REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) For

SOIL REMEDIATION

Former Ungemach Pottery Village of Roseville, Muskingum County, Ohio

June 21, 2018

BACKGROUND

The Freddie J. Dixon Foundation (TFJDF) applied for and received a U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) FY 2017 Brownfield Cleanup Grant to address hazardous substance

contamination at the Former Ungemach Pottery Property. This Property is located at 26 Potters

Lane and East 1st Street in the Village of Roseville in an area of Ohio formerly referred to as ‘The

Pottery Capital of the World’. Moxahala Creek and its associated levee system are located

immediately adjacent to the east of the site. The attached Site Location Map shows the subject

Property situated within the Village of Roseville, Ohio.

The former Ungemach Pottery produced high quality ceramics and pottery between

1910 and 1997. During this time, off‐spec pottery/ceramics and remnant glazes were staged in

the northeastern portion of the Property prior to off‐site disposal. A comprehensive VAP Phase

II Property Assessment of the entire site was completed in 2008 by Brownfield Restoration

Group, LLC (BRG) under a Clean Ohio Assessment Fund (COAF) grant. The findings of the

assessment work indicate that lead from the waste staging portion of the former operations

has impacted the subsurface soil and ground water in this area of the site. Toxicity

Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) test results document that the soil contains

characteristically hazardous levels of lead contamination.

Currently, a 49 year old, 8,659 square foot single story building (slab‐on‐grade), used by

the Village to store service vehicles and equipment, occupies the southern portion of the

Property, which is not within the remediation area. The targeted remediation area is located in

a flat and relatively accessible area behind the building in the northeastern portion of the

Property. This RFP focuses specifically on the removal of lead‐contaminated soil near the

ground surface (0 to 2 ft.) in the waste accumulation area of the former pottery operations.

This remediation project is being conducted under the MOA‐Track of the Ohio EPA

Voluntary Action Program (VAP). Brownfield Restoration Group, LLC (BRG) is the Environmental

Consultant for this project. The Environmental Consultant will provide the VAP Certified

Soil Remediation RFP Former Ungemach Pottery

Village of Roseville, Muskingum County, Ohio June 21, 2018

S: phii/remediation documents/bid specifications

Professional supervision and an Environmental Geologist to oversee on‐site remedial activities

with respect to technical project objectives. The locations and limits of excavations will be

determined by the Environmental Consultant. As may be necessary, any confirmatory soil

sampling for the purpose of demonstrating compliance with VAP standards will be the

responsibility of the Environmental Consultant.

SCOPE OF WORK

In general, the scope of work will entail the excavation, transportation, and proper off‐

site disposal of soil found to exceed VAP direct contact standards for lead at a

commercial/industrial site. The soil remediation excavation will extend to a depth of two feet

below ground surface (i.e., the VAP point‐of‐compliance) in the area of the site delineated on

the attached figure – Proposed Soil Excavation (0‐2 Feet). Additional remediation site details

are provided in the attached figure – Cross Sections of Proposed Removal and Levee. Sampling

and analysis of the soil in this remediation area has indicated that the soil is characteristically

hazardous for lead content and must be handled and disposed of accordingly. The specific

elements of work to be performed by the selected Remediation Contractor are described in the

following task summaries:

General Requirements

Obtain and maintain a bid bond and a performance bond for the completion of the work

specified in this RFP;

Mobilize all equipment and personnel necessary to perform the specified work to the site;

Obtain, maintain, and implement the requirements of all necessary permits for the remediation

activities; and

Prepare and implement a site‐specific Health & Safety Plan. Site workers must be

HAZWOPER‐trained and current with their applicable certifications. The

Remediation Contractor will be responsible for the health and safety of its workers

and for securing the work site with respect to health and safety matters (e.g.,

providing a security fence and warning signs around all open excavations).

Soil Remedial Actions

Excavate soil to a depth of two feet at the designated remediation area as shown on attached

figure – Proposed Soil Excavation (0‐2 Feet). The approximate volume of the excavation area is

provided as follows:

Volume =Area x Depth

= 4,070 ft2 x 2.0 feet




= 8,140 feet3

= 302 yards3

Tons = 302 yards3 x 1.5 tons/ yards3

= 453 tons

Excavated soil must be live‐loaded (no staging on the property) and transported

to a facility licensed to accept lead‐contaminated hazardous waste.

Legible manifests and weigh tickets for each load of soil transported for disposal

from the site must be provided to the Environmental Consultant.

These estimated soil quantities are provided for reference purposes only and do not constitute a guarantee of final quantities, which may be greater or less than the estimated amount. BRG will field locate the horizontal limits of the area to be remediated and will confirm that the excavation depth requirement has been satisfied. Analytical results from the VAP Phase II Assessment and recent TCLP metals testing representative of soil from this area are provided at the following link http://bit.ly/2tgAKLo for reference. Any additional analyses necessary to complete waste characterization or profiles for disposal facilities will be the responsibility of the Remediation Contractor.

Concrete Slab/ Wall Removal

Portions of the soil remediation area are covered by a concrete slab, which must be

removed and properly disposed of as part of the remedial action. In addition, an ‘L‐shaped’

cinder block wall currently exists along the eastern edge of the remediation area. The

approximate dimensions of the wall are 4 ft. high by 53 ft. in length. This wall must be removed

down to grade and the demolition debris generated must be properly disposed of at a facility

licensed to accept this material. No testing of this concrete has been performed and any waste

profiling required by disposal facilities will be the responsibility of the Remediation Contractor.

Backfilling

The excavated area must be backfilled with clean soil (it will not be necessary to replace the

concrete that is removed).

The source of clean fill to be used at the site is subject to approval by BRG prior to acquisition

or transporting backfill to the site. Upon notification of a potential clean fill source by the

Remediation Contractor, BRG will investigate the fill source. If there is any reason to believe, at




the sole discretion of BRG, that the source of clean fill may have been impacted by petroleum

or hazardous substances, the source will be rejected for use on this project.

Provide an affidavit certifying the source of the fill and that the fill is clean with respect to

environmental contamination.

Acquire, transport, and place clean fill into the excavated area sufficient to return the

excavation area to the surrounding grade;

Provide legible weigh tickets for each load of clean fill placed on the site;

Backfilled excavations shall be completed with seed to prevent erosion and run‐off.

Site Control Measures

Provide all storm water controls measures as required by local and state

regulations;

Provide dust control measures to minimize dust generation [Note – the

Environmental Consultant will conduct dust monitoring. If standards are

exceeded, work will be stopped immediately and will not be permitted to

resume until adequate measures are implemented to mitigate the dust

generation.];

Trucks and equipment must be decontaminated prior to leaving the site to

ensure that contaminated soil is not tracked off‐Property; and

Secure the site at all times during the project to prevent unauthorized access to

the work zone during active remediation and deter trespasser access to the

excavation during non‐working hours (e.g., providing a security fence and

warning signs around all open excavations).
