acoustical materials, acoustical ceiling tiles and most thermal system insulation. Non - friable materials are those that cannot be crumbled easily, such as resilient floor tiles and cement asbestos (Transite) board. Although the emphasis is on detecting friable materials, the possible presence of non - friable ACBM must also be considered, since non - friable materials may be pulverized or otherwise damaged and release asbestos fibers into the air during building demolition. The next phase of the surveys will involve the selection of sampling areas and sample locations. Sample areas are typically grouped based on material homogeneity. A homogeneous area is one that contains suspect materials that appear by texture, color and wear to be uniform and applied or installed at the same general time period. After sampling areas have been determined and recorded, representative samples of suspect materials will be collected. Only suspect material samples will be submitted for laboratory analyses. Samples will be sealed in airtight containers, labeled, and forwarded to an approved laboratory for analysis by the EPA - recommended method of Polarized Light Microscopy coupled with dispersion staining. Once sample analyses have been received, results will be reported as a Letter Report to the City of South Bend. The requisite Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM), Notification of Demolition and Renovation Operations forms (with documentation) will also be prepared for signature by an "authorized representative" of the City of South Bend, and subsequent facsimile submittal to the Office of Air Quality. Task 2 — Design Services / Demolition Quote Documents CBBEL staff will design and prepare final quote documents for the project. All plans and specifications will be prepared in accordance with City Standards and Specifications. The bid documents will include recommendations provided in the Asbestos Survey to address the requirements of the regulatory agencies involved with this demolition. Specifications will be developed utilizing standard specifications provided by the City in addition to CBBEL standard specifications. Applicable conflicts will be brought to your attention for your input. CBBEL staff will provide an opinion of probable cost based on the final quote documents. This opinion will be based on the judgment of CBBEL engineering staff, supplemented by local construction project history information provided by the City. Task 3 — Quote Services CBBEL will send out up to five (5) quote requests with the full quote documents to contractors chosen by the City. CBBEL will assist the City in conducting a pre -quote conference at the sites. CBBEL will address contractor questions and prepare and issue addenda. Following quote opening, CBBEL will compile and certify quote tabulation sheets and provide a contract award recommendation to the Owner. It is assumed that City staff or representatives will coordinate the quote collection, quote opening, and the preparation of the construction agreement. 3 Christopher B. Burke Engineering Ltd.
