STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

BREATHING AIR MAINTENANCE

70Z03819QK0000004

1.0 General

1.1 Background

The breathing air quality requirement for atmosphere supplying respirators is part of a comprehensive respiratory protection program. Supplied air respirators (SAR) have air quality requirements issued by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). OSHA requires that compressed air used for breathing meet described regulations. Breathing air quality and use must meet the requirements under 29 CFR 1910.134(i). As a result of this regulation, we ensure that respirable air purifying filters and carbon monoxide monitors are in place and operational to protect the worker from potentially dangerous particles and gases.

1.2 Scope

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) requires inspection, calibration and service of breathing air filtration panels for respirable air, including filter and Carbon Monoxide sensor change. The required service includes actions necessary to inspect, calibrate, service, perform filter change and perform Carbon Monoxide sensor change. Calibrations performed shall be traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

1.2.1 Work under this contract shall be performed at the USCG’s facility. The contractor shall provide all necessary parts, materials, labor, tooling, test equipment and personnel to inspect, maintain, calibrate and service berthing air filtration panels for respirable air, including filter and Carbon Monoxide sensor change at the firm-fixed prices listed in the schedule. On-site inspection and calibration shall be performed on a quarterly basis, for a total of four (4) on-site visits. The quarterly onsite visits shall occur in May, August, November, and February, unless other arrangements are made with the Contracting Officer and Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The visits shall be scheduled with the COR no later than one (1) month prior to the visit. During the third quarterly visit, a full filter and Carbon Monoxide sensor replacement of all breathing air panels shall be performed as outlined per the manufacturer’s instructions.

2.0 Specific Requirements/Tasks

2.1 Task One

Inspection, calibration and service shall be performed per task order. The Contractor shall perform calibration, maintenance and service in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. As part of the quarterly inspection, the Contractor shall perform the following:

Ensure no air leaks around filter manifolds or other connections;

Ensure cleanliness of the unit;

Test operation of Carbon Monoxide monitor alarms;

Ensure Carbon Monoxide monitor is on for five (5) minutes prior to calibration to ensure the sensors stabilize;

Ensure the Carbon Monoxide monitor air sample metering valve is properly adjusted;

Calibrate Carbon Monoxide monitor with required calibration gas;

Ensure calibration gas is not expired and in correct concentrations as per manufacturers requirements;

Ensure air is purged through newly installed filter sets for at least five (5) minutes after installation to condition the filters.

2.1.1 Inspection and calibrations shall be performed on the following twenty-nine (29) breathing air units: (MFG=Manufacturer, CO=carbon monoxide, S/N=serial number, ID#-identification number)

The use of tobacco is prohibited in all USCG Government vehicles (including Cushman type), in all USCG aircraft, floating unit, or any other aircraft contracted for use in the USCG. The use of tobacco products (smoking and smokeless) is permitted only in designated areas as defined in USCG ALC Instruction 6280.1 (series). Contractors may only use tobacco products in designated smoking areas during authorized break and lunch periods and are accountable for appropriately discarding their smoking material and/or spit tobacco. Tobacco spit and residue shall be held in containers with sealing lids to prevent odor and accidental spills and disposed of in a sanitary manner which prevents public exposure. Employees caught violating the tobacco policy may be subject to immediate removal in accordance with (IAW) section 9.a.

7.4 Environmental, Safety, And Occupational Health (ESOH)

The Contractor is solely responsible for compliance with all federal, state and local laws, including but not limited to the Occupational, Safety and Health Act (OSHA) (Public Law 91-596) and the resulting standards, OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910 and any ALC Instructions as applicable, and the protection of their employees. Note: ALC Instructions are annotated because many of the USCG/ALC standards exceed the OSHA standard criteria. If a conflict is noted, the most stringent requirement takes precedence. The Government shall assume no liability or responsibility for the Contractor's compliance or non-compliance with such requirements. In addition, the Contractor is required to flow down the safety requirements/specifications to all subcontracts/subcontractors. Safety requirements listed herein that do not concern Contractor’s operations or services shall be considered self-deleting as mutually agreed by the Contracting Officer and the Contractor.

7.4.1 The Contractor shall ensure their employees are made aware that the performance of these services will occur in industrial areas. The industrial complex at ALC has the potential to expose workers to hazardous materials, which may include, but is not limited to hexavalent chromium, cadmium, beryllium, lead and others. Areas where exposures are expected to exceed the permissible exposure limits set by 29 CFR 1910 Occupational, Safety and Health Standards, Subpart Z - Toxic and Hazardous Substances are clearly marked. There may also be contact hazards with these materials during cleanup of dust, metal shavings, etc. The Contractor shall ensure proper protective measures are taken to ensure contracted employees are protected from these hazards, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE). While working in regulated areas where the exposure to hazardous dust is expected, the USCG recommends, at a minimum, the use of Powered Air Purifying Respirators (PAPR) with a protection factor of 1000 when exposure levels may reach the OSHA permissible exposure levels.

7.4.2 The Contractor shall be subject to safety inspections of its work sites by the Government.

Contractor safety records shall be available upon request by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the USCG against, all actions or claims pertaining to the “personal” safety requirements of employees. The Contractor shall provide all PPE (respiratory protection, hearing protection, gloves, steel-toed shoes, safety glasses, protective clothing, etc.). Safety shoes and safety glasses, etc. are required in the industrial areas. In addition, the Government is not responsible for medical examinations, hearing testing, substance abuse testing, or any other type of testing for Contractor employees.
