RFI ques�ons from Title V Emissions 1/10/2024 Site Visit RFP 47PM0024R0004
Confirming the next opacity off-stack due in 2024 and is it the intention to perform the off-stack once every 3 years (2027) on all six units during one mobilization. Should there be a second line item for these services?
Yes, off-stack stack testing is required once every three (3) years. Off-stack testing is included in this 5-year contract in separate line items scheduled for the Base period (2024 after April 1) under CLIN # 0014, and in the third option period (2027 after April 1) under CLIN # 3014.
Will Central Heating & Refrigeration Plant (CHRP) Heating Operation & Transmission Division (HOTD) be providing CEMS service parts, as well as linearity test gases for both the NOX/CO and the O2 systems.
Yes – GSA will provide/purchase service parts. The contractor is expected to recommend, identify exact parts, and provide a quote for required parts. GSA will purchase parts as needed. GSA will provide all test gasses for both the NOX/CO and the O2 systems for linearity.
Sec�on C.1.2 Rela�ve Accuracy Test Audits (RATA): what are the stack eleva�ons for each stack?
Ans:
Boilers Stack Eleva�on B1/Stack 1 130 � B2/Stack 2 130 � B3/Stack 3 133 � B5/Stack 4 133 � B5/Stack 5 133 � B6/Stack 6 133 �
Sec�on C.1.3.2 Off stack Calibra�on of Opacity Monitors: are the NIST traceable filter lenses needed to complete these tasks to be provided by us or will these be provided by the plant?
GSA has a full set of opacity filters. GSA arranges for annual filter cer�fica�on, so the filters are ready to use for any relevant opacity tes�ng.
Sec�on C.1.3.3 Repair Parts: please clarify that any unwarranted parts necessary for repairs, quality assurance, and quality control of the CEMS system will be billed separately following the service visits.
Parts are purchased using a quote, budget approval, then purchase process. The vendor should not provide a bunch of parts then bill prior to approval. The vendor should recommend service parts prior to service. (i.e., annual maintenance should include a known list of parts). In a repair situa�on GSA will do it’s best to describe symptoms and then the tech will come to the site to diagnose an issue.
Some�mes the tech can bring parts with other �mes the vendor will have to order parts for delivery. In urgent scenarios, GSA will pay for rush delivery.
What is the plan for performing linearities on boilers that rarely run/never run certain quarters. Will we be able to request they run up a boiler for testing purposes.
We do not start boilers for testing and then turn them off. Boiler linearity testing is dependent on operation. If a boiler does not operate in a calendar quarter, it will not require NOx/O2 testing for that calendar quarter. CGA and Opacity is performed on 6 boiler opacity units every quarter, regardless of operation or not. The vendor will get paid for the number of linearity tests performed in a given quarter. Additional expense is limited to billing for extra mobilizations if boilers come online after the linearity service visit.
Please provide the most recent RATA and linearity test reports for either Boilers 1, 2, or 6, 3 or 4 and 5.
Ans: Please see attached:
Please provide the bid tabulation results for the current contract.
The tabulations are to be submitted according to the SF1449 sheet per service performed (4 RATA per year, 6 Linearity testing reports. Payment will be provided in accordance with the services performed.

INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of the Relative Accuracy test performed for GSA at the Central Heating and Refrigeration Plant on Boiler 1.
The purpose of the tests was to determine the Relative Accuracy of the plant
CEMS of the unit. The results can be found in the Summary of Test Results section of this report.
The testing was performed by Grace Consulting, Inc., located at 510 Dickson
Street, Wellington, OH 44090. Present during the testing from Grace Consulting, Inc. were Steve Teague and Kurt Kinter. Also present during the testing was Mark
Yohn with GSA.
The tests were performed on January 23, 2023 The testing was completed in accordance with USEPA test methods as published in the Federal Register.
The sampling and analytical procedures can be found in the Methods and
Discussion section of this report. The raw field data and the equations used to determine the final results are presented in the Appendix section.

METHODS AND DISCUSSION
Test Methods used at GSA, Central Heating and Refrigeration Plant on Boiler 1
Method 4
One moisture test was performed for every two runs of the Methods 3A, 7E, and 10 testing.
Method 3A
O2 concentrations were determined with 10 Method 3A test runs on the Normal load. GCI used a monitor range of 0-22.16% for O2.
Method 7E
NOx emissions were determined with 10 Method 7E test runs on the Normal load.
GCI used a monitor span of 229.9 ppm for NOx.
Method 10
CO emissions were determined with 10 Method 10 test runs on the Normal load.
GCI used a monitor span of 49.74 ppm for NOx.
All gaseous sampling was performed at 16.7, 50.0, and 83.3 percent of the measurement line.
Discussion
Environmental conditions did not adversely affect the test results.
Testing was completed by following GCI’s Internal Site Specific Test Plan #23-011 with no deviations.

01-23-23 Run 1
METHOD 7E (NOx) CALCULATION (O2 Based) lb/dscf = 1.194 x 10-7 x PPM
7.06E-06 = 1.194 x 10-7 x 59.1 lb/mmBtu = lb/dscf x f-factor x 20.9
(20.9 (1−𝐵𝑤𝑎) − %𝑂2)
0.120 = 7.06E-06 x 10610 x 20.9
(20.9 (1−.027) − 7.3)
Bwa = 0.027 – moisture fraction for ambient air
*Sample calculations use rounded numbers and computer printouts carry all decimal places.
The following is used to convert ppm dry to ppm wet.

Calculate the arithmetic mean of the differences, d, of a data set as follows:
n li id n ld
Where:
n = Number of data points n li id = Algebraic sum of the individual differences di di = The difference between a reference method value and the corresponding continuous emissions monitoring system value (RMi-CEMi) at a given point in time i.
When calculating the arithmetic mean of the difference of a flow monitor data set, be sure to correct the monitor measurements for moisture if applicable.
Calculate the standard deviation, Sd, of a data set as follows:
n n d d
S n li i n li i d
Calculate the confidence coefficient (one-tailed), CC, of a data set as follows:
StCC d 0.975=
Where:
t0.975 = t value (see Table 7-1).
