1.7. QUALITY CONTROL

A. MEETINGS

1. Pre-Abatement Meeting: Upon City’s approval for abatement, a pre-abatement
meeting will be conducted at the City’s discretion. The Contractor is to attend a
pre-construction meeting with the City representatives, the City’s Consultants,
and other Subcontractors whose work may be affected. The meeting agenda
shall include the following considerations:
a. Review of the Specifications and Plans in detail related to the abatement and
hazards work. All conflicts and ambiguities, if any, shall be discussed.
b. Review in detail the project conditions, schedule, construction sequencing,
abatement application requirements, and quality of completed work.
c. Review in detail the means of protecting adjoining areas; protect of
Contractor’s, Subcontractor’s, City’s workers, and completed work during
the abatement activities.
d. Pre-job submittals requirements.
e. Site security requirements.

B. FIELD QUALITY CONTROL SAMPLING

1. Perimeter Lead Air Monitoring: The City and it’s Consultants may elect to
perform air sampling in non-work areas of the building before the start of
demolition and/or abatement work to establish the background total lead
concentration and/or conduct monitoring during lead hazard-related work such as
demolition, refinishing, or torching and welding activities, to review containment
effectiveness and acceptability of the Contractor's work practices. The City at its
own discretion may collect air samples for analysis by flame atomic absorption
a. Air samples will be analyzed for total lead in accordance with NIOSH
method 7082. The perimeter background concentrations outside the
cordoned or contained abatement area(s) shall not exceed an airborne
concentration above OSHA's "Action Level" of 30 micrograms per cubic
meter (30 µg/m3), averaged over an 8-hour period, for all samples.

b. Air sampling results in excess of the Cal/OSHA “Project Action Level” of
30 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m3) within the construction zone may
require isolation of the work area, upgrades in the required respiratory
protection, amendment of work procedures, and/or clean-up of the affected
area.

Contract No. 2762R
Port Of San Francisco 02130-9
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
DIVISION 2: HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ABATEMENT
AND CONTROL

c. Air sampling results in excess of the EPA's National Ambient Air Quality
Standard (NAAQS) of 1.5 µg/m3 at the site's property line or at adjoining
occupied non-construction areas may require isolation of the work area,
amendment of work procedures, and clean-up of the affected area.

d. Re-sampling of the contaminated areas and handling, shipping, and analysis
charges (including the City or it’s Consultant’s time and expenses) for
additional sampling required to show background levels below these lead
standards shall be borne by the Contractor.

2. Perimeter Lead Wipe Samples: Wipe samples may be collected outside or within
representative work areas prior to start-up of the abatement activities in order to
establish the background or pre-existing lead dust content or at the option of the
City when evidence of contamination of Non-Abatement Areas is visually
apparent,
a. The City may evaluate the lead dust concentrations outside the work area on
the walls and floor during the work progress by collecting wipe samples to
evaluate the integrity of the containment and to detect dust contamination
resulting from:
1) Failure to adequately cordon off or contain work area dusts, clean-up
debris, and use approved work practices, such as wet wiping and
HEPA vacuuming;
2) Failure or breaches in the work area isolation containment, as
applicable;
3) Failure or rupture in the negative pressurization/HEPA filtration
system, as applicable;
4) Incomplete decontamination of personnel or equipment removed
from the work area(s).

3. If the test results indicate that any of the samples is greater than the background
concentrations or 400 µg/ft2, whichever is greater, the Contractor shall:

a. Immediately and automatically stop all work, until corrective actions are
completed.

b. If the sample was collected inside the building but outside the critical
barriers or within the decontamination assemblies, isolate and
decontaminate the affected area using a HEPA-vacuum and wet cleaning
methods.
