11/11/94 GC-37 General Conditions Fultz Landfill PRC Environmental Management, Inc.
authority to retain such work instead of requiring the imperfect work to be removed and reconstructed. Engineer may make such deductions as are just and reasonable for imperfect work. 7.7 Payment for Work by Engineer Following Termination of the Contract Upon termination of the Contract by Engineer in accordance with "Right of Engineer to Terminate Agreement," no further payments shall be due Contractor until the work is completed.

If, because of avoidable delay, Engineer should grant to Contractor an extension of time to finish and complete all the work, it will be difficult and impracticable to determine the actual amount of damage which Owner will sustain by reason of Contractor's failure to complete the Contract within the time specified as extended. In that event, Contractor shall pay to Owner as liquidated damages and not as a penalty the sum of $1,000 per each and every calendar day required by him to complete the Contract. Said amounts shall be additional to other amounts Contractor may be required to pay by virtue of other provisions of the Contract such as the granted extensions of time necessitated by avoidable delays.

Such final estimate shall be checked.
General Conditions GC-38 11 /11 /94 PRC Environmental Management, Inc. . Fultz Landfill
approved, and signed by Engineer. After such approval. Owner shall pay or cause to be paid to Contractor, in the manner provided by law, the entire sum so found to be due hereunder, after deducting therefrom all previous payments and such other amounts as the terms of this Contract prescribe.
7.10.2 Neither the final payment nor any part of the retained percentage shall become due until Contractor shall deliver to Engineer a complete release of claims or liens arising out of this Contract or receipts in full in lieu thereof. If required Contractor shall provide an affidavit that so far as he has knowledge or information the release and receipts include all the labor and materials for which a lien or claim could be filed. Contractor may, if a subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or receipt in full, furnish a bond satisfactory to Engineer to indemnify Engineer against any claim or lien (in cases where such payment is not already guaranteed by surety bond). If any claim or lien remains unsatisfied after all payments are made. Contractor shall refund to Engineer all moneys that the latter may be compelled to pay in discharging such a lien, including all costs and a reasonable attorney's fee.

Wire Mesh Gabions 02221-2 11/11/94 PRC Environmental Management, Inc. ' Fultz Landfill 3. EXECUTION 3.1 Foundation Preparation After excavation or stripping to the extent indicated on the drawings or as directed by Engineer, remaining loose or otherwise unsuitable materials shall be removed and all depressions carefully backfilled and compacted using suitable materials from adjacent required excavation. Any buried debris protruding from the foundation that will impede the proper installation and final appearance of the gabion layer shall also be removed, and the voids carefully backfilled and compacted as directed by Engineer Immediately prior to placing the gabions, the prepared foundation surface shall be inspected by Engineer and no material shall be placed thereon until that area has been approved. 3.2 Fabrication Gabions shall be fabricated in such a manner that the sides, ends, lid, and diaphragms can be assembled at the construction site into rectangular baskets of the sizes specified and shown on the drawings. Gabions shall be of single unit construction, i.e.. the base. lid. ends, and sides shall be either woven into a single unit or one edge of these members connected to the base section of the gabion in such a manner that strength and flexibility at the point of connection is at least equal to that of the mesh. Where the length of the gabion exceeds one and one-half its horizontal width, the gabion shall be equally divided by diaphragms of the same mesh and gauge as the body of the gabions, into cells whose length does not exceed the horizontal width. The gabion shall be furnished with the necessary diaphragms secured in proper position on the base in such a manner that no additional tying at this juncture will be necessary. All perimeter edges of the mesh forming the gabion shall be securely selvedged so that the joints formed by tying the selvedges have at least the same strengths as the body of the mesh. Lacing wire or connecting wire shall be supplied in sufficient quantity for securely fastening all diaphragms and edges of the gabion. 3.3 Assembly and Installation Empty gabion units shall be assembled individually and placed on the approved surface to the existing slopes called for on the drawings or as directed by Engineer, with the sides, ends, and diaphragms erected in such a manner to insure the correct position of all creases and that the tops of all sides are level. All adjoining empty gabion units must be connected by tie wire lacing along the perimeter of their contact surfaces in order to obtain a monolithic structure. Lacing of adjoining basket units shall be accomplished by continuous stitching with alternating single and double loops at intervals of not more than 5 inches. All lacing wire terminals shall be securely fastened. The initial line of basket units shall be placed on the prepared surface in a direction parallel to flow, and partially filled to provide anchorage against deformation and displacement during filling operations. After adjoining empty basket units are set to line and grade and common sides with adjacent units thoroughly laced, they shall 11/11/94 02221-3 Wire Mesh Gabions Fuitz Landfill PRC Environmental Management. Inc be placed in tension and stretched to remove any kinks from the mesh and to a uniform alignment. The stretching of empty basket units shall be accomplished in such a manner as to prevent any possible unraveling. Stone filling operations shall proceed carefully with placement by hand or machine so as not to damage galvanized wire coating, or underlying cap construction, to assure a minimum of voids between the stones, and the maintenance of alignment throughout the filling process. Undue bulging of the mesh shall be avoided. To avoid localized deformation, the basket units in any row are to be filled in stages consisting of maximum 12-inch courses, and at no time shall any ceil be filled to a depth exceeding one foot more than the adjoining cell. The maximum height from which the stone may be dropped into the basket units shall be 12-inches. Along all exposed faces, the outer layer of stone shall be carefully placed and arranged by hand to insure a neat and compact appearance The last layer of stone shall be levelled with the top of the gabion to allow for the proper closing of the lid and to provide an even surface that is uniform in appearance Lids shall be stretched tight over the stone fill using crowbars or lid closing tools, until the lid meets the perimeter edges of the front and end panels. The lid shall then be tightly laced with tie wire along all edges, ends, and internal cell diaphragms by continuous stitching with alternating single and double loops at intervals of not more than 5 inches. Special attention shall be given to see that all projections or wire ends are turned into the baskets. Where shown on the drawings or as directed by Engineer, or where a complete gabion unit cannot be installed because of space limitations, the basket unit shall be cut. folded, and wired together to suit existing site conditions. The mesh must be cleanly cut and the surplus mesh cut out completely, or folded back and neatly wired to an adjacent gabion face. The assembling, installation, filling, lid closing, and lacing of the reshaped gabion units shall be carried out as specified above. 4. PAYMENT This item will be part of the lump sum payment.

This is for information only. The tasks covered by this health and safety plan are: (1) installation of leachate and groundwater extraction, collection, and storage system, (2) installation of monitoring wells, and (3) installation of a subtitle C landfill cap and associated drainage features. The operations, equipment, and procedures at the site, as well as the training and medical monitoring of personnel, will comply with the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120, Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response, and the applicable subparts of the OSHA Construction and General Industry Standards, 29 CFR 1926 and 29 CFR 1910, respectively. It is anticipated that the remedial action contractor selected will use these health and safety plan specifications to develop a site-specific health and safety plan. Proposed Beginning Date of Remedial Action: March 1995 Background Review: Preliminary __ Complete X Overall Hazard: High__ Moderate__ Low X Unknown__ Justification for Overall Hazard Rating: The site has been well studied (for hazard ranking purposes) in the remedial investigation conducted by PRC Environmental Management. Inc. (PRQ; the primary hazard is from groundwater contaminated primarily with small amounts of volatile -tf organic compounds (VOC) and municipal solid waste that will be encountered during the installation of the groundwater and leachate extraction wells. B) REVIEW AND APPROVALS Approved: Site Manager Date Site Safety Officer Date Reviewed: Field Team Leader Date EPA Project Manager Date Q SITE/FACILITY DESCRIPTION The Fultz Landfill (Fultz) site is located in an agricultural region of east-central Ohio, approximately 75 miles east of Columbus. The site is about 0.5 mile northeast of the corporate limits of Byesville, Ohio (see Figure 1). The Fultz site was an open dump from about 1958 through 1968. In 1969, the site was licensed to accept household, commercial, and industrial solid waste. On April 14, 1983, a fire at the landfill was brought to the attention of the authorities. In 198S, the landfill was closed. The landfill occupies about 30 acres of a 58-acre land tract within Parcel 1 of Military Lot 5. The landfill is situated on the north slope of a moderately sloped ridge that overlies an abandoned subsurface coal mine in the Upper Freeport coal seam. The northern portion of the landfill lies on a FIGURE 1 SITE LOCATION "••-? -- O ' T;r-N,^ '" '- < SCALE 1:24000 0 looo • 1000 aooo aooo «ooo M°° •OOP 7000 TOT former strip mine. A number of strip mine ponds exist along the drainage swale north of the landfill. Two residences belonging to Alston and Ruth Fultz are in the immediate vicinity of the landfill. A remedial investigation and feasibility study (RI/FS) was completed in June 1991 and a record of decision (ROD) was signed in September 1991. PRC initiated the remedial design (RD) in April 1993. and the final design was completed in October 1994. Data related to site contamination and other subsurface conditions was collected during the RI/FS and RD investigations. These health and safety plan specifications have been prepared for the remedial action contractor to develop a site-specific health and safety plan for activities required to implement the site remedial action as required by the ROD.

The site safety officer will be present during all on-site activities, and will have completed an additional 8-hour health and safety supervisor training course. Site Entry Procedures: The crew will enter the site through the main facility entrance. Workers will remain upwind of all Held activities. Before entering the site, all workers must attend a discussion of personal protection, conducted by the site safety officer, and sign the Safety Meeting Sign-Off Sheet. Additionally, all field personnel are required to read this health and safety plan. Work Limitations (time of day, weather, etc.): Work will be limited to daylight hours only. Workers will be told of possible heat stress conditions by the site safety officer. If weather is extremely hot, work will be limited to the early morning and late afternoon. F) DECONTAMINATION AND DISPOSAL PROCEDURES Decontamination Procedures (personnel, materials, instruments, equipment, etc.): Decontamination procedures include stations such as segregated equipment drop, boot and glove wash, respirator removal, and personnel wash. G) EMERGENCY PROCEDURES General First Aid Procedures Are Described Below: Dermal Exposure: Wash with soap immediately and rinse with copious amounts of clean water. Watch for signs of skin irritation. Seek medical attention at first signs of irritation. Inhalation: Move victim to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if necessary. Observe victim for signs of shock. Seek medical attention immediately. Ingestion: CALL POISON CONTROL CENTER at number given in Section I. Seek immediate medical attention. If possible, a sample of ingested material should be collected and transported to the hospital with the victim. Detailed First Aid Procedures Are Given on the Hazardous Chemical Evaluation Sheets, which are located in Attachment 1. Note: Prior to remedial action activities, field personnel will conduct a pre-emergency run to (1) familiarize personnel with the route to the hospital, and (2) notify the hospital of the planned site activities and potential medical needs. In addition, the site manager will contact local fire protection, police, and medical treatment organizations prior to site startup to make them aware of the planned operations and the nature of possible emergencies.
