The Officer in Charge is SEEKING QUALIFIED SOURCES to solicit for the recycling of septum plates with wool felt attached, including the containers to put the material in under an as-yet unnumbered solicitation. The work shall include: providing containers (roll-off type, 20-40 cubic yard capacity, crane capable) equipped with lockable metal canopy's to prevent physical access to the bin's contents for the Government to fill with PCB contaminated septum plates with wool felt attached. The Contractor must have the proper permits required to remove and dispose of this material. The waste stream is designated as a combination waste. It is above 50 ppm PCB and it fails Toxic Characteristic Leachment Procedure for Chrome. Therefore, Hazardous Waste regulations and TSCA PCB regulations must be met in the disposal of this waste. If a disposal technology other than those identified in 40 CFR 761.65 is used (i.e., incineration), a permit for an laternate disposal method is required. A copy of the permit verifying the suggested technology will be required to be provided to the Government. Septum plates and wool felt have been removed from various ships/submarines as part of the dismantlement process. The septum plates are typically mild steel with an average thickness of 1/4 inch and average weight of 10.2 lbs/ft2. Some of the septum plates are aluminum, or Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP). Wool felt is impregnated with a non-drying, thermal resistant resin, which is high in PCBs and over years of use has leached into the pores of the septum plates. The wool felt was also spiked with chrome which requires its disposal in accordance with Hazardous Waste regulations. Sound Damping 'Wool' felt specifications are identified by Military Specification MIL-G-20241D, Gasket material, Wool Felt, Impregnated, Adhesives, Pressure-Sensitive. Estimated yearly generation is approximately 180,000 lbs.
