4 ASBESTOS ABATEMENT WORK PROCEDURES
Full containment controls are required for the removal of the ACM in the residence. The ACM
located in the art studio and the chicken coop may be removed utilizing non-friable component
removal techniques. The following procedures must be adhered to at a minimum, but all work is to
be performed according to Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) -
Regulation Number 8 (Regulation 8) dated March 2005 and all other applicable laws and
regulations:
A. Put in place a fully operational decontamination unit contiguous with the work area,
place and start a sufficient number of high efficiency particulate air (HEPA)
equipped negative air machines (NAMs) to ventilate the building, pre-clean and then
construct and place critical barriers, impart a negative pressure differential between
the work area and all surrounding areas. HEPA exhaust will be to the outside of the
buildings at all times.
B. All surfaces within the work area shall be thoroughly HEPA vacuumed and wet-
wiped so that no visible dust or debris remains. All moveable objects must be
removed from work area prior to containment construction by the Contractor.
C. Proceed with containment construction and establish a negative pressure differential
of at least -0.030 inches of water. The containment must stand for a minimum of 2
hours with -0.030 inches of water negative pressure prior to the pre-abatement
inspection being performed. After passing a pre-abatement visual inspection, gross
removal and final cleaning can commence. All materials will be removed by hand
using wet methods.
Final air clearance samples will utilize phase contrast microscopy (PCM) as the analytical
technique. All clearance air monitoring will be conducted according to specifications outlined in
Regulation 8.
The staging area for equipment and personnel will be at the closest entrance to the work area or an
area determined by the Owner. Security for any equipment and/or vehicles left onsite is the
responsibility of the Contractor. The Owner will not be responsible for theft or vandalism of
Contractor’s equipment left onsite. The Contractor will provide a lock for the gate and it will be
placed inline with other locks to facilitate access by the Owner/Owners Representative after work
hours.
Project hours will be 7:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., Monday-Friday. If any work is to be completed
outside these work hours, it must be approved in writing prior to being initiated and the Contractor
shall bear the costs incurred by Owner/Owners representative as result of the additional labor of
Owner/Owners representative.

5 SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
Electrical service is not available at the site. The Contractor is responsible for providing a
portable generator capable of delivering continuous electrical service. It is the Contractors
responsibility to insure the continuous operation of the generator to provide electrical service to
the NAMs for the duration of the project.
Potable water is not available at the site. It is necessary that the Contractor provide all water for
the removal process as well as potable water for the decontamination unit.
A sanitary sewer service is not available for the discharge of filtered waste water. It is required
that all filtered waste water be collected and discharged into a sanitary sewer at another location
or disposed of properly.
The drywall system in the residence contains 0.05% to 0.1% chrysotile asbestos. All of the
drywall system is to be removed in conjunction with the removal of the ACM.
It is assumed that texture overspray is present beneath carpet, doors, trim, windows, and other
finishes. This material is to be removed and the surfaces cleaned in order to pass a final visual
inspection. Any contaminated finish materials must be disposed of as ACM.
In accordance with Regulation 8, this project will require a Project Design. The Contractor is
responsible to provide a Project Design drafted by a Certified Project Designer. This document
does not fulfill all the requirements for a Project Design. However this document may be used in
part or whole to supplement the Project Design.
Access to the site is difficult, especially during precipitation and for large vehicles. In addition
there is a limited amount of space available for staging of equipment, materials, and waste
containers. A “direct load out” for waste may not be possible without extensive site work.
The roof of the chicken coop is extremely poor condition and may not be accessible by normal
methods. There is no vehicle access to the chicken coop. All materials, equipment, and waste
will need to be moved to and from this area by hand.
A large amount of trash and discarded materials was left in the residence by the previous owner.
These materials may be removed and staged outside of the structure by the Contractor or
disposed of prior to abatement activities. Any materials staged outside must be containerized to
prevent the wind from blowing these materials around the site or onto neighboring properties.
Upon project completion all structures must be secured by the Contractor (boarding up windows,
doors, etc.) to the same or better condition that existed prior to the project.

Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
6 INSPECTIONS BY OWNER/OWNERS REPRESENTATIVE
A. When required by Owner/Owners representative, the Contractor shall take down or
uncover portions of the finished work. If the work thus exposed is satisfactory to
Owner/Owners representative, the cost of exposing and restoring the same shall be
at the expense of Owner/Owners representative, but, if in the opinion of
Owner/Owners representative, the work is unsatisfactory, all cost and expenses of
exposing, removing, re-testing, replacing, and restoring shall be borne by the
Contractor.
B. Any omission or failure on the part of Owner/Owners representative to
disapprove or reject any inferior or defective work or material shall not be
construed to be an acceptance of any such work or materials. The Contractor
shall remove at its own expense any defective work or material rejected by
Owner/Owners representative and shall rebuild or replace the same without extra
charge to Owner/Owners representative. All re-testing of an area for clearance
shall be at the Contractor's expense.
C. All inspections shall take place during normal working hours. If inspections
occur outside/past normal working hours, the Contractor shall bear the costs
incurred by Owner/Owners representative as result of the additional labor of
Owner/Owners representative.
D. Where the Owner/Owners representative has an onsite representative, the
Contractor shall give the Owner/Owners representative two hours advance notice
of an impending inspection. Where the Owner/Owners representative does not
have an onsite representative present, then a twenty-four hour advance notice of
impending inspection is required. Contractor shall request in writing required
Owner/Owners representative inspections including the time and date of the
requested inspection.
E. If the visual inspection detects items to be corrected the area will be termed
"failed" and will need to have corrective action taken by the Contractor.
F. The Contractor must allow for a two hour notice period before the re-inspection
of the failed area may begin (this may be waived by Owner/Owners
representative). Items of work requiring inspection sign-off by Owner/Owners
representative are:
1. Pre-Abatement (Area Preparation and Containment) Inspection-
Removal of asbestos and necessary demolition shall not take place
until Owner/Owners representative has inspected area preparation
work and given approval.
2. Final Visual Inspection - The area shall not be encapsulated or
locked down until Owner/Owners representative has inspected and
3/31/2006 COFC Ahnstedt Work Plan.doc 5
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
given approval of the final cleaning and area decontamination.
The containment must be completely dry, during the inspection
with no water droplets, remains or saturation on polyethylene
sheeting or other surfaces in the containment.
G. The inspections are listed in the applicable above paragraphs. A punch list of
items to be corrected resulting from the "failed" inspection, will be prepared
jointly by the Contractor and Owner/Owners representative prior to final
acceptance of the project by the Owner/Owners representative. Inspections shall
in no way be construed as final or partial acceptance by Owner/Owners
representative. Any failure or omission of the Owner/Owners representative to
notify the Contractor of defective work shall not excuse Contractor for liability
for such defective work.
H. It will be necessary that the Contractor successfully confine fiber release to the
designated work area and within the enclosure. Owner/Owners representative
obligations are solely to Owner/Owners representative. In meeting such
obligations Owner/Owners representative may increase the burdens and expense
of the Contractor, his sub-contractors or employees, or the surety of them.
Nothing in the performance of Owner/Owners representative services in
connection with this project implies the undertaking for the benefit of, or which
may be enforced by, the Contractor, his sub-contractors, or employees, or the
surety of any of them. It is not the function of Owner/Owners representative to
specify all of the means by which the Contractor will attain the intended results,
nor to state all of the environmental conditions that must be present for the safety
of workers who are employed to produce the intended results, or for the safety of
others during construction. The Contractor shall establish means and
environmental conditions that meet all applicable laws and regulations.
I. The Contractor is required to remove all specified ACM. Any ACM, debris or
contaminated materials, missed, not accessed or abated thoroughly, and later
discovered by the Owner/Owners representative, will be corrected by the
Contractor at no cost to the Owner/Owners representative.
J. The Owner/Owners representative will provide final visual inspection for the
work area and Work Area Clearance sampling for the work area. Samples
exceeding 0.010 fibers per cubic centimeter (f/cc) will be deemed to have failed,
and must be re-cleaned and re-tested. Contractor may, on the approval of the
Owner/Owners representative, have the work area re-sampled and analyzed by
Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) if it will not interfere with the project
schedule. Cost for TEM analysis will be the responsibility of the Contractor.
K. The Contractor may be charged for any re-inspections and/or re-sampling of the
work areas at the discretion of the Owner.
3/31/2006 COFC Ahnstedt Work Plan.doc 6
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
7 MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE ASBESTOS LEVEL (MAAL)
Outside Work Area: If any air sample taken outside of the work area exceeds the CDPHE
maximum allowable asbestos level (MAAL), immediately and automatically stop all work
except corrective action. The Owner/Owners representative will determine the source of the
high reading and so notify the Contractor in writing.
A. Maximum Allowable Asbestos Level
1. Air monitoring shall be conducted during normal occupancy and
samples shall not be collected in an aggressive manner.
2. Where PCM is used as the method of analysis the standard is 0.010 f/cc
of air which is equivalent to 10,000 fibers per cubic meter of air (f/m3).
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)
7400 Method shall be used to analyze samples. The number of samples
to be taken shall be determined by the air monitoring specialist. Where
TEM is used as the method of analysis, the standard is 70 structures per
square millimeter (s/mm2). TEM analysis shall be conducted pursuant
to the protocol in 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 763,
Appendix A to Subpart E.
3. All air monitoring samples collected for MAAL and clearance purposes
shall be performed by the Owners representative who is independent of
the general abatement contractor to avoid possible conflict of interest.
B. In the event that airborne fiber levels outside a work area exceed the MAAL when
analyzed by Phase Contract Microscopy (PCM) (and verified by TEM), the
Contractor shall comply with CDPHE requirements for Major Asbestos Spills
(Regulation 8 Section III.T.1). If the high reading was the result of a failure of work
area isolation measures initiate the following actions:
1. Immediately erect critical barriers to isolate the affected area from the
balance of the building and establish a negative pressure differential.
Erect critical barriers at the next existing structural isolation of the
involved space (e.g. ceiling, floor, and wall).
2. Decontaminate the affected area.
3. Require that respiratory protection be worn in affected area until area is
cleared for re-occupancy.
4. Leave critical barriers in place until completion of work and insure that
the operation of the pressure differential system in the area results in a
flow of air from the balance of the building into the affected area.
3/31/2006 COFC Ahnstedt Work Plan.doc 7
Environmental Scientists and Engineers, LLC
5. If the exit from the clean room of the personnel decontamination unit
enters the affected area, establish a decontamination facility consisting
of a shower room and change room at entry point to affected area.
6. After certification of visual inspection in the area, final clearance air
samples will be taken within the area.
C. In the event that areas beyond the work area become contaminated with asbestos,
or asbestos-containing dust/debris, and/or visible emissions from the work area,
the Contractor shall be responsible for all costs associated with cleaning and
subsequent testing (visual inspection, air sampling, and bulk analysis) of these
areas.
D. If the high reading was the result of other causes, Contractor shall initiate
corrective action as required by the Owner.
Effect on Contract Sum: Complete corrective work with no change in the contract sum if high
airborne fiber counts were caused by Contractors activities. The contract sum and schedule will
be adjusted for additional work caused by high airborne fiber counts beyond the Contractors
control. Contractor is responsible for all costs associated with TEM verification where PCM
samples exceed 0.010 f/cc, and any subsequent cleaning and additional sampling costs regardless
of TEM sample results.
8 SUBMITTALS
Plan of Action
Prior to the start of work, the Contractor shall prepare a brief plan of the procedures proposed for
use in complying with the requirements of this work plan and all applicable regulations. Include
