Industry comments received will be consolidated and reviewed to determine whether any edits will be included to the following current Performance Work Statement (PWS) for this requirement:1.0 CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS1.1 BACKGROUNDThe Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge and Battle of Midway National Memorial (NWR) is located in the North Central Pacific Ocean at 28 degrees 12 minutes north latitude and 177 degree 22 minutes west longitude. It is about 1,250 miles west-northwest of Honolulu, Hawaii. As a distinct US possession, it is the only land mass in the Hawaiian Island archipelago that is not part of the State of Hawaii. Midway Atoll including all waters to 12nautical miles surrounding the atoll are owned and administered by the U.S. Department of Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service). Midway Atoll also lies within the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument which is administered by three co-trustees - the Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the State of Hawaii. The Service is the agency that has jurisdiction over Midway Atoll. For purposes of this contract, when referring to state and local regulations, the Contractor shall be required to follow state regulations for the state of Hawaii so long as it does not interfere with Federal law. Midway Atoll is home to remarkable wildlife - over 3 million birds of 21 different species and a diversity of other marine life use the atoll and surrounding waters year-round. Midway Atoll is the largest albatross nesting colony in the world with more than 1.3 million individuals of three species visiting November through September each year to lay eggs and raise their chicks to fledging. Midway Atoll also played a notable role in human history from its first settlement in the early 1900's through its many years as a U.S. Navy base. Its significance and the sacrifice of the U.S. soldiers, sailors, Marines and Coast Guardsmen in the final outcome of World War II in the Pacific have been recognized by the additional designation of the Refuge land and water area as the Battle of Midway National Memorial.Midway Atoll NWR was established in April, 1988 by Cooperative Agreement between the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service). Following its closure under the Base Realignment and Closure Act of 1990, Midway was transferred to the Department of Interior on October 31, 1996 when President Clinton signed Executive Order 13022.Today, Midway Atoll NWR functions as one of over 500 National Wildlife Refuges that comprise the National Wildlife Refuge System. Its retention of many of the military facilities that were constructed on the island is not unique within the system, but retention of a fully functional FAA Part 139 certified airport makes it unlike any other refuge. Its location within the Pacific Ocean makes Midway vital to commercial airlines flying twin engine commercial jets across the Pacific Ocean. Those Trans-Pacific jets are required to have emergency landing access to an airport en route, and Henderson Field on Midway Atoll serves that function. The added infrastructure and cost that stem from that requirement are substantial and complex. Midway Atoll is also a fully functioning wildlife refuge with a vital and growing biological program with numerous ongoing, long-term habitat restoration, and species monitoring and research projects.1.2 ISLAND ACTIVITYMidway's annual activity may be grouped into three main elements: 1) refuge programs consisting of biological monitoring, habitat restoration, visitor services as funding and support capabilities allow, and Battle of Midway National Memorial commemoration; 2) infrastructure operations and maintenance (including building, structure and historic property construction, rehabilitation, restoration and demolition); and 3) airport capital improvements and operations. Full-time Service employees and volunteers work on the refuge programs throughout the year and the Service hosts a variety of other partner and contracted workers for a variety of programs and projects. Nearly all of the infrastructure maintenance, and airfield operations are conducted by a Base Operations Support Services Contractor (referred to as the BOSS contractor) hired by the Service specifically for those purposes.2.0 PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT2.1 MOBILIZATION AND TRANSITION/DEMOBILIZATION2.2.1 The Contractor shall provide an annual management evaluation and assessment report with the same categories and structure as the Quarterly performance report (CDRL B001). This report will provide management trend analysis and recommendations for any systemic improvements for systems/processes (CDRL B002). Contractor format will be acceptable, but it must include categories needed for Service and FAA reports (i.e. US Coast Guard Fuel usage, Refuge Annual Performance Plan, Refuge Management Information, Service's Asset Maintenance Management System, Vehicle Fuel Use Report, Energy Report, Safety Report, Real Property Inventory, etc.). The Service Refuge Manager will verify the BOSS contract Project Manager has included the required information in the Quarterly and Annual Reports.2.1.1.1 Upon award of the contract, the Contractor shall assume all responsibilities on October 1, 2016 with one (1) month to become fully operational.
