1. GENERAL 2. SCOPE OF SERVICES 3. ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION 4. DESIGN RESPONSIBILITIES AND DOCUMENTATION 5. AREAS COVERED IN THE PROCEDURAL GUIDE FOR AE’S 6. ORDER OF PRECEDENCE FOR DESIGN CRITERIA 7. MEETINGS AND DESIGN SUBMITTALS 1. GENERAL 1.1 End Product: The requirements within this section establish the design efforts of the successful Contractor, following Design Notice to Proceed. The design shall provide a final useable product that conforms to the descriptions in Sections 01005 and 01020. 1.2. Delays caused by the Contractor in completion of the design phases are not a valid cause for extending the completion date for the entire project. 2. SCOPE OF SERVICES 2.1. General: The Architect-Engineer (AE) employed by the Contractor shall perform all the services and furnish all materials required for the production and subsequent delivery to the Contracting Officer of field investigations, surveys, design calculations, drawings, specifications, cost estimates, and electronic files as stated in these Specifications. AE shall also verify all existing conditions, including existing field measurements for incorporation within the design package. 2.2. Design Objectives 2.2.1. In general, the requirements presented are design objectives. The Architect-Engineer is encouraged to suggest changes where they would not seriously deviate from the overall requirements and would result in (1) improved performance or (2) greater environmental sustainability in arriving at the results. Read and follow Air Force standards such as Engineering Technical Letters, applicable chapters of Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 1-200-01 on General Building Requirements, UFC 1-200-02 on High Performance and Sustainable building Requirements, UFC 3-600-1 on Fire Protection Engineering, , UFC 4-010-01 on Antiterrorism Standards, and applicable sections of the RAFB Base Facility Standards.

2.2.2. Project Specifications: A. Preparation of Specifications:

1. The designer shall use Robins AFB Division 1 and UFGS specs to develop the specs included in this package, in accordance with the outline in the contract and Robins Air Force Base Facility Standards. Contact the Contracting Officer or Base Project Manager after Notice to Proceed (NTP) to obtain a CD or e-mail containing all of the Robins AFB Division 1 and Robins Air Force Base Facility Standards. 2. The Government has provided with the contract package an index of specifications for Divs. 02-46 for this contract. Provided are all of the sections anticipated for the design.



REVISED 10-May-2013

3. Division 1: The Government has edited certain Division 1 sections, and they are included in the contract.

a. To edit one of the Division 1 Sections already in the contract, such as Environmental Section, 01560, submit the request in a separate letter/e-mail directly to the Base Project Manager. Either spell out the requested change, or provide a complete edited Section that shows tracked changes. The Base Project Manager will then reply to the Contractor with approval/disapproval details on the proposed edits. Include the revised Section in the Specifications package. Also, include the Base Project Manager's reply in the Design Analysis. b. Include other available Division 1 Sections when practical, edited as needed. Ensure that they do not conflict with the Sections already in the contract, since the contract Sections take precedence.

4. Divisions 02-46:

a. The contractor must provide properly edited versions for the required sections in Divisions 02 through 46. The specs either are as provided or shall be taken from the Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) package. If a suitable UFGS or Govt. spec. is not available for the required material/system, a suitable specification consistent with industry standards may be used but will be subject to approval by the Project Manager. b. Editing of Divisions 02 through 46 shall remove references to materials/systems that are not a part of the scope of the project. Leaving these within the spec. will cause confusion as to the materials/systems intended. Example: If a project contains metal studs only, Section 06 10 00 Rough Carpentry should not have references to wood studs. c. Add or delete RAFB Division 1 Sections from Divs 02-46 as needed for the design effort. All such additions and/or deletions shall be documented in the Design Analysis and are subject to approval/disapproval by 78 CEG/CENMP Project Manager.

B. Material Submittals:

1. The specification sections listed in the outline contain lists of material submittals. The contractor shall provide all applicable material submittals as listed. 2. It is best to provide the material submittals with the design packages to avoid delays in the Government granting approval for the contractor to start site work. Where material submittals are provided with design packages, each material submittal shall have its own AF Form 3000 and will require additional time beyond the design submittal review. Material submittals made at other times must use AF Form 3000 and may have a 4-week turnaround.

2.2.3. Pointers on Design Negotiation A. Formal Conferences: We expect the design firm to send only one to two persons to each formal review meeting on Preliminary and Final Designs.



REVISED 10-May-2013

B. Direct design fees shall not exceed 6.0% of construction cost, since we have provided the design concept in Sections 01005 and 01020. C. Visits and involvement by design firm personnel after the approval and base signing of Corrected Final documents are to be covered out of design firm overhead, at design firm expense, as is customary in the industry. D. The Government will not pay for the design firm pre-construction work. This is also to be covered out of the design firm's overhead.

3. ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION 3.1. Contract Administration Authority 3.1.1. Authority: The Contracting Officer in Base Operational Contracting, AFSC/PZIOC, is responsible for the administration of this contract. The Contracting Officer has designated the Office of the Civil Engineer as the design and technical surveillance representative for this contract. 3.1.2. Design Guidance: Only the Contracting Officer can make changes in the description of the scope and provisions of this contract. No other verbal or written instructions by Government personnel carry any such authority. On many design-build projects, the user personnel may attempt to provide additional guidance and/or requests to the design firm during the design stages, especially when design firm personnel visit the work site. Further, the design firm personnel often request clarifications directly to the user personnel. Neither of these are acceptable actions. Only the Office of the Civil Engineer is authorized to provide design guidance, not the user personnel, and only in those cases where the directions do not constitute a "change" to the contract. 3.1.3. Changes without Proper Authority: The contractor must direct all concerns about contract changes to the Contracting Officer in writing, especially if they appear to involve an increase or decrease in scope that may require a formal contract change and adjustments in contract cost. If the contractor does not follow these requirements before acting on any such directions or instructions by other than the Contracting Officer, then the contractor takes such actions at its own expense. 3.2. Design Fee Payments 3.2.1. When to Bill: Do not bill for any design work until the action (such as a review conference) has been completed or held for that phase. 3.2.2. Decision: The Base Project Manager will decide whether each stage has been accomplished satisfactorily. 3.2.3. Fee payment guidelines: These are for the design portion of the contract without phasing:

Prefinal/Preliminary Conference Met 60% of design cost First Final Conference Met 80% of design cost Final CADD, Word Proc Disks verified by Base as correct 100% of design cost

01300 - 2 of 9

1. Review, Corrections, or Comments made on the Submittals do not relieve the contractor from

compliance with the requirements of the Drawings, Specifications, Addendums, and Contract

Documents. By entering into this contract, the contractor agrees that the purpose of submittals

is to demonstrate to the contracting officer that the contractor understands the design concept

and that he demonstrates his understanding by indicating which equipment and material he

intends to furnish, install, and use. Review of shop drawing will be general only for basic

conformance with the design concept. The Government’s review of such drawings, schedules,

or cuts shall not relieve the contractor from the responsibility for correcting all errors of any

sort contained in the submittals.

2. The contractor is responsible for confirming and correlating all quantities and dimensions;

selecting proper fabrication processes, construction methods and installation techniques;

coordinating this work with that of all other trades; and performing all work in a safe,

workmanlike and satisfactory manner.

3. The Government has not stipulated dates for turning in material submittals, unless noted

elsewhere in the specifications. The contractor must manage his/her material and equipment

lead times for obtaining approval in sufficient time to complete work on schedule.

1.02 SUBMITTALS: Provide the following submittals as required by the contract or as directed


Inspector

Para # Description Date Required Check Mark

1.05 A Superintendent Data As Directed ___

1.08 Equipment List 30 Days before Prefinal ___

1.03 SUBMITTAL INSTRUCTIONS: Each Specification Section lists the submittal requirements unique

to it. The following apply to all sections.

A. SUBMITTAL FORMS: Material submittals shall be made using AF Form 3000. For design-

build (DB) projects, all design submittals only require a transmittal letter. Material submittals

included with DB design packages do not require the use of the AF Form 3000, but they are

considered part of the design package.

B. MATERIAL SUBMITTALS:

1. COMPLETE SUBMISSIONS: All items requiring submittals for each section shall be

provided at one time. Partial submittals will be returned without approval. No time extensions

will be granted for failure to comply. In some instances the specifications may require certain

items from one or more specifications sections to be submitted at one time. For example,

condensing units and air handler submittals may be required to be provided together.

2. SUBMITTAL CHECKLIST: The contractor shall complete a copy of the checklist

provided in the submittals paragraph of each specification section. This checklist shall be




01300 - 3 of 9

provided with each submittal. Submittal information shall be arranged in order to correspond

with each checklist.

3. TIME: The Contractor shall have approved submittals before ordering any equipment

under this contract. If equipment is ordered prior to receiving approval, it will be solely at the

Contractor’s risk. Under no circumstances will material be installed prior to approval of

submittals. There will be no time schedule for providing material submittals unless noted

elsewhere in the specifications. The Contractor will be required to manage his

materials/equipment lead times and obtain approval in sufficient time to complete the work on

schedule. Disapproval of incomplete or unsatisfactory submittals shall not be grounds for

contract extensions. Other submittals such as as-builts, test reports, etc., shall be provided as

indicated.

4. MANUFACTURER’S DATA: When the specifications contain an “X” under the

“Manufacturer’s Data Required” field of the submittals paragraph checklist, then the

submission of manufacturer’s data is required. If an “X” is in the “Certificate of Compliance”

field, then it becomes the Contractor’s option to submit manufacturer’s data or a Certificate of

Compliance as detailed below.

5. EXCEPTIONS: If any material proposed for use on this contract deviates from the

specifications, the Contractor shall submit those proposed deviations for approval along with

detailed justification. All exceptions and deviations shall be described in detail with each

product submittal. Cost will not be considered a justification for taking exceptions unless a

credit is offered to the Government.

6. SUBSTITUTIONS: Products provided by manufacturers other than those specified as the

“design basis” shall be considered substitutions.

a. All features of items submitted as substitutions are implied to be in full compliance

with Specifications and Drawings if not specifically noted as "Exceptions."

b. Where a design basis is referenced in Specifications and Drawings, substitutions must

meet or exceed the salient features of the design basis as determined by the Technical

Representative of the Contracting Officer. Exceptions to design basis characteristics

must be clearly noted as "Exceptions." Note: The Federal Acquisition Regulations

place the burden of proving the substitute as equal or better on the contractor.

c. Changes required to accommodate approved substitution shall be made at no

additional cost to the Government. For example, an approved motor substitution may

require upsized electrical cable and conduit.

7. Certificate of Compliance: The Contractor may, at his option, submit a “Certificate of

Compliance” (COC) in lieu of providing manufacturer’s catalog cuts/data. Only one

COC will be required per specification section. Submit three copies of each COC

package. The COC must be signed by the contractor and either the supplier or the




01300 - 4 of 9

manufacturer. The COC letter is attached at the end of this specification section. The

letter must be completed in full.

C. OTHER SUBMITTALS: Other submittals such as samples, test results, spare parts, etc.,

shall be provided as required by each specification section. Provide 4 copies of each unless

directed otherwise. Upon request contractor shall provide any other submittals as required by the

COR.

D. CONSTRUCTION REPORTS

1. PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE

a. Submit a schedule for the entire contract at the Kickoff (Preperformance or

Preconstruction) Meeting, or before that meeting if so directed elsewhere in these

specifications.

(1). The schedule for the entire contract may be submitted in Microsoft

Project format if the contractor so chooses. The Government will also accept

similar sequence patterns shown in Word or Excel if they are properly developed

and displayed.

(2). If there are several projects in one contract, submit a separate

schedule for each project at the same time.

b. Include timelines for design (as applicable), mobilization, start site work,

separate timelines for each discipline and subcontractor, prefinal and final inspection

times, punchlist completion, and demobilization.

c. The contracted total allotted time and the Government's estimate for each

part of the schedule are included in the attachment to this specification.

(1). The attached schedule includes days after award for holding the Pre-

performance or Preconstruction Meeting and for one resubmittal of documents

provided by the Contractor at the meeting.

(2). No (design or) construction work may begin until the Contracting

Officer has approved the schedule.

(3). Resubmit if and as directed by the Contracting Officer. (Also, see

section 01030 if this is a design-build project.)

(4). If the approval process takes longer than the amount of days allotted,

that will not result in a time extension for the entire contract.

2. PROJECT PAY SCHEDULE




01300 - 5 of 9

a. Also submit at the Kickoff (Pre-performance or Pre-construction) Meeting

time schedule(s) on AF Form 3064 that show(s) the percentage completion timeline.

This establishes the pay schedule.

(1). Ensure the Form 3064 matches up with the Project Time Schedule

described above, even if that requires two or more pages of the Form 3064.

(2). Also ensure the price percentages match up with the approved price

proposal at each step on the timeline.

(3). For design-build projects, submit two separate 3064’s for design and

construction. Follow the Schedule described above for dates, and use the price

proposal to get your percentages. Invoices during construction shall show 100%

design that was paid, and the current percent complete on the construction part.

Show that the sum of design and construction subtotals adds up to the grand total

for each design-build project.

3. MEETING RECORDS:

a. Whenever the contractor meets with Government representatives to discuss

outstanding issues or details, the contractor shall prepare a written meeting record of

major decisions made and of action items, noting person responsible and date due for

each item. These will stand as accepted by the Government unless contradicted by

Government personnel who attended the meeting.

b. No decisions made constitute a contract change - the Contracting Officer

handles these in separate contract modification packages.

c. Meeting records are due by e-mail or fax to all offices represented at the

meeting by no later than two workdays after the meeting.

d. The Contracting Officer considers any resolved issues, decisions, or

identified action items to the benefit of the Contractor without these written records to

have never happened, since they were not documented and accepted by the

Government.

e. For additional record purposes, either the Contractor or the Government

may elect to audiotape the meeting.

4. PROGRESS REPORTS:

a. Prepare and submit a monthly progress report (AF Form 3065) for each

project and the entire contract on a monthly basis.




01300 - 6 of 9

b. Obtain coordination signature on the monthly progress reports from the

Technical Representative of the Contracting Officer (CENME Inspector) before

submitting to the Contracting Officer.

E. LIST OF VALUES: Include for approval with the first monthly progress report a breakout of

net costs for each item of work for the project. These are costs that include materials, labor,

equipment, overhead and profit, etc. to be prorated against each item. These numbers are for

use by the base to improve future estimates.

F. LOG BOOKS:

1. Keep daily logs of the activities of the prime contractor and subcontractor

employees. The logs shall include the following:

a. Date

b. Number of people on the job site and skills for each

c. List of construction equipment on the job site

d. Types of work accomplished and how much

e. Materials delivered to the job site

f. Problems and their impacts that arose with the site, the Inspector, facility

users, subcontractors, and the weather.

2. Provide a copy of this daily log (or the original) to the Technical Representative

of the Contracting Officer (CENME Inspector) weekly.

1.04 RETURN AND DISAPPROVAL OF SUBMITTALS: This is a routine project. The Contracting

Officer will return submittals made with AF Form 3000 to the Contractor within 14 days after receipt,

using the AF Form 3000 to show approval or disapproval. Resubmit revisions of disapproved submittals

within 14 days after receipt of disapproval, again using AF Form 3000. Disapproval shall not be cause

for time extension.

1.05 SUPERINTENDENT:

A. When requested, provide name and qualifications for review. Designate a competent person

who shall have full authority to act for the Contractor and who shall be the primary contact

with the Government until project acceptance. The superintendent is a non-working site

supervisor/manager who shall be on site at all times when any Contractor personnel are on

site. The “site” is defined as the location where construction work is being done. The

Government through the Contracting Officer or Technical Representative of the Contracting

Officer (CENME Inspector) reserves the right to shut down all Contractor site activities if the

superintendent is not on site at such times. Site work shall not resume until the superintendent

has returned to the site. Several violations of this requirement are cause for termination for

default.




01300 - 7 of 9

B. If the FAR clause requiring the formal Superintendent is not included in the contract, then the

Contractor shall have a designated work leader or foreman on site during all occasions when there are

two or more personnel on site. There shall always be “someone in charge” who has authority to act for

the Contractor at all such times, even if the person is just the most senior of the laborers on site.

Section 01310. The Government will not make Final Payment to the Contractor until these are fully

accepted and approved.

1.08 PROVIDE EQUIPMENT LIST to Contracting Officer.

A. Indicate the make, model number, and warranty expiration date of equipment installed by

Contractor. The Technical Representative will inform the Contractor which equipment should be on list.

After the Government approves the list, complete the GSA Forms 274 obtained from Technical

Representative, and then place these labels on the equipment in the list before prefinal inspection.

B. If any of the equipment needs repair during the warranty period, prior to the expiration date,

the Contractor Officer will notify the contractor of the problem. Also, the Contracting Officer’s Technical

Representative will be notified to accompany the Contractor to the equipment. The contractor shall

provide a service ticket to the Contracting Officer and Technical Representative to indicate the corrective

action taken to remediate the problem with the equipment.

1.09 FINAL INSPECTION ONLY: If the Contracting Officer elects to have only a final inspection, turn

in prefinal inspection submittals before the final inspection.

1.10 CLOSEOUT REPORT

A. Record: Keep a record of all new equipment, facility square footage, utility runs, and items

that may be considered “real property” which are purchased and installed under the contract,

separated by project for multiple project contracts. Upon request, the Technical Representative

changes, xx% submittal" printed in large red letters on the title sheet (replace "XX" with the

percentage of the submittal).

c. Do not submit drawings with stray markings or sketches made in the field which are

not red and are not intended to convey as-built information. Do not create new drawings to

convey as-built conditions. Submit all redline information on an otherwise clean sheet of "hard

copy" contractor drawings. Reproduction of a clean set is the responsibility of the contractor.

3. The Inspector will evaluate the submittal for correctness and completeness and either approve

or disapprove them via notation on the AF Form 3000. If the submittal is disapproved, it will be

returned to the contractor, along with directions for corrections. Incorporate these corrections into the

drawings and resubmit with AF Form 3000 for approval.

4. After receipt of the Inspector’s approval and prior to updating the drawings electronically,

contact the Inspector and make contact with the As-built Coordinator for the originating design office to

discuss technical issues associated with preparing the final as-built drawings.

5. Final Inspection Set

a. Submit (with AF Form 3000) prior to Pre-Final Inspection a 11” x 17” redline as-built

drawings for approval, along with a full set of electronic drawing files (sheet files and model

files) provided by the Government per para. 3.01.2 above, modified electronically to reflect the

reflect the redline changes made on the hardcopy drawings. Accomplish all changes to the

electronic drawing files according to industry standard CADD drawing practices acceptable to

the Government. . The as-built hard copy shall show all red lines in red color.

b. Maintain the file names and naming pattern of the files as provided by the

Government.

c. Label the drawings as “Final As-built” in the revision block area of the electronic

drawings.

d. Retain the existing georeferenced model file and sheet file structure originally used to

produce the drawings to create the final drawings. Maintain the links of the reference (model)

files. For example, if the floor plan was a model file, any changes to the floor plan shall be

accomplished on the model file. If utility lines were a part of the sheet file, the changes shall be

made to the sheet file.

e. Also submit PDF format files of all drawings readable with Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Format files are to be printed at a 1:1 scale on the original size sheet (no enlargement or

reduction will be allowed for accurate plotting to the original size sheet).

6. The Inspector and As-built Coordinator will reevaluate for correctness and completeness and

then provide either approval or further directions for corrections to the Contractor.

7. Resubmit (with AF Form 3000) complete submittals as directed until the Government

provides full approval.

provided by the Government.

4. Notes shall be legible and changes shall be shown clearly indicating differences, however

minor, between actual construction and project drawings. Include corrections to underground utilities

and unforeseen site conditions discovered during performance of contract.

5. Update the indexes of the electronic files to reflect any changes.

3.04 Utility Data: Provide the following exterior utility information as “smart lines” when already on

the original drawing files. If smart lines were not used, then provide a separate file in Microsoft Word

or Excel format with the following data, as a minimum, for each segment of utility lines:

Size

Material

Depth

Date Installed (Normally to coincide with warranty date)

3.05 Accuracy of Dimensions for Site Drawings: Locate all significant exterior features and utility

lines within a one (1) foot accuracy for purposes of as-built submission, even if not changed during

construction.

1. The locating may be accomplished by traditional survey methods or by global positioning

system (GPS) satellite equipment supplemented by traditional methods where required.

2. Locations may be from existing buildings or from base monument system. Any existing

structures used as a survey reference must be checked for conformity to NAD 83 surveying coordinates.

3. Recognize that the base maps which are often the basis for the contract site plans have been

prepared from aerial photographs and as such show the roofline instead of the building structure line.

3.06 Qualified Firms for CADD and GPS Support: The Contractor may use any commercial firm or in-

house resources to accomplish the requirements. In some cases we used an Architect-Engineer (A-E)

firm to design the project, and in those cases they are noted on the Drawings and may be used if desired.

If requested, the Inspector will also provide names of other firms the Government believes should be

capable of providing the services required, based upon base personnel experience with them.

1.5 REGULATORY BACKGROUND

Section 6002 of RCRA requires federal agencies to give preference in the acquisition process to

products and practices that conserve and protect natural resources and the environment. EO 12873

requires federal agencies to expand waste prevention and recycling programs, implement green

procurement programs for the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) -designated

items, and procure other environmentally preferable products and services. The stated purpose of the

Green Procurement Program is to stimulate the market for recovered materials. As a result of EO

12873, the EPA issued the Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines (CPGs) that have established the

mandatory procurement by federal agencies of 36 items produced with recovered materials. The EPA

has also issued Recovered Material Advisor Notices (RMANs) to accompany the CPGs and provide

detailed information on the designated items. Section 9002 of The Farm Security and Rural

Investment Act (FSRIA) was signed into law in 2002. A goal of that legislation is to increase the

government’s purchase and use of biobased products. In addition to lessening our national

dependence on foreign oil, use of biobased materials promotes economic development by creating

new jobs in rural communities and providing new markets for farm commodities. Please direct all

questions regarding the plan to the Contracting Officer's Representative for forwarding to the 78

CEG/CEV Environmental Division, 478-327-4173.

Instruction (AFI) 32-7080, Pollution Prevention Program, and the 24 July 1995 Air Force Pollution

Prevention Strategy. The Strategy sets program goals, and the AFI provides program guidance.

1.8 EXEMPTIONS

1.8.1 EPA Recommendations

The U.S. EPA recommends minimum content levels for those items listed in the attached GREEN

PROCUREMENT REPORTING FORM. These levels are mandatory for Air Force procurements

unless one of the following exemptions applies. RCRA provides the following exemptions from the

requirement to purchase EPA-designated items:

1. The product is not available from a sufficient number of sources to maintain a satisfactory

level of competition (i.e., available from two or more sources).

2. The product is not available within a reasonable period of time.

3. The product does not meet the performance standards in applicable specifications or fails to

meet reasonable performance standards of the procuring agency.

4. The product is not available at a reasonable price. For Air Force purposes, "unreasonable

price" is defined as follows: If the price of the recycled-content product exceeds the cost of

a non-recycled item, then the price is considered unreasonable.

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 GENERAL SCOPE

This Section provides the requirements necessary to ensure that all projects are in environmental compliance.

Environmental Management, 78 CEG/CEIE, is the organization responsible for management of base

environmental concerns. Contact program managers in 78 CEG/CEIE at (478) 327-8104 or (478) 926-9645 or

electronically [email protected].

1.1.1 The following programs have the potential to be impacted by contracts: solid and hazardous

wastes, toxics, water quality, air quality, natural resources, storage tanks, cultural resources,

pollution prevention, hazardous materials, and fuels.

1.1.2 All contracts performed on Robins Air Force Base (AFB) are bound by all Federal, State of Georgia,

Houston County, Department of Defense (DoD), and Air Force laws, regulations, and policies and

subject to no-notice inspections by these regulators and officials. Robins AFB operates under the

requirements of 10 regulatory permits and over 20 management plans. The following table

identifies applicable Air Force Instructions (AFI) related to this document that also requires

compliance.

Air Force Instructions

AFI 32-1053 Integrated Pest Management Program

AFI 32-1067 Water and Fuel System

AFI 32-7040 Air Quality Compliance and Resource Management

AFI 32-7042 Waste Management

AFI 32-7044 Storage Tank Environmental Compliance

AFI 32-7064 Integrated Natural Resources Management

AFI 32-7065 Cultural Resources Management

AFI 32-7086 Hazardous Materials Management

1.1.3 A digging permit obtained from the 78th Civil Engineer Group is required for all projects where

excavation or other forms of ground penetration may be required to complete the task. This permit

process is the method used by the Base to coordinate the required work with key base activities and

to identify potentially hazardous work conditions; in an attempt to protect personnel, prevent

accidental damage to Base assets, and ensure the proper restoration of the excavated site upon

completion.

mailto:[email protected]


Page 6 of 32

1.2 CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITY

Comply with all applicable Federal, State of Georgia, any laws and regulations from other states where disposal

might occur, and local laws and regulations concerning environmental compliance and pollution prevention.

Ensure all products produced or generated under contract shall meet all stated performance objectives and shall

not violate in any manner the Environmental Requirements of any applicable local, state, or federal entity

including the DoD.

1.2.1 Environmental Management Systems (EMS) Awareness Training: All contractor personnel working

on Robins AFB who perform activities on the installation are required to complete Air Force-

provided initial EMS Awareness Training. It is the responsibility of the Prime Contractor to ensure

that all sub-contractors, vendors, and employees complete this training prior to beginning work on

Robins AFB. Notification of training completion shall be sent to both the Robins AFB Contracting

Officer (CO) to be maintained in the contract file and Environmental Management, 78 CEG/CEIE,

([email protected]) for tracking purposes. Failure to provide documentation of EMS

Training may result in termination of the contract.

EMS training is provided by Environmental Management at (478) 327-8104 or (478) 926-9645.

Contractors have two options to satisfy the mandatory EMS Awareness Training requirement.

Contractors that do not have a Common Access Card must exercise Option 2.

a. Option 1 (Preferred Option): The Air Force version of EMS Awareness Training is available

through the Advanced Distributed Learning Service (ADLS) website:

https://golearn.adls.af.mil/kc/rso/login/ADLS_login.asp. EMS Awareness Training is located

under the Miscellaneous tab. This option is only available to contractors who have a CAC

and takes approximately 10 minutes to complete.

b. Option 2: Contractor requests a copy of the Robins EMS Awareness Training Power Point

Presentation from Environmental Management. The request should be sent to the

Environment Management Workflow Box at the following email address,

[email protected]. Once the presentation is received, the contractor is

responsible for ensuring that all his/her employees view the training.

1.3 NO NOTICE INSPECTIONS

78 CEG/CEIE will conduct no-notice inspections to ensure compliance with all Environmental

Requirements. Written documentation of any findings from such an inspection will be forwarded to the

CO by the inspector. The CO will follow-up with the Contractor on all findings of non-compliance

reported by the inspector. A finding of non-compliance with any of the Environmental Requirements

may result in the issuance of a work stoppage by the CO until documentation of compliance is submitted

and accepted by both 78 CEG/CEIE and the CO. No-notice inspections are frequently conducted by

federal and state regulators.

PART 2 EXECUTION

2.1 DISPOSAL OF WASTE/EXCESS MATERIAL

2.1.1 General: The Contractor shall take a proactive, responsible role in the management of non-hazardous solid

waste and require all subcontractors, vendors, and suppliers to participate in the effort. Non-hazardous

Solid Waste, as defined in Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 261.2, dispositioned for disposal shall be

removed from the base in accordance with all Federal, State of Georgia, and local codes and requirements.

Every effort shall be made to segregate individual waste streams and divert waste from any landfill by

reusing or recycling materials. Direct all non-hazardous solid waste inquiries to 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste

Program Manager, (478) 327-9283 or (478) 926-9645.

2.1.2 Solid Waste Handling: All persons engaged in solid waste handling, including solid waste collection and

transportation, or operations of solid waste handling facilities or disposal sites, shall have a solid waste

handling permit or permit by rule letter. The provisions of Georgia Environmental Protection Division (GA

EPD) regulations concerning proper handling of solid waste and applicable prohibitions shall govern. All


Page 9 of 32

materials and equipment not turned in to the Government is considered property of the contractor and

must be properly removed by the end of the project.

2.1.3 Solid Waste Disposal: Use one or more of the following methods to divert/dispose of non-hazardous solid

waste. All materials to be disposed of in other than a sanitary landfill must be kept segregated at the project

site from those materials which are allowed only in a sanitary landfill.

a. Reuse (diversion): First consideration of waste shall be given to salvage for reuse to be used in the

original form. Sale or donation of waste suitable for reuse shall be considered. Salvaged materials

shall not be used in this project unless approved by the CO. Materials defined as “recovered

materials” are excluded from regulation as solid wastes.

b. Recycling (diversion): Waste material not suitable for reuse but having value as a recyclable

material shall be recycled whenever practical and economically feasible. Materials destined for

recycling must meet the definition of non-hazardous wastes under federal/state solid waste

regulations. Recyclable metal materials shall remain the property of the government and be

recycled through the Robins AFB Qualified Recycling Program (QRP). To coordinate

removal/collection of scrap wire and metal, please contact QRP Manager Casey Lucas at (478) 327-

9283 or Alternate QRP Manager Darryl Mercer at (478) 256-7032.

c. Sanitary Landfill (disposal): All solid waste may be disposed of in a sanitary landfill properly licensed

by the State of Georgia. Provide proof that any Georgia municipal solid waste disposal facility

receiving Robins AFB waste is operated by someone who has obtained the certification required by

the Georgia Solid Waste Management Act, O.C.G.A. 12-8-24.1. If a landfill other than Houston

County Landfill is used, provide a copy of the landfill license.

i. If the presence of lead based paint, asbestos, or other hazardous materials are suspected,

an analysis of the suspected material shall be performed by a certified lab approved by the

State. If the Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) results for lead are greater than

5 mg/L, the waste shall be disposed of as hazardous waste in a Subtitle C permitted facility--

not a Subtitle D permitted facility such as the Houston County Landfill. If the lab analysis for

asbestos is positive, the permission for landfill disposal is required and waste must be

dispositioned through the Special Waste Acceptance Application (SWAA) process. Houston

County Landfill currently does not require a SWAA if there is no presence of lead based

paint, asbestos, or other non-hazardous Special Waste or hazardous materials suspected.

ii. SWAA Process: The results of the tests/lab analysis as well as the completed top and middle

portion of the SWAA must be submitted to 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager for

approval and signature. The 78 CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager will be the signing

authority as the generator on the SWAA form. 78 CEG/CEIEC will email the completed form

to the County’s landfill consultant for disposal acceptance/approval and for issuance of

Special Waste Profile Number. The Special Waste Profile Number must be used on the

Waste Shipment Tracking Document. The Waste Shipment Tracking Document and SWAA

are both attached at the end of the document. Allow a minimum of three working days for

78 CEG/CEIEC to process the SWAA form and to obtain the profile number. The 78

CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager will issue the completed SWAA back to the

contractor via email. The Contractor must certify that no hazardous waste was introduced

into the waste while in his custody. The contractor must provide a Waste Shipment

Tracking Document with each disposal load when required by Houston County. These forms

must also be included in contract documents.

d. Inert Waste Landfill (disposal): Materials not likely to cause production of leachate of

environmental concern may be disposed of in an inert waste landfill. Only earth and earth-like

products, concrete, cured asphalt concrete, rock, bricks, yard trimmings, and land clearing debris

such as stumps, limbs, and leaves are acceptable for disposal in an inert waste landfill. A copy of the

written notice of commencement of operation by the landfill as given to the GA EPD and a copy of

the landfill license or permit by rule letter issued by the GA EPD must be provided to the Base

Engineering Division (78 CEG/CEN) Project Manager and maintained in the contract documents.

The weights of inert waste disposed in the landfill must be documented in the monthly waste

management report, provided to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager, and then forwarded to the 78

CEG/CEIEC Solid Waste Program Manager.

e. Construction/Demolition Disposal Site (disposal): Materials will be recycled where practical.

Recyclable metal materials (scrap metal, wire, motors, etc) shall remain the property of the

government and will be recycled through the Robins AFB QRP. To coordinate removal/collection of

scrap metal materials, please contact QRP Manager Casey Lucas at (478) 327-9283, Alternate QRP

Manager Darryl Mercer at (478) 256-7032, or 78 CEG/CEIE Front Office at (478) 327-8104 or (478)

926-9645. Other construction and demolition (C&D) waste, including but not limited to wood,

paper, cardboard can be recycled through the base recycling program or through another

appropriate recycling avenue. Materials that can go in an inert waste landfill may be recycled

according the rules of the State of Georgia, disposed of in an inert landfill, or lastly in the landfill. If

the wastes are being disposed of at a landfill other than the Houston County Landfill, provide the

landfill license to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager. Refer to Section 2.1.4 regarding proper

reporting of disposal and recycling (weights). For construction and demolition wastes, a minimum

of 60 percent by weight of the total project solid waste shall be diverted from the landfill.

f. Solid Waste Disposal Outside of Georgia: No solid waste can be disposed of outside the state of

Georgia without prior written approval of the CO. The contractor shall provide sufficient

information as determined by the CO to allow verification of compliance with the law.

2.1.4 Reporting of Disposal and Recycling: Robins AFB is required to report the amount (weight) of solid waste

and C&D debris which is dispositioned by reuse, recycle, or disposal. Each month, the Contractor shall

record the amounts of reused, recycled, and disposed materials on the Waste Management Report

(attached at the end of the document). Weights shall be cumulative from the start of each month and shall

reflect the total amount of material disposed or recycled during the month. The report should reflect the

method of disposal for the material generated from the project. Weights of material disposed of in a

sanitary or C&D landfill shall be reported based on the weight tickets. Material disposed of in other types of

landfills, which do not have weight scales, may be estimated. The weight of materials reused and or

recycled may be estimated. Use a good faith effort to obtain the most accurate estimate possible. The

Contractor shall also provide the cost to landfill or divert/recycle the C&D debris on the Waste Management

Report. A copy of the Waste Management Report shall be turned in to the 78 CEG/CEN Project Manager by

Contractor must ensure personnel have completed hazardous waste training prior to generating hazardous

waste. All hazardous and universal wastes generated on Robins AFB must be disposed of through 78

CEG/CEIER at building 359. Direct all inquiries to the 78 CEG/CEIER Hazardous Waste Program Manager.

a. Paints, sealants, solvents, rags, or any other hazardous material(s) destined for disposal must be

managed as a hazardous waste unless they have been determined not to be via Safety Data Sheet

(SDS) or laboratory sampling. 78 CEG/CEIER is the only organization authorized to make a hazardous

waste determination.

b. Waste generated from the project itself (e.g. lead-based paint removed from walls, contaminated

soil, sludge from tank cleaning, etc.) must be turned-in to Building 359 for disposal.

c. High-intensity discharge (HID) and fluorescent lamps and tubes or switches containing mercury must

be recycled as universal waste. Labeled containers must be requested through 78 CEG/CEIER at

building 359 prior to job start.

d. Batteries used in emergency and exit lights that contain lead must be recycled. These batteries

must be turned-in to building 359 with no cost for disposal.

e. Disposal Procedures for Hazardous and Universal Waste:


Page 13 of 32

i. Payment for waste disposal will be made through the property/building organizations

Department of Defense Activity Address Code (DODAAC) account. Since all regulated

wastes must be disposed of through DLA-DS, a valid DODAAC is essential to prevent contract

operation delays. This step must be completed prior to requesting waste containers and

labels. Authorization to use the organizations DODAAC also indicates there are sufficient

funds available to pay for waste disposal generated from the project.

ii. Obtain labels and containers prior to job start from building 359 and place the labels on

containers suitable for shipping per Department of Transportation (DOT) guidelines.

Fluorescent lamps/tubes may be placed in the original boxes the tubes came in or in boxes

designed to prevent breakage. Take care not to break any universal waste lamps/tubes. If

any are broken, they must be treated as spilled hazardous waste and turned-in to building

359 immediately.

NOTE: Rolloff boxes to contain waste for large projects must be requested at least 2 weeks in advance.

iii. Accumulate hazardous waste under either the satellite accumulation rules (<55 gallons

total, no time limit, 3 day limit to turn-in full drums) or 90-day rules (no quantity limit, use

up to 90 days in the field, other 40 CFR 262.34(a)(1)(i) requirements apply). Turn-in

containers to building 359 when full or approaching time limit(s).

iv. The contractor is responsible for maintaining regulatory compliance for all regulated waste

under their control. Responsibility for site compliance does not end until the waste is

accepted by 78 CEG/CEIER for disposal.

v. Do not abandon waste at the job site.

2.2.3 Asbestos Containing Materials:

2.2.7 Hazardous Materials (HazMat):

a. HazMat Definition: The term HazMat includes all items (including medical supply items, but

excluding drugs in their finished form and pharmaceuticals in individually-issued items) covered

under Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (or other federal, state, or local)

tracking requirement, the OSHA Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) Standard, and all Class I and

Class II ODS. It does not include munitions or hazardous waste.

b. HazMat Exemptions: The OSHA HAZCOM Standard [29 CFR 1910.1200(b)(6)(ix)] excludes “Any

consumer product or hazardous substance, as those terms are defined in the Consumer Product

Safety Act (15 U.S.C. 2051 et seq.) and Federal Hazardous Substances Act (15 U.S.C. 1261 et seq.)

respectively, where the employer can show that it is used in the workplace for the purpose intended

by the chemical manufacturer or importer of the product, and the use results in a duration and

frequency of exposure which is not greater than the range of exposures that could reasonably be

experienced by consumers when used for the purpose intended.” OSHA further states in a 14 April

2005 interpretation letter that office cleaning products utilized with the same frequency and

duration as that of a normal consumer would fall under the HAZCOM Standard exemption for

consumer products in 29 CFR 1910.1200(b)(6)(ix). Based on the OSHA HAZCOM Standard

exemption, consumer products that are used at Robins AFB in such a way that the duration and

frequency of use are the same as that of a consumer are not required to be included in the

employer’s HAZCOM program. If unsure if the item meets the exemption, contact the HazMat Cell

([email protected]).

c. Lead Acid Batteries: OSHA determined that lead acid batteries are hazardous chemicals because of

their potential chemical exposure risks and physical hazards. As a result, lead acid batteries are

classified as HazMat and do not fall under the article exemption because they have the potential to

leak, spill or break during normal conditions of use.

d. Aerosol Products: All aerosol products are classified as HazMat.



Page 18 of 32

e. The storage and usage of all HazMat must be tracked in the Air Force Standardized Tracking System.

If the contractor does not have access to a government-furnished computer and cannot access the

Air Force Standardized Tracking System, the contractor must report data on the HazMat stored and

used during the performance of the contract at a minimum of weekly to the HazMat Cell and in the

format specified. The Contractor should coordinate the submittal of HazMat data with the HazMat

Cell prior to the beginning of work.

f. Each HazMat container must have an Air Force-approved bar code tracking label affixed, with the

exception of kits. The tracking label shall be generated from the Air Force Standardized Tracking

System and must be for the same manufacturer, same product and same size item. Substitutions

are not allowed. HazMat that has been broken down into smaller “child” containers from the

original “parent” container must have a packaging label affixed in addition to the bar code tracking

label. If the contractor does not have access to a government-furnished computer and cannot

access the Air Force Standardized Tracking System, the contractor must coordinate with the HazMat

Cell the printing of bar code labels for all HazMat items.

g. All HazMat must be authorized prior to use. The material is authorized by stock number for the

using organization or contractor. Authorizations are good for three years. At the end of the three

year period, the user must re-new the authorization. HazMat items cannot be issued in the Air

Force Standardized Tracking System to an employee without an active, valid authorization. The

contractor must submit an Air Force Form 3952 (or the electronic equivalent through the Air Force

Standardized Tracking System) for the authorization to use the HazMat.

h. Contractors must submit a “Hazardous Material Purchase Request for Contractors” form prior to

transporting any hazardous material onto Robins AFB. Contact the HazMat Cell for the “Hazardous

Material Purchase Request for Contractors” form, [email protected]. This form must be

completed for all hazardous materials purchased by contractors for use on Robins AFB and approval

must be granted prior to transportation onto Robins AFB. The purpose of this form is to ensure

compliance with AFI 32-7086 and OSHA HAZCOM, ensuring that hazardous materials are approved

for use prior to transportation onto Robins AFB and a current SDS is available in the Air Force

Standardized Tracking System. Once approval is given, the contractor is permitted to transport

hazardous materials onto Robins AFB. The contractor must track the hazardous materials in the Air

Force Standardized Tracking System.

i. Contractors must maintain compliance with the Robins AFB Hazardous Material Management Plan

and AFI 32-7086. A copy of the plan can be obtained by contacting the HazMat Cell.

j. Contractors should contact the HazMat Cell ([email protected] ) with specific HazMat

questions.

considered to be rare. The Contractor shall not clear vegetation on project sites without prior approval from

78 CEG/CEIEC. Rare wildlife species such as Bald Eagles and Wood Storks are occasionally seen on base. The

Contractor shall not harm wildlife of any kind. Most wildlife species found on base are protected by law,

including birds, bats, land turtles, non-venomous snakes, and game species such as deer. If the Contractor

encounters problems with wildlife, notify the CO. The CO shall contact the 78 CEG/CEIEC Natural Resources

Program Manager to determine the best solution for each problem. The CO will ensure that the

Contractors’ actions do not injure rare species and/or their habitats.

2.7 WETLANDS

2.7.1 General: Wetlands delineation has been completed on base and wetland boundaries are currently

identified with markers. However, markers can, in some instances, be missing or not readily visible, and

wetlands often do not contain water throughout the year, so they may not be apparent. When in doubt,

verify that the site in question is or is not a wetland by contacting 78 CEG/CEIEC. These areas shall not be

filled, dredged, or disturbed in any way. Comply with water and land protection sections outlined in this

adverse impacts to the building or archaeological site. The Contractor shall contact 78 CEG/CEIEC

Cultural Resources Program Manager at the beginning of the project prior to beginning any work.

b. Discoveries: When cultural resources are inadvertently discovered during construction, project

personnel are directed to avoid the site of discovery and immediately contact the 78 CEG/CEIEC

Cultural Resources Program Manager. All work in the area of discovery must stop until it can be

investigated. 78 CEG/CEIE will send a qualified representative to the site and the resource will need

to be recorded and evaluated and the effects mitigated as necessary.

2.9.2 Archaeological Finds: All archaeological finds are the property of Robins AFB. Do not remove or disturb

finds without the CO's written authorization. Archaeological Finds are artifacts, ecofacts, or modifications to

the landscape that are associated with past human activity and are a minimum of 50 years old.

2.10 PROTECTION OF WATER AND LAND RESOURCES

2.10.1 General: The Contractor shall not take any action that will adversely affect the existing Water Quality

Standards classification of any streams, rivers, lakes, wetlands, or reservoirs within or adjacent to the project

site or which would otherwise contribute to the pollution of these water resources. No fuel, oils,

bituminous, calcium chloride, acids, construction waste, or otherwise harmful materials shall be permitted

to enter these water resources. Land resources shall be preserved in their present condition or restored to a

condition that appears natural and does not detract from the appearance of the surrounding area. If

restoration is to be accomplished, the Contractor shall submit an appropriate restoration plan and receive

base approval from 78 CEG/CEIE on the proposed mitigation procedures.

Agency, provided that the discharger is in full compliance with all requirements of the permit,

waiver, or order and other applicable laws and regulations, and provided that written approval has

been granted for any discharge to the storm drain system.

2.10.5 Prohibition of Illicit Connections:

a. The construction, use, maintenance or continued existence of illicit connections to the storm drain

system is prohibited.

b. This prohibition expressly includes, without limitation, illicit connections made in the past,

regardless of whether the connection was permissible under law or practices applicable or

prevailing at the time of connection.

c. The Contractor is considered to be in violation of this requirement if the Contractor connects a line

conveying non-stormwater discharges to the stormwater conveyance system, or allows such a

connection to continue.

2.10.6 Spills: Prevent the spill of chemicals, fuels, oils, grease, bituminous materials, waste washings, herbicides,

cement drainage, or any other hazardous materials, including broken fluorescent or HID lamps and tubes.

Immediately report all spills to the Base Fire Department, 778 CES/CEX, and emergency number 911. Ensure

1.2 GOVERNMENT POLICY

Government policy is to apply sound environmental principles in the design, construction and use of

facilities. As part of the implementation of that policy the Contractor shall: (1) practice efficient

waste management when sizing, cutting, and installing products and materials and (2) use all

reasonable means to divert construction and demolition waste from landfills and incinerators and to

facilitate their recycling or reuse. A minimum of 75 percent by weight of total project solid waste

shall be diverted from the landfill.

1.3 MANAGEMENT

Develop and implement a waste management program in accordance with ASTM E 1609 and as

specified. Take a pro-active, responsible role in the management of construction and demolition

waste and require all subcontractors, vendors, and suppliers to participate in the effort. The

Environmental Manager, as specified in Section 01 35 40.00 20 Environmental Management, shall be

responsible for instructing workers and overseeing and documenting results of the Waste

Management Plan for the project. Construction and demolition waste includes products of demolition

or removal, excess or unusable construction materials, packaging materials for construction products,

and other materials generated during the construction process but not incorporated into the work. In

the management of waste consideration shall be given to the availability of viable markets, the

condition of the material, the ability to provide the material in suitable condition and in a quantity

acceptable to available markets, and time constraints imposed by internal project completion

mandates. The Contractor is responsible for implementation of any special programs involving

rebates or similar incentives related to recycling of waste. Revenues or other savings obtained for

salvage, or recycling accrue to the Contractor. Appropriately permit firms and facilities used for

recycling, reuse, and disposal for the intended use to the extent required by federal, state, and local
