Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a Limited Pre-Renovation Asbestos and Lead Paint Survey Report for the James A. Haley VA Hospital. It details the findings of a survey conducted to identify potential asbestos-containing materials (ACM) and lead-based paint (LBP) in designated areas of the hospital, specifically within the 1st floor Wing C MRI areas and the roof, in preparation for planned renovations.

• Asbestos Survey: Conducted in accordance with EPA 40 CFR Part 763 Subpart E. A total of 45 bulk samples were collected from 19 homogeneous areas. Laboratory analysis indicated that none of the sampled materials contained asbestos.
• Lead Paint Survey: Performed to comply with OSHA Lead Standard (29 CFR 1926.62). Six paint chip samples were collected. Laboratory analysis indicated that lead was not detected in any of the samples above the laboratory detection/reporting limit.
• Regulatory Overview: Includes summaries of relevant regulations for asbestos (NESHAP, FDEP, OSHA) and lead-based paint (EPA, HUD, FDEP, OSHA).
• Appendices: Contain detailed information including a summary of asbestos sample layers, lead paint summary table, analytical laboratory results for asbestos and lead paint, representative photographs, and licenses and certifications.

This report is crucial for any contractor or vendor involved in the planned renovations at the James A. Haley VA Hospital. It provides essential information regarding the absence of asbestos and lead in the surveyed materials, which can inform safety protocols, remediation planning, and cost estimations. Bidders should review the findings and recommendations to understand potential hazards and compliance requirements related to the renovation work. The report is not a bidding document, and contractors should draw their own conclusions regarding further investigation or remediation.

Questions & Answers / Clarifications

This document contains responses to questions submitted by potential bidders regarding the MRI suite project, clarifying various aspects of the solicitation, scope of work, and requirements.

• Fire Protection Engineer: The engineer is part of the design team, not solely a reviewer during construction.
• Hazmat: An initial NESHAP report is provided. Abatement is required only for the structural work in the identified asbestos area; other areas require testing if new design impacts them.
• Design Schedule & Deliverables: The VA aims to maintain 140 days for design and 4 deliverables, but is willing to reduce the final submission review period to 7 days. Flexibility in timing between submissions within the 140-day period is possible, provided VA review time is not reduced.
• Project Experience: Project examples for Factor 2 can be from the bidding design firm, provided they are included in the contract.
• MRI Equipment: The VA will provide the MRI equipment and support personnel.
• Drawings: Siemens drawings dated 9/29/2025 are final and should be used starting with the 65% refresh. The 90% progress set was not reviewed or approved and serves as a rough basis for the 65% submittal.
• TIL Standards: Compliance with current TIL standards is the contractor's responsibility during the design phase.
• RF Shielding Vendor: The Design-Build (DB) team is responsible for hiring the RF shielding vendor.
• Structural Analysis: Bid includes additions shown in drawings. The DB team is responsible for additional structural design if they change loads or locations.
• Medical Gases: Required medical gases are currently in the vicinity of the new MRI room.
• HVAC Scope: Includes new AHU, controls, ductwork, VAVs, and connections to equipment, not just terminal modifications.
• Superintendent/SSHO/QA/QC Roles: A superintendent cannot dual-hat as SSHO or QA/QC. SSHO must be full-time. The PM can dual-hat as QA/QC. No triple-hatting is allowed.
• Contract Performance Period: Reduced to 600 total days (140 design, 460 construction), which is a maximum. Bids can reflect quicker completion.
• Procurement Type: This is a FAR Part 12.201-1(a) in combination with FAR 15.103-1 procurement for contracts under $7.5M.
• Class 2 Procedure Room: The new MRI room is intended to function as a Class 2 Procedure Room.
• Floor Structure: A sloped or ramped transition at the entry is acceptable due to floor structure limitations, provided it meets ABA/ADA requirements.
• Magnetic Shielding Plan: Will be developed by the DB team.
• Badging: Contractor-issued badges are required for all personnel except SSHO and superintendent (and PM if requested), who will receive VA-issued PIV badges.
• Funds: Funds are available now.
• Abatement: Main project area is free of hazmat; structural work for rooftop equipment may require abatement unless the DB team changes its location.
• Medical Equipment Removal: VA will remove medical equipment from working areas.
• Working Areas: The main work area will be vacant, but surrounding areas will be occupied. Coordination is required for work outside the main site.
• Chiller Equipment: The D/B team is responsible for filling chiller equipment with glycol.
• Dumpster Placement: To be determined upon award.
• Hallway Occupancy: Proper life safety egress paths must be maintained; the DB team and VA will coordinate during design.
• MRI Machine Handling: Siemens is responsible for unloading and handling the new MRI machine to its placement.
• Sterilizing Garments: Not required inside the work area. Contractor's ICRA plan shall incorporate dust mitigation (ICRA Class IV).
• Working Hours: Normal hours are 0700-1530, with potential for after-hours work to minimize facility impact.

These clarifications address numerous questions regarding scope, technical requirements, personnel roles, and administrative procedures, providing essential details for bidders to refine their proposals.
