Questions and Answers

1. We are actively collaborating with our partners to gather precise important information to meet the government’s requirements comprehensively. To ensure thorough and effective communication, Could you please provide additional details or guidance on the specific types of testing required.

This information will allow us to fulfill all requirements with accuracy and clarity. We greatly appreciate your cooperation in considering this request.

a. See the following information and the amended statement of work in reference to this question.

Our prior contractor used PACE Analytical Services in Beaver, WV and typically used a courier from the company. There are other lab companies which can be used, however, the contractor should check with us prior to selecting a lab. The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection maintains a list of approved lab companies and the company chosen must be on that list.

The lab will complete their testing of the sample and send a report of their findings to the contractor. The contractor must pay for the testing. The contractor must also provide a copy of the analysis to the Forest Service. This can also be arranged through the lab company—PACE sent the results form the previous contractor's samples direct to me. This report must be given to the Forest Service so we can file our quarterly report with the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection to prove our waste water treatment unit is being properly maintained. This allows us to keep the permit for the operation of the waste water unit.
