BACKGROUND: The file floor in the Forma0on Center and the main corridors on the first and third level of the RWHSC are badly in need of replacement. The rubber tile installed several years ago in other areas of the RWHSC has proven to be a good solution as it respects durability, safety, aesthetes and ease of maintenance. It is therefore recommended that the same application be carried out in these locations. The majority of existing tile in the Recreation Center contains non-friable asbestos. The file is in poc condition in some Instances and would not provide a good bass upon which to install the new rubber tile. A bid for removal and disposal of the existing the was solicited, as well as follow up air quality monitoring to ensure a clean environment after the abatement process was completed (bid 41266). Based on a preliminary assessment of potential bids and bidders, it became evident that splitting the bids into separate components would provide the most economical outcome. The combined dollar amount of all components does not reach the threshold for formal bidding and,therefore, Informal bids were solicited 0 accomplish the following work: 1. Purchase the rubber floor his (bid #1249) 2. Removal and abatement of existing asbestos composition tile in Recreation Center(bid #126( 3. Air quality monitoring ofashestos abatement (bid#1266) 4.
