Pollution Prevention/Hazardous Waste Minimization
The Contractor will actively pursue minimizing the use of hazardous
materials and the generation of hazardous waste while on-base. The
Hazardous Waste Management Section of the Environmental Protection Plan
will include the Contractor's procedures for pollution prevention/
hazardous waste minimization. For preparing this part of the plan, the
Contractor may consult the activity Environmental Office for suggestions
and to obtain a copy of the installation's pollution prevention/hazardous
waste minimization plan for reference material. If no written plan exists,
the Contractor may obtain information by contacting the Contracting
Officer. The Contractor will describe the types of the hazardous materials
expected to be used in the construction when requesting information.
3.5.3
Hazardous Material Control
The Contractor will include hazardous material control procedures in the
Safety Plan. The procedures will address and ensure the proper handling of
hazardous materials, including the appropriate transportation requirements.
The Contractor will submit a MSDS and estimated quantities to be used for
each hazardous material to the Contracting Officer prior to bringing the
material on base. Typical materials requiring MSDS and quantity reporting
include, but are not limited to, oil and latex based painting and caulking
products, solvents, adhesives, aerosol, and petroleum products. At the end
of the project, the Contractor will provide the Contracting Officer with
the maximum quantity of each material that was present at the site at any
one time, the dates the material was present, the amount of each material
that was used during the project, and how the material was used. The
Contractor will also ensure that hazardous materials are utilized in a
manner that will minimize the amount of hazardous waste that is generated.
The Contractor will ensure that all containers of hazardous materials have
NFPA labels or their equivalent. Copies of the MSDS for hazardous
materials will be kept on site at all times and provided to the Contracting
Officer at the end of the project. The Contractor will certify that all
