EXECUTION
[3.1
REMOVAL OF COATINGS CONTAINING HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Include NFGS 13283 in any project
specification that requires removal or disturbance
of coating containing hazardous materials. Include
a contractor qualification requirement similar to
the article entitled "Qualifications of Coating
Contractors" in Part 1 of this Section, except that
the contractor shall be qualified to SSPC QP-2. The
removal of coatings containing hazardous materials
and application of new coating system can be
accomplished in a continuous operation if the
contractor provides appropriate coordination of
removal, cleaning, and coating application. It is
specified as two separate operations to allow
separate contractors to accomplish different phases
of project. With the use of SSPC QP-1 and QP-2
requirements in contracts, the same contractor will
generally be accomplishing both phases of work, and
will probably want to perform both phases as a
single operation so as not to have to prepare
surface twice. To accomplish the coating removal
and recoating in a continuous operation, the
contractors plan must be scrutinized for appropriate
controls on the removal process, and on the surface
preparation/coating application process. Delete
this paragraph if no paint containing hazardous
material is to be removed.
**************************************************************************
during surface preparation, including removal, shall be handled in
accordance with Section 13283N REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL OF LEAD CONTAINING
PAINT.
