EXTENT OF WORK: Removal and disposal of asbestos containing materials (ACM) and asbestos contaminated elements (ACE) within full containment, modified containment and glovebag. A brief summary of the quantities and locations of the ACM is referenced in Division I, Section 2.0. 9.9.3. TASKS: The Work located at the Meacham Airport, Main Terminal building is summarized briefly as follows: Contractor shall provide properly licensed and trained mainpower, equipment, materials, and other miscellaneous items necessary to perform the removal, transportation, and disposal of asbestos containing materials and asbestos contaminated materials in acccordance with all Federal, State, and local rules and regulations. The PROJECT requires the selective demolition and removal of the asbestos containing materials in the Meacham Airport, Main Terminal building. A. Approximately 77,019 square feet (SF) of spray-on fireproofing material located on horizontal and vertical structural beams, roof/ceiling deck surface, electrical conduit, HVAC trunk and feeder lines, firewalls, piping, ceilling material including but not limited to ceiling grid, ceiling tiles, and plaster ceiling, and miscellaneous other materials throughout the terminal building. Special Conditions: 1. Demolition and disposal of building materials shall be performed as necessary to gain access to the spray-on fireproofing material. This process includes but is not limited to demolition/removal and disposal of ceiling tile, ceiling grid, light fixtures, HVAC duct insulation, non-working telephone/electrical lines, wall/ceiling/column plaster lathe, and wall/ceiling/column wall board. Note: Contractor shall work with the Project Asbestos Consultant to determine which materials may be cleaned and disposed as non-asbestos contaminated material. These items may include ceiling grid, ceiling tiles, and light fixtures. 2. Precautions shall be taken to protect or preserve the operational status of the terminal building including but not limited to existing telephone, electrical, fire sprinkler, plumbing, HVAC system, and lighting. B. Approximately 1,100 SF of floor tile and associated mastic located on the first and second floors of the terminal building. March 7, 2000 �` ' /ZC�1 I D DEMO - .^ o VU O,'_�U H. U'R. , Asbestos Abatement - Meacham Airport, Main Terminal Building C. Approximately 400 SF of linoleum flooring material located in the northeast corner of the basement. D. Approximately 130 thermal system insulation (TSI) fittings ranging in size from 2 inches to 24 inches located throughout the terminal building. Special Conditions: 1. Primary pipe runs and TSI fittings that are currently insulated with fiberglass insulation shall be protected and preserved to a least pre-job conditions. A HEPA vacuum shall be utilized to clean the surface of these materials prior to protection and exclusion from the active containment. E. Approximately 32 SF of TSI located on a condensate tank located in the basement mechanical room. F. Approximately 700 SF of TSI located on the boiler flue that begins in the basement and extends to the main roof line of the terminal building. The asbestos abatement will be performed in accordance with these specifications and procedures outlined on the following page. Asbestos Removal: The Contractor will use wet methods for all removal operations. The Contractor is responsible for prompt clean-up and disposal of waste and debris contaminated with asbestos in leak tight containers. The Contractor will conduct a wet decontamination of equipment and tools before final clearance sampling in the work area. Prior to the removal of ACM the Contractor will establish critical barriers over HVAC return and supply air vents and negative pressure filtration within the work area. Disposable coveralls and half face air purifying respirators will be used during preparation of a work area where exposure to damaged ACM or ACM debris exists. In addition, a remote decontamination unit will be required during preparation work where exposure to damaged ACM or ACM debris exists. The Contractor will be required to use scaffolding in order to access the ACM on beams and high ceiling decks. If scaffolding is used, all applicable OSHA regulations must be followed. 1.1.3.1 Removal of Spray-Applied Fireproofing: The asbestos-containing fireproofing will be removed within full containment utilizing a minimum of two anchored layers of 6 mil polyethylene for the containment floor and a minimum two layers of 4 mil polyethylene sheeting for the containment walls. Critical barriers will be established over all openings into the work area. Any ACM debris should be adequately wetted prior to establishing perimeter critical barriers. The gross removal method of the fireproofing is described in Section 3.2.5. 1.1.3.2 Interior Building Demolition The Contractor will be required to provide equipment to remove interior building finish out materials when necessary in order to access areas containing asbestos debris, floor the and mastic, fireproofing and pipe fittings for removal. The building materials required for removal March 7; 2000 4&�nI9M DEM00-01:MACM d SO40 age 2 0�V P"'.IM Asbestos Abatement - Meacham Airport, Main Terminal Building may include but are not limited to sheetrock partition walls, plaster lathe walls, sheetrock ceiling, plaster lathe ceiling, acoustical ceiling tile, ceiling tile grid, HVAC air duct, metal conduit, metal piping and wiring. The contractor will conduct no demolition of gas lines, electrical wiring or water pressure lines inside the building unless authorized and confirmed by the Owner representative. In areas with adequate room, the Contractor will use the existing wall and ceiling in the buildings to provide structural support for an asbestos containment work area provided the containment remains sound and is not in danger of collapse. Demolition Inside of Containment Interior ceiling other structural building components will be removed inside containment when ACM may be potentially disturbed or damaged. The ceiling should be removed as intact sections in order to minimize excessive dust and asbestos fiber disturbance within the containment area. Wet demolition is the preferred method for interior demolition inside containment. The Contractor will dispose of lay-in ceiling tile as non-ACM waste unless extensively contaminated with ACM or ACM debris. Lay-in ceiling tile, metal ceiling the grid, piping, air duct and wiring may be disposed as non-ACM waste during the abatement provided it is detail cleaned and visually inspected by the Asbestos Project Manager.

Demolition authorized outside of a regulated asbestos removal area must be performed in a manner which does not contaminate or interfere with incoming fresh air (make-up air) into a containment or regulated asbestos removal area. No demolition activity will be conducted in areas outside of an asbestos containment area where ACM may be potentially disturbed or damaged. The asbestos fireproofing, TSI, floor tile and/or black mastic adhesive will be removed within full containment and by establishing critical barriers over all openings into the work area. The containment must be structurally sound so that it will not collapse under negative pressure and work conditions. A structurally unsound containment design will not be accepted. ACM debris should be adequately wetted prior to establishing perimeter critical barriers. A three-stage, wet decontamination unit will be erected for worker entrance and exit into the work area. The Contractor must establish negative air into the containment and maintain a pressure differential of -0.02 inches of water. See Appendix B, Drawings for the material location and the project design. The following requirements must be followed in areas where a full containment enclosure cannot be established: A. A negative pressure enclosure (NPE) must be used where the configuration of the work area does not make erection of a full containment enclosure feasible. B. The negative pressure enclosure may be of any configuration. C. At least 4 air changes per hour is to be maintained in the NPE. D. A minimum of -0.02 column inches of water pressure differential, relative to outside pressure, is to be maintained within the NPE as evidenced by manometric measurements.

Proper respirator use (procedures for donning and doffing respirators when entering and exiting the abatement area). 1.7.3. WRITTEN RPP PROCEDURE FOR SELECTION AND USE OF RESPIRATORS: The RPP will include a written procedure for selection and use of respirators. Procedures will be written clearly and simply for the workers to understand and use. Provide a copy to the Owner's representative of this procedure as part of contractor's qualification sheet to be completed and submitted along with proposal. Maintain an extra copy at the job site for ready reference by any authorized employee or visitor. 1.7.4. RESPIRATORS FOR ABATEMENT OPERATIONS: A. A full face or PAPR respirator with HEPA cartridges will be used for TSI and surfacing removal in a full containment. A half face respirator with HEPA cartridges will be allowed for floor tile and mastic removal operations. Exemptions from maximum respiratory protection during abatement operations: When the abatement contractor has demonstrated to the Owner's satisfaction that levels of airborne asbestos fibers in the work area are consistently below 0.1 f/cc, a full facepiece or half face respirator with HEPA cartridges may be used. The Certified Industrial Hygienist will determine if a lesser form of respiratory protection may be used. 1.7.5. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR RESPIRATOR WEARERS: Determine whether an employee is capable of wearing and using a respirator. Submit a certificate for each employee on the abatement job, signed by the examining physician and stating the employee is fit to perform all duties as assigned for asbestos abatement. 1.7.6. RESPIRATOR FIT TEST. Perform a Qualitative fit test (QFT) in accordance with OSHA regulations 29 CFR 1926.1101, Appendix C, to determine satisfactory fit with any respirator which creates a negative pressure in the facepiece, such as negative-pressure air-purifying half face respirator. Submit QFT results for each abatement employee. In the event that a full-face respirator or a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) is utilized during asbestos abatement activities a Quantitative fit test (QUFT) must be performed in accordance with the OSHA regulations. Routine donning of respirators with tight fitting facepiece requires negative and positive pressure test to ensure adequate sealing fit. This will be performed by the wearer prior to each entry into the work area. Negative pressure test: For negative pressure air-purifying respirators, close off the cartridge(s) or filter(s) by covering with the palms of the hands. The wearer will inhale gently and hold breath for at least 10 seconds. The facepiece will collapses slightly without inward leakage of air into the facepiece. Positive pressure test: For negative pressure air-purifying respirators, the exhalation valve is closed off and wearer exhales gently for at least 10 seconds. A slightly positive pressure will be built up inside the facepiece without any outward leaka e of air from the facepiece.

Alternate method of containing the work area or different definition of the limits of seal-off from the one shown on the drawings may be submitted to the Owner's representative for approval in accordance with this section. Do not proceed with any such alternatives without prior written approval by the Owner's. 1.11.4. CRITICAL BARRIERS: Completely separate the work area from other portions of the building, and the outside by sheet polyethylene barriers at least 6 mil in thickness and sealing with duct tape. Individually seal all ventilation openings (supply and exhaust), lighting fixtures, doorways, windows, and other openings into the work area with duct tape alone and with polyethylene sheeting at least 6 mil in thickness, taped securely in place with duct tape. Maintain seal until all work including project decontamination is completed. Take care in sealing off lighting fixtures to avoid melting or burning of sheeting. Provide sheet plastic barriers at least 6 mil in thickness as required to completely seal openings from the work area into adjacent areas. Seal the perimeter of all sheet plastic barriers with duct tape or spray cement. 1.11.5. PRIMARY BARRIERS: The asbestos will be removed within a full containment design which will consist of two (2) layers of 4 mil polyethylene sheeting for the walls, and two layers of 6 mil polyethylene sheeting for the floor unless floor tile is to be removed. The containment must be structurally sound so that it will not collapse under negative pressure and work conditions. A structurally unsound containment design will not be accepted. Polyethylene sheeting shall meet the requirements in accordance with current TDH rules. Visible openings observed along the perimeter walls and the ceiling shall be completely sealed polyethylene sheeting and the wall corners of the containment should be attached with an overlap of at least twelve inches. The primary barrier construction should form an air-tight, impermeable, permanent barrier around the ACM and ACM debris to contain the release of asbestos fibers into the air. No polyethylene on the walls or ceiling will be required for removal operations of wall, ceiling texture or sheetrock joint compound. Negative pressure will be required prior to these removal operations. 1.11.6. EXTENSION OF WORK AREA: If the enclosure barrier is breached in any manner that could allow the passage of asbestos debris or airborne fibers, then where possible, add affected area to the work area. Enclose it as required by this Section of the specification and decontaminate it as described elsewhere in this section. If contaminated area cannot be added to work area, decontamination measures will start immediately after contamination is discovered and work will stop in work area. Decontamination procedures will continue until exposure returns to background levels. 1.11.7. SECONDARY BARRIERS: Secondary barriers should be established in areas to separate any occupants or non-related work activity from the abatement containment to prevent dust or debris from potentially contaminating fresh air (make-up air) into the containment or regulated asbestos removal area.
