Med-Tox Northwest conducted a hazardous building materials survey for the renovation of Building 3757 at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. The survey identified asbestos-containing materials (ACM) in specific locations, including cementitious sealant on a 10-inch pipe and a 14-inch hanging tank in the mechanical room, and white sealant on metal ducting on the roof. Various materials were tested for asbestos, with most determined to be non-asbestos containing. Lead was detected in most painted surfaces, requiring compliance with OSHA regulations during disturbance. No PCBs were found in bulk samples, but all fluorescent light ballasts manufactured before 1979 are assumed to contain PCBs, and all light tubes contain mercury. The report recommends professional removal of all identified ACM, continued destructive investigation during renovation, and proper disposal/recycling of hazardous materials like PCB ballasts and mercury-containing light tubes. The survey emphasizes on-site presence of the report for worker safety and regulatory compliance.

The Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) Public Works Engineering Services Division seeks approval for a Firm-Fixed Price contract to repair the Ghost DFAC (Building 3757). This contract includes a name-brand requirement for Niagara Framework (Tridium Niagara N4) Direct Digital Control (DDC) equipment, software, and licensing agreements. The justification for this sole-source component is the existing base-wide standardization on the Niagara N4 system, which allows for centralized monitoring, programming, and control of HVAC systems across JBLM. Incompatibility with the current Tridium Niagara N4 Supervisor would disrupt operations, compromise comfort and safety, and lead to energy inefficiencies. While the overall contract is a 100% small business set-aside under the SBA 8(a) program, the Niagara-branded DDC components are essential for seamless integration and communication with the prevailing base infrastructure.
