The Intel Construction EHS Processes and Procedures Manual establishes minimum Environmental Health
and Safety (EHS) performance expectations of construction contractors working on Intel sites worldwide.
Overview
The following processes and procedures define Intel’s expectations that meet and in some cases exceed
the most stringent Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) laws worldwide.
Intel provides a copy of this EHS Processes and Procedures Manual (herein referred to as the “Manual”)
to all firms who receive a bid award. The contract that follows a bid award indicates that the firm is
responsible for knowing and complying with the information provided in this Manual. Intel expects these
performance requirements to be understood prior to work commencing, be included in a project specific
EHS Plan and be strictly complied with.
Intel constantly strives to meet or exceed all applicable laws and regulations in the communities in which
we live and work.

SECTION 5.3: POLLUTION PREVENTION/ENVIRONMENTAL INCIDENT RESPONSE PLAN (PPEIRP)
5.3.1. PPEIRP - PURPOSE
The purpose of this Pollution Prevention/Environmental Incident Response Plan (PPEIRP) is
to provide guidance for procedures, methods and equipment used to prevent the discharge
of pollutants and hazardous substances into air, water, or soil, and to protect health and
well-being of personnel on-site and the local community in the event of an incident. This
guidance specifies the criteria upon which a site specific incident response plan should be
based.
This plan is also a training reference for Emergency Coordinators and Emergency Response
Teams. The General Contractor/Construction Manager must create a site specific plan that
designates an Emergency Coordinator.

5.3.9. PPEIRP - INCIDENT RESPONSE SUPPLIES
The plan should evaluate each of the potential hazardous material storage areas and
establish the location and contents of appropriate response and clean-up supplies. These
materials typically include absorbent booms and pads, oil dry, personal protective
equipment, clean-up tools, simple chemical detection equipment such as pH paper,
absorbent wipes, heavy duty waste bags, labels, caution tape, etc. Specific items and
inventories will be dictated by the hazards and quantities of chemicals in the area. It is
recommended that the types of hazards for each area be discussed in the plan, and a specific
inventory sheet for each response kit be included as an attachment. At a minimum,
response kits will be required in each of the designated hazardous materials and hazardous
waste storage areas depicted on the plan’s diagram. At least one of the incident response
kits should be able to be moved to an incident which occurs anywhere on-site; ideally the
unit will be pallet mounted or otherwise mobile.

EHS Processes and Procedures Manual Page 64 of 104 Rev. 10 June 2019
Plan must also be maintained/updated on-site for the duration of the project. Each project
will follow the site Master Plan and incorporate any federal or state laws, property sale
agreements (e.g., warranty deeds) and/or local ordinances as necessary into the project
(e.g., tree mitigation measures, endangered species concerns, storm water easements,
etc.).
Each contractor/subcontractor is responsible for the wastewater from construction and
ensuring all storm water and wastewater regulations for local, state and federal government
are met. The General Contractor/Construction Manager is responsible for storm water
discharges and implementing site programs with its subcontractors to facilitate compliance
with this guideline, including Best Management Practices (BMPs) and minimum
performance. The General Contractor/Construction Manager may need to establish storm
water and wastewater control facilities and inspections. The following are activities that
generate wastewater and are subject to the requirements of this document:
a. Dust control
b. Clearing, grading and excavating
c. Fire-fighting activities
d. Truck wheel wash
e. Wash out of concrete trucks, building, other structures
f. Equipment cleaning
g. Cleaning of painting equipment
h. Pipe and process support equipment pressure testing
i. Pipe and equipment flushing and passivation
j. Dewatering subsurface soils
k. Protect storm drain trenches from penetration of debris and liquids.
The GC will have a review with the Intel Site Environmental Engineer prior to any submittal
for a NPDES or other water permits.
Water that comes in contact with the surface of the construction site as a result of
precipitation (e.g., rain, snow, hail, ice) is considered as storm water associated with
construction activity and also is subject to the requirements of this procedure.
The following are examples of construction related activities that either generate
wastewater or storm water discharge that could potentially have an undesired
environmental effect on water quality:
l. Earth works (excavate, pile, fill, scrape, etc.)
m. Washing and clean out of mobile equipment (truck wheel wash, wash out of concrete
cement trucks, etc.)
n. Washing and cleaning of structures, roads and chemical/paint application equipment
(pressure washing outside of buildings, wash down pavement, cleanout of sprayers
and paint brushes)
o. Application of water to control the generation of dust from earth and aggregate traffic
routes
p. Leak testing, flushing, passivation of process support equipment and pipes (fire
protection, water supply, hot water and steam, ultra-pure water,
condenser/cooling/chiller water, wastewater, sanitary wastewater, storm drains)
q. Dewatering water associated with construction activities.
r. Metal dust and shards from cutting.

5.5.4. WSWMP - SITE PREPARATION AND EARTH WORK
Erosion and sediment control plans are required to be prepared and submitted to the local
building officials for approval before site clearing, preparation or earth work can begin. At a
minimum, the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan conforming to the provision of the
NPDES requirements of the 2017 EPA Construction general permit must be met and shall be
evaluated during inspections. Key elements include:
a. Erosion control measures - vegetative buffers, mulching, netting/mats/blankets,
temporary seeding, permanent seeding, sod stabilization on stock or spoil piles of dirt;
cuts into the sides of earth embankments and sloping earth surfaces.
b. Sediment controls - silt fencing, straw bales/bio bales, sediment traps, sediment
basins, storm inlet protection, drainage swales, check dams, contour furrows,
terracing, pipe slope drains, rock outlets to protect the sediment from entering into
creeks, rivers, lakes, storm sewers or drainage ditches.
c. Erosion and sediment control measures shall be used as necessary for run-off and
run-on.
d. Erosion and sediment control measures shall as a minimum be inspected once a week
between storm events and daily during and immediately following storm events. A
log shall be kept recording the inspections including:

5.5.6. WSWMP - WASHING OF STRUCTURES AND SMALL EQUIPMENT
Posted in a conspicuous location, exterior structure washing, as final cleaning or sealant or
coating preparation, in addition to sealant or coating equipment cleaning, generates
wastewater. Key elements to be addressed are:
a. Washing and cleanout areas and usage procedure have been communicated to truck
drivers
b. The wastewater cannot be discharged into municipal sanitary, industrial or storm
sewer system and will not come into contact with soil
c. The wastewater cannot be disposed of on the ground if it causes stains or
discoloration
d. Water based paint waste and clean up liquids shall be placed in containers, with
remaining liquids shipped off-site
e. Waste liquids containing petroleum or oil based cleaners, solvents and mineral spirits
shall be placed in approved containers and managed as a waste for off-site.
See Appendix Y: Area Preparation For Small Equipment Washing & Cleaning Checklist.
5.5.7. WSWMP - PASSIVATION, LEAK TESTING AND FLUSHING OF PROCESS SUPPORT SYSTEMS
Passivation, leak testing and flushing prior to placing equipment and piping into service
generates wastewater. The equipment is associated with:
a. Fire protection
b. Potable water
c. Ultra-pure water
d. Boiler hot water/steam
e. Chilled water
f. Condenser/cooling tower
g. Wet scrubber
h. Wastewater collection/treatment.
To ensure proper wastewater management, the Contractor must consider the following
prior to performing passivation, leak testing and flushing activities:
i. Understand the volume of wastewater and the rate produced since it can be very high
j. Determine physical wastewater provisions and necessary approval(s) for wastewater
if it is being discharged to local sanitary sewer system
k. Comprehend any detergents, biocides, corrosion inhibitors or other chemicals in the
wastewater
l. If discharged to the sanitary sewer, the discharge must be approved by Construction
or Site EHS and may require testing prior to discharge
m. Treatment may be required prior to discharge but dilution is not an acceptable
treatment.
Many sites have “Flush Permits” that are required for construction related wastewater
discharges including those discussed above as well as tool install/qualification, etc.
See Appendix Z: Area Preparation For Leak Testing, Flushing & Passivation Of Systems
Checklist.
Intel Construction
EHS Processes and Procedures Manual Page 69 of 104 Rev. 10 June 2019
Contractors must be familiar with and act in accordance with site flush permit requirements
prior to any wastewater discharge.
Local conditions, excavation depth and type/use of the structure to be built below grade
determine if temporary or permanent dewatering is needed. Consider:
n. Any preexisting conditions that contaminated the site's groundwater; the options for
the water management may be limited
o. State or local requirements may require permitting and dictate water storage and
disposal
p. Adequate provisions to store and discharge the water without causing on-site or off-
site flooding, erosion and sediment control issues
q. If dewatering of subsurface solids is required, there is a place to pump water for on-
site retention or off-site disposal.

PRIOR TO THE SHIPMENT OF CHEMICALS TO THE SITE FOR APPLICATION, THE GENERAL
CONTRACTOR/CONSTRUCTION MANAGER WILL VERIFY THAT:
1. Intel has approved the use of the chemical, as indicated by a Hazardous Material
Information Sheet showing approval for this specific use of the chemical.
2. If the chemical must be applied only by trained and licensed/permitted individuals,
obtain a copy of the permit for each individual who will be applying the chemical
and submit a copy to the General Contractor/Construction Manager.
3. Check wind speed and direction. The chemicals should not be applied when the wind
is blowing and there is a threat to sensitive receptors (e.g., employees, residents, local
creeks, lakes, estuaries, wetlands or protected flora or fauna, etc.).
4. Check weather forecast. The chemicals should not be applied when it is raining or
when rain is forecasted and there is a threat to sensitive receptors (e.g., employees,
residents, local creeks, lakes, estuaries, wetlands or protected flora or fauna, etc.).
5. Read and understand all instructions for the application of the chemical. The

APPENDIX H: SURFACE PREPARATION AND COATING CHECKLIST
EXAMPLE
PRIOR TO THE SHIPMENT OF CHEMICALS OR OTHER MATERIALS TO BE USED FOR SURFACE PREPARATION
OR COATING TO THE SITE, THE GENERAL CONTRACTOR/CONSTRUCTION MANAGER WILL VERIFY:
1. Intel has approved the use of the chemical, as indicated by a Hazardous Material
Information Sheet showing approval for this specific use of the chemical.
2. Ensure that sheeting material or other protective measures have been set in place to
separate the work area from the rest of the site. Ensure that this has been
established in a manner to prevent dust that is generated during bead/sand blasting,
or over spray from painting activities, from traveling beyond the immediate work
area.
3. Check wind speed and direction. Surface preparation and coating activities that are
being performed outside and not within enclosed areas should not be performed
during windy conditions. This depends on the activity being performed, the chemicals
being used, strength of the wind and the location and distance from the work area to
the sensitive receptors (e.g., employees, residents, local creeks, lakes, estuaries,
wetlands or protected flora or fauna, etc.).

APPENDIX J: DEMOLITION OPERATIONS CHECKLIST
EXAMPLE
(The demolition of buildings, tanks, piping systems, etc. can often result in the release of air
pollutants. Depending on the age of the building, the materials of construction could contain
asbestos or lead-based paint. Depending on the chemicals [if any] used, the duct work or pipes may
contain residual chemicals of concern [e.g., arsenic in duct work, solvent or petroleum vapors in
pipes]. Tanks [above, below and in-ground] also may contain materials which can release vapors or
pose a potential hazardous situation when being removed)
4. Required control measures must be identified and put in place prior to starting work.
Sand / shot / bead blasting of metal (interior/exterior) tanks, heavy equipment and steel structures
generates spent abrasive material and removed rust and paint chips. The paint being removed may
contain lead, requiring that additional steps be taken to prevent the release of these materials into
the atmosphere and onto the ground/surface waters. Prior to removal of any paint/primer a
determination needs to be made whether the materials to be removed contain lead.

Where applicable the following activities will be implemented to encourage source reduction:
1. Alter purchasing practices to reduce waste. Wherever possible, buy supplies in bulk
and closely monitor unused supplies.
2. In landscaping design, avoid unnecessary clearing of trees. Chip roots and branches
on-site.
3. Specify in purchase orders that suppliers deliver goods with a minimum of packaging,
or require suppliers to remove and handle packaging after delivery (unless packaging
reuse value is high).
4. Minimize excessive materials used, optimize use of purchased materials.
5. Use framing components manufactured off-site.
6. Reuse excess lumber in the construction process.

EHS Processes and Procedures Manual Page 96 of 104 Rev. 10 June 2019
APPENDIX T: DETERMINING SOLID WASTE M ANAGEMENT RETURN ON INVESTMENT
EXAMPLE
1. Locate markets for wood, asphalt, concrete products, aluminum, ferrous metal, other
non-ferrous metal, sheetrock, land clearing waste, plastics, paper and cardboard.
Determine current unit prices and product specifications required for scrap and
resale. Contact waste exchanges in the local area to determine needs for these
materials.
2. Contact local landfill disposal sites for current rates. Determine raw materials likely
to be re-used on the construction site.
3. Estimate labor, material, equipment, hauling, and disposal costs and revenues from
reuse and sold recycled materials by waste material type. The following equation can
be used to determine which waste products can be recovered economically.
[Labor$ + Material$ + Equipment$ + Hauling$ - Disposal Cost$ < Market Price]
For re-use of raw materials, cost would be determined as replacement cost.
4. Determine if waste material will contain any Hazardous Materials per the Hazardous
Material Control Plan. If no hazardous materials are contained within the solid waste
material, go to step 6.
If hazardous materials are within the solid waste, determine if these materials meet
the definition of hazardous waste per the Hazardous Waste Management Plan. If the
solid waste does not contain hazardous waste, go to step 6.
5. If the solid waste material contains hazardous waste, process the hazardous waste in
accordance with the Hazardous Waste Management Plan.
6. Issue purchase orders and contracts for construction solid waste processing, storage
(roll-off boxes, bins), transportation, end-use markets and final disposal.
