The document outlines the environmental assessment results for the ex-CARR (FFG-52), focusing on asbestos and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) as part of preparations for the vessel’s disposal. The ACM/PACM survey conducted on May 12, 2023, indicated that no friable asbestos materials were found during visual inspections; however, it acknowledged the potential presence of other asbestos-containing materials onboard. The survey documented various compartments on the ship and included details on areas requiring repairs.
Additionally, on October 4, 2023, a comprehensive PCB inventory survey was performed, which cataloged equipment onboard and identified items containing PCBs. The report emphasizes the importance of managing hazardous materials to ensure safety and regulatory compliance before the ship's disposal. The findings of this survey are essential for planners and contractors involved in the disposal process, and the detailed lists serve as critical documents for ongoing environmental assessments in accordance with federal regulations surrounding hazardous waste management.
The document outlines the ACM/PACM (Asbestos Containing Material/Presumed Asbestos Containing Material) survey and Low-Level Radioactive Material survey conducted on the ship EX-ELROD (FFG-55), which is currently in disposal status. Conducted on April 10, 2023, by the Environmental, Health, and Safety Manager, the assessment revealed multiple compartments onboard the vessel, identifying friable and non-friable materials. A total of 10 repairs were noted, with visual inspections indicating no friable material found during the survey. However, there is a possibility of other asbestos-containing materials still present. Furthermore, a radioactive material survey confirmed no radioactive materials were detected aboard the ship.
The purpose of these surveys is to ensure safety and compliance before the ship’s disposal, aligning with federal guidelines regarding hazardous materials. The document serves as a comprehensive inventory and assessment of potential hazards that must be addressed, thus facilitating the ship’s disposal while protecting health and safety standards during the process.
The document outlines the ACM/PACM survey report for the ex-Kauffman (FFG-59) vessel, confirming its status for disposal. Conducted on November 16, 2022, by the Environmental, Health, and Safety Manager, the survey identified various compartments on board the ship and the presence of potential asbestos materials. The visual inspection revealed no friable asbestos but noted the possibility of non-friable materials on the vessel.
Subsequent Low-Level Radioactive Material surveys conducted on October 4, 2022, confirmed that no radioactive materials were detected aboard the ship, with various compartments assessed and reported as clean. The report also details an inventory of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) components aboard, confirming that as the vessel was built after January 1, 1984, it is exempt from PCB regulations.
Overall, the document emphasizes the critical evaluations conducted to ensure environmental safety and compliance, marking the vessel's readiness for disposal in accordance with federal regulations. The thorough inspection processes validate the vessel's condition, thereby facilitating its decommissioning and subsequent disposal effectively.
This document outlines the Request for Technical Proposal (RFTP) and Invitation for Bid (IFB) processes for the removal, dismantling, and recycling of three Oliver Hazard Perry Class Frigates located in Philadelphia, PA.
