Comments on Indoor Air Residential Assistance Program
Cleaning contract Scope of Work (6/24/02 Draft)
1. This might be completed. Please advise. If finished send document. Please draft
release form for residents to sign, refer to earlier comment #6
2. Need to be more specific regarding actual area to be cleaned via the trigger
mechanisms. Please note, we feel strongly that one call should not trigger cleaning of
all common spaces
3. Not clear to us, refer to our earlier comment #9
4. Refer to our earlier comment #13
5. Please delete circled area. Please note there is no decon in Scope A and need to have
adequate supervision for each job. Not the same requirement as in Title 15 1 RCNY
6. Please specify exact clearance level as you did in the previous draft. 30 year 10-04
risk is very confusing
7. Need to include conditions where the clearance level cannot be achieved. Such as
overloading, etc.
8. Need to discuss again with your Legal regarding the word loss. As stated previously,
our Legal Department feels loss needs to be deleted
Scope B
9. Trigger for Scope A or Scope B should be based on absence or presence of debris.
Delete first sentence.
10. Same as #1 above
11. Trigger for OSHA regs is 0.1 f/cc. By deleting this, we are requiring the worker to
have PPE irrespective of the OSHA trigger
12. Needs clarification. Also document says to HEPA vac 3 times in one location. 2
times in another location
13. Same as #8 above
14. Need to verify with DOH regarding procedure (this is new in draft)
15. Please note details regarding HVAC cleaning have to be incorporated. DEP awaiting
documents from National Duct Cleaner Association
