SSPC-SP12 / NACE 5 Surface Preparation and Cleaning of Steel and Other Hard Materials by High- and Ultra High- Pressure Water Jetting Prior to Recoating This standard requires water jetting at high- or ultra high-pressure to prepare a surface for recoating using pressure above 10,000 psi. Water jetting will not produce a profile; rather, it exposes the original abrasive-blasted surface profile. Water jetting shall be performed to meet four conditions: WJ-1, WJ-2, WJ-3, and WJ-4, and a minimum acceptable surface shall have all loose rust, loose mill scale, and loose coatings uniformly removed. Refer to section 5.1.1 for further details. SSPC-SP13 / NACE 6 Surface Preparation of Concrete Provides requirements for surface preparation of concrete by mechanical, chemical, or thermal methods prior to the application of bonded protective coating or lining systems. SSPC-SP14 / NACE 8 Industrial Blast Cleaning Removal of all visible oil, grease, dust and dirt, when viewed without magnification. Traces of tightly adherent mil scale, rust, and coating residues are permitted to remain on 10% of each unit area of the surface if they are evenly distributed. Shadows, streaks, and discoloration caused by stains of rust, stains of mill scale, and stains of previously applied coating may be present on the remainder of the surface. 5.2.1 Surface Preparation Standards - Water Jetting SSPC-SP12 / NACE 5 Surface Preparation and Cleaning of Steel and Other Hard Materials by High- and Ultra High- Pressure Water Jetting Prior to Recoating This standard requires water jetting at high- or ultra high-pressure to prepare a surface for recoating using pressure above 10,000 psi. Water jetting will not produce a profile; rather, it exposes the original abrasive-blasted surface profile. The specifier shall use one of the visual surface preparation definitions (WJ-1 to WJ-4) and one of the non- visual surface preparation definitions (SC-1 to SC-3) to specify the degree of visible and non-visible surface matter to be removed. Pressure Categorization Low-Pressure Water Cleaning (LP WC) Cleaning performed at pressures less than 34 Mpa (5,000 psi) High-Pressure Water Cleaning (HP WC) Cleaning performed at pressures from 34 to 70 Mpa (5,000 to 10,000 psi) High-Pressure Water Jetting (HP WJ) Cleaning performed at pressures from 70 to 170 Mpa (10,000 to 25,000 psi) Ultrahigh-Pressure Water Jetting (UHP WJ) Cleaning performed at pressures above 170 Mpa (25,000 psi) Visual Conditions of Surface Cleanliness WJ-1 Surface shall be free of all previously existing visible rust, coatings, mill scale, and foreign matter and have a matte metal finish WJ-2 Surface shall be cleaned to a matte finish with at least 95% of the surface area free of all previously existing visible residues and the remaining 5% containing only randomly dispersed stains of rust, coatings, and foreign matter WJ-3 Surface shall be cleaned to a matte finish with at least two-thirds of the surface area free of all previously existing visible residues (except mill scale), and the remaining one-third containing only randomly dispersed stains of previously existing rust, coatings, and foreign matter WJ-4 Surface shall have all loose rust, loose mill scale, and loose coatings uniformly removed Non-Visual Conditions of Surface Cleanliness SC-1 Surface shall be free of all detectable levels of contaminants as determined using available field test equipment with sensitivity approximating laboratory test equipment.

The COR will approve all paint submittals. "Or equal" brands may be submitted for acceptance. Steel surfaces to be painted shall be carefully and thoroughly cleaned as dictated by the level of surface preparation requested in the task order and shall be thoroughly dry before any preservative coating is applied. The coating systems composed of the coating types and dry film thicknesses identified below, or equal, are required. While the following coating systems are recommended, the contractor may propose equivalent systems: Base Coat [self-priming---] Sherwin Williams, Black # 17038, Duraplate 2235, 6-8 MIL DFT Base Coat [self-priming---] Sherwin Williams, Black # 17038 TarGuard Coal Tar Epoxy, 8 MIL DFT Barrier Coat----Sherwin Williams, Black # 17038, TarGuard Coal Tar Epoxy, 8 MIL DFT Top Coat Sherwin Williams, Black #17038, Acrolon Ultra, 2-3 MIL DFT Top Coat ------ Sherwin Williams, Black #17038, Copper Bottom Anti-Fouling #45, 2-2.5 MIL DFT Top Coat on Draft Marks----Sherwin Williams, White # FS595 fade resistant urethane, 4 MIL DFT ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS Contractors must ensure containment and disposal of all waste generated during the project. Waste must be disposed of in accordance with EPA regulations. Some blast material may contain lead or chromium. The contractor must account for the disposal of this hazardous material. No waste of any kind is to enter the lake. If contamination occurs, it will be the contractor's responsibility for immediate remediation. The contractor and the Corps of Engineers representative will agree upon a bi-weekly clean-up day. All waste will be removed from the dry dock and immediate area. Waste and blast media will be removed from Government property on a bi-weekly basis. Fuel storage tanks must be double wall or stored in a spill containment pan capable of holding at least 10% of the tank volume. All paints/thinners or similar materials must be stored in a spill containment pan capable of holding at least 10% of the on hand volume. Paint and thinner inventory will be maintained by the contractor and available for the corps representative upon request Material Safety Data Sheets for all materials will be maintained on site and a copy will be provided to the COR. Empty paint/thinner buckets will be removed from the job site daily. Contractor will be responsible for performing lab analysis on paint/blast media waste within 10 days of the first day of sandblasting. Copies of these documents will be submitted to the Corps representative at that time. Sandblast media and paint quantities used must be submitted to the COR upon project completion. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS Contractors are required to adhere to Corps of Engineers safety policies. Safety information can be obtained from Rob Shover, Safety Officer, at 901-544-3601.
