Regulatory Submittal Part I — Work Plan
Fiterman Hall — 30 West Broadway, New York, New York
Airtek Project 05-0867 — January 10, 2006
side of the Building, the exposed slabs and decks will be subject to HEPA
vacuuming and wet-wiping, and new critical barrier walls (caulked stud &
plywood walls, plus two layers of 6-mil polyethylene sheeting) will be
established outboard of the existing temporary barrier walls. All exterior
doors that are not to be used as Clean Zone entryways, or decontamination
unit access/egress points will be locked and have critical barriers installed.
6.3.2 Establishment of Negative Air Pressure
Upon completion of the building envelope preparation, negative air
pressure will be established in any area of the Building where work is to
be conducted. Due to the large volume of the anticipated work areas, a
NYS DOL Variance will be solicited to allow the use of smoke testing to
verify negative pressure as opposed to manometer readings.
6.3.3 Material Shredder
In the south quadrant of the second floor (see Attachment IV —
Remediation Phasing Plan 1-B) a penetration will be cut in the floor to
allow the installation of a material shredder that will be used to reduce and
package Gut-Strip building debris. The shredder will produce packaged
debris that will then be processed through the decontamination units prior
to loading for transport and disposal as asbestos at a minimum.
6.3.4 Work Areas
The entire structure will be established as one containment area. Negative
air pressure micro-traps and exhaust manifolds will be established on each
floor.
6.3.5 Removals
All interior materials, including moveable objects, will be subject to
abatement and removal. They will be bagged and/or processed through the
material shredder and disposed of as ACM waste at a minimum. Certain
non-porous fixtures and other impermeable materials may be
decontaminated by HEPA-vacuum and wet wiping. Efficacy of this
decontamination will be determined by the Environmental Consultant as
described in the WSNV (Submittal Part IV). All ceiling systems (plaster,
tiles, sheetrock, etc.), wall systems (plaster, wall board, etc.), and floor
systems, (tiles, carpet, etc.) will be removed and bagged or shredded for
disposal as ACM waste at a minimum. Waste characterization testing as
described in the WSMP will be used to make final waste determinations.
All interstitial spaces (i.e., chases, shafts, wet columns, etc.) will be
accessed, wet-wiped, and HEPA-vacuumed. Remaining structural
members will be wet-wiped, HEPA vacuumed.
