C.1.1 BACKGROUND

The Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region, Lower Colorado Dams Office (LCDO), has a requirement for the repair/remanufacture, machine/rehabilitate existing Hydro Plant related components. These Hydro Plant components may vary from items such as the generator, turbine, elevators, cranes, water passage valves and gates, barricades and basically any component found in a fully functioning hydroelectric power house and dam facility.

Work tasks may require manufacture of new components, re-design and reverse engineer replacement components, and/or furnish new hydroelectric turbine and generator-components to replace existing worn components. This includes large valves, operators, bearing components, water passage gates and any component that wears or needs upgrading.

Types of components include, but may not be limited to: wicket gates, stator/pole wedge bars, wicket gate bushings, wear plates, engineered fasteners, retaining bolts, break-off screws, large diameter valves, valve bodies and leafs, large diameter strength coupling studs and nuts, and thrust bearing key bars, bearing brackets, shift rings, stator bars, laminations, insulation, and other generator & turbine components.

In addition, for components too large to transport for repair, the contractor shall also provide onsite repair/machining. Repair, machining, field service, and technical support work performed onsite shall be subject to Construction Wage Rate Requirements prevailing wage rates. For any on-site work, the task orders will identify the need for a site specific safety plan, job hazard analysis, hazmat and special work permit, and security clearances.

Each year, Hoover Dam performs a major maintenance overhaul “teardown” on one of its 17 hydro turbine-generator units. There are nominal dimensional and configuration variations among the turbine-generators, but the basic design layout, assortment of parts and teardown procedures are consistent throughout.

Principal features of the work include, but are not limited to:

1. Provide, weld, and repair fatigued, worn, or water-damaged hydro turbine-generator parts to precision dimensions and tolerances of Hoover Dam design.

2. Provide precision fabrication of new replacement parts per Hoover Dam design.

3. Provide reverse-engineering to include 3-dimensional digitizing and computer-aided repair or replacement manufacture of existing Hoover Dam hardware.

Solicitation No. 140R3019R0001

4. Provide industry standard inspection and testing.

5. Self-perform machining work at the contractor’s facility or onsite at Hoover Dam as required in task orders.

The cost of attending site visits shall be included in the price for each task order or otherwise shall be included in the contractor’s G&A/overhead.

It is recommended that a visit to the site of the work be made prior to preparing an offer in order to perform investigations as to the existing conditions affecting the work to be done under these specifications. If the contractor chooses not to visit the site or conduct investigations, the contractor will never the less be charged with knowledge of conditions which reasonable inspections and investigations would have disclosed.

Prospective offerors and the contractors shall assume all responsibility for deductions and conclusions as to the difficulties in performing the work.

C.2.17 LEAD BASED PAINT

Lead Based Paint (LBP) exists in several locations throughout the Lower Colorado Dams Structures and buildings. LBP may be found in paints used before 1978. In the event that the contracted activity disturbs any painted surfaces the task order will identify if it contains LBP.

The contractor is responsible for PPE, monitoring their employees for lead exposure, installation of controls, and waste disposal.

The work scope of each task order will define whether LBP exists or is assumed to exist on the components being worked on. The contractor must follow OSHA and Reclamation guidelines and define what approach will be used to prevent incident lead exposure. All surfaces to be welded must be free of LBP. The preferred method of localized BCP removal is by chemical stripping the LBP in those areas requiring cutting, welding or machining. Sanding, scrapping, blasting and chipping will not be allowed without an approved LBP plan.

C.2.18 GOVERNMENT AND CONTRACTOR FURNISHED FACILITIES

During performance of work under the task orders, the following Government facilities may be made available to the contractor at no charge for use in the performance of work under these specifications.
