Bid Specifications / Proposal

Summary

The Sanilac County Land Bank Authority (SCLBA) is seeking an experienced and responsible

contractor for the identification and marking of asbestos containing materials (ACM) and

hazardous materials in a property slated for demolition. The successful Respondent will meet all

qualifications, including competitive pricing, as delineated in this proposal. All Respondents shall

be screened through the federal System for Award Management (SAM) and if listed, will not be

eligible in accordance with their debarment stipulations.

The successful Respondent shall provide all necessary facilities, materials, supplies, equipment,

supervision, personnel, and other items and services to perform the services as defined in this

RFP. Each survey shall include up to 30 samples for Asbestos Containing Materials. Any need

for samples over 30, will be compensated at the cost of laboratory costs. Receipts will need to

be provided for payment of these extra samples.

Description

The purpose of the survey is to locate and identify potential hazardous materials present within

the building, or within close proximity to the building, that may require marking and disposal, or

other consideration, before a structure is demolished. A report will be submitted to the SCLBA,

identifying and quantifying all hazardous materials for properties assigned to the winning

Respondent.

Structures should be surveyed for the following materials:

• Asbestos containing materials (ACM) (including vermiculite, and in the case of

demolition, concrete)

• Mechanical and electrical systems containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB)

• Potentially hazardous or regulated materials/waste located in containers and/or drums

• Potential mercury containing equipment

During preparation of the survey, a thorough physical inspection should be performed to assess

and evaluate the presence of asbestos containing materials at the property. As part of this

inspection the following methodology should be used for ACM:

1. A survey should be performed to determine the extent and location of ACM in the survey

area. The survey should be qualitative and quantitative in that an attempt should be

made to locate accessible friable and non-friable ACM areas, as well as a quantity

analysis of the amount of ACM. All accessible areas of the survey should be inspected.

2. Bulk samples of all suspected ACM shall be collected by a Michigan Accredited

Asbestos Inspector. Samples shall be collected in a safe manner. As required, limited

destructive sampling (ie interior wall or ceiling demolition) should be conducted as part of

this assessment in order to gain access to suspected ACM.

3. Per EPA-recommended sampling guidelines, bulk samples shall be collected in each

homogeneous area encountered. Homogeneous area is defined as an area of material

that is uniform in color, texture, and appearance.

4. Samples of suspect ACM shall be analyzed by an accredited National Voluntary

Laboratory Accreditation Program via polarized light microscopy and dispersion staining

following the EPA Test Method (EPA-600/M4-82-020) and the National Institute of

Standards and Technology Bulk Asbestos Handbook.

5. In an effort to minimize costs, respondents shall utilize first positive stop analysis

methodologies.

6. Upon completion of field inspection and receipt of laboratory data, respondent shall

prepare a report that will include: a) a general description of the ACM identified; b) a

determination by the quantity of materials and sampling areas; c) a description of the

physical assessment of friable and thermal insulating materials; d) a discussion

regarding the quality of assurance and quality control as well as methodology; e)

laboratory testing results; and f) any relevant photographs and/or diagrams.

The survey for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), potential mercury containing equipment, and

containers that may contain hazardous or regulated materials/waste shall be completed

according to the following procedures:

1. Inspect the accessible areas of the building for potential hazardous materials such as

PCB containing light ballasts, transformers, and mercury light bulbs and switches.

2. Inspection of the interior and exterior of the building to identify the location of containers,

drums, batteries, oil waste separator basins, or other features that may contain

potentially hazardous or regulated materials/waste. Label identified containers for

removal.

3. Note appropriate information identified during this inspection and provide

recommendations for the disposal of equipment or containers identified as containing

PCBs, mercury or potentially hazardous or regulated materials/waste.

Report Requirements

Written reports shall be provided electronically to the SCLBA. Each report shall contain, at a

minimum, the following items:

• Title Page including company name, inspector’s name, company mailing address and

phone number; street address of subject property; date of inspection, and date of report

preparation

• Inspector Information Page including printed name and signature of each individual

involved in the inspection; the Asbestos Inspector’s license number and expiration date

for each individual involved in the inspection and/or writing of the report

• Methodologies and procedures of determining sample sites and any exclusions related

to surveying or sampling

• Sampling and analytical techniques utilized

• Detailed site description for both interior and exterior to include estimated square or

linear footage for each type of suspect building material and condition of suspect

building materials

• A map of the structure(s) which indicates all sample locations and labels of rooms as

used throughout the report (ie living room)

• Location, type of material, methods of sampling and results of all samples taken;

positively identified as hazardous

• Laboratory results for each sample

• Chain of custody documentation

• Summary of ACM and hazardous materials found with descriptions of both location and

quantity

• Copy of surveyor’s Asbestos Inspector certification
