1.0 SCOPE

1.1 OBJECTIVE

The objective of this contract is to acquire contractor services to provide above and below ground utility investigation and locating services. This work will support final design of approximately 16 miles of water conveyance pipeline and a water treatment facility located in Pueblo and Crowley counties in Colorado.

1.2 BACKGROUND

The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) is the largest wholesaler of water in the country. Reclamation brings water to more than 31 million people and provides one out of five western farmers with irrigation water for 10 million acres of farmland that produce 60% of the nation's vegetables and 25% of its fruits and nuts.

The Arkansas Valley Conduit (AVC) is a major infrastructure project that upon completion will convey a reliable municipal and industrial water supply from Pueblo

Reservoir to 40 communities serving a projected future population of 50,000 people in southeastern Colorado. The service area includes water providers in Bent, Crowley, Kiowa, Otero, Prowers, and Pueblo counties. When completed, the AVC will supply as much as 7,500 acre-feet annually to these communities.

These areas are dependent on groundwater supplies that are in many cases contaminated by naturally occurring radionuclides such as radium and uranium, or by direct influence of surface water that contains harmful microorganisms and pollutants. These communities increasingly face expensive alternative remedies such as reverse-osmosis, ion exchange, filtration, and bottled water. A reliable source of clean, safe water is needed for the area’s health and welfare.

The Crowley Reach (CR) is the second major segment of AVC pipe starting at the end of the Boone Reach (BR) and following Colorado State Highway 96 (CO-96) east for approximately 16 miles – including a branch to a regulating tank site about a half mile north of CO-96. See reference maps in Appendix A.

More information on Reclamation and the AVC Project can be found online at www.usbr.gov and www.usbr.gov/gp/ecao/avc/.

1.3 GENERAL SCOPE BOUNDARIES

The scope of this contract covers the entire CR pipe alignment corridor, the regulating tank site, and some additional areas included for design flexibility. Maps in Appendix A provide the approximate alignment and locations. The scope is further defined in Section

3.

If the Contractor is uncertain at any time of the intended contract scope, they shall stop work and notify the COR to obtain clarification and direction.

1.4 DEFINITIONS AND TERMS

See Appendix B for a list of acronyms and abbreviations used in this document.

Working days: Days counted as number of weekdays (Monday – Friday) minus recognized Federal Holidays. Recognized Federal Holidays can be found here:

https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/federal-holidays/.

Acceptable Quality Level (AQL): The number of defects or maximum percentage of defects that may occur before the Government will affect the price computation system in accordance with the Performance Requirements Summary Table and the Inspection of

Services Clause. An AQL does not allow a contractor to knowingly offer defective services, but limits reduced payments to circumstances in which defective performance results in a measurable reduction in the value of services rendered.

Contractor: The individual, partnership, company, or corporation responsible for the duties and responsibilities under the contract. The term also covers requirements for any subcontractor. The Contractor is ultimately responsible for ensuring that all subcontractors comply with the terms and conditions of the contract.

Required Submittal Number (RSN): Refers to a deliverable required from the

Contractor and references to the required submittals table in Section 5.0.

ASCE 38: The standard for defining the quality of an underground facility location as defined in the current edition of the American Society of Civil Engineers' "Standard

Guideline for the Collection and Depiction of Existing Subsurface Utility Data (CI/ASCE

38-02)".

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE): A branch of engineering practice that involves managing certain risks associated with utility mapping at appropriate quality levels, utility coordination, utility relocation design and coordination, utility condition assessment, communication of utility data to concerned parties, utility relocation cost estimates, implementation of utility accommodation policies, and utility design.

Utility Quality Level: A professional opinion of the quality and reliability of utility information. Such reliability is determined by the means and methods of the professional.

Utility Quality Level A (QLA): Generally, QLA indicates the precise horizontal and vertical location of utilities obtained by the actual exposure and subsequent measurement of subsurface utilities, usually at a specific point.

Utility Quality Level B (QLB): Generally, QLB indicates information obtained through the application of appropriate surface geophysical methods to determine the existence and approximate horizontal position of subsurface utilities.

https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/federal-holidays/

Utility Quality Level C (QLC): Generally, QLC indicates information obtained by surveying and plotting visible above-ground utility features and by using professional judgment in correlating such information to QLD information.

Utility Quality Level D (QLD): Generally, QLD indicates information derived from existing records and oral recollections.
