CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE # GS-00F-0001R

EFFECTIVE 10/01/04

The successful completion of many environmental service projects incorporates many of the same procedures and capabilities that are integrated into the successful completion of the particular project. For example, in performing waste management services, SIN 899-4, the development of a waste plan can involve an initial sampling of hazardous materials, analyzing the site conditions, and evaluating engineering controls before an effective management plan is developed. As such, GEM’s environmental service capabilities are grouped under six general areas: multi-media sampling, sample management, and quality control; solid, hazardous, and mixed waste management; site characterization; engineering/site remediation; environmental planning, regulatory compliance, and permitting services; and pre-purchase environmental assessments. Various components of each of these capabilities and a cross-matrix of GEM’s capabilities to the scopes of the SIN’s GEM is proposing are itemized as follows: The following sections provide further detail of GEM’s services and capabilities for each SIN. SubSIN 899-1 Environmental Planning Services & Documentation Meeting regulatory compliance amongst federal, state, and local requirements can be a moving target. GEM offers environmental planning, other regulatory compliance and permitting services to ensure all the requirements are fulfilled. Included in our services are NEPA compliance, Emergency Planning and Community right-to-know Act (EPCRA) compliance, multi-media compliance support services, regulatory tracking, regulatory agency negotiation and liaison services, and public participation and outreach programs. NEPA Compliance NEPA established guidelines for managing and preserving the environment of the United States. Under NEPA, government agencies and all concerns that are federally funded are required to file a formal Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) while minor actions require an Environmental Assessment (EA) or Categorical Exclusion. GEM can assist in determining the degree and extent of NEPA compliance required for proposed projects and help with processing the appropriate NEPA documentation. NEPA, as well as many other environmental regulations, requires public participation to identify and achieve consensus on difficult issues and minimize the risk of subsequent litigation. GEM offers a breadth of expertise in public participation and outreach programs, including the following: 1. Strategic analysis and planning 2. Issue identification, risk evaluation, and communication 3. Development of public participation program and management plans 4. Development of charters and mission statements 5. Conducting public meetings for stakeholder involvement, including preparation of all support materials 6. Advisory group coordination Management Plans The final product of the large majority of assignments undertaken by GEM results in the production of plans, reports, studies, and design documents. Our deliverable documents are designed to be "user friendly" and understandable to the level of personnel that will be using them. For military installations, GEM's staff has previously prepared a diverse spectrum of management plans related to base operational activities. Base planning activities have included: 1. Comprehensive waste management plans 2. Hazardous waste analysis plans 3. Wetlands management plans 4. Noise management plans (ground, vehicle, ordinance, and aircraft SubSIN 899-2 Environmental Compliance Services Multi-Media Compliance Assessments A multimedia environmental compliance assessment is conducted to identify and correct potential environmental liabilities before discovery by a regulatory agency. It greatly reduces a facility's chance of incurring costly fines for failure to comply with environmental regulations. An environmental compliance assessment typically involves gathering initial background data, performing a site visit and facility inspection, and providing a final report that documents the assessment findings and provides recommendations. In general, the final product of the compliance assessment is a report summarizing applicable regulatory requirements and evaluating the facilities compliance with each requirement. The report includes primary recommendations for action necessary to attain and maintain compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. The report also includes secondary recommendations to assist with the development of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to ensure continued compliance. To assist clients with environmental management issues, GEM can develop environmental compliance assessment manuals that include an overview of federal environmental programs, summaries of applicable federal and state regulations, and checklists and questionnaires to assist a compliance assessment team in completing the assessment. GEM can also conduct multi-day training programs and developed checklists and questionnaires for clients to conduct interim, internal compliance assessments. In addition, GEM can develop a complete corporate policies and procedures manual addressing every area of environmental management throughout client facilities, ensuring compliance with federal environmental regulations at every level of activity from process and maintenance operations to corporate decision making. RCRA Support and Permitting GEM assists clients with the RCRA Part B permitting process. Our staff has substantial experience in preparing and updating RCRA Part B permit application manuals, as well as associated plans such as contingency plans, Toxic Organic Management Plans, and Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures (SPCC) plans. We can prepare facility RCRA closure cost estimates, and assist facilities with routine RCRA compliance obligations. GEM also provides assistance with the new 40 CFR Part 264 Subpart CC requirements for owners and operators of hazardous waste tanks, identifying which tanks and containers are covered, which exemptions apply to the facility, and which tank modifications are required. GEM engineers have expertise in RCRA site closure, the RCRA Facility Investigation/Corrective measure Study/Corrective Measure Implementation process, and Transport, Storage, and Disposal (TSD) facility audits. SubSIN 899-4 Waste Management Services Waste Storage Management Hazardous materials management involves a number of regulatory requirements; client-specific needs, and sound business practices. GEM has performed numerous audits of hazardous materials management practices for government and commercial clients including establishing hazardous materials management compliance programs. As part these programs, they have completed comprehensive assessments of airport facilities with respect to hazardous materials management. In addition, they have developed management plans/programs for other governmental clients that are designed to establish centralized procedures and sound management practices that emphasize regulatory compliance and the use of best management practices. GEM compliance specialists routinely assist clients with facilities operating under large Quantity Generator (LQG) status to comply with satellite accumulation requirements, 90-day storage area requirements, record keeping, and biennial hazardous waste reporting. GEM staff verifies all satellite and 90-day storage area drums are closed and labeled in accordance with the regulatory requirements, including the generator's EPA Identification (ID) number, appropriate waste description and waste codes, and the start date for the 90-day accumulation drums. GEM staff also helps facilities identify ways to decrease waste generation and change status from LQG to Small Quantity Generator (SQG) or Conditionally Exempt SQG with significant reduction in generator requirements and associated savings in money, time, and manpower. GEM can provide engineering design services and guidance related to hazardous materials storage. Design packages summarize all existing requirements, including OSHA, EPA, BOCA, and local regulations. Asbestos/Lead-based Paint Management GEM's scientists and engineers have provided asbestos and lead-based paint services to industry and government clients in the areas of regulatory compliance support, risk assessment, field sampling/surveys, removal design, plan and specification development, removal oversight, building and equipment decontamination, operation and maintenance manual preparation, and cleanup and post cleanup agency negotiations and closure. Survey projects have ranged from a small, individual office building to facilities with hundreds of buildings at a single location, to clients with hundreds of buildings located throughout the country. Projects have been performed for and major DOD facilities, financial lending and investment institutions, and commercial property managers with buildings located over a large geographic area. In the majority of the investigations, the buildings were occupied. Following the asbestos survey and analytical results, GEM prepares reports containing a detailed inventory of asbestos-containing materials identified within the facility. The components of this report include: asbestos content/type/percent concentration/binding matrix composition (all samples are analyzed by AIHA/NVLAP accredited and EPA/NIOSH-proficient laboratories); material type/location; material condition; spatial extent (linear ft, ft²); exposure risk assessment hazard area prioritization (a nationally recognized algorithm, which incorporates over 50 variables, developed for the US EPA); and estimated removal cost. GEM's scientists and engineers have been assisting clients in the management of lead hazards to comply with current legislation since 1987 using Housing and Urban Development (HUD) 24 CFR35, 905, 941, 965, and 968 Interim Rule on Lead-Based Paint Hazard Elimination. In general, our lead-based paint projects include the following components: comprehensive and statistically valid building/facility surveys with certified and licensed personnel using state-of-the-art X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measuring units backed by inductively-coupled plasma (ICP) laboratory analytical validation samples: collection of surface wipe samples and paint chips to determine exposure levels (analysis of these samples is conducted by atomic absorption (AA) or ICP/electron scanning); physical assessment (e.g., material condition, exposed surface area, air plenum, activity and movement, water damage, accessibility, lead content, substrate component, and location); development and compilation of comprehensive data bases for large projects involving multiple facilities and/or multiple tenant/resident locations; and comprehensive survey reports in accordance with state-of-the-art documentation procedures prepared for all surveys. Environmental Protection and Human Health Risk Assessment GEM provides an outstanding team of experts in the field of Risk Assessment, including radiological, toxicological, and human health risk assessment. Risk assessments are conducted in accordance with guidance documents entitled Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (EPA, 1986), the Superfund and Public Health Evaluation Manual (EPA, October 1986), the Superfund Exposure Assessment Manual (EPA, 1988), Risk Assessment Guidance for Superfund, the Human Health Evaluation Manual (EPA, March 1989), as well as new guidance documents when they become issued. We use all data available for any assigned site, including historical data, to assess the nature and extent of contamination, and the potential contaminant migration and exposure pathways. Risks to human health and the environment are scientifically calculated using accepted protocols. The results of these assessments are used to determine remedial action objectives, evaluate general response actions, and facilitate site closure. We have conducted risk assessments ranging in complexity from buildings contaminated with simple compounds to complex NPL sites with multiple exposure pathways and over 40 contaminants posing potential risks to public health and the environment. GEM is providing technical support and assistance in the development of policy and the field implementation and verification of radiological and toxicological risk assessments. This support has also included the development of policy guidance for the assessment of the human health risk associated with malevolent acts to DOE facilities. These assessments determine the potential human health effects of the airborne release of radiological and/or toxicological materials on DOE employees, the public, and the environment. Hazardous Materials Management Software Systems Engineering GEM has developed a family of Information locating software designed to provide a user with means of rapidly searching a variety of databases for specific data desired. This software runs under Microsoft Windows and can be utilized in either single computer or network environments. In addition, a wide variety of database protocols including Oracle, Paradox, dBase, XBase, FoxPro, and others are supported. This approach has been successful in Information Locator developments for the Tank Waste Remediation system at DOE’s Hanford Site and for site wide business management and engineering data at DOE’s Savannah River Site. The application is a modern “point and click” Windows implementation running in fully complied, executable code, thereby reducing the amount of memory overhead consumed by the application and vastly increasing time of execution. Data fusion is accomplished through accessing a variety of data of like or similar topics either locally or through remote server access. Data Management Services GEM has extensive experience in records management. GEM has effectively controlled the creation, collection, organization, maintenance, use and disposition of digital and hard copy technical, operations and management records for major commercial and government organizations. This experience is demonstrated through the application of standards, procedures, techniques, and technology to assure the continued protection, accountability, and retrievable of the records documenting the organization, policies, functions, decisions and essential transactions. GEM currently provides hands-on assistance for DOE’s strategic petroleum reserve to design and develop a records management system that will track and manage all records throughout the entire life cycle of each record including: creation, indexing, reviews and revisions, approvals, storage, retrieval, distribution and final disposition. SubSIN 899-6 Remote Advisory Services Hazard Communication GEM can also provide support for hazard communication programs in relation to both employees under OSHA regulation 1920.1200 and the community under SARA Title III. We have extensive experience in auditing facilities for compliance with these requirements. Our personnel have also developed hazard communication programs and aided facilities in compiling material safety data sheets. GEM's active association memberships also allow us to monitor and provide input to the pending EPA hazard communication regulations. Public Outreach GEM public outreach includes public involvement support, outreach administrative support, and conference logistical support. For the DOE at LANL, in December 1995, January 1996, and August 1996, GEM planned, organized, and carried out public conferences at The Aspen Institute in support of DOE public issues. GEM handled planning, logistics, facility and speaker arrangements, publicity, and communications for these public outreach activities. Several conferences are in the planning phase for 1997-1998. SubSIN 899-8 Remediation Services Site Characterization The releases of contaminants into the soil, surface water, groundwater, and air can occur from a wide variety of activities over specific and unknown periods of time. They can affect one or many media and receptors. GEM has provided high quality characterization services to the government and industry for over 13 years. Our staff personnel also bring over 350 cumulative years of site characterization experience to the company. These characterizations include: limited site inspections, comprehensive site inspections, hazardous waste sampling, comprehensive compliance audits, environmental impairment liability audits, Phase I and Phase II property transfer assessments (including pre-construction assessments), OSHA compliance audits, and due diligence audits. GEM's staff has significant experience in subsurface and surface/facility characterizations. Risks associated with a contaminant release can range from minimal human health risks and environmental impacts to an on-going source of exposure to a community. The ultimate goal of any site characterization is the accurate description (quantitative and qualitative) of the contaminants of concern released at a site and their impact to it. The characterization provides the basis for sound environmental decisions. The scope of the characterization will vary based on site conditions, knowledge of release occurrences, required level of effort, and costs. To maximize the return of the characterization process, innovative, streamlined, and cost effective approaches are developed. GEM uses a multi-disciplinary team of professionals to develop the optimum approach and to perform the optimum characterization activities. Site Investigations We have the technical expertise and resources to prepare and implement every aspect of any required material, soil, or groundwater investigation. Our qualified engineers, scientists, and geologists can provide technical leadership and support in the following areas: work plan preparation (prepared per investigation and site specific requirements for review and approval by all cognizant parties); third party services to support field operations (e.g., drilling services, elevation surveys, geophysical surveys, analytical services, and waste disposal services selected based on competitive pricing and evaluation of a firm's ability to provide an on-time, quality product (as appropriate, additional consideration will be given to technically qualified disadvantaged and small businesses)); permitting (permits are obtained to support borings, well installation, and investigation-derived waste disposal requirements); contamination assessment/multimedia sampling; quality assurance, validation and data management (our record keeping and reporting requirements are stringent, our analytical data are legally defensible); investigation report and recommendations (interim and final reports of investigations pursuant to client and cognizant agency standards and are stamped and signed by professionals registered in the appropriate state); and regulatory interaction (if so directed by our client). Site Remediation The ultimate goal of any site remediation program is site closure. Closure can be obtained by simple regulatory approval of current conditions warranting no further action; or by employing restoration activities until cleanup levels are obtained. Closure involves inter-relationships between regulatory agency (ies), responsible parties, and the community. Regulatory agency approval must be obtained that indicates the appropriate actions have been taken to effectively abate the release and/or liabilities or encumbrances related to the release have been limited. GEM uses a multi-disciplinary team of professionals to manage the restoration of sites impacted by environmental releases and provide cost-effective closure of a site. We design cost-effective alternatives for the storage, disposal, and cleanup of hazardous and low-level radioactive wastes. GEM's professionals are trained and responsive to regulatory and client's requirements. We advise them on critical decisions during each of the major stages of a restoration project. GEM is equally comfortable with turnkey approaches to site restoration following either Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) or Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) protocols subject to regulatory agency concurrence/approval. Remedial Operation and Maintenance GEM monitors remedial performance on a periodic basis to ensure a satisfactory remedial outcome. Remedial operation and maintenance often include system maintenance, waste management, groundwater monitoring, and periodic performance reporting to regulatory agencies. Closure Confirmation The ultimate goal in site restoration is to render the site clean or closed. However, like most aspects of site remediation, clean closure is subject to site-specific requirements set by regulatory agencies. GEM works closely with regulatory agencies to determine the definition of "clean closure" and "cleanup criteria" in the early stages of the site remediation project. In some cases, a closure confirmation investigation is required to demonstrate impacted soils and groundwater have been restored to regulatory standards. GEM provides all the necessary services to help render a site closed. Following demonstration of adequate remedial performance, GEM prepares the necessary documentation for site closure. GEM professional engineers can certify closure.
