All asbestos materials and miscellaneous contaminated debris shall be properly sealed <br />and protected, and the loadout vehicle/dumpster shall be locked and covered, while <br />located on the facility site and then transported to a predesignated disposal site in <br />accordance with 40 CFR 61.150 and DOT 49 CFR Parts 100-399. <br /> <br />B. An enclosed vehicle will be used to haul waste material to the disposal site. No rental <br />vehicles or trailers shall be used. Vehicle selection, vehicle covers, and work practices <br />shall assure that no asbestos becomes airborne during the loading, transport and <br />unloading activity, and that material is placed in the waste site without breaking any <br />seals. <br /> <br />C. Waste disposal polyethylene bags (6 mil) and containers, non-porous (steel/plastic) <br />drums or equivalent, with labels, appropriate for storing asbestos waste during <br />transportation to the disposal site shall be used. In addition to the OSHA labeling <br />requirements, all containers shall be labeled with the name of the waste generator and <br />the location at which the waste was generated. <br /> <br />D. The contractor shall transport the containers and bags of waste material to the <br />approved waste disposal site. The sealed plastic bags shall be placed into the burial site <br />unless the bags have been broken or damaged. Upon the landfill's approval damaged <br />bags shall be left in the non-porous containers and the entire contaminated package <br />shall be buried. Uncontaminated containers may be reused. <br /> <br />E. Workers loading and unloading the asbestos will wear respirators and disposable <br />clothing when handling material. Asbestos warning signs shall be posted during loading <br />and unloading of asbestos waste. <br /> <br />F. The contractor shall use the HHCU's Waste Shipment Record for disposal records as per <br />40 CFR 61.150 and distribute a copy of all waste shipment records to the designer after <br />the completion of the project. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 09980A3B-0691-41B4-854D-3865F2287392
