P -- SALVAGE BUILDINGS AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT AND COMPONENTS DUE 062495. Contact Bernard L. Ayers, Contracting Officer, 509/376-8601. The U.S. Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office (RL), will be requesting expressions of interest from the salvage industry. The scope of this project is to salvage buildings and associated equipment and components located throughout the Hanford Site. The buildings are wood, steel, and/or concrete structures and contain some hazardous materials, consisting mostly of asbestos bearing materials and light ballasts contaminated with PCB. All buildings will be radiologically exempt facilities. Prior to the beginning of private contractor work activities, all buildings will have had utilities isolated and non-structural hazardous materials removed (such as solvents, containerized products, etc.). Those expressing interest in salvaging Hanford facilities will be provided with facility descriptions (size, location, construction materials) and a general list of ancillary components and equipment remaining in the facility for salvage. Contractors will be invited to the Hanford Site to inspect all facilities offered for salvage. The following is a general list of activities to be performed by the building salvage contractor: Note: The salvage contractor shall have rights to all building materials and equipment remaining in each facility. Disposal and material handling requirements will not apply to those items retained by the contractor. 1. Asbestos removal: Comply with Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 40 - Protection of Environment, Part 763 - Asbestos. Comply with Washington Administrative Code (WAC) Title 296 - Department of Labor and Industries Chapter 296-62 - Occ. Remove asbestos insulated pipes. Remove exterior transite siding. Remove asbestos containing floor tiles. Remove incidental asbestos materials from building (interior transite panels, asbestos insulated tanks, etc.). Contractor shall package asbestos waste according to Hanford Site requirements and transport to approved waste disposal facility. The contractor will be supplied with a Good Faith Inspection for each building, identifying all known asbestos materials. 2. Hazardous material removal: All fluorescent light fixtures shall be inspected for PCB containing ballasts. All PCB (or suspect PCB) containing ballasts shall be removed and packaged according to Hanford Site requirements and transported to the hazardous waste staging area. 2. Hazardous material removal (cont'd): All switches, thermostats, etc., shall be inspected for mercury. All mercury shall be removed and packaged according to Hanford Site requirements and transported to the hazardous waste staging area. All painted materials shall be assumed to contain lead-based paint until proven otherwise. All other incidental hazardous materials (to be identified prior to awarding the contract) shall be removed and packaged according to Hanford Site requirements and transported to the hazardous waste staging area. 3. Building salvage: Remove all building components and equipment (various process machinery, HVAC systems, electrical equipment). Completely dismantle entire building. Note: Some equipment left in the facility may contain hazardous material (oils, cutting fluid, etc.). If this equipment is not reclaimed by the salvage contractor and is slated for disposal, the hazardous waste contractor shall be required to remove and package the waste according to the above criteria prior to removing the equipment for disposal. 4. Restore site: Remove building slab, foundation, and footings. Remove all slabs, sidewalks, loading docks, stairs, etc. All earthen mounds remaining under facilities shall be removed and used as fill for foundation voids under office areas. The site shall be graded smooth to match the surrounding terrain. All foundation voids shall be filled using fill material available within the Hanford Site and graded to match the surrounding terrain. Sufficient compaction will be obtained by driving over the site with heavy equipment during site restoration. Requirements and Submittals: All work shall be performed in accordance with all applicable Federal, state, and local requirements, including specific Hanford Site requirements (to be supplied). Contractors shall be required to submit: Schedule of activities. Staffing and equipment requirements. General Site Safety and Health Plan. General work plan, including Job Hazard Analysis for specific activities and Fall Protection Plan(s) as required. Proof of required certifications (Washington State Asbestos Worker, Hazardous Waste Certification, etc.).
