PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
1. PRE-BID MEETING AND SITE VISIT. A prebid meeting will be held at the
site at the scheduled time and date indicated on the bid. documents.
Contractor shall supply and wear tyveks and boot covers. PPE may be
left onsite upon completion of meeting. A failure to attend by
Contractor will result in Engineer disallowing the Contractor's
Proposal. No additional compensation shall be made for the pre-bid
meeting and site visit.
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF WORK. The Work to be performed under these
Contract Documents consists of: the clearing and grubbing of
approximately 4.8 acres; the excavation and stockpiling of PCB
contaminated soil; the demolition, removal, and off site disposal of
non-PCB contaminated buildings; and the removal and disposal of six
transformers, four underground storage tanks (USTs) and other various
site debris at the Carolina Transformer NPL Site in Fayetteville, North
Carolina.
The excavation and stockpiling of soil contaminated with PCBs will be
conducted by areas. Soils from the first areas excavated will be
temporarily stockpiled in the designated Temporary Stockpile Area while
a Permanent Stockpile Area is under construction. After Permanent
Stockpile construction is completed, all future excavated soils and
soils previously placed in the Temporary Stockpile Area will be placed
in the Permanent Stockpile. After the initial excavation of an area,
the Engineer will conduct verification sampling to deter~ine the
presence or absence of PCBs. Samples will be analyzed immediately
onsite by the Engineer. The Engineer will use the sample results to
determine if additional excavation is necessary and if so, to what depth
excavation will be conducted.
The demolition, removal and disposal of existing buildings will proceed
concurrently with soil excavation activities.
One half-buried UST contains product with elevated concentrations of
PCBs. The PCB contaminated product shall be removed and properly
disposed in accordance with specifications in SECTION 02050. The empty
tank will be removed, decontaminated if necessary, and properly
disposed.
Contractor shall prepare waste characterization and manifesting for all
wastes to be disposed as required by local, State, or Federal
regulations and the Contractor' selected and Engineer approved disposal
facility. EPA or their authorized representatiye will sign all
manifests as the waste Generator and Owner. ·
If necessary, the Work may also include the temporary onsite storage of
PCB contaminated and non-contaminated materials. 1

the surface on which the membrane is to be installed is
acceptable before commencing work.

be laid out and overlapped by a maximum of four inches
(101 millimeters) for extrusion weld prior to welding or
five inches (127 millimeters) for hot wedge weld prior
to welding. Extreme care shall be taken by the
installer in the preparations of the areas to be welded.
The area to be welded shall be cleaned and prepared
according to the procedures laid down by the material
manufacturer. All sheeting shall be welded together by
means of integration of the extrudite bead with the
lining material, or all sheeting shall be welded
together using a hot wedge welding system.
The welding equipment used shall be capable of
continuously monitoring and controlling the temperature
in the zone of contact where the machine is actually
fusing the lining material so as to ensure that changes
in environmental conditions will not affect the
integrity of the weld.
No "open gaps'' shall be allowed within the seam area.
Where ''open gaps" occur, the material shall be cut,
overlapped, and an overlap extrusion weld shall be
applied.
Anchor Trenches. Membrane Liner anchor trenches will be
excavated in accordance with the lines and widths as
shown on the construction drawings prior to membrane
placement. The corners of the anchor trench shall be
rounded to avoid sharp bends in the liner. The anchor
trench shall be adequately drained to prevent ponding or
softening of adjacent soils while the trench is open.

and depths required for excavation have been designated and
are shown on the construction drawings. The estimated
quantity of soils requiring excavation is stated in the
Contractor's proposal form. However, if sampling and
analyses indicate that additional soils are contaminated,
the Engineer will direct the Contractor in excavating the
remaining PCB contaminated soils. Contractor shall be
compensated for additional excavation and stockpiling work
as specified in Section 1025.
3.2 REMOVAL OF DEBRIS AND RUBBLE. Debris and rubble shall be removed
until the original ground surface elevation has been reached. IN
accordance with the SPCC Plan and the Dust Control Plan, the
Contractor shall take the necessary steps to prevent any spills
or the creation of dust during the removal of debris and rubble.

not limited to, the existing inplace soils, solid material
contained in drums of investigation derived waste, and other
construction materials which are contaminated with PCBs as
determined by the Engineer. The depth of initial excavation
shall be as indicated on the construction drawings. Once the
initial excavation has been completed, the Engineer will conduct
onsite confirmation sampling and analyses. If the analyses
indicate that further excavation is necessary, additional
material shall be removed as directed by Engineer. The Engineer
will then resample and re-analyze. Excavation shall be complete
when laboratory verification sample results indicate that all the
contaminated soil and material has been removed as determined by
the Engineer.
In accordance with the SPCC Plan and the Dust Control Plan, the
Contractor shall take the necessary steps to prevent any spills
or the creation of dust during excavation.
3.4 Quality Assurance Sampling. Following excavation to grades
indicated on the drawings, Engineer will perform Quality
Assurance Sampling. Quality Assurance analyses will consist of a
combination of field confirmation screening analyses and
laboratory verification analyses. Field Confirmation Screening
Analyses will be conducted by EPA Draft Method 4020 (immunoassay
technique). Laboratory Verification Analysis will be conducted
by SW 846 method 8080 for PCBs. Should additional excavation
become necessary, sampling and analyses will be performed at
Engineers discretion to insure that all contaminated soils have
been removed. Sampling locations will be based upon the sampling
grid established during the RI and indicated on the drawings as
grid centers. Four discrete subsamples will be collected,from
soils surrounding the grid center locations indicated on the

analyses. In the event of discrepancy between field confirmation
screening results and laboratory verification results, the
laboratory verification results shall govern.
3.5 STOCKPILING. The Contractor shall provide all the labor,
equipment, and materials required to permanently stockpile
materials contaminated with PCBs. The Contractor shall

placement. Engineer may at his discretion resample inplace
backfill for consistency with the previously submitted analytical
results for the above chemical requirements. If inplace backfill
analysis is not consistent with previous results submitted by the
Contractor as determined by the Engineer, Contractor shall remove
unsatisfactory material, return it to place of origin, and
replace with satisfactory backfill without additional cost to the
Engineer.
Backfill shall be spread in lifts that will not exceed 8 inches
in thickness after compaction to 90% of maximum density at
