2.10 Asbestos. A preplanning initial site investigation should identify existing asbestos probabilities affecting the project. In accordance with OPNAVINST 5100.23, Navy Occupational Safety and Health (NAVOSH) Program Manual, the Navy's objective for Asbestos Management Program Ashore is to eliminate personnel exposure to airborne asbestos fibers in occupied Navy buildings and workspaces through cost effective management of asbestos containing material (ACM). The program consists of three key elements: 1. Inventory, Survey, and Material Evaluation; 2. Operations and Maintenance; 3. Design and Abatement of Hazards. The first two elements are required for shore facilities. Facilities constructed before 1980 or targeted for renovation
work should be given priority for completing the first two elements. For renovation and repair projects, the Asbestos Survey and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Plan should be verified during initial site investigations. Positive and assumed ACM should be noted in the contract documents based on the potential for disturbance. Any project scope involving removal and/or encapsulation of ACM would incorporate the third element of the Asbestos Management Program and comply with OSHA
29 CFR 1910.1101, Asbestos. A unit schedule should be included in the contract bidding schedule to quantify ACM identified in the inventory to deter costly change orders due to hidden conditions.
2.11 Lead. A preplanning initial site investigation should identify existing surface coatings and materials that contain lead probabilities affecting the project. A lead survey should be developed to identify any lead containing material before beginning any renovations. If a lead survey is not available, consider painted surfaces in pre-1982 facilities as lead containing.
2.12 Historical. Initial planning should include the State historical representative if the building is eligible or listed as a historically significant structure.
2.13 Archaeological. A preplanning initial site investigation should include whether the affected area of construction involves earthwork in an archaeologically sensitive area.
2.14 Seismic. A seismic study in Seismic Zones 1 to 4 will be required for renovation projects in accordance Executive Order HDN/95-001, dated 10 January 1995 to determine if structural upgrades are required.
