STATEMENT OF WORK

PART 1

GENERAL INFORMATION

1.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION

MSHA’s mission within the Department of Labor (DOL) is to protect the safety and health of the nation’s miners under the mandates of the (Mine Act) as amended by the (MINER Act) to enforce compliance with mandatory safety and health standards as a means to eliminate fatal accidents; to reduce the frequency and severity of nonfatal accidents; to minimize health hazards, and to promote improved safety and health conditions in the nation's 14,000 mines.

As a regulatory organization, MSHA’s jurisdiction includes the nation’s mining industry which consists of coal, metal, and nonmetal mines, including both underground and surface operations.

Currently there are over 2,000 coal mines and 12,000 metal/nonmetal mines located in the U.S.

More than 300,000 people work directly in the mining sector in the United States and, according to the National Mining Association; almost five million jobs are created as a result of employment in the industries that support mining.

Just as mining is essential to the American economy, a safe and healthy mining workforce is essential to the mining industry as a whole. The mining environment is inherently hazardous.

Unseen geologic instabilities, constantly changing terrain, the prevalence of large and complex haulage and mining equipment, and rapid industry growth are only a few of the factors that make maintaining mine safety a continuing challenge.

To meet this challenge and accomplish its mission, MSHA regulates and enforces safety and health rules applying to all U.S. mines; fosters compliance, and makes available technical, educational and other types of assistance. More specifically, MSHA inspects mines; investigates mine accidents and fatalities, investigates discrimination claims, hazardous conditions complaints, and other potential violations. MSHA issues citations and collects financial penalties based on those investigations and citations; develops improved safety and health policies;

evaluates and approves mine plans as well as some equipment and materials used in mines;

provides mine emergency response capabilities; trains and certifies mine safety and health professionals; and develops and delivers education and training programs and materials.

1.1 OBJECTIVES

Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis has established the outcome goal for DOL whereby MSHA utilizes a three-part strategy to ensure that the nation’s mines are safe and healthy: training, compliance, and enforcement. A key strategy for accomplishing timely and effective mine emergency response is to ensure that MSHA first responders are adequately equipped.

Since the 1970s, major mine emergencies have become relatively rare events in the United States and there has been a corresponding decrease in the number of people who have hands-on response experience. This gap in expertise and having a central hub for information gathering

Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006

Safe and Healthy Workplaces could have serious consequences during future responses. Managers, engineers and technicians who are responsible for day-to-day operations may suddenly be called on to act as command center liaisons with little or no previous experience in that role. The lack of adequate organized information at the event site could endanger the workers who were present when the emergency occurred and also those called upon to respond. It is necessary during these events to have the ability to gather and decipher information quickly and effectively.

The overall objective of this effort is to build a Trailer that provides a means of getting gathering information and staffing this Trailer with personnel that can interpret and relay all important information to the MSHA Command Center and to headquarters, where all the rescue effort decisions will be made.

The Trailer could be deployed anywhere in the continental United States where an Event might occur. The Trailer ultimately will be the technical hub for information gathered during the Event.

It will be responsible for deciphering this data and disseminating pertinent information to the on-site MSHA Command Center and to headquarters.

1.2 SCOPE

An all aluminum 44 ft. gooseneck trailer with three slide outs (as shown in attached drawing) is to be built of adequate construction in order to respond to mine emergencies all across the United States. The trailer must be of significant strength and construction to withstand the rigors of unimproved roads and excessive haulage with minimal internal oscillation as to not damage the delicate computer equipment onboard.

The trailer shall include a suitable area for meeting space and a work space for engineers at the site of an emergency. All layout and item specifications are provided under Part 4 of the SOW.

Upon completion and final MSHA MEO Personnel approval, the trailer should be delivered by a United States Citizen to the following location:

Inside Building 151 National Headquarters MSHA Mine Emergency Operations 626 Cochrans Mill Road Pittsburgh, PA 15317

Monitoring of performance will be carried out by the Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative (COTR) and MSHA MEO Personnel in coordination as appropriate with the contractor’s point of contact.

1.3 PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: The period of performance shall be for one (1) year from which to contract is awarded. Delivery of Trailer is expected prior to the end of this one year period.

1.3.1 QUALITY CONTROL: The contractor shall develop and maintain an effective quality control program to ensure services and products are performed in accordance with this SOW.

The contractor shall develop and implement procedures to identify, prevent, and ensure non-recurrence of defective products. The contractor’s quality control program is the means by which they assure themselves that their work complies with the requirement of the contract. The Quality Control Plan is to be delivered with the contractors’ proposal. After acceptance of the quality control plan the contractor shall receive the contracting officer’s acceptance in writing of any proposed change to his QC system.

1.3.2 QUALITY ASSURANCE: The government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan. This plan is primarily focused on what the Government must do to ensure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the performance standards. It defines how the performance standards will be applied, the frequency of surveillance, and the minimum acceptable defect rate(s).

1.3.2.1 Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan – MSHA Mine Emergency Operation (MEO) Personnel will be notified for each of the following milestones:

- Final Trailer design prior to commencement of construction

- Framework completion of Trailer

- Completion of insulation

- Completion of electrical wire & component installation, but prior to interior wall installation.

- Completion of interior wall installation, but prior to trimwork.

- Prior to shipment

Upon notification of the above milestones, MSHA MEO Personnel reserve to right to conduct a site evaluation of the trailer before construction can continue. MSHA MEO Personnel also reserve the right to conduct any on site evaluations at any time. MSHA MEO Personnel will evaluate the construction process according to the submitted design along with conducting an evaluation on the workmanship being performed. The contractor is responsible to correct any deficiencies that do not meet the agreed upon design criteria.

This bar will serve as an anchoring point for the monitors MSHA will install later. There will also have be a 1” conduit that will run into the outlet junction box below (Exact locations will be shown on drawing).

In the front two slide outs, two ½ ” x 3” aluminum bars are to be welded flush between the wall posts. The bottom of the lower bar is to be 40 inches from the floor and the bottom of the higher bar is to be 60 inches from the floor. These bars will have to be installed before the wall panels are placed. These bars will serve as an anchoring point for a SmartBoard and other monitors MSHA will install later (Exact locations will be shown on drawing).
