Period of Performance: See Price/Cost Schedule

With the establishment of this contract, the Government may request additional Pest Control services outside the scope of this contract. Additional services may include occasional treatment in leased buildings within the healthcare system’s operational oversight.

Per VA Directive 6371 Appendix A-3, some of these additional services will not be billable to the contract but will be paid via Government Purchase Card (GPC), which shall not exceed $2,499.00 for each additional service. To support any additional services required, contractor shall provide price per service that will be inclusive of cost to include all labor, personnel, equipment, supplies, materials, supervision, and certifications/license. However, bed bug treatment shall be priced per the contract line item.

1.3 SPECIFICATIONS:

1.3.1 The contractor shall conform to all federal, state, and local regulations governing examining and licensing of pest control operators (PCO) for the performance of pest control operations, use of approved pest control chemicals and equipment, and proper disposal methods for all products/containers, which may be in effect for the area where the work under the contract will be performed.

1.3.1.1 Contractor shall be licensed in the state of Nevada to provide pest control services utilizing approved chemicals (see Chapter 555 - Control of Insects, Pests and Noxious Weeds – NRS 555.613 Fields of licensed primary principal commercial and governmental agency applicators; categories of licensed primary principal commercial applicators).

1.3.1.2 VHA pest management contractors are to be trained and qualified in specific categories as outlined in VHA Directive 1850.02 Pest Management Operations. The primary categories that require certification are (categories described in the implementing regulations, 40 CFR, Part 171.3, to Pub. L. 92- 516)

1.3.1.2.1 Category (3) – Ornamental, Turf, Nursery, Greenhouse, and Interior landscape.

Applicators must demonstrate practical knowledge of pesticide problems associated with the production and maintenance of ornamental trees, shrubs, plantings, and turf, including cognizance of potential toxicity due to a wide variety of plant material, drift, and persistence beyond the intended period of pest control. Due to the frequent proximity of human habitations to application activities, applicators in this category must demonstrate practical knowledge of application methods, which must minimize or prevent hazards to humans, pets, and other domestic animals.

1.3.1.2.2 Category (7) – General Pest Control, Industrial and Institutional. Applicators must demonstrate a practical knowledge of a wide variety of pests, including their life cycles, types of formulations appropriate for their control, and methods of application that avoid contamination of food, damage and contamination of habitat, and exposure of people and pets.
