Any contractor doing business with the State will be required to document compliance and to specify prudent practices used by the contractor to address applicable mandates including, but not restricted to "the hazard communication standard" OSHA CFR 1910.1200 (SCRR Article 1,711910.1200).

Purchase orders may be used to elect any options available under this contract, e.g., quantity, item, delivery date, payment method, but are subject to all terms and conditions of this contract.

PROTECTION OF HUMAN HEALTH AND THE ENVIRONMENT. The amended remedy selected in this Amendment #2 will adequately protect human health and the environment through treatment, engineering controls, and/or institutional controls. Filter cake and shallow contaminated soils will be removed from OU1 and be taken off-site for disposal in a RCRA Subtitle C or D landfill. Additionally, ITR will be used to reduce mass concentrations in contaminated shallow soil and groundwater. Groundwater will be treated through EAB, continued operation of the GETS, and continued wellhead treatment at Well 12A. A contaminant mass discharge reduction of 90% from the source area is expected which will substantially reduce the mass transport of COCs to the groundwater. All of these measures will reduce the risks to human and ecological receptors to protective levels for the long term. They are not expected to cause unacceptable short-term risks or cross-media impacts. This is an interim remedy for groundwater that will ultimately be followed by a final remedy. Consistent with the RAOs, opportunities may be sought during the implementation of the remedy to reduce its environmental footprint as defined in U.S. EPA Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response Principles for Greener Cleanups (▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/oswer/greencleanups/principles.html).

Without limiting Purchaser’s responsibilities hereunder, B&R has the right but not the obligation to, from time to time, review, audit and inspect applicable health, safety, security and environmental documentation, procedures and conditions at the Site. (c) If, in B&R’s reasonable opinion, the health, safety, or security of personnel or the Site is, or is likely to be, imperiled by security risks, the presence of or threat of exposure to hazardous material, or unsafe working conditions, B&R may, in addition to other rights or remedies available to it, remove some or all of its personnel from Site, suspend performance of all or any part of the purchase order, and/or remotely perform or supervise work. Any such occurrence shall be considered a force majeure event. Purchaser shall reasonably assist in ensuring the safe departure of personnel from the Site. (d) Purchaser shall not require or permit B&R’s personnel to operate Purchaser’s equipment at (e) Purchaser will make its Site medical facilities and resources reasonably available to B&R personnel who need medical attention.

Prior to B&R starting any work at Site, Purchaser will provide documentation that identifies the presence and condition of any hazardous material existing in or about Purchaser’s equipment or the Site that B&R may encounter while performing under this Agreement. The provision of such documentation shall in no way release Purchaser from its responsibility for said conditions.

Purchaser shall keep B&R informed of changes in any such conditions (i) B&R shall promptly notify Purchaser if B&R becomes aware of: (i) conditions at the Site differing materially from those disclosed by Purchaser, or (ii) previously unknown physical conditions at Site differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Agreement. If any such conditions cause an increase in B&R's cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work under the Agreement, an equitable adjustment in price and schedule shall be made. (g) If B&R encounters hazardous material in Purchaser’s equipment or at the Site that require special handling or disposal, B&R is not obligated to continue work affected by the hazardous conditions. In such an event, Purchaser shall at its sole cost and expense eliminate the hazardous conditions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations so that B&R’s work under the Agreement may safely proceed, and B&R shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment of the price and schedule to compensate for any increase in B&R’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the work.
