Professional Services
Atlantic Cape Community College is requesting Environmental Engineering Services for the construction of the referenced project. The proposed Student Success and Career Planning Center building located on the Mays Landing Campus will be approximately 20,000 sf. in size which will be located between the “B” and “J” Buildings and tied into “J” Building and the Cafeteria in “C” Building. The following is an outline delineating the materials identified by the College that will require testing and analysis, and may require abatement in order to facilitate the construction of the above referenced building. Drawings of the spaces are attached.
Building C

• Insulation and enclosure of the existing air handler unit over the existing Cafeteria and Kitchen.
• Pipe fittings to and from the existing air handling unit over the Cafeteria and Kitchen.
• The College is requesting a full evaluation and analysis of any ACMs that may exist within the work area prior to bidding for remediation.
Building J
• The College is renovating the existing student center and converting the space to the testing center. The College does not believe there are any ACMs in the work area. The College is requesting a full evaluation and analysis of any ACMs that may exist within the work area prior to bidding for remediation.

Construction Documents / Bidding Phase
• Review the College’s Asbestos Management Plan on file.
• Execute sampling and analysis of suspected materials in Buildings C and J as identified above. Test shall include Asbestos Bulk Sampling TEM and PLM.
• Analysis shall include inspection and sampling for the potential presence of PCBs and lead-based paint.
• Visual inspection of potential Universal Waste containing components shall be performed, including electrical and mechanical components that may potentially contain PCB-based dielectric fluid, mercury-liquid filled equipment, and refrigerant systems which may contain CFCs, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, anhydrous ammonia or other hazardous gases, for the purpose of classifying the materials for proper waste and disposal. • Environmental Engineer shall be responsible for the development of
technical specifications and drawings to be incorporated into the Bidding Documents.
• All technical specifications and drawings for ACM abatement shall be in accordance to New Jersey Administrative Code (NJAC) 5-23:8 for an occupied building and applicable regulations.
• Environmental Engineer shall attend Pre-bid Meeting for remediation.
• Environmental Engineer shall respond to bidders’ request for information.
Construction Administration
• Environmental Engineering Services shall assign a Project Monitor (Asbestos Safety Technician – AST) to this project.
• Shall provide on-site monitoring of the removal including air sampling. • Attend a pre-construction and progress meetings as required for the
abatement work.
• Coordinate the overall abatement construction on behalf of the College.
The abatement work will need to be done on second shift or when the College is closed because College classes and activities will take place during the day. College will close for Spring break on March 14, 2016 and reopen on March 21, 2016.
