The contractor must provide all labor, management, supervision, tools, materials, and equipment to continuously operate, maintain, and repair the wastewater collection system 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
The statement establishes recurring work requirements including system operation with 99.9 percent annual uptime availability, preventive maintenance programs, inspection protocols, and other recurring services. Core operational responsibilities encompass managing sewage holding tanks, lift stations, pumps, screens, oil/water separators, filters, chemical and biological treatment systems, and automatic controls. The contractor must employ certified wastewater operators holding class level 2 certification from Washington DC or reciprocal states, with personnel entering confined spaces requiring applicable OSHA training. Preventive maintenance must follow manufacturers' recommendations and ASME, WEF, and NASSCO standards, with incidental repairs up to $250 per occurrence included in the firm fixed price contract. The contractor is responsible for all fees, fines, and penalties resulting from discharge permit violations. Specialized services include sewage pipeline slip-lining using CIPP methods, manhole and wet well restoration with epoxy coatings, pipeline cleaning with high-velocity hydro-jetting, and wet well pumping and cleaning. The contractor must submit monthly operating records, daily electronic status updates to the Contracting Officer's Representative, preventive maintenance schedules, inspection reports with CCTV footage in NMCI-compatible formats, and various compliance documentation. Non-recurring work may be ordered through task orders or DoD FedMall with performance standards aligned to recurring work requirements. The contract specifies that wastewater exiting buildings remains the facility's responsibility under a separate contract, while utility locates and service order responses fall under different agreements.
