For this project, abatement means the removal from the building of all asbestos-containing materials in areas identified by the Owner. Air Monitoring - the process of measuring the fiber content of a specific volume of air in a stated period of time. Air Monitoring Technician - worker who is employed by the Owner's Representative and has been properly trained and certified by OSHA to conduct air monitoring and sample analysis for asbestos abatement activities. Airlock - a system for permitting ingress or egress without permitting air movement between a contaminated area and an uncontaminated area, typically consisting of two curtained doorways at least 3 feet apart. ACM Asbestos-Containing Materials Authorized Visitor - the Building Owner, the Building Owner's Representative, the Architect/Engineer, or a representative of any regulatory of other agency having jurisdiction over the project. Clean Room - an uncontaminated area or room which is part of the worker decontamination enclosure system, with provision for storage of worker's street clothes and protective equipment. ASBESTOS ABATEMENT

12 Contractor Asbestos Abatement Contractor which is certified in Kentucky to remove asbestos. Curtained Doorway - device to allow ingress or egress from one room to another while permitting minimal air movement between the rooms, typically constructed by placing two overlapping sheets of polyethylene over an existing or temporarily framed doorway, securing each along the top of the doorway, securing the vertical edge of one sheet along one vertical side of the doorway, and securing one sheet along the opposite side of the doorway. Two curtained doorways spaced a minimum of 3 feet (1 meter) apart form an airlock. Decontamination Enclosure System - a series of connected rooms, with curtained doorways between any two adjacent rooms, for the decontamination of workers or of materials and equipment. A decontamination enclosure system always contains at least one airlock. Encapsulant (Sealant) - a liquid material which can be applied to asbestos-containing materials and which controls the possible release of asbestos fibers from the material either by creating a membrane over the surface (bridging encapsulant) or by penetrating into the material and binding its components together (penetrating encapsulant). Equipment Decontamination Enclosure System - a decontamination enclosure system for materials and equipment, typically consisting of a designated section of the work area, a washroom, a holding area, and an uncontaminated area. Equipment Room - a contaminated area or room which is part of the worker decontamination enclosure system, with provisions for storage of contaminated clothing and equipment. Fixed Object - a unit of equipment or furniture in the work area which cannot be removed from the work area. HEPA Filter - a high efficiency particulate absolute (HEPA) filter capable of trapping and retaining 99.97% of asbestos fibers greater than 0.3 micron in length. HEPA Vacuum Equipment - high efficiency particulate absolute filtered vacuuming equipment with a filter system capable of collecting and retaining asbestos fibers. Filters should be 99.97% efficient for retaining fiber greater than 0.3 micron in length. NIOSH - National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. Negative Air Pressure Equipment - a local exhaust system capable of maintaining a constant, low velocity air flow into the Decontamination Enclosure Systems and Work Area from adjacent unsealed areas and exhausting that air outside the Decontamination Enclosure. Owner McCracken County Fiscal Court. Owner's Representative - Summit Environmental Services, Inc. ASBESTOS ABATEMENT

13 Removal - all herein specified procedures necessary to strip all asbestos-containing materials from the designated areas and to dispose of these materials at an acceptable site in an acceptable and legal manner. Shower Room - a room between the clean room and the equipment room in the worker decontamination enclosure system, with hot and cold or warm running water and suitably arranged for complete showering during decontamination. The shower room comprises an airlock between contaminated and clean areas. Surfactant - a chemical wetting agent added to water to improve penetration, thus reducing the quantity of water required for a given operation or area. Thermal System Insulation - material applied to pipes, fittings, boilers, breeching, tanks, ducts, or other interior structural components to prevent heat loss or gain, or water condensation, or for other purposes. Washroom - a room between the work area and the holding area in the equipment decontamination enclosure system. The washroom comprises an airlock. Wet Cleaning - the process of eliminating asbestos contamination from surfaces and objects by using cloths, mops, or other cleaning tools which have been dampened with water, and by afterwards disposing of these cleaning tools as asbestos-contaminated waste. Worker Decontamination Enclosure System - a decontamination enclosure for workers, typically consisting of a clean room, shower room, and equipment room. 2.3 CODES AND REGULATIONS General Applicability of Codes, Regulations and Standards: Except to the extent that more explicit or more stringent requirements are written directly into the contract documents, all applicable codes, regulations, and standards have the same force and effect (and are made a part of the contract documents by reference) as if copied directly into the contract documents, or as if published copies are bound herewith.

Comply with OSHA requirements for temporary lighting. Preclean movable objects within the proposed work areas using High Efficiency Particulate Absolute (HEPA) Vacuum equipment and/or wet cleaning methods as appropriate. Remove such objects from work areas to a temporary location as designated by the Owner. Protection of and accounting for the stored materials is the sole responsibility of the Contractor. Preclean fixed objects within the proposed work areas, using High Efficiency Particulate Absolute (HEPA) vacuum equipment and/or wet cleaning methods as appropriate, and enclosure with minimum 6 mil. polyethylene sealed with tape.

Do not use methods that raise dust, such as dry sweeping or vacuuming with equipment not equipped with HEPA filters SEQUENCE OF WORK: GENERAL: Carry out work of this section sequentially. Complete each activity before proceeding to the next. Work Area: Is the location where asbestos-abatement work occurs. It is a variable of the extent of work of the contract. It may be a portion of a room, a single room, or a complex of rooms. A "work area" is considered contaminated during the work, and must be isolated from the balance of the building, and decontaminated at the completion of the asbestos-control work. Completely Isolate the work area from other parts of the building so as to prevent asbestos-containing dust or debris from passing beyond the isolated area. Should the area beyond the work area(s) become contaminated with asbestos-containing dust or debris as a consequence of the work, clean those areas in accordance with recognized procedures. All such required cleaning or decontamination shall be at no additional cost to Owner. ASBESTOS ABATEMENT

22 3.2.3 CONTROL ACCESS: Provide Warning Signs at each visual and physical barrier reading as follows: DANGER ASBESTOS AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY CANCER AND LUNG DISEASE HAZARD RESPIRATORS AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING ARE REQUIRED IN THIS AREA Provide and display any other caution signs required in accordance with Federal Regulations or State and Local Regulations.
