Pre-abatement sampling for non-affected adjacent compartments is for the purpose of establishing baseline of initial condition. 2. Post-abatement sampling for non-affected adjacent compartments is for verifying whether or not contamination has occurred as a result of improper protective measures. 4.0 Abatement particulars. Surface preservation: The Contractor shall abate all areas if noted in the table above, of the cutter as necessary to complete tasks. SFLC Std Spec 6310 shall be used for surface preparations and coating systems. Separate contaminated areas from other areas. Do not permit non-essential personnel in the work area. Prevent dust from migrating to other areas, as follows - o Seal doors, hatches, and all other openings between the work area and other areas with an airtight barrier, such as fire-rated polyethylene; seal both sides (inside the construction area, and inside the adjacent area) to provide a secondary dust barrier and prevent the doors and windows from being used (post alternative emergency exits, if applicable). - o Ensure that the work area remain under negative pressure in relation to adjacent areas. NOTE Negative pressure means that more air is exhausted from the area than is supplied so that lead dust and asbestos particles are contained within the work area, and do not contaminate adjacent non-affected compartments. Exhaust air must be filtered with a suitable HEPA filter. Take, at a minimum, the following measures, to protect de-contamination workers: - o Use a HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) vacuum - never use a conventional vacuum. A HEPA vacuum removes 99.97% of particles that are less than 0.3 microns in size. - o Never use compressed air; never dry sweep. - o Workers must wear a respirator which is approved by NIOSH and has N100, P100 or R100 filters (the cartridges are usually purple); respirators must be fit-tested to insure proper seal, and employees must be medically screened and trained prior to wearing a respirator (see the OSHA Respirator Standard 29 CFR 1910.134 - covers respiratory protection for shipyard employment. - o Workers must wear full-body protective clothing, head covering and shoes (or shoe covers). - o Eating, drinking and smoking are prohibited in work areas. - o Workers must wash hands and face before eating, drinking or smoking. - o Workers must not leave the work area without having gone through a proper decontamination process, to prevent spread of lead dust to un-affected areas. - o Workers must remove work clothes and shoes before leaving the work area, and seal work clothes in plastic. - o Workers must shower and wash hair as soon as possible after leaving the work area. - o Non-disposable work clothes must be washed separately from other clothes. 4.2.1 Remove protective covers, to allow for performance of lead dust cleaning and wipe/paint sampling tasks, as specified in 3.3.2.1 (Lead dust clean-up) and 3.3.2.2.1.2 (Additional wipe Clearance sampling), respectively. Reinstall protective covers, after said tasks have been completed. 4.2.1.2 Remove and dispose of all protective covers, upon completion of work. 4.2.2 Be aware that surfaces to be abated also include all structural members associated with/adjacent to designated surfaces, in addition to lighting fixtures, pipe runs, and junction boxes. NOTES 1. SFLC Std Spec 0000, Appendix A applies to availabilities performed at contractor operated (non-USCG) facilities; Appendix B pertains to work accomplished at USCG facilities. 2. Abatement specific requirements in Appendix A or B of SFLC Std Spec 0000 include, but are not limited to the following: + Additional protective measures. + HAZMAT removal/surface preparation. + Post-surface preparation clearance sampling and inspection. + Lead dust clean-up. + Waste disposal. 4.3 Post-abatement clearance, inspection, and cleaning - order of performance. After completion of surface preparation and removal of generated debris, perform the below-specified tasks, in the specific order provided. 4.3.1 Substrate inspection. Perform visual inspection, accompanied by the CG Inspector, of all prepared surfaces. Submit a CFR. 4.3.2 Lead dust cleaning and wipe sampling. After satisfactory results of visual inspection, perform all tasks associated with lead dust cleaning and wipe sampling. Step 1 - Debris Removal: Remove all gross debris, paint chips, etc. using either a vacuum with a HEPA filter and picking up chips or large pieces of contaminated debris by hand. Step 2 - Vacuum Cleaning: Using a suitable HEPA vacuum, clean all affected surfaces, following the following guidelines: - o Begin cleaning with high areas first - with overhead surfaces and bulkheads working downward. - o Vacuum all surfaces in the compartment. - o Work in the direction furthest from the entry door toward it. Step 3 - wet cleaning: Following thorough HEPA vacuuming, wash all surfaces with any suitable cleaning detergent following the same cleaning pattern (high to low/ furthest from and toward entrance). Change the cleaning solution as it becomes dirty. Rinse all areas with a fresh cloth/mop. Do not reuse contaminated mops or cloths. Step 4 - Vacuum Cleaning: Perform a HEPA vacuum again as specified in "Step 2". Step 5 - Waste Disposal: Properly dispose of contaminated materials, in accordance with all applicable Federal, state, and local regulations. For hazardous waste the contractor will provide lab results and Government employee from the Environmental Branch MUST sign the HW Manifest copies (original and final) and Land Disposal Restriction (LDR) copies must be provided to Environmental Branch. For non hazardous waste the contractor will provide lab results and Government employee must sign the BOL/Manifest copies (original and final) must be provided to Environmental Branch. With the proposal the contractor shall provide to the Contracting Officer documentation that they have an agreement with an approved Hazardous and non hazardous disposal site. NOTES 1. Work Smart, and Work Clean. DO NOT GENERATE DUSTS. It is easier to effectively clean an area when dusts are not being generated to resettle on previously cleaned areas! Worker exposures may be high during wet sweeping. 2 A wet/dry HEPA unit is ideal for working with hazardous dust clean up. 3. Lead-contaminated objects that are porous or materials that may suffer damage from water may not be able to be sufficiently decontaminated by these methods and should be discarded. 4.3.2.1 Visual inspection. Conduct a visual inspection, in the presence of the Coast Guard Inspector, to ensure that none of the following is present. Visible coatings on any part of the substrate, including pitted areas. Dust. Cleaning material haze. 4.3.2.2 Clearance sampling. Upon acceptance of the visual inspection results by the COR, do the following: 4.3.2.2.1 Wipe sampling - lead dust. Conduct wipe sampling clearance testing, in accordance with ASTM 6966, as designated by the Coast Guard Inspector, in ten (10) total locations within the contained abatement area, but not on the bulkhead, to ensure that there exist no lead dust residues in excess of the below-listed concentrations, as specified below. Four (4) of the ten locations shall be 1ft x 1ft areas each along the deck fwd of the bulkhead and the remaining six (6) shall be on horizontal surfaces of a 4in x 4in area each. Submit a CFR with sample results. If any results are higher than the below-listed concentrations following abatement efforts, contractor shall clean affected areas and re-test until lead concentrations are lower than specified below. 40 micrograms/square foot (mcg/ft 2) - for berthing and/or food preparation areas. 200 micrograms/square foot (mcg/ft 2) -for all other areas. 4.3.2.2.1.1 Laboratory analysis. Ensure that lead dust samples are analyzed by a laboratory certified by the National Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (NLLAP) or the American Industrial Hygiene Association. Provide proof with the proposal that the Contractor has an agreement or the ability to use a certified laboratory for lead dust and paint samples. NOTE For a listing of certified laboratories, go to www.aiha.org. 4.3.2.2 1.2 Additional wipe clearance testing. Be aware that the Coast Guard reserves the right to coordinate additional wipe clearance testing, at no cost to the Contractor, to verify the sample results.
