(This page left blank intentionally)
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS
1. SCOPE OF WORK
The work to be done under the contract documents shall consist of the following:
ACM Abatement removal at LP&L power plant No. 2.
The contractor shall furnish all labor, superintendence, machinery, equipment and all materials necessary to
complete this project in accordance with contract documents.
2. CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
All work covered by this contract shall be done in accordance with contract documents described in the Gen-
eral Conditions.
r.
All bidders shall be thoroughly familiar with all of the requirements set forth on the contract documents
for the construction of this project and shall be responsible for the satisfactory completion of all work
contemplated by said contract documents.
3. PLANS FOR USE BY BIDDERS
It is the intent of the City of Lubbock that all parties with an interest in submitting a bid on the project
covered by the contract documents be given a reasonable opportunity to examine the documents and prepare a
bid without charge of forfeiture of deposit. The contract documents, may be examined without charge as
noted in the Notice to Bidders.
4. TIME AND ORDER FOR COMPLETION
The construction covered by the contract documents shall be fully completed within 120 CONE HUNDRED TWENTY)
calendar days from the date specified in the Notice to Proceed issued by the City of Lubbock to the
successful bidder.
The Contractor will be permitted to prosecute the work in the order of his own choosing, provided, however,
the City reserves the right to require the Contractor to submit a progress schedule of the work contemplated
by the contract documents. In the event the City requires a progress schedule to be submitted, and it is
determined by the City that the progress of the work is not in accordance with the progress schedule so sub-
mitted, the City may direct the Contractor to take such action as the City deems necessary to insure comple-
tion of the project within the time specified.
5. PAYMENT
All payments due to Contractor shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the General Conditions of
the contract documents.
b. AFFIDAVITS OF BILLS PAID
The City of Lubbock reserves the right, prior to final acceptance of this project to require the Contractor

�— the improvements contemplated by the contract documents have been paid in full and that there are no claims
pending, of which the Contractor has been notified.
-5-
7. MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP
The intent of these contract documents is that only materials and workmanship of the best quality and grade
will be furnished. The fact that the specifications may fail to be sufficiently complete in some detail
will 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.
8. 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
pay for any and all damages of any nature whatsoever resulting in such defects, when such defects appear
within ONE year from date of final acceptance of the work as a result of defective materials or workmanship,
at no cost to the Owner (City of Lubbock).
9. PLANS FOR THE CONTRACTOR
The contractor will be furnished one set of plans and specifications, and related contract documents for his
use during construction. Plans and specifications for use during construction will only be furnished di-
rectly to the Contractor. The Contractor shall then distribute copies of plans and specifications to sup-
pliers, subcontractors or others, as required for proper prosecution of the work contemplated by the Con-
tractor.
10. PROTECTION OF THE WORK
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.
11. TEXAS STATE SALES TAX
This contract is issued by an organization which qualifies for exemption provisions pursuant to provisions
of Article 20.04 of the Texas Limited Sales, Excise and Use Tax Act.
The Contractor must obtain a limited sales, excise and use tax permit which shall enable him to buy the ma-
terials to be incorporated into the work without paying the tax at the time of purchase.
-6-
12. PROTECTION OF SUBSURFACE LINES AND STRUCTURES
i It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to prosecute the work contemplated by the contract documents in
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.
13. 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.
The Contractor will be held responsible for all damage to the work due to failure of barricades, signs, and
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.
14. EXPLOSIVES
o--
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.
Explosive materials shall not be stored or kept at the construction site by the Contractor.
In all cases where explosives are to be used during the construction of the project contemplated by this
contract, it shall be the duty of the Contractor to notify each utility company having structures (above or
below the ground) in proximity to the site of the work of Contractor's intention to use explosives, and such

1 The Contractor and the Surety, jointly and severally,
bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns to the Owner for the performance
of the Construction Contract, which is incorporated herein
by reference.
2 If the Contractor performs the Construction Contract,
the Surety and the Contractor shall have no obligation
under this Bond, except to participate in conferences as
provided in Subparagraph 3.1.
3 If there is no Owner Default, the Surety's obligation
under this Bond shall arise after:
3.1 The Owner has notified the Contractor and the
Surety at its address described in Paragraph 10 below
that the Owner is considering declaring a Contractor
Default and has requested and attempted to arrange a
conference with the Contractor and the Surety to be
held not later than fifteen days after receipt of such
notice to discuss methods of performing the Construc-
tion Contract. If the Owner, the Contractor and the
Surety agree, the Contractor shall be allowed a reason-
able time to perform the Construction Contract, but
such an agreement shall not waive the Owner's right, if
any, subsequently to declare a Contractor Default; and
3.2 The Owner has declared a Contractor Default and
formally terminated the Contractor's right to complete
the contract. Such Contractor Default shall not be de-
clared earlier than twenty days after the Contractor and
the Surety have received notice as provided in Sub-
paragraph 3.1; and
3.3 The Owner has agreed to pay the Balance of the
Contract Price to the Surety in accordance with the
terms of the Construction Contract or to a contractor
selected to perform the Construction Contract in accor-
dance with the terms of the contract with the Owner.
4 When the Owner has satisfied the conditions of Para.
graph 3, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety's ex•
pense take one of the following actions:
4.1 Arrange for the Contractor, with consent of the
Owner, to perform and complete the Construction
Contract; or
4.2 Undertake to perform and complete the Construc-
tion Contract itself, through its agents or through inde-
pendent contractors; or
4.3 Obtain bids or negotiated proposals from
qualified contractors acceptable to the Owner for a
contract for performance and completion of the Con-
struction Contract, arrange for a contract to be pre-
pared for execution by the Owner and the contractor
selected with the Owner's concurrence, to be secured
with performance and payment bonds executed by a
qualified surety equivalent to the bonds issued on the
Construction Contract, and pay to the Owner the
amount of damages as described in Paragraph 6 in ex-
cess of the Balance of the Contract Price incurred by the
Owner resulting from the Contractor's default; or
4.4 Waive its right to perform and complete, arrange
for completion, or obtain a new contractor and with
reasonable promptness under the circumstances:
.1 After investigation, determine the amount for
which it may be liable to the Owner and, as
soon as practicable after the amount is deter-
mined, tender payment therefor to the
Owner; or
.2 Deny liability in whole or in part and notify the
Owner citing reasons therefor.
5 If the Surety does not proceed as provided in Paragraph
4 with reasonable promptness; the Surety shall be deemed
to be in default on this Bond fifteen days after receipt of an
additional written notice from the Owner to the Surety
demanding that the Surety perform its obligations under
this Bond, and the Owner shall be entitled to enforce.any
remedy available to the Owner. If the Surety proceeds as
provided in Subparagraph 4.4, and the Owner refuses the
payment tendered or the Surety has denied liability, in
whole or in part, without further notice the Owner shall be
entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner.
6 After the Owner has terminated the Contractor's right
to complete the Construction.Contract, and if the Surety
elects to act under Subparagraph 4.1, 4.2, or 4.3 above,
then the responsibilities of the Surety to the Owner shall
not be greater than those of the Contractor under the
Construction Contract, and the responsibilities of the
Owner to the Surety shall not be greater than those of the
Owner under the Construction Contract. To the limit of the
amount of this Bond, but subject to commitment by the
Owner of the Balance of the Contract Price to mitigation of
costs and damages on the Construction Contract, the Sure-
ty is obligated without duplication for:
6.1 The responsibilities of the Contractor for correc-
tion of defective work and completion of the Construc-
tion Contract;
6.2 Additional legal, design professional and delay
costs resulting from the Contractor's Default, and re- ,
sulting from the actions or failure to act of the Surety
under Paragraph 4; and
6.3 Liquidated damages, or if nd liquidated damages
are specified in the Construction Contract, actual dam-
ages caused by delayed performance or non-perfor-
mance of the Contractor.
7 The Surety shall not be liable to the Owner or others for
obligations of the Contractor that are unrelated to the Con-
struction Contract, and the Balance of the Contract Price
shall not be reduced or set off on account of any such
unrelated obligations. No right of action shall accrue on
this Bond to any person or entity other than the Owner or
its heirs, executors, administrators or successors.
8 The Surety hereby waives notice of any change, includ-
ing changes of time, to the Construction Contract or to
related subcontracts, purchase orders and other obliga-
tions.
9 Any proceeding, legal or equitable, under this Bond
may be instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction in
the location in which the work or part of the work is located
and shall be instituted within two years after Contractor
Default or within two years after the Contractor ceased
working or within two years after the Surety refuses or fails
to perform its obligations under this Bond, whichever oc-
curs first, if the provisions of this Paragraph are void or
prohibited by law, the minimum period of limitation avail-

stoppage may be necessary to insure the proper execution of the contract. In order to permit delays and
disputes and to discourage litigation, it is further agreed that the Owner's Representative shall, in all
cases, determine the amounts and quantities of the several kinds of work which are to be paid for under this
contract. He shall determine all questions in relation to said work and the construction thereof, and

part of said Contractor. The Owner's Representative's estimates and findings shall be conditions precedent

Contractor to receive any money under this contract; provided, however, that should Owner's Representative
render any decision or give any direction, which in the opinion of either party hereto, is not in accordance
with the meaning and intent of this contract, either party may file with said Owner's Representative within
30 days his written objection to the decision or direction so rendered, and by such action may reserve the
right to submit the questions so raised to arbitration as hereinafter provided. It is the intent of this
Agreement that there shall be no delay in the execution of the work, therefore, written decisions or direc-
tion of the Owner's Representative as rendered shall be promptly carried out, and any claim arising there-
from shall be thereafter adjusted to arbitration as hereinafter provided.
The Owner's Representative shall, within a reasonable time, render and deliver to both the Owner and the
Contractor a written decision on all claims of the parties hereto and on all questions which may arise rela-
tive to the execution of the work or the interpretation of the contract, specifications and plans. Should
the Owner's Representative fail to make such decision within a reasonable time, an appeal to arbitration may
be taken as if his decision had been rendered against the party appealing.

tractor shall furnish all reasonable aid and assistance required by the subordinate engineers, supervisors
or inspectors for the proper inspection and examination of the work. The Contractor shall regard and obey

tractor and all risk in connection therewith shall be borne by the Contractor.
The Owner or Owner's Representatives will not be responsible for the acts or omissions of the Contractor, or

17. CONTRACTOR'S UNDERSTANDING
It is understood and agreed that the Contractor has, by careful examination, satisfied himself as to the na-
ture and location of the work, the confirmation of the ground, the character, quality and quantity of mate-
rials to be encountered, the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the
prosecution of the work, and the general and local conditions, and all other matters which in any way effect
the work under this contract. No verbal agreement or conversation with any officer, agent, or employee of
the Owner, either before or after the execution of this contract, shall effect or modify any of the terms or
obligations herein contained.

work required under this contract, to do the work; and agrees that whenever the Owner's Representative shall

21. OBSERVATION AND TESTING
The Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right at all reasonable times to observe and test the
work. Contractor shaLL make necessary arrangements and provide proper facilities and access for such obser-
vation and testing at any Location wherever work is in preparation or progress. Contractor shall ascertain
the scope of any observation which may be contemplated by Owner or Owner's Representative and shall give am-
ple notice as to the time each part of the work wiLL be ready for such observation. Owner or Owner's Rep-
resentative may reject any work found to be defective or not in accordance with the contract documents, re-
gardless of the stage of its completion or the time or place of discovery of such errors and regardless of
`^ whether Owner's Observer has previously accepted the work through oversight or otherwise. If any work
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
work is being manufactured or fabricated. ALL such tests wiLL be in accordance with the methods prescribed
by the American Society for Testing and Materials or such other applicable organization as may be required

consent of the Owner or Owner's Representative, it must, if requested by the Owner or Owner's Representa-
tive, be uncovered for observation and testing at the Contractor's expense. The cost of all such inspec-
tions, tests and approvals shaLL be borne by the Contractor unless otherwise provided herein. Any work
which fails to meet the requirements of any such tests, inspections or approval, and any work which meets
the requirements of any such tests or approval but does not meet the requirements of the contract documents
shall be considered defective. Such defective work shall be corrected at the Contractor's expense.
Neither observations by the Owner or Owner's Representative, nor inspections, tests, or approvals made by
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
It is further agreed that if the work or any part thereof, or any material brought on the site of the work
for use in the work or selected for the same, shaLL be deemed by the Owner or Owners' Representative as un-
suitable or not in conformity with plans, specification and contract documents, the Contractor shall, after
receipt of written notice thereof from the Owner's Representative, forthwith remove such material and
re -build or otherwise remedy such work so that it shall be in full accordance with this contract. It is fur-
ther agreed that any remedial action contemplated as hereinabove set forth shaLL be at Contractor's expense.

The Contractor further agrees that the Owner may make such changes and alterations as the Owner may see fit,
in the Line, grade, form dimensions, plans or or materials for the work herein contemplated, or any part
thereof, either before or after the beginning of the construction, without affecting the validity of this
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
-28-
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.
24. EXTRA WORK
The term "extra work" as used in this contract shall be understood to mean and include all work that may be
required by the owner or Owner's Representative to be done by the Contractor to accomplish any change, al-
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.
It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all extra work under the direction of the Owner's Representa-
tive when presented with a written work order signed by the Owner's Representative; subject, however, to the
right of the Contractor to require written confirmation of such extra work order by the Owner. it is also
agreed that the compensation to be paid to the Contractor for performing said extra work shall be determined
by the following methods:
Method (A) - By agreed unit prices; or
Method (B) - By agreed lump sum; or

menced, then the Contractor shall be paid the actual field cost of the work, plus
fifteen (15%) per cent.
In the event said extra work be performed and paid for under Method (C), then the provisions of this para-
graph shall apply and the "actual field cost" is hereby defined to include the cost of all workmen, such as
foremen, timekeepers, mechanics and laborers, materials, supplies, teams, trucks, rentals on machinery and
equipment, for the time actually employed or used on such extra work, plus actual transportation charges
necessarily incurred, together with all expenses incurred directly on account of such extra work, including
Social Security, Old Age Benefits, Maintenance Bonds, Public Liability and Property Damage and Workmen's
Compensation and all other insurances as may be required by law or ordinances or directed by the Owner or
Owner's Representative, or by them agreed to. Owner's Representative may direct the form in which accounts
of the actual field cost shall be kept and records of these accounts shall be made available to the owner's
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 all 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 work, 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 shall 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.

discrepancies or omissions in these plans, specifications, or contract documents, he should notify the
Owners' Representative and obtain a clarification before the bids are received, and if no such request is
received by the Owner's Representative prior to the opening of bids, then it shall be considered that the
Contractor fully understands the work to be included and has provided sufficient sums in his proposal to
complete the work in accordance with these plans and specifications. It is further understood that any re-
quest for clarification must be submitted no later than five days prior to the opening of bids.
26. RIGHT OF OWNER TO MODIFY METHODS AND EQUIPMENT

quality of work with the rate of progress required under this contract, the Owner or Owner's Representative
may order the Contractor in writing to increase their safety or improve their character and efficiency and
the Contractor shall comply with such order.
If, at any time, the working force of the Contractor is inadequate for securing the progress herein speci-

completion of this project, taking into consideration the average climatic range and industrial conditions
prevailing in this locality, and has considered the liquidated damage provisions of paragraph 33 hereinabove

of the Owner or other contractors employed by the owner, or by changes ordered in the work, or by strike,
walk -outs, acts of God or the public enemy, fire or flood. The Contractor may apply in writing for an ex-
tension of time, submitting therewith all written justification as may be required by Owner's Representative

Representative that is caused by such stoppage shall be paid by Owner to Contractor.

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

way encountered, which may be injured or seriously affected by any process of construction to be undertaken

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.

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 tL--
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.
-35-
41. PARTIAL PAYMENTS
On or before the tenth day of each month, the Contractor shall submit to Owner's Representative an applica-
tion for partial payment. Owner's Representative shall review said application for partial payment and the

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 ma-
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.
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
p— 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
-36-
date of substantial completion. The Owner or the Owner's Representative shall give notice of observed de-
fects with reasonable promptness.
46. 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) Failure 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.
47. 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.
48. ARBITRATION
All questions of dispute under this agreement shall be submitted to arbitration at the request of either
party to the dispute. The parties may agree upon one arbitrator, otherwise, there shall 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
fail to name an arbiter within ten (10) days of the demand, his right to arbitrate shall lapse, and the de-
cision of the Owner's Representative shall be final and binding on him. Should the other party fail 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 all proceedings shall be
according to and governed by Arbitration Statutes of Texas, being Article 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.
-37-
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
materials 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 shall 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 fet 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, shall pay the balance due as reflected by said statement within
30 days after the date of certificate of completion.
-38-
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 at 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 *jobsite and belong to persons other than
the Contractor or his Surety, to their proper owners.
50. 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 Work 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
shall then make a final statement of the balance due the Contractor by deducting from the above estimate all
previous payments by the Owner and all 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.
51. 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 $25,000.00. 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.
52. SPECIAL CONDITIONS
In the event special conditions are contained herein as part of the contract documents and said special con-
ditions conflict with any of the general conditions contained in this contract, then in such event the
special conditions shall control.
-39-
53. LOSSES FROM NATURAL CAUSES
Unless otherwise specified herein, all loss or damage to the Contractor arising out of the nature of the
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.
54. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
Contractor is, and shall remain, an independent contractor with full, complete and exclusive power and au-
thority to direct, supervise, and control his own employees and to determine the method of the performance
of the work covered hereby. The fact that the Owner or Owner's Representative shall have the right to ob-
serve Contractor's work during his performance and to carry out the other prerogatives which are expressly
reserved to and vested in the Owner or Owner's Representative hereunder, is not intended to and shall not at
any time change or effect the status of the Contractor as an independent contractor with respect to either
the Owner or Owner's Representative or to the Contractor's own employees or to any other person, firm, or
corporation.
55. CLEANING UP
The Contractor shall at all times keep the premises free from accumulation of debris caused by the work, and
at the completion of the work he shall remove all such debris and also his tools, scaffolding, and surplus
materials and shall leave the work room clean or its equivalent. The work shall be left in good order and
condition. In case of dispute Owner may remove the debris and charge the cost to the Contractor.

into Contract Documents clearly indicates that a less stringent
requirements is to be fulfilled. Refer apparently -equal -but -
different -requirements, and uncertainties as to which level of
quality is more stringent, to ENGINEER for a decision before
proceeding.
Abbreviations: The language of specifications and other Contract
Documents is of abbreviated type in certain instances, implying
words and meanings which will be appropriately interpreted.
Actual work abbreviations of a self-explanatory nature have been
included in the texts. Specific abbreviations have been
established, principally for lengthy technical terminology and
primarily in conjunction with coordination of specification
requirements with notations on drawings and in schedules. These
are frequently defined in the section at first instance of use.
Trade association names and titles of general standards are
frequently abbreviated. Singular words will be interpreted as
plural and plural words will be interpreted as singular where
applicable and where full context of the Contract Documents so
indicates.
INDUSTRY STANDARDS:
General Applicability of Standards: Except to the extent that
more explicit or more stringent requirements are written directly
into the Contract Documents, applicable standards of the
construction industry have the same force and effect (and are
made a part of Contract Documents by reference) as if copied
directly into Contract Documents, or as if published copies were
bound herewith. Refer to the other Contract Documents for
resolution of overlapping and conflicting requirements which
result from the application of several different industry
standards to the same unit of work. Refer to individual unit —
of work sections for indications of which specialized codes and
standards the CONTRACTOR must keep at the project site, available
for reference.
Publication Dates: Except as otherwise indicated, where
compliance with an industry standard is required, comply with
standard in effect as of date of Contract Documents.

RELATED DOCUMENTS:
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
negative pressure 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.
SECTION 01400
AIR MONITORING AND INSPECTION
TESTING LABORATORY SERVICES
PAGE 2
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.
Containment Clearance: The ENGINEER will monitor airborne fiber
counts in the Work Area at completion of gross removal
operations. The purpose of this air monitoring will be to
determine if the elevated airborne fiber counts encountered
during abatement operations have been reduced to an acceptable
level prior to removal of the primary containment barriers and
prior to Final Clearance testing.
Final Clearance: The ENGINEER will conduct Final Clearance air
sampling per Section 01410.
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
negative air 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.

AIR MONITORING AND INSPECTION
TESTING LABORATORY SERVICES
PAGE 3
.� Respiratory protection as set forth in Section 01710 shall
be worn in affected area until area is cleared for
reoccupancy in accordance with Section 01410.
Leave Critical Barriers in place until completion of Work
and insure that the operation of the negative 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 as set forth in Section 01410.
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.
ANALYTICAL METHODS:
The following methods will be utilized at the discretion of the
ENGINEER in collecting and analyzing air samples: -`
Phase Contrast Microscopy (NIOSH 7400 Method A or OSHA
Reference Method). "

Capacity of Unit with Loaded Filters (`CFM)
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. ;a.

NEGATIVE PRESSURE SYSTEM
PAGE 4
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 negative pressure 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 negative air machine may
be a practical means of accomplishing this.
Caution must be used to insure that work area remains under
negative pressure.
USE OF THE NEGATIVE PRESSURE SYSTEM:
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 all negative pressure 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 negative pressure 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 negative pressure system to
ENGINEER.
Demonstration of the Operation of the negative pressure 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
decontamination unit.
SECTION 01530
NEGATIVE PRESSURE SYSTEM
PAGE 5
movement of air through the
Measurement of the negative air pressure.
Modify the Negative Pressure 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 negative
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 negative air system, and five safe safety.
Do not shut down negative air 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 all 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.

Place one layer of adhesive tape around undamaged pipe at
each end where the glovebag will be attached.
Slit top of the glovebag open (if necessary) and cut down
the sides to accommodate the size of the pipe (about two
inches longer than the pipe diameter).
Place necessary tools into pouch located inside glovebag.
This will usually include: bone saw, utility knife, rags,
scrub brush, wire cutters, tin snips and pre -wetted cloth.
- Place one strip of adhesive tape along the edge of the open
top slit of glove bag for reinforcement.
Place the glovebag around section of pipe to be worked on,
then staple top together through reinforcing adhesive tape.
Next, adhesive tape the ends of glovebag to pipe itself,
where previously covered with plastic or adhesive tape.
Use smoke tube and aspirator bulb to test seal. Place tube
into water sleeve (two-inch opening to glovebag) squeezing
bulb and filling bag with visible smoke. Remove smoke tube
and twist water sleeve closed. While holding the water
sleeve tightly, gently squeeze glovebag and look for smoke
leaking out (especially at top and ends of the glovebag).
If leaks are found, tape close using adhesive tape and
re -test.
Insert wand from garden sprayer through water sleeve.
Adhesive tape water sleeve tightly around the wand to
prevent leakage.
One person places' his hands into the long-sleeved gloves
while the second person directs garden sprayer at the work.
Use bone saw, if required, to cut insulation at each end of
the section to be removed. A bone saw is a serrated heavy
gauge wire with ring -type handles at each end. Throughout
this process, spray amended water or removal encapsulant on
the cutting area to keep dust to a minimum.
Remove insulation using putty knives or other tools.
Place pieces in bottom of bag without dropping.
Rinse all tools with water inside the bag and place back
into pouch.
SECTION 01550
REMOVAL OF PIPE INSULATIONS (GLOVE BAG METHOD)
PAGE 4
Using scrub brush, rags and water, scrub and wipe down the
exposed pipe. (Inexpensive horse rub -down mittens work well
for this.)
Remove water wand from water sleeve and attach the small
nozzle from HEPA-filtered vacuum. Turn on the vacuum only
briefly to collapse the bag.
Remove the vacuum nozzle, twist water sleeve closed and seal
with adhesive tape.
From outside the bag, pull the tool pouch away from the
bag. Place adhesive tape over twisted portion and then cut
the tool bag from the glovebag, cutting through the twisted -
taped section. Contaminated tools may then be placed
directly into next glovebag without cleaning.
Alternatively, tool pouch with the tools can be placed in a
bucket of water, opened underwater, and tools cleaned and
dried. Discard rags and scrub brush with asbestos waste.
If more than one adjacent section of pipe is to be removed,
glovebag may be loosened at each end and slid along the pipe
to the next section. In this case, the tools may remain in
the bag for continued use. Bag can be moved only if bag is
twisted off and sealed prior to moving to next piping
section.
With removed insulation in the bottom of the bag, twist the
bag several times and tape it to keep the material in the
bottom during removal of the glovebag from the pipe.
Slip a 6 mil disposal bag over the glovebag (still attached
to the pipe). Remove tape or cut bag and open the top of
the glovebag and fold it down into disposal bag.
Clean all surfaces in the work area using disposable cloths
wetted with water with surfactant or removal encapsulant
added. When these surfaces have dried clean with a HEPA
filtered vacuum. Material adhered to a surface with removal
encapsulant may require the application of additional
removal encapsulant to facilitate cleaning.
If a removal encapsulant is used, test to insure it will
neither leave a residue that will impede visual inspection
nor become gummy during cleaning.
Seal exposed ends of remaining pipe insulation.
Remove disposable suits and place these into bag with waste.

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 washing. Provide an extra
battery pack for each respirator so that one can be charging
while one is in use.
