Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document, FAA Form 3900-18, is an Environmental and Occupational Safety and Health (EOSH) Checklist designed for pre-construction, installation, and non-routine maintenance activities that may impact NAS operations and employees. It serves as a tool to assess and reassess potential hazards before and during work commencement. The form must be completed and reviewed prior to initiating construction.

• Section A (Purpose): Outlines the intent of the checklist.
• Section B (Work Summary Information): Collects details about the project, including District Office, Work Location, Facility, Work Description, Project Number/JCN, Planned Start/Completion Dates, and key personnel contacts (Contractor, Project/Design Representative, COR/Specialist, District Office EOSH Contact, Facility Representative).
• Section C (Evaluation): Used by the District Office Manager or designee to determine if the remainder of the checklist needs completion based on potential EOSH hazards.
• Section D (Facility Procedures): Requires review and documentation of applicable facility procedures related to Asbestos Contingency, Hazard Communication, Lockout/Tagout, Work Permits, Emergency Plans, Fire Protection Systems, Confined Space Entry, Work at Heights, Restricted Areas, and First Aid/Bloodborne Pathogens.
• Section E (Activity Hazard): Identifies potential hazardous exposures and activities that could impact sensitive NAS operations, covering areas such as Asbestos, Chemicals, Hazardous Materials, Waste Management, HVAC, Equipment Removal, Fire Protection, Lead Exposure, Electrical Safety, Noise, Walking Surfaces, Work above Equipment, Water Quality, Cranes/Rigging, Lighting, Machinery, and Excavation.
• Section F (Site Safety and Health – Controls): Documents the identified hazards from Section E and the corresponding controls to be used.
• Section G (Site Walk-Through): Records the time, date, and personnel involved in a site walk-through.
• Section H (Review Information): Contains signature blocks for the FAA Originator, Contractor, and District Office Manager or designee to document review and discussion.
• Section I (Distribution List): Specifies the required distribution of the completed form.

While this is a checklist for internal FAA use and contractor compliance, bidders should be aware that its completion is mandatory before work begins. The information gathered in Sections D, E, and F will inform contractors about specific safety and environmental requirements, potential hazards, and necessary control measures that will be enforced during the project. Understanding these requirements is crucial for accurate bidding and successful project execution, as non-compliance can lead to delays or work stoppages. The contact information in Section B is also vital for communication during the pre-construction and construction phases.
