supplement U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)
Safety and Health Requirements Manual, EM 385-1-1,
and clarify safety concerns for high-risk
construction activities. All contracts that include
FAR clause 52.236-13 require the Contractor to
prepare and execute a written Accident Prevention
Plan (APP) in accordance with Appendix A of EM
385-1-1 to include Activity Hazard Analyses (AHAs).
Some contracts, based upon the work to be performed
(environmental restoration, asbestos abatement or
lead hazard control), require additional special
safety and health plans to be made part of and
appended to the APP. Pertinent UFGS contract
sections include UFGS Section 01351 SAFETY, HEALTH,
AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE (HTRW/UST) for environmental
restoration project; UFGS Section 13280A(Army), or
13281N(Navy), for asbestos abatement; and, UFGS
Section 13281A(Army), or 13282N(Navy), for lead
hazard control activities. For Navy environmental
restoration contracts, an APP is required with the
overall contract and a site specific Health and
Safety Plan is required for each task order (contact
the EFD/EFA Safety Manager for applicability).
In addition, when any work under a service, supply
or research and development contract is to be
performed on Government-owned, leased or controlled
real property, or on board Government-owned, leased
or controlled plant or equipment, a determination
must be made whether to use FAR clause 52.236-13,
and/or its Alternate I, and this specification. The
need for the use of FAR clause 52.236-13, and/or its
Alternate I, and this specification must be
determined from the hazards presented by the
supplies to be delivered, the services to be
provided or the research and development to be
performed. The Contracting Officer in consultation
with the technical proponent and safety and health
personnel will make the determination.
Many states and municipalities have more stringent
or additional requirements and this section should
be modified as required to meet local conditions and
regulations.
