MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP
The intent of these contract documents is that only materials and workmanship of the best quality and grade
wilt be furnished. The fact that the specifications may fait to be sufficiently complete in some detail
wilt not relieve the Contractor of full responsibility for providing materials of high quality and for pro-
tecting them adequately until incorporated into the project. The presence or absence of a representative of
the City on the site will not relieve the Contractor of full responsibility of complying with this provi-
sion. The specifications for materials and methods set forth in the contract documents provide minimum
standards of quality which the owner believes necessary to procure a satisfactory project.
GUARANTEES
All equipment and materials incorporated in the project and all construction shall be guaranteed against de-
fective materials and workmanship. Prior to final acceptance, the Contractor shall furnish to the Owner, a
written general guarantee which shall provide that the Contractor shall remedy any defects in the work, and

use during construction. Plans and specifications for use during construction will only be furnished di-
rectly to the Contractor. The Contractor shalt then distribute copies of plans and specifications to sup-
ptiers, subcontractors or others, as required for proper prosecution of the work contemplated by the Con-
tractor.

The Contractor shall be responsible for the care, preservation, conservation, and protection of all materi- '
als, supplies, machinery, equipment, tools, apparatus, accessories, facilities, and all means of construc-
tion, and any and all parts of the work whether the Contractor has been paid, partially paid, -or not paid
for such work, until the date the City issues its certificate of completion to Contractor. The City re-
serves the right, after the bids have been opened and before the contract has been awarded, to require of a
bidder the following information:
(a) The experience record of the bidder showing completed jobs of a similar nature to the one covered by
the proposed contract and all work in progress with bond amounts and percentage completed.
(b) A sworn statement of the current financial condition of the bidder.
(c) Equipment schedule.

of Article 20.04 of the Texas Limited Sales, Excise and Use Tax Act.

terials to be incorporated into the work without paying the tax at the time of purchase. I

such a way as to exercise due care to Locate and prevent damage to all underground pipelines, utility lines,
conduits or other underground structures which might or could be damaged by Contractor during the construc-
tion of the project contemplated by these contract documents. The City of Lubbock agrees that it will fur-
nish Contractor the Location of all such underground lines and utilities of which it has knowledge. How-
ever, such fact shall not relieve the Contractor of his responsibilities aforementioned. All such under-
ground Lines or structures cut or damaged by Contractor during the prosecution of the work contemplated by
this contract shall be repaired immediately by Contractor to the satisfaction of the City of Lubbock, Texas,
at Contractor's expense.
BARRICADES AND SAFETY MEASURES
The contractor shall, at his own expense, furnish and erect such barricades,_ fences, lights and danger sig-
nals, and shall take such other precautionary measures for the protection of persons, property and the work
as may be necessary.

Lights to protect it, and when damage is incurred, the damaged portion shall be immediately removed and re-
placed by Contractor at his own cost and expense. The Contractor's responsibility for maintenance of barri-
cades, signs, and lights shall not cease until the date of issuance to Contractor of City's certificate of
acceptance of the project.
EXPLOSIVES
The use of explosives will not be permitted unless written permission to do so is obtained by the Contractor
from the City. In all cases where written permission is obtained for the use of explosives, the Contractor
shall assume full responsibility for all damage which may occur as a direct or indirect result of the blast-
ing. in addition, in all cases where explosives are authorized to be used, the Contractor shall use utmost
care so as not to endanger life or property and the Contractor shall further use only such methods as are
currently utilized by persons, firms, or corporations engaged in similar type of construction activity.

intention to use explosives, and such
notice shall be given sufficiently in advance to

Statutes providing for the payment of the wage schedules above mentioned and the bidder's obligations there-
under. The inclusion of the schedule of general prevailing rate of per diem wages in these contract docu-
ments does not release the Contractor from compliance with any wage Law that may be applicable. Construc-
tion work under this contract requiring an inspector will not be performed on weekends or holidays unless
the following conditions exist:
(1) The project being constructed is essential to the City of Lubbock's ability to provide the necessary

must notify the Owner's Representative not less than three full working days prior to the weekend or holiday
he desires to do work and obtain written permission from the owner's Representative to do such work. The
final decision on whether to allow construction work requiring an inspector on weekends or holidays will be
made by the Owner's Representative.
In any event, if a condition should occur or arise at the site of this project or from the work being done
under this contract which is hazardous or dangerous to property or life, the Contractor shall immediately
commence work, regardless of the day of the week or the time of day, to correct or alleviate such condition
so that it is no longer dangerous to property or life.

Representative, or Engineer, a certified, sworn, legible copy of such payroll. This shall contain the name
of each employee, his classification, the number of hours worked on each day, rate of pay, and net pay. The
affidavit shall state that the copy is a true and correct copy of such payroll, that no rebates or deduc-
tions (except as shown) have been made, or will in the future be made from the wages paid as shown thereon.
The Contractor must classify employees according to one of the classifications set forth in the schedule of
general prevailing rate of per diem wages, which schedule is included in the contract documents.

should be covered without approval or consent of the owner, it must, if requested by Owner or Owner's Repre-
sentative, be uncovered for examination at Contractor's expense. In the event that any part of the work is
being fabricated or manufactured at a location where it is not convenient for Owner or Owner's Representa-
tive to make observations of such work or require testing of said work, then in such event Owner or Owner's
Representative may require Contractor to furnish Owner or Owner's Representative certificates of inspection,
testing or approval made by persons competent to perform such tasks at the location where that part of the

Owner, Owner's Representative, or other persons authorized under this agreement to make such inspections,
tests, or approvals shall relieve the Contractor from his obligation to perform the work in accordance with
the requirements of the contract documents.
22. DEFECTS AND THEIR REMEDIES

for use in the work or selected for the same, shall be deemed by the Owner or Owners' Representative as un-

thereof, either before or after the beginning of the construction, without affecting the validity of this
t contract and the accompanying bond.
If such changes or alterations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the
basis for a claim for damages, or anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with. If they in-
crease the amount of work, and the increased work can fairly be classified under the specifications, such
increase shall be paid according to the quantity actually done and at the unit price established for such
work under this contract; otherwise such additional work shall be paid for as provided under Extra work. In
24.
case the Owner shall make such changes or alterations as shall make useless any work already done or mate-
rial already furnished or used in said work, then the owner shall recompense the Contractor for any material
or labor so used, and for any actual loss occasioned by such change, due to actual expenses incurred in
preparation for the work as originally planned.
EXTRA FORK

teration or addition to the work as shown on the plans and specifications or contract documents and not cov-
ered by Contractor's proposal, except as provided under Changes and Alterations herein.

by the following methods:
Method (A) - By agreed unit prices; or
Method (B) - By agreed Lump sum; or

Representative. The Owner's Representative may also specify in writing, before the work commences, the
method of doing the work and the type and kind of machinery and equipment to be used; otherwise, these mat-
ters shall be determined by the Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the prices for the use of machin-
ery and equipment shall be determined by using 100%, unless otherwise specified, of the latest Schedule of
Equipment and Ownership Expenses adopted by the Associated General Contractors of America. Where practical,
the terms and prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be incorporated in the written extra work
order. The fifteen percent (15%) of the actual field cost to be paid to Contractor shall cover and com-
pensate him for his profit, overhead, general superintendence and field office expense, and ail other ele-
ments of cost and expense not embraced within the actual field cost as herein defined, save that where the
Contractor's Camp or Field Office must be maintained primarily on account of such Extra liork,:then the cost
to maintain and operate the same shall be included in the "actual field cost."
No claim for extra work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by Owner's Representative. In
case any orders or instructions appear to the Contractor to involve extra work for which he should receive
compensation or an adjustment in•the construction time, he shall make written request to the Owner's Repre-
sentative for a written order authorizing such extra work. Should a difference of opinion arise as to what
does or does not constitute extra work or as to the payment therefore, and the owner's Representative in-
sists upon its performance, the Contractor shalt proceed with the work after making written request for
written order and shall keep adequate and accurate account of the actual field cost thereof, as provided
under Method (C). The Contractor will thereby preserve the right to submit the matter of payment to arbi-
tration as herein below provided.

No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual measured or computed length,
area, solid contents, number and weight only shall be considered, unless otherwise specifically provided.
In the event this contract is let on a unit price basis, then owner and Contractor agree that this contract,
including the specifications, plans and other contract documents are intended to show clearly all work to be
done and material to be furnished hereunder. Where the estimated quantities are shown for the various
classes of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract, they are approximate and are to
be used only as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the work and for comparing their proposals of-
fered for the work. It is understood and agreed that the actual amount of work to be done and the materials
to be furnished under this contract may differ somewhat from these estimates, and that where the basis for
payment under this contract is the unit price method, payment shall be for the actual amount of work done
and materials furnished on the project.
38. PROTECTION OF ADJOiNING PROPERTY
The Contractor shall take proper means to protect the adjacent or adjoining property or properties in any
way encountered, which may be injured or seriously affected by any process of construction to be undertaken
under this agreement, from any damage or injury by reason of said process -of construction; and he shall be
Liable for any and all claims for such damage on account of his failure to fully protect all adjacent
property. The Contractor agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the owner against any claim or claims
for damages due to any injury to any adjacent or adjoining property, arising or growing out of the perfor-
mance of this contract, but such indemnity shall not apply to any claim of any kind arising out of the exis-
tence or character of the work. r
39. PRICE FOR WORK
In consideration of the furnishing of all necessary labor, equipment and material and the completion of all
work by the Contractor, and on the delivery of all materials embraced in this contract in full conformity
with the specifications and stipulations herein contained, the Owner agrees to pay the Contractor the price
set forth in the proposal attached hereto, which has been made a part of this contract, and the Contractor
hereby agrees to receive such price in full for furnishing all materials and all labor required for the
aforesaid work, also, for all expenses incurred by him and for well and truly performing the same and the
whole thereof in the manner and according to this agreement, the attached specifications, plans, contract
documents and requirements of owner's Representative.
40. PAYMENTS
No payments made or certificates given shall be considered as conclusive evidence of the performance of the
contract, either wholly or in part, nor shall any certificate or payment be considered as acceptance of de-
fective work. Contractor shall at any time requested during the progress of the work furnish the owner or
Owner's Representative with a verifying certificate showing the Contractor's total outstanding indebtedness
in connection with the work. Before final payment is made, Contractor shall satisfy owner, by affidavit or
otherwise, that there are no outstanding liens against Owner's premises by reason of any work under the con-
tract. Acceptance by Contractor of final payment of the contract price -shall constitute a waiver of all
claims against Owner which have not theretofore been timely=filed as provided in this contract.
-36-
41. PARTIAL PAYMENTS
On or before the tenth day of each month, the Contractor shell submit to Owner's Representative an applica-
tion for partial payment. Owner's Representative shaLL review said application for partial payment and the
progress of the work made by the Contractor and if found to be in order shaLL prepare a certificate for par-
tial payment showing as completely as practical the total value of the work done by the Contractor up to and
including the last day of the preceding month; said statement shall also include the value of all sound me-
terials delivered on site of the work that are to be fabricated into the work.
The Owner shall then pay the Contractor on or before the fifteenth day of the current month the total amount
of the Owner's Representative's Certificate of Partial Payment, less 5% of the amount thereof, which 5%
shall be retained until final payment, and further, less all previous payments and all further sums that may
be retained by owner under the terms of this agreement. It is understood, however, that in case the whole
work be near to completion, and this fact is certified to by owner's Representative and some unexpected and
some unusual delay occurs due to no fault or negligence on the part of the Contractor, the owner may upon
written recommendation of Owner's Representative pay a reasonable and equitable portion of the retained per-
centage due Contractor. ..�y
42. FINAL COMPLETION AND ACCEPTANCE
Within thirty-one (31) days after the Contractor has given the Owner's Representative written notice that
the work has been completed or substantially completed, the Owner's Representative and the owner shall in-
spect the work and within said time, if the work be found to be completed or substantially completed in ac-
cordance with the contract documents, the Owner's Representative shall issue to the Owner and Contractor his
certificate of completion, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the owner within thirty-one (31) days to
issue a certificate of acceptance of the work to the Contractor.
43. FINAL PAYMENT
Upon the issuance of the certificate of completion, the Owner's Representative shall proceed to make final
measurement and prepare a final statement of the value of all work performed and materials furnished under
the terms of the agreement, and shall certify same to the Owner, who shall pay to the Contractor on or -be-
fore the 31st day after the date of certificate of completion, the balance due Contractor under the terms of
this agreement, provided he has fully performed his contractual obligations under the terms of this con-
tract; and said payment shaLL become due in any event upon said performance by the Contractor. Neither the
certificate of acceptance nor the final payment, nor any provisions in the contract documents shall relieve
the Contractor of the obligation for fulfillment of any warranty which may be required in the special condi-
tions (if any) of this contract or required in the specifications made a part of this contract.
44. CORRECTION OF WORK BEFORE FINAL PAYMENT FOR WORK
Contractor shaLL promptly remove from Owners' premises all materials condemned by the owner's Representative
on account of failure to conform to the contract, whether actually incorporated in the work or not, and -Con-
tractor shall at his own expense promptly replace such condemned materials with other materials conforming
to the requirements of the contract. Contractor shaLL also bear the expense of restoring all work of other
contractors damaged by any such removal or replacement. If Contractor does not remove and replace any such
condemned work within a reasonable time after a written notice by the Owner or the Owner's Representative,
Owner may remove and replace it at Contractor's expense.
45. CORRECTION OF WORK AFTER FINAL PAYMENT
Neither the final payment nor certificate nor any provision in this contract shall relieve the Contractor of
responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship, and he shall remedy any defects due thereto and pay for
any damage to other work resulting therefrom, which shall appear within a period of one (1) year from the
"1 .37-
46.
47.
48.
date of substentiaL completion. The Owner or the Owner's Representative shall give notice of observed de-
fects with reasonable promptness.
PAYMENT WITHHELD
The Owner may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any
certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of:
(a) Defective work not remedied.
(b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating possible filing of claims.
(c) Faiture of the Contractor to make payments promptly to subcontractors or for materials or labor.
(d) Damage to another contractor.
When the above grounds are removed, or the Contractor provides a surety bond satisfactory to the Owner,
which will protect the Owner in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of
them.
TIME OF FILING CLAIMS
It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the
Contractor shall be in writing and filed with the Owner's Representative within fifteen (15) days after the
Owner's Representative has given any directions, order or instruction to which the Contractor desires to
take exception. The Owners' Representative shall reply to such written exceptions by the Contractor and
render his final decision in writing. In case the Contractor should appeal from the decision of the owner's
Representative, any demand for arbitration shall be filed with the Owner's Representative and the owner in
writing within ten (10) days after the date of delivery to Contractor of the final decision of the owner's
Representative. It is further agreed that final acceptance of the work by the Owner and the acceptance by
the Contractor of the final payment shall be a bar to any claim by either party, except where noted other-
wise in the contract documents.
ARBITRATION
All questions of dispute under this agreement shalt be submitted to arbitration at the request of either
party to the dispute. The parties may agree upon one arbitrator, otherwise, there shalt be three; one named
in writing by each party and the third chosen by the two arbiters seLected; or if the arbiters fail to se-
Lect a third within ten (10) days, he shaLL be chosen by the District Judge, 72nd Judicial District of
Texas. Each arbiter shall be a resident of the City of Lubbock. Should the party demanding arbitration
fait to name an arbiter within ten (10) days of the demand, his rightto arbitrate shaLL lapse, and the de-
cision of the Owner's Representative shaLL be final and binding on him. Should the other party fait to
choose an arbiter within ten (10) days, the Owner's Representative shaLL appoint such arbiter. Should ei-
ther party refuse or neglect to supply the arbiters with any papers or information demanded in writing, the
arbiters are empowered by both parties to take Ex Parte Proceedings.
The arbiters shall act with promptness. The decision of any two shall be binding on both parties to the
contract, unless either or both parties shall appeal within ten (10) days from date of the award by the ar-
biters, and it is hereby agreed that each party shaLl have the right of appeal and atl proceedings shall be
according to and governed by Arbitration Statutes of Texas, being Articte 224, et seq., Vernon's Annotated
Civil Statutes. THE DECISION OF THE ARBITERS UPON ANY QUESTION SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS CONTRACT
SHALL BE A CONDITION PRECEDENT TO ANY RIGHT OF LEGAL ACTION:
-3a-
The arbiters, if they deem the case demands it, are authorized to award the party whose contention is sus-
tained, such sums as they deem proper for the time, expense and trouble incident to the appeal, and if the
appeal was taken without reasonable cause, they may award damages for any delay occasioned thereby. The ar-
biters shall fix their own compensation, unless otherwise provided by agreement, and shall assess the costs
and charges of the arbitration upon either or both parties. The award of the arbiters must be made in writ-
ing and shall not be open to objection on account of the form of proceedings or award-
49. ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR
In case the Contractor should abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within ten (10) days after written
notification from the Owner or the Owner's Representative, or if the Contractor fails to comply with the or-
ders of the Owner's Representative, when such orders are consistent with this contract, this Agreement, or
the Specifications hereto attached, then the Surety on the bond shall be notified in writing and directed to
complete the work and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the Contractor.
After receiving said notice of abandonment, the Contractor shall not remove from the work any machinery,
equipment, tools, materials or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and
equipment under the contract for work, may be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety of the
Contractor, or another contractor, in completion of the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any
rental or credit therefore (except when used in connection with Extra work, where credit shall be allowed as
provided for under paragraph 24 of this contract); it being understood that the use of such equipment and
materiels will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement.
In case the Surety should fail to commence compliance with the notice for completion hereinbefore provided
for within ten (10) days after service of such notice, then the Owner may provide for completion of the work
in either of the following elective manners:
(a) The Owner may employ such force of men and use of machinery, equipment, tools, materials and sup-
plies as said Owner may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor,
machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies to said Contractor, and the expense so charged
shall be deducted and paid by the Owner out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at
any time become due to the Contractor under and by virtue of this Agreement. in case such expense
is Less than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been com-
pleted by the Contractor, then said Contractor shalt receive the difference. In case such expense
- is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been com-
pleted by said Contractor, then the Contractor and/or his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess
to the owner; or
(b) The Owner, under sealed bids, after notice published as required by law, at least twice in a newspa-
per having a general circulation in the County of location of the work, may let the contract for the
completion of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this
contract. In case of any increase in cost to the Owner under the new contract as compared to what
would have been the cost under this contract, such increase shall be charged to the Contractor_..and
the Surety shall be and remain bound therefore. However, should the cost to complete any such new
contract prove to be less than that which would have been the cost to complete the work under this
contract, the Contractor or his Surety shall be credited therewith.
When the work shall have been substantially completed, the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified
and certificates of completion and acceptance, as provided in paragraph 42 hereinabove set forth, shall be
issued. A complete itemized statement of the contract accounts, certified to by Owner's Representative as
being correct shall then be prepared and delivered to Contractor and his Surety, whereon the Contractor or
his Surety, or the Owner as the case may be, shalt pay the balance due as reflected by said statement within
rT
30 days after the date of certificate of completion.
-39-
50.
51.
52.
41
In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which
would have been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this
contract, or when the Contractor and/or his Surety shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the
owner, then all machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies left on the site of the work shall be
turned over to the Contractor and/or his Surety. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract
price, and the Contractor and/or his Surety fail to pay the amount due the owner within the time designated
hereinabove, and there remains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies on the site of the
work, notice thereof, together with an itemized list of such equipment and materials shall be mailed to the
Contractor and his Surety.st the respective addresses designated in this contract; provided, however, that
actual written notice given in any manner will satisfy this condition. After mailing, or other giving of
such notice, such property shall be held at the risk of the Contractor and his Surety subject only to the
-
duty of the Owner to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After fifteen (15) days from the date
of said notice the Owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies and apply the net
sum derived from such sale to the credit of the Contractor and his Surety. Such sale may be made at either
public or private sale, with or without notice, as the Owner may elect. The Owner shall release any machin-
ery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies which remain on the *jobsfte and belong to persons other than
the Contractor or his Surety, to their proper owners.
ABANDONMENT BY OWNER
In case the Owner shall fail to comply with the terms of this contract, and should fail or refuse to comply
with said terms within ten (10) days after written notification by the Contractor, then the Contractor may
suspend or wholly abandon the work, and may remove therefrom all machinery, tools, and equipment, and all
materials on the ground that have not been included in payments to the Contractor and have not been incorpo-
rated into the work. Thereupon, the owner's Representative shall make an estimate of the total amount
earned by the Contractor, which estimate shall include the value of all work actually completed by said Con-
tractor at the prices stated in the the attached proposal, the value of all partially completed work at a
fair and equitable price, and the amount of all Extra York performed at the prices agreed upon, or provided
for by the terms of this contract, and a reasonable sum to cover the cost of any provisions made by the Con-
tractor to carry the whole work to completion, and which cannot be utilized. The Owner's Representative
shalt then make a final statement of the balance due the Contractor by deducting from the above estimate all
previous payments by the owner and a1L other sums that may be retained by the Owner under the -terms of this
Agreement, and shall certify same to the Owner who shall pay to the Contractor on or before thirty (30) days
after the date of the notification by the Contractor the balance shown by said final statement as due the
Contractor, under the terms of this Agreement.
BONDS
The successful bidder shall be required to furnish a performance bond and payment bond in accordance with
Article 5160, Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes in the amount of 100% of the total contract price, in the
event said contract price exceeds S25,000.00. If the contract price does not exceed $25,000.00, the statu-
tory bonds will not be required. All bonds, if required, shall be submitted on forms supplied by the Owner,
and executed by an approved Surety Company authorized to do business in the State of Texas. .And it is fur-
ther agreed that this contract shall not be in effect until such bonds are so furnished.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS

ditions conflict with any of the general conditions contained in this contract, then in such event the
special conditions shall control.,

work to be done, or from the action of the elements, or from any unforeseen circumstance and the prosecution
of the same, or from unusual obstructions or difficulties which may be encountered in the prosecution of the
work, shall be sustained and borne by the Contractor at his own cost and expense.

thority to direct, supervise, and control his own employees and to determine the method of the performance

corporation.

SECTION 01400
Drawings and general provisions of Contract, including General and Supplementary Conditions, apply to
the Work of this section.
DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK:
This section describes air monitoring and inspection services to be carried out by the ENGINEER to verify
that the Work performed is in compliance and that the building areas beyond the Work Area and the
outside environment remain uncontaminated. This section also sets forth airborne fiber levels both inside
and outside the Work Area as action levels, and describes the action required by the CONTRACTOR if
an action level is met or exceeded.
AIR MONITORING:
The ENGINEER will be conducting air monitoring throughout the course of the project.
Base Line Fiber Counts: The ENGINEER will monitor airborne fiber counts prior to start of Work. The
purpose of this air monitoring will be to establish existing airborne fiber counts prior to beginning
abatement operations.
Work Area Isolation: The ENGINEER will monitor airborne fiber counts outside the Work Area.
The purpose of this air monitoring will be to detect faults in the Work Area isolation including, but not
limited to, contamination of the building outside of the Work Area with airborne asbestos fibers, failure of
filtration or rupture in the ventilation system, or contamination of the exterior of the building with airborne
asbestos fibers.
Should any of the above occur, the CONTRACTOR shall immediately cease asbestos abatement activities
until the fault is corrected. Work shall not recommence until authorized by the ENGINEER.
Work Area Airborne Fiber Count: The ENGINEER will monitor airborne fiber counts in the Work Area.
The purpose of this air monitoring will be to detect airborne fiber counts which may significantly challenge
the integrity of the Work Area isolation procedures to protect the balance of the building or outside of the
building from contamination by airborne fibers.
Final Clearance: The ENGINEER will conduct Final Clearance air sampling in accordance with the Final
Clearance Section.
SECTION 01400
AIR MONITORING AND INSPECTION

AIRBORNE FIBER COUNTS:
Inside Work Area: Maintain an average airborne count in the Work Area of less than 0.2 fibers per cubic
centimeter. If the fiber counts rise above this figure for any sample taken, revise work procedures to lower
fiber counts. If the Time Weighted Average (TWA) fiber count for any Work shift or eight (8) hour period
exceeds 0.2 fibers per cubic centimeter, stop Work and leave ventilation system in operation. Do not
recommence Work until authorized in writing by the ENGINEER.
Outside Work Area. Maintain an average airborne count outside the Work Area of less than or equal to
Base Line as established below.
If any air sample taken outside the Work Area exceeds the Base Line, immediately and automatically stop
Work until the source of the high fiber readings can be determined by the ENGINEER. If no outside non -
asbestos source can be located by the ENGINEER and if this air sample was taken inside the building
and outside of Critical Barriers around the Work Area, immediately erect new Critical Barriers as set forth
in Section 01500 to isolate the affected area from the balance of the building or as instructed by the
ENGINEER.
Erect Critical Barriers at the next existing structural isolation of the involved space (e.g. wall,
ceiling, floor).
Decontaminate the affected area in accordance with Section 01510.
Respiratory protection as set forth in Section 01710 shall be worn in affected area until area is
cleared for reoccupancy.
Leave Critical Barriers in place until completion of Work and insure that the operation of the
reduced air pressure system in the Work Area results in a flow of air from the balance of the
building into the affected area.
If the exit from the clean room of the personnel decontamination unit enters the affected area,
establish a new decontamination facility.
After visual inspection in the extended work area, remove Critical Barriers separating the work
area from the affected area. Final Clearance air samples will be taken within the entire area.
Fiber Type Disputes: The following procedure will be used to resolve any disputes regarding fiber types
when the Project has been stopped due to excessive airborne fiber counts:
Air samples will be secured in the same area by the ENGINEER for analysis by Scanning or
Transmission Electron Microscopy at the option of the ENGINEER and classified as retests and
backcharged to the CONTRACTOR in accordance with the procedures in this specification.

PART 3 - EXECUTION
The following requirement is intended to provide a satisfactory reduced air pressure and ventilation rate
in the work area.
PRESSURE DIFFERENTIAL:
Provide a fully operational ventilation system within the work area maintaining continuously a pressure
differential across work area containment of 0.02 inches of H2O.
PREPARATION OF THE WORK AREA:
Determining the Ventilation Requirements: Provide a sufficient number of fully operational ventilation
systems to provide the equivalent of a minimum of one air change every 12 minutes, within the contained
work area. Determine the volume in cubic feet of the work area by multiplying floor area by ceiling (or
roof) height as applicable.
Determine total ventilation requirement in cubic feet per minute (cfm) for the work area by dividing this
volume by the air change rate,
Ventilation Requirement (CFM) = Volume of work area (cu.ft.)
12 (min)
Determine Number of Units needed to achieve 12 minute change rate by dividing the ventilation
requirement (CFM) above by capacity of exhaust unit(s) used. Capacity of a unit for purposes of this
section is the capacity in cubic feet per minute with fully loaded filters (pressure differential which caused
loaded filter warning lights to come on) in the machines labeled operating characteristics.
Number of Units = Ventilation Requirement (CFM)
Capacity of Unit with Loaded Filters (CFM)
SECTION 01530
VENTILATION SYSTEM
PAGE 3
Location of Exhaust Units: Locate exhaust unit(s) so that makeup air enters work area primarily through
decontamination facilities and traverses work area as much as possible. This may be accomplished by
positioning the exhaust unit(s) at a maximum distance from the worker access opening or other makeup
air sources.
Place End of Unit or its exhaust duct through an opening in the plastic barrier or wall covering.
Thoroughly seal the plastic around the unit.
Vent to Outside of Building, unless authorized in writing by the ENGINEER. This may involve the use of
additional lengths of flexible or rigid duct connected to the air outlet and routed to the nearest outside
opening. At the completion of the work, reinstall window panes which have to be removed temporarily.
Supplemental Makeup Air Inlets: Provide where required for proper air flow through the work space in
location approved by the ENGINEER by making opening in the plastic sheeting that allows air from
outside the building into the work area. Locate auxiliary makeup air inlets as far as possible from the
exhaust unit(s) (e.g., on an opposite wall), off the floor (preferably near the ceiling), and away from barriers
that separate the work area from occupied clean areas. Cover with flaps to reseal automatically if the
ventilation system should shut down for any reason. Spray flap and around opening with spray adhesive
so that flap seals if it closes.
If makeup air is coming from a contaminated or potentially contaminated source, then it should pass
through a HEPA filter before entering work area. The arrangement must be approved in advance by the
ENGINEER. Provide supply air fans to overcome the resistance of the HEPA filter. Use of a ventilation
unit may be a practical means of accomplishing this,
Caution must be used to insure that work area remains under reduced air pressure.
USE OF THE VENTILATION UNITS:
General: Each unit shall be serviced by a dedicated minimum 115V-20A circuit with overload device tied
into an existing building electrical panel which has sufficient spare capacity to accommodate the load of
ventilation units connected. Dedication of an existing circuit may be accomplished by shutting down
existing loads on the circuit. This arrangement must be approved in advance by the ENGINEER.
Testing the System: Test ventilation system before any asbestos -containing material is wetted or
removed. After the work area has been prepared, the decontamination facility set up, and the exhaust
unit(s) installed, start the unit(s) (one at a time). Demonstrate operation of ventilation system to
ENGINEER.
Demonstration of the Operation of the ventilation system to the ENGINEER shall include, but not to be
limited to, the following:
Plastic barriers, sheeting move lightly in toward work area.
Curtain of decontamination units move lightly in toward work area.
There is a noticeable movement of air through the decontamination unit.
IMeasurement of the reduced air pressure.
SECTION 01530
VENTILATION SYSTEM
PAGE 4
Modify the Ventilation System as necessary to successfully demonstrate the above to the satisfaction of
the ENGINEER.
Use of System During Abatement Operations:
Start exhaust units before beginning work (before any asbestos- containing material is disturbed). After
abatement work has begun, run units continuously to maintain a constant reduced air pressure until
decontamination of the work area is complete. Do not turn off units at the end of the work shift or when
abatement operations temporarily stop. Provide full-time, 24 hr/day monitoring of the work area to assure
security, continuous operation of the ventilation system, and fire safety.
Do not shut down ventilation system during encapsulating procedures, unless authorized by the
ENGINEER.
Start abatement work at a location farthest from the exhaust units and proceed toward them. If an electric
power failure occurs, immediately stop abatement work and do not resume until power is restored and
exhaust units are operating again.
At completion of abatement work, allow exhaust units to run to remove airborne fibers that may have been
generated during abatement work and cleanup and to purge the work area with clean makeup air.
The units may be required by the ENGINEER to run for a longer time after decontamination, if dry or only
partially wetted asbestos material was encountered during any abatement work.
Dismantling the System:
When a final inspection and the results of final air tests indicate that the area has been decontaminated,
exhaust units may be removed from the work area. Before removal from the work area, remove and
properly dispose of pre -filter, and seal intake to the machine with 6 mil polyethylene to prevent
environmental contamination from the filters.

WET REMOVAL:
Thoroughly wet to satisfaction of ENGINEER, ACM to be removed prior to stripping and/or tooling to
reduce fiber dispersal into the air. Accomplish wetting by a fine spray (mist) of amended water or removal
encapsulant applied with airless spray equipment. Saturate material sufficiently to wet to the substrate
without causing excess dripping. Allow time for water or removal encapsulant to penetrate material
thoroughly. Spray material repeatedly during the work process to maintain a continuously wet condition.
If a removal encapsulant is used, apply in strict accordance with manufacturer's written instructions.
Perforate outer covering of any installation which has been painted and/or jacketed in order to allow
penetration of amended water or removal encapsulant, or where necessary, carefully strip away while
simultaneously spraying amended water or removal encapsulant on the installation to minimize dispersal
of asbestos fibers into the air.
Mist work area continuously with amended water whenever necessary to reduce airborne fiber levels.
Apply mist with airless spray equipment.
The use of compressed air or other non -airless type equipment to wet ACM will not be permitted.
Remove saturated ACM in small sections from areas. Do not allow material to dry out. As it is removed,
simultaneously pack material while still wet into disposal bags. Twist neck of bags, bend over and seal
with minimum three wraps of duct tape. Clean outside and move to washdown station adjacent to
material decontamination unit.
After washdown of first bag, place second bag around first. Twist neck of bags, bend over and seal with
minimum three wraps of duct tape. Clean outside and move to washdown station adjacent to material
decontamination unit.
Evacuate air from disposal bags with a HEPA filtered vacuum cleaner before sealing.
Fireproofing or Architectural Finish on Scratch Coat: Spray asbestos -containing fireproofing or
architectural acoustic finish with a fine mist of amended water or removal encapsulant. Allow time for
amended water or removal encapsulant to saturate materials to substrate. Do not over saturate to cause
excess dripping. Scrape materials from substrate. Remove materials in manageable quantities and
control the descent to staging or floor below, if over 20' use drop chute to contain material through
descent. Spray mist surface continuously during work process. If using removal encapsulant, follow
manufacturer's written instructions.
Remove residue remaining on scratch coat after scraping using stiff bristled hand brush, or high pressure
washer. If a removal encapsulant is used, remove residue completely before encapsulant dries. If
substrate dries before complete removal of residue, re -wet with amended water or removal encapsulant.
Fireproofing or Architectural Finish on Wire Lath: Spray asbestos -containing fireproofing or architectural
acoustic finish with a fine mist of amended water or removal encapsulant. Allow time for amended water
or removal encapsulant to completely saturate material. Do not over saturate to cause excess dripping.
If surface of material has been painted or otherwise coated, cut small holes as required and apply
amended water or removal encapsulant from above. Cut wire lath into manageable sections and cut

hanger wires. Roll up complete with ACM and place in disposal drum (metal or fiberglass). Do not drop
on floor. After removal of lath and ACM, remove any overspray on decking and structure above using
stiff bristled brush, or high pressure washer.
Hold the nozzle from an operating HEPA filtered vacuum cleaner in the immediate vicinity of an below the
work while cutting the wire lath or otherwise disturbing the ACM. Use a two worker crew for cutting, with
one worker cutting and one worker holding the HEPA vacuum nozzle.
Pipe Insulation: Spray with a mist of amended water or removal encapsulant. Allow amended water or
removal encapsulant to saturate material to substrate. If a removal encapsulant is used, use in strict
accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Cut bands holding preformed pipe insulation, slit jackets
at seams, remove and hand -place in a disposal bag. Remove job molded fitting insulation in chunks and
hand place in a disposal bag. Do not drop to floor. Remove any residue on pipe or fitting with stiff bristle
hand brush.
In locations where pipe fitting insulation is removed from pipe with straight runs insulated with fibrous
glass or other non -asbestos -containing fibrous material, remove fibrous material 6' from the point where
it contacts the asbestos -containing insulation and seal exposed ends of remaining pipe insulation.
Cement Fiber Board: Spray cement fiber board with a fine mist of removal encapsulant. Allow time
for removal encapsulant to saturate materials. Do not over saturate to cause excess dripping. Remove
materials in manageable quantities and control the descent to staging or floor below, if over 20' use drop
chute to contain material through descent. If using removal encapsulant, follow manufacturer's written
instructions.
AIRBORNE FIBER COUNTS:
General Use work procedures that result in an 8-hour Time Weighted Average (TWA) airborne fiber count
less than that indicated in Section 01400. If airborne fiber counts exceed this level, immediately mist the
area with amended water to lower fiber counts and revise work procedures to maintain airborne fiber
levels within the required limit.

Description of Work:
Instruct and train each worker involved in asbestos abatement or maintenance and repair of friable
asbestos -containing materials in proper respiratory use and require that each worker always wear a
respirator, properly fitted on the face in the work area from the start of any operation which may cause
airborne asbestos fibers until the work area is completely decontaminated. Use respiratory protection
appropriate for the fiber level encountered in the work place or as required for other toxic or
oxygen -deficient situations encountered.
Standards: Except to the extent that more stringent requirements are written directly into the Contract
Documents, the following regulations and standards have the same force and effect (and are made a part
of the Contract Documents by reference) as if copied directly into the Contract Documents, or as if
published copies were bound herewith. Where there is a conflict in requirements set forth in these
regulations and standards, meet the more stringent requirement.

oxygen), provide a pressure -demand full facepiece supplied air respirator equipped with an emergency
backup HEPA filter.
Escape Air Supply: In atmospheres which are oxygen deficient (less than 19.5% oxygen), provide a
pressure -demand full facepiece supplied air respirator incorporating an auxiliary self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA) which automatically maintains an uninterrupted air supply in pressure demand mode
with a positive pressure facepiece.
Backup Air Supply: Provide a reservoir of compressed air located outside the work area which will
automatically maintain a continuous uninterruptable source of air automatically available to each
connected facepiece and hose assembly in the event of compressor shut -down, contamination of air
delivered by compressor, power loss or other failure. Provide sufficient capacity in the backup air supply
to allow a minimum escape time of one-half hour times the number of connections available to the work
area. Air requirement at each connection is the air requirement of the respirators in use plus the air
requirement of an average sized adult male engaged in moderately strenuous activity.
Warning Device: Provide a warning device that will operate independently of the building's power supply.
Locate so that alarm is clearly audible above the noise level produced by equipment and work procedures
in use, in all parts of the work area and at the compressor. Connect alarm to warn of:
Compressor shut -down or other fault requiring use of backup air supply,
Carbon Monoxide (CO) levels in excess of 10 PPMN.

Carbon Monoxide (CO) Monitor: Continuously monitor and record on a strip chart recorder Carbon
Monoxide (CO) levels. Place monitors in the air line between compressor and backup air supply and
between backup air supply and workers. Connect monitors so that they also sound an alarm as specified
under 'Warning Devices",
Compressor Shut -Down: Interconnect monitors, alarms and compressor so that compressor is
automatically shut down and the alarms sounded if any of the following occur:
Carbon Monoxide (CO) concentrations exceed 10 PPMN in the air line between the filter bank
and backup air supply. +
Compressor temperature exceeds normal operating range.
Compressor Motor: Provide a compressor driven by an electric motor. Do not use gas or diesel engines
to drive compressor, Insure that electrical supply available at the work site is adequate to energize motor.
If a gasoline or diesel compressor motor is made necessary by an inadequate building power supply or
other factors, the location for this equipment will be outside of the building.
In this instance the following shall apply:
Compressor Location: Locate compressor outside of building in location that will not impede
access to the building, and that will not cause a nuisance by virtue of noise or fumes to occupied
portions of the building.
Air intake: Locate air intake remotely from any source or automobile exhaust or any exhaust from
motors, or buildings.
After Cooler: Provide an after cooler at entry to filter system which is capable of reducing
temperatures to outside ambient air temperatures.
Self -Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA): Configure system to permit the recharging of 1/2
hour 2260 PSI SCBA cylinders.
PART 3 - EXECUTION
GENERAL:
Respiratory Protection Program: Comply with ANSI Z88.2 - 1980 "Practices for Respiratory Protection"
and OSHA 29 CFR 1910 and 1926; and other applicable regulations.
Require that respiratory protection be used at all times that there is any possibility of disturbance of
asbestos -containing materials whether intentional or accidental.
Require that a respirator be worn by anyone in a work area at all times, regardless of activity, during a
period that starts with any operation which could cause airborne fibers until the area has been cleared
for re -occupancy.
Regardless of Airborne Fiber Levels: Require that the minimum level of respiratory protection used be
half -face air -purifying respirators with high efficiency filters.

TYPE 'C' SUPPLIED -AIR RESPIRATORS:
Type C 'supplied air' respirators can present a hazard for workers on scaffolding due to the difficulty of
handling the attached hoses. If a supplied air system is improperly set up or it is not continuously
monitored, it can present a very real life safety hazard for workers.
Air Systems Monitor: Continuously monitor the air system operation including compressor operation, filter
system operation, backup air capacity and all warning and monitoring devices at all times that system is
in operation.
AIR PURIFYING RESPIRATORS:
Negative Pressure - Half or Full Face Mask: Supply a sufficient quantity of respirator filters approved for
asbestos, so that workers can change filters during the work day. Require that respirators be wet -rinsed,
and filters discarded, each time a worker leaves the work area. Require that new filters be installed each
time a worker re-enters the work area. Store respirators and filters at the jobsite in the changing room
in individual, clean plastic bags and protect totally from exposure to asbestos prior to their use.
Powered Air Purifying - Half or Full Face Mask: Supply a sufficient quantity of high efficiency respirator
filters approved for asbestos so that workers can change filters at any time that flow through the face -
piece decreases to the level at which the manufacturer recommends filter replacement. Require that
regardless of flow, filter cartridges be replaced after 40 hours of use. Require that HEPA elements in filter
cartridges be protected from wetting during showering. Require entire exterior housing of respirator
including blower unit, filter cartridges, hoses, battery pack, face mask, belt, and cords to be washed each
time a worker leaves the work area. Caution should be used to avoid shorting battery pack during
I� washing. Provide an extra battery pack for each respirator so that one can be charging while one is in
■1, use.
