PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Navajo-Gallup Water Supply Project Utilities Potholing Reaches 21 and Reach 2 Utility Potholing

(1) General The Navajo-Gallup Water Supply Project (NGWSP) design consists of two Reclamation design and construction branches (San Juan Lateral and Cutter Lateral) that are each divided into sections of unequal length called “Reaches”:

• The project’s western branch, the San Juan Lateral (SJL), begins approximately in Waterflow, NM at the PNM (Public Service Company of New Mexico) Reservoir, heads south to the N36 highway, then west/slightly southwest to the SJL Water Treatment Plant (WTP) at Lat: N36° 42' 08" Long: W108° 36' 06", then southwest until the pipeline will roughly parallel US Highway 491 south to Yah-ta-hey, NM.

• The project’s eastern branch, the Cutter Lateral, begins at Cutter Reservoir east of Blanco, NM and will roughly parallel San Juan County Road 7007 to existing tanks at Huerfano Mesa near Dzilth-Na-O-Dith- Hle, NM off US Highway 550.

Potholing of existing underground utilities for one (1) Reach on the Cutter Lateral and one (1) Reach on the San Juan Lateral is required under this requirement to allow for collection of survey data for design purposes:

1. Reach 21 Regulating Tank 3 is located at Lat: N36° 24' 25.5" Long: W107° 50' 18.8” and will be the location near the potholing needs. Utilities at the Reach 21 Regulating Tank 3 area are included in this requirement. See the attached Exhibits for additional information.

2. Reach 2 on the SJL, begins at the existing PNM Reservoir Pump House located at Lat: N36° 47' 09" Long:

W108° 26' 35", parallels County Road 6800 south, crossing NM Highway 64 and continues south across the San Juan River until it intersects with BIA Route N36. From this point Reach 2 ends and Reach 3 begins approximately 115 LF to the west on the north side of BIA Route N36 at Lat: N36° 43' 06" Long: W108° 27' 48".

Reach 2 is approximately 5.4 miles in length. Utility crossing conflict between the proposed Reach 2 pipeline alignment are included in this requirement. See the attached Exhibits for additional information.

(2) Performance Work Statement This work includes locating/verification followed by the potholing of existing utilities for Reach 21 and Reach 2. The contractor shall first have a Utility Locate Service verify each coordinate location in this requirement to ensure that the utility exists underground at each requested location. Once this step is complete, the contractor shall then use Air or Hydro-Excavation services to expose the top of the underground utility at each of the crossing locations identified in the following sections. The identified crossing conflicts are located north and east of the Reach 21 Regulating Tank 3 where water discharge is anticipated to intercept the underground utility and on the Reach 2 alignment that intersects with the Farmers Mutual Ditch pipeline.

(a) Utility Locate Verification Reclamation identified each crossing location based on data provided by utility owners in the area from a field verification. Reclamation will provide a wood lathe stake at each crossing location, to assist in the location verification of utilities. Coordinates of each crossing location are provided in the following sections.

The Utility Locate Verification is necessary to ensure successful potholing efforts with the Air or Hydro-Excavation services. This portion of the requirement is intended to be procured by the contractor and achieved using an

Underground Utility Locator instrument/system designed to detect and locate underground electric, telephone, cable TV, wastewater, gas and sewer lines, or other means as required to positively identify the utility. It may be the case that some underground (U.G.) utilities lack tracer wire, metallic components, or Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) locating devices and may require the use of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) or similar technologies to locate. The contractor can choose to locate manually, but this needs to be included in their quoted unit price.

Contractor shall investigate a minimum 20’ diameter area around the conflict/crossing locations listed. The existing marking provided by Reclamation shall be replaced by the utility locating contractor to confirm the location has been verified. If no underground utility could be verified, the contractor shall mark those locations differently and inform Reclamation and wait for direction on the path forward. It is unknown if the gas utility has been mapped and documented by the gas company. There is carsonite utility markers in the field that identify the centerline of the gas line. The 2-inch waterline has been mapped and documented. It is also unknown if the irrigation pipeline has been mapped and documented by the irrigation company.

(b) Potholing Method Air and/or Hydro-excavation is the preferred method for potholing those utility locations that are positively verified, as well as those that meet the criteria for excavation. The contractor shall be responsible for visiting the site(s) prior to performing work to verify that air and/or Hydro-excavation equipment can access the pothole locations. Potholing using a backhoe shall only be performed, with Reclamation’s prior approval, if the site proves to be inaccessible using air and/or Hydro-excavation equipment. Potholing is not required for communication cables/wires, and 2” Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) water service pipelines -- locating shall be acceptable from the use of only the GPR locator or similar device results. 4” Diameter utilities and larger shall require location and depth measurement through the use of hydro-excavation. The Crossing Locations List further clarifies this request.

Backfill of each pothole shall be completed following survey measurements, using surface soil gathered from around or near to the pothole location implementing a method to minimize ground surface disturbance. If the sufficient amount of backfill soil is not available following successful location and recording of the underground utility elevation the Hydro-excavation contractor shall be responsible for backfilling of all holes using dry fill obtained elsewhere, and/or temporarily marking the hole barricaded with cones or safety ribbon until the hole is filled to its original ground level.

Contractor will be responsible to provide water for their potholing method.

Contractor will also be responsible with the disposal of any waste material.

Reclamation will also provide to the awardee, if requested, additional information in support of utility locating:

• SHP/KMZ files.

• Township, Range, and Section information.

• Driving directions to each location.

• Available contact information for utility owners that are not part of the New Mexico (NM) One-Call system.

The contractor shall notify the respective utility owners, and request ground locates for each of the utilities at the crossing locations identified in the following sections if the provided information is not sufficient. The ground locates shall be of sufficient area coverage to vet any other utilities in the nearby area (200-foot radius of crossing location is suggested). Not all utility owners are part of the NM One-Call system. If a utility owner requires a representative to be on-site during excavation, the contractor shall coordinate with the utility owner to schedule their representative to be on site prior to performance of work. A copy of the One-Call documents will be provided to the awardee of this requirement by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR).

Anticipated crossing locations are provided below. Reclamation identified each crossing location based on data provided by utility owners in the area from a field verification. There is a potential for changes to locations, or the discovery of new locations during the Utility Location Verification. This list is subject to change.

(c) Additional Services

Additional Services are required services within the general scope of work to address “unforeseen” utility crossing conflicts that may be newly identified after the execution of this purchase order. The contractor shall perform these additional services only when requested by Reclamation by purchase order modification.

Prior to commencement of any “Additional Services”, the contractor shall submit a written proposal for Reclamation review and approval describing the work to be performed and include a “not to exceed” estimate of the cost.

(d) Crossing Locations

(i) Reach 21

Four (4) underground utilities in the area of this requirement labeled the Reach 21 shall be located per the coordinates identified in Table 1:

(4) Schedule Reclamation anticipates a total of 1-3 business days, and two (2) mobilization/demobilizations, are required to complete this work. The contractor shall verify this provide their anticipated schedule with their quote. The work shall begin and be completed in accordance with the terms of the purchase order:

• Contractor shall contact Reclamation within 5 business days after issuance of the purchase order to coordinate visitation and work dates.

The contractor shall coordinate order of work wherever it works most efficiently for them.

(5) Safety The contractor shall perform and submit to Reclamation a Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) in accordance with Reclamation Safety and Health Standards (RSHS) (https://www.usbr.gov/safety/rshs/index.html) Section 1.04 and Appendix 1.04 prior to commencing work. The JHA shall be submitted to the Reclamation COR a minimum of 7 calendar days prior to contractor’s planned mobilization to the job site. A sample JHA for utility potholing work is available electronically upon request to assist the contractor with development and approval at solicitation. The JHA shall meet Reclamation RSHS and be approved by Reclamation prior to the contractor mobilizing to the job site.

(6) Acceptable Criteria Potholes shall be of adequate size and depth to expose the top of the utility, to allow placement of survey grade Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment on the utility for measurement, and to allow for positive identification (size and type) of the utility. Reclamation Surveyors will record the following information for each utility crossing potholed:

a) The elevations of both the Top of the Utility (TOP) and the Existing Ground Surface (EGS).

b) The Latitude, Longitude, Northing and Easting, as close to the top/center of each utility as possible.

c) Verification of material, size, and type of utility.

After the Reclamation Surveyor records the required information, the recorded information will be initialed by both parties. The contractor shall then backfill the potholes. Onsite Government Representative (OGR) to verify all findings prior to equipment relocation to next site.

(7) Measurement and Payment

This requirement is aimed at the successful location of those utility conflicts which exist where the water channel will cross other existing utilities. An additional locate/verification effort is included in this requirement to ensure knowledge of the existence of those conflicts in question. Payment will be a direct reflection of successful location of all verified utility conflicts regardless of the number of holes dug for each crossing location. Reclamation requests that the interested bidders provide a price per locate that will account for all efforts necessary to provide the location and depth regardless of the utility. A bid form has been provided in Exhibit A which lists all requested locations and associated maximum pricing. Exhibit B is a vicinity map of the requested locations. Reclamation Surveyors will record the TOP and the EGS elevations at each pothole location to the nearest l/l0-foot.
