VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW
The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative to the award of contracts
to non-resident bidders. This law provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder,
non-resident bidders (out of state contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of
business are outside of the State or Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or
services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount
that a Texas resident bidder would be required too underbid a non-resident bidder in order to
obtain a comparable contract in the State in which the non-resident's principal place of business is
located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or non-resident
bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or non-resident
contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box
in Section B.
A. Non-Resident vendors in
required to be
the Statute is attached.
(give State), our principal place of business, are
percent lower than resident bidders by State law. A copy of
Non-resident vendors in (give State), our principle place of business, are
not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. Our principle place of business or corporate office(s) is in the State of Texas. -�

1.3 Definitions
Abatement — Procedures to control fiber release from ACM to include removal, encapsulation, enclosure,
repair, demolition, and renovation activities.
Adequately wet — Sufficiently mixed or penetrated with liquid clean through with no dry material to prevent
the release of particulates. If visible emissions are observed coming from ACM, then that material has not
been adequately wetted. However, the absence of visible emissions is not sufficient evidence of being
adequately wet.
AHERA — Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act of 1986, Public Law 99-519. The act amends the
Federal Toxic Substances Control Act, 15 United States Codes, §2641, et seq., by requiring an inspection of
all school buildings (Grades K-12), all school administrations to develop plans for controlling asbestos in or
removing asbestos from school buildings, and providing penalties for non-compliance.
Airlocic — A system for permitting entry and egress with minimum air movement between a contaminated
area and an uncontaminated area, typically consisting of two curtained doorways separated by a distance of
at least three (3) feet such that one passes through a doorway into the airlock, allowing the doorway sheeting
to overlap and close off the opening before proceeding through the second doorway thereby preventing flow-
through contamination.
Air Monitoring — The process of ineasuring iiber content of a known volume of air collected on a filter
during a specific time period.
Air Monitoring Technician — A TDSHS-licensed individual contracted or employed by the Building Owner
or Consultant to supervise and/or conduct air monitoring. This individual shall not be affiliated with the
Contractor performing the abatement work.
Amended Water — Water to which a surfactant has been added to enhance its absorption ability.
Asbestos - The general name given to a number of naturally occurring hydrated mineral silicates each of
which possesses a specific crystalline structure, is incombustible in air, and is separable into fibers. Asbestos
includes the asbestifarm varieties of Chrysotile (serpentine), Crocidolite (riebeckite), Amosite
(cummingtonite-grunerite), Anthophyllite, and Actinolite.
Asbestos Abatement — The removal, the encapsulation or the enclosure of asbestos for the purpose of, that
has the effect of, reducing or eliminating airborne concenti•ations of asbestos fibers or amounts of ACM.
Asbestos Abatement Contractor — A person who undertakes to perform asbestos removal, enclosure, or
encapsulation for others under contract or other agreement, or who bids to undertake asbestos activities.
Asbestos Abatement Supervisor — An individual who is in the direct and responsible charge of the
personnel, practices, and procedures of an asbestos abatement operation or project.
Asbestos Consulting Activities — Consulting activities in public buildings include: the designing of
asbestos abatement projects; the survey for asbestos-containing building materials; the evaluation and
selection of appropriate asbestos abatement methods and project layout; the preparation of plans,
specifications and contract documents; the review of environmental controls and abatement procedures for
personal protection that are to be employed every day of the asbestos abatement activity, fi�om the start
through the completion dates of the project; the design of air monitoring of the project; any survey,
management planning, air monitoring, or project management performed by or for the consultant or
consulting agency.
Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM) - May be defined, as by the EPA, as any friable material ar product
containing greater than one percent asbestos or, by convention, as any material or product which contains
>1% asbestos.

Fair - As used to describe material condition, damage is more prevalent or severe than on materials rated as
good.
Fiber release episode - Any uncontrolled or unintentional disturbance of ACM resulting in airborne asbestos
fiber emission.
Fixed Object - A piece of equipment or furniture in the work area which cannot be removed from the work
area.
Friability - The physical characteristic of any solid that describes its ability to be broken down to a powder
or dust. A highly friable material is one that can be easily crumbled by hand pressut•e. A moderately friable
material is one that can be crumbled with some difficulty by hand pressure or by mechanical means. A low
friability material is one that may require mechanical means to crumble. While the condition of a material
does not constitute a measure of its friability, weathering and deterioration can increase the friability of a
material.
Glovebag - A plastic enclosure with built-in gloves which is placed with an airtight seal around
asbestos-containing pipe lagging or other materials such that they may be removed or repaired without
generating airborne fibers.
Glovebag Technique - A method with limited applications for removing small amounts of friable ACM
fi•om HVAC ducts, short piping run, valves, joints, elbows, and other non-planar surfaces in a non-contained
(plasticized) work area. The glove bag assembly is a manufactured or fabricated device consisting of a glove
bag (typically constructed of 6-mil transparent polyethylene or polyvinylchloride plastic) two inward
projecting long sleeves, an internal tool pouch, and an attached, labeled receptacle for asbestos waste. The
glove bag is constructed and installed in such a manner that it surrounds the object or material to be removed
and contains all asbestos fibers released during the process. OSHA's definition of a glove bag is that it may
be no larger than 60" X 60", may be used only one time, may not be slid along the pipe and may not be joined
to form a continuous line of glove bags. All workers who are permitted to use the glove bag technique must
be highly trained, experienced and skilled in this method. This definition will be strictly applied to on all
projects.
Good - As used in the context of material condition, integrity of the material is generally complete, with
possible small areas of delamination or indications of limited contact or water damage. The mechanism to
retain the insulation in its original position (e.g. cloth wrapping over pipe insulation) is still present.
Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system - The system of pipes, ducts, and equipment,
(air conditioners, chillers, heaters, boilers, pumps, fans) used to heat, cool and filter air and move it through a
building. The HVAC system is one of several mechanical systems found in most buildings.
High-Ef�ciency Particulate Air (HEPA) Filter - A fltering system capable of trapping and retaining at
least 99.97 percent of all particles 0.3 micrometers in diameter or larger.
Homogeneous Application - An application of surfacing material, thermal system insulation material, or
miscellaneous material that is uniform in color, texture, and vintage of application.
Independent Third-Party Air Monitor — A person retained to collect area air samples to be analyzed by
and for the owner of the building or facility being abated. The person must not be employed by the
Abatement Contractor to analyze any area samples collected during the abatement projects being monitored
or the clearance samples
Inspection - An activity undertaken in a school building, public building, or commercial building to
determine the quantity, presence or location, or to assess the condition of, friable or non-friable asbestos-
containing building material or suspected asbestos-containing building material, whether by visual or
physical examination, or by collecting samples of such material. This term includes re-inspections of friable
and non-friable known or assumed asbestos-containing building material which has been previously
identified. The term does not include the following:

PART 3: EXECUTION
�- � 3.1 Preparation
31.1 Work Area
3.1.1.1 Post signs meeting the specifications of TAHPR and OSHA in English and Spanish at any location
and approaches to a location where airborne concentrations of asbestos may exceed ambient
background levels. Signs shall be posted at a distance sufficiently far enough away from the work
area to permit an employee to read the sign and take the necessary protective measures to avoid
eYposure. Additional signs may need to be posted following construction of work place enclosure
barriers.
3.1.1.2 Ensure safe installation (including ground faulting) of temporary power sources and equipment by
compliance with all applicable electrical code requirements and OSHA requirements for temporary
electrical systems. Contractor shall connect to existing Owner system using only licensed
tradesmen and in accordance with all State and local regulations and building codes. The Owner
shall pay all cost for electricity, unless otherwise specified. If Owners electrical source is
inadequate, the Contractor shall provide alternate electrical power at the Contractor's eYpense.
3.1.1.3 All electricity must be disconnected or shut down and locked out and tagged out prior to any work.
The Contractor is responsible for isolating and protecting all electrical items in the Work Area to
protect workers. As a precaution, the Contractor shall treat all electrical components as energized
3.1.1.4 Shut down, lock out, and tag-out all heating, ventilation and air conditioning system (HVAC)
components that are in, supply or pass through the work area. This may be done during the pre-
cleaning phase of operations before the ductwork is sealed off or during the final cleaning phase
prior to re-engagement of the system. Where friable asbestos is encountered the HVAC filters
must be disposed of as contaminated material. Appropriate equipment and control measures shall
be utilized to prevent contamination of building spaces during this operation. Adequate cleaning
of ductwork may sometimes be accomplished by drawing high volumes of air through the system
using the HEPA filtered negative pressure ventilation units). Investigate the work area and agree
on pre-abatement condition with the Building Owner. Seal all intakes and exhaust vents in the
work area with tape and 6-mil polyethylene. Also, seal any seams in system components that pass
through the work area. Remove all HVAC filters and place in labeled 6-mil polyethylene bags for
staging and eventual disposal as asbestos-contaminated waste.
3.1.1.5 The Contractor shall provide sanitary facilities for abatement personnel outside of the enclosed
work area and maintain them in a clean and sanitary condition throughout the project. If facilities
are not available for use from the Owner, the Contractor shall provide temporary facilities at the
Contractors expense. These facilities must meet OSHA's minimum standard.
3.1.1.6 The Owner will provide water for construction purposes. Contractor shall connect to eYisting
Owner system using only licensed tradesmen and in accordance with all State and local regulations
and building codes.
3.1.1.7 Pre-clean all movable objects within the work area using a HEPA ftltered vacuum and/or wet
cleaning methods as appropriate. After cleaning, these objects shall be removed from the work
area and carefully stored in an uncontaminated location. Carpeting, drapes, clothing, upholstered
furniture and other fabric items may be disposed of as asbestos contaminated waste or cleaned as
asbestos contaminated items utilizing HEPA vacuum techniques and off- premises steam cleaning.
Since adequate cleaning of severely contaminated fabric is difficult, the Building Owner or

Consultant must carefully consider whether this option is appropriate. After abatement all items
are to be replaced in their original location.
3.1.1.8 Pre-clean all fixed objects in the work area using HEPA filtered vacuum and/or wet cleaning
techniques as appropriate. Careful attention must be paid to machinery behind grills or gratings
where access may be difficult. After pre-cleaning, enclose fixed objects in 4-mil polyethylene
sheeting and seal securely in place with tape.
3.1.1.9 Pre-clean all surfaces in the work area using HEPA filtered vacuums and/or wet cleaning methods
as appropriate. Do not use any methods that would raise dust such as dry sweeping or vacuuming
with equipment not equipped with HEPA filters. Do not disturb ACM during the pre-cleaning
phase.
3.1.1.10 Seal off all windows, doorways, elevator opening, corridor entrances, drains, ducts, grills, grates,
diffusers skylights and any other openings between the work area and uncontaminated areas
outside of the work area (including the outside of the building, tunnels and crawl spaces) with 6-
mil polyethylene sheeting and tape (see Section 3.1.4-Isolation work area fi�om occupied areas).
3.1.1.11 Cover floors in the work area with polyethylene as follows:
3.1.1.12 Floor shall be covered with two layers of 6-mil (minimum) sheeting. Additional layers of sheeting
may be utilized at the Contractor's option as drop cloths to aid in cleanup of bulk materials.
3.1.1.13 Plastic shall be sized to minimize seams. If the floor area necessitates seams, those on successive
layers of sheeting shall be staggered to reduce the potential for water to penetrate to the flooring
material. Do NOT locate any seams at wall/floor joints.
3.1.1.14 Floor sheeting shall extend at least 12" up the sidewalls of the work area. Sheeting shall be
installed in a fashion to prevent slippage between successive layers of material. (Vinyl sheeting
may be used for improved traction on floors).
3.1.1.15 Ceilings shall be covered with a minimum of two layers of 6-mil polyethylene sheeting.
3.1.1.14 Plastic shall be sized to minimize seams. Seams shall be staggered and separated by a distance of
at least 18 inches.
3.1.1.15 Ceiling sheeting shall be secured adequately to prevent it from falling away from the ceiling. This
may require additional support attachment when negative pressure ventilation systems are utilized.
(Note: See Section 2.1.1.5.)
3.1.1.16 Lower utilities as necessary and re-install in a manner that permits proper utilization and does not
disturb the integrity of the enclosure. Utility maintenance should not require the enclosure to be
opened or disturbed. (If it does, an alternative abatement strategy is indicated.)
3.1.2 Worker Decontamination Enclosure Systems
3.1.2.1 Worker decontamination enclosure systems shall be provided at all locations where workers will
enter or exit the work area. One system at a single location for each contained work area is
preferred. These systems may consist of existing rooms outside of the work area, if the layout is
appropriate, that can be enclosed in plastic sheeting and are accessible from the work area. When
this situation does not exist, enclosure systems may be constructed out of inetal, wood or plastic
support as appropriate.
3.1.2.2 Plans for construction, including materials and layout, shall be submitted as shop drawings and
shall be approved, in writing, by the Building Owner prior to work initiation. Worker
decontamination enclosure systems constructed at the work site shall utilize 6-mil opaque black or
white polyethylene sheeting or other acceptable materials for privacy.

3.4 Respiratory Protection
3.4.1 All respiratoiy protection shall be provided to workers in accordance with the submitted written
respiratary protection program, which includes all items in OSHA 29 CRF 1910.134 (b) (1-11).
This program shall be posted in the clean room of the worker decontamination enclosure system.
3.4.2 Workers shall be provided with personally issued, individually identifed (marked with waterproof
designations) respirators.
3.4.3 Respirators shall be selected that meet the following level of protection requirements: All workers,
foremen, superintendents, authorized visitors and inspectors must have personally issued and
marked equipment approved by NIOSH or MSA. Minimum respiratory protection required for
this project is PAPR respirators with HEPA filters unless fiber concentration requires greater
protection. Prep work that may disturb the asbestos, and bag out if there is no removal activity,
may be done in half-face dual HEPA filter respirators. These are the only eYceptions to PAPR
respirators unless personal air sampling and containment area air samples indicate down grading of
respirator protection is appropriate. The Contractor must make any decision to down grade known
to the Project Manager. The Project Manager can deny this down grade if, in his opinion, there is
just cause to do so. Half-faced mask respirators with dual high-efficiency HEPA filters may be
utilized for this project only if the Time Weighted Average (TWA) does not exceed the protection
factor.
3.4.4 Fit Testing
3.4.4.1 Workers must perform positive and negative air pressure fit tests each time a respirator is put on,
whenever the respirator design so permits. Powered air- purifying respirators shall be tested for
adequate flow as specified by the manufacturer.
3.4.4.2 Workers shall be given a qualitative fit test in accordance with procedures detailed in the OSHA
lead Standard (29 CFR 1910.1025,Appendix D Qualitative Fit Test Protocols) for all respirators to
be used on this abatement project. An appropriately administered quantitative fit test may be
substituted for the qualitative fit test results documenting adequate respirator fit must be provided
to the Building Owner representative.
3.4.4.3 Additional respirators (minimum of 2 of each type) and training on their donning and use must be
available at the work site for authorized visitors who may be required to enter the work area.

Removal Procedures — Negative Pressure Enclosures
Clean and isolate the work area in accordance with Section 3.1
November 18, 2011
FWTHASB021
3.6.2 Wet all ACM with amended water solution using equipment capable of providing a fine spray
mist, in order to reduce airborne fiber concentrations when the material is disturbed. Saturate the
material to the substrate; however, do not allow excessive water to accumulate in the work area.
Keep all removed material wet enough to prevent fiber release until it can be containerized for
disposal. If work area temperatures are below 32°F and amended water is subject to freezing, dry
removal permits and procedures must be utilized (See Section 2.1.2.1). Maintain a high humidity
in the work area by misting or spraying to assist in fiber settling and reduce airborne
concentrations. Wetting procedures are not equally effective on all types of ACM but, shall none-
the-less be used in all cases.
3.6.3 Special circumstances (e.g. live electrical equipment, high amosite content of material, materials
T� previously coated with an encapsulant or paint) may prohibit the adequate use of wet methods to
reduce fiber concentrations. For these situations, a dry removal may be required. The Contractor
will have to acquire special permits, different fi•om those mentioned herein from the NESHAP
enforcement agency.
3.6.4 Saturated ACM shall be removed in manageable sections. Removed material should be
containerized before moving to a new location for continuance of work. Surrounding areas shall
be periodically sprayed and maintained in a wet condition until visible material is cleaned up.
3.6.5 Material removed from building structures or components shall not be dropped or thrown to the
floor. Material should be removed as intact sections or components whenever possible and
carefully lowered to the floor. If this cannot be done for materials gceater than 50 feet above the
floor, a dust-tight chute shall be constructed to transport the material to containers on the floor or
the material may be containerized at elevated levels (e.g. on scaffolds) and carefully lowered to the
ground by mechanical means. For materials between 15 and 50 feet above the ground they may be
containerized at elevated levels or dropped onto inclined chutes or scaffolding for subsequent
collection and containerization.
3.6.6 Containers (6 mil polyethylene bags or drums) shall be sealed when full (wet material can be
exceedingly heavy.) Bags shall not be over-filled and shall be securely sealed to prevent
accidental opening and leakage by tying tops of bags in an overhand knot or taping in gooseneck
fashion. Do not seal bags with wire or cord (bags may be placed in drums for staging and
transportation to the landfill). Bags shall be decontaminated on exterior surfaces by wet cleaning
and HEPA vacuuming before being placed in clean drums and sealed with locking ring tops).
3.6.7 Large components removed intact may be wrapped in 2 layers of 6-mil polyethylene sheeting
secured with tape, and appropriately labeled, for transport to the landfill.
3.6.8 Asbestos containing waste with sharp-edged components (e.g. nail, screws, metal lath, tin
sheeting) will tear the polyethylene bags and sheeting and shall be placed in drums for disposal.
The alternate use of fiber bags that are then double bagged in 6-mil asbestos bags may be used
with the Consultant's written permission on a case by case basis.
3.6.9 After completion of all stripping work, surfaces from which ACM have been removed shall be wet
brushed and sponged or cleaned by some equivalent method to remove all visible residues and all
surfaces in the work area shall be wet wiped and HEPA vacuumed.

to the synergistic effect between smoking and asbestos exposure, it is highly recommended that only
non-smokers be employed in positions, which may require them to enter asbestos contaminated
atmospheres).
4.2.2 Medical monitoring shall include at a minimum:
4.2.2.1 A work/medical history to elicit symptomatology of respiratory disease.
4.2.2.2 A chest X-ray (posterior-anterior, 14 X 13 inches) evaluated by a certified B-Reader.
