven to allow air flow. Water

31

impermeable materials are those that are capable of containing and controlling water when wet methods of preparation are used. Water permeable materials allow the water to pass through. Chemical resistant materials are those resistant to chemical and solvent stripping solutions. Use fire retardant materials in all cases.

3. Support Structure - Rigid support structures consist of scaffolding and framing

to which the containment materials are affixed to minimize movement of the containment cocoon. Flexible support structures are comprised of cables, chains, or similar systems to which the containment materials are affixed. Use fire retardant materials in all cases.

4. Containment Joints - Fully sealed joints require that mating surfaces between

the containment materials and to the structure being prepared are completely sealed. Sealing measures include tape, caulk, Velcro, clamps, or other similar material capable of forming a continuous, impenetrable or impermeable seal. When materials are overlapped, a minimum overlap of 8 in. (200 mm) is required.

5. Entryway - An airlock entryway involves a minimum of one stage that is fully

sealed to the containment and which is maintained under negative pressure using the ventilation system of the containment. Resealable door entryways involve the use of flexible or rigid doors capable of being repeatedly opened and resealed. Sealing methods include the use of zippers, Velcro, clamps, or similar fasteners. Overlapping door tarpaulin entryways consist of two or three overlapping door tarpaulins.

6. Mechanical Ventilation - The requirement for mechanical ventilation is to ensure

that adequate air movement is achieved to reduce worker exposure to toxic metals to as low as feasible according to OSHA regulations (e.g., 29 CFR 1926.62), and to enhance visibility. Design the system with proper exhaust ports or plenums, adequately sized ductwork, adequately sized discharge fans and air cleaning devices (dust collectors) and properly sized and distributed make-up air points to achieve a uniform air flow inside containment for visibility. The design target for airflow shall be a minimum of 100 ft. (30.5m) per minute cross-draft or 60 ft. (18.3 m) per minute downdraft. Increase these minimum airflow requirements if necessary to address worker lead exposures. Natural ventilation does not require the use of mechanical equipment for moving dust and debris through the work area.

7. Negative Pressure - When specified, achieve a minimum of 0.03 in. (7.5 mm)

water column (W.C.) relative to ambient conditions, or confirm through visual assessments for the concave appearance of the containment enclosure.

8. Exhaust Ventilation - When mechanical ventilation systems are used, provide

filtration of the exhaust air, to achieve a filtration efficiency of 99.9 percent at 0.02 mils (0.5 microns).
