A.02.12 DRAFT Residuals Hauling PWS - For synopsis.pdf

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

(a) General.

(1) Background. The Washington Aqueduct Division maintains and operates the Dalecarlia and McMillan Water Treatment Plants (WTP), from which approximately one million people in the District of Columbia and Northern Virginia are served with reliable and safe potable water. Raw water diverted from the Potomac River flows through two conduits and discharges directly into the Dalecarlia Forebay. The water in the forebay is pumped into the Dalecarlia Reservoir via a booster pumping station. The water from the Dalecarlia Reservoir is distributed to both the Dalecarlia Plant and, via the Georgetown Reservoir, to the McMillan Plant. At the Dalecarlia Plant, water flows from the Dalecarlia Reservoir through two raw water conduits into four sedimentation basins. From the sedimentation basins, the water enters one of two filtration buildings. After filtration, the water flows via a 15-milliongallon (MG) clearwell into a 30 MG clearwell. Finished water from the 30 MG clearwell is then pumped out to the public via one of four distribution zones. The process is similar at the McMillan Plant. Water initially flows from the Dalecarlia Reservoir via the Georgetown Conduit to the Georgetown Reservoir for sedimentation purposes.

From the Georgetown Reservoir, the water flows through the City Tunnel to the McMillan Reservoir. From there it is pumped through a filtration building and the filtered water flows via the North Clearwell to the South Clearwell.

The Washington Aqueduct is a self-supporting operation of the Corps of Engineers, and funds for operation and maintenance are derived solely from the sale of water.

(2) Location. Performance will be in the following locations:

Dalecarlia Water Treatment Plant – 5900 MacArthur Blvd. NW Washington DC, 20016 McMillan Reservoir – 2500 First Street NW Washington, DC 20001 Residuals Processing Facility – 5225 Little Falls Road NW Washington, DC 20016 Forebay Reservoir vicinity of the Ruth Building – 6001 McArthur Blvd. Bethesda, MD 20816 Georgetown Reservoir – MacArthur Blvd NW Washington, DC 20016

(3) Contractor responsibility. The Contractor's work and responsibility shall include all contractor planning, programming, administration, and management necessary to provide services as specified. The work shall be conducted in accordance with the contract and all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, codes, or directives. The Contractor’s tasks include the following: supply, quality control, job order, and maintenance of accurate and complete records, files, and regulatory documents to include federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and codes which are necessary and related to the functions being performed. The Contractor shall provide related services such as preparing and providing required reports and submitting necessary information as specified. Tasks shall be performed in such a manner as to conform to the standards specified herein.

(4) General requirements. The Contractor shall perform residuals hauling and disposal services for the Dalecarlia WTP Residuals Processing Facility (RPF), Forebay Reservoir, McMillan Reservoir, and the Georgetown Reservoir under this firm fixed price contract. It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to determine which disposal site will best serve the Washington Aqueduct’s requirements. The residuals hauling and disposal program is subject to acceptance by Washington Aqueduct.

(i) The Contractor shall be responsible for all activities associated with the pick-up and removal of residuals from the Washington Aqueduct locations in paragraph (a)(2) above through hauling and disposal of said residuals at the Contractor-selected remote disposal sites. The overall management and utilization of the residuals shall be in accordance with the accepted residuals hauling and disposal program and all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The residuals to be hauled are strictly drinking water plant residuals.

(ii) Residuals. The residuals in question consist of a solution of silt remaining in the water after passing through the Dalecarlia Reservoir combined with coagulation chemicals (aluminum sulfate and polymer). These residuals are withdrawn from the four Dalecarlia sedimentation basins, the Georgetown Reservoir, the Dalecarlia Forebay and the McMillan Reservoir (which serves as a sedimentation basin for a portion of the flow); thickened by gravity; and dewatered using centrifuges. Attachment J.01 contains a copy of the lab analysis of the residuals.

(iii) Water content. Residuals shall be dewatered by Washington Aqueduct at the RPF. It is anticipated that the composition of the resulting residuals post-dewatering will be greater than 20% dry solids.

(5) Government projected requirements. Minimum and maximum order quantities are as follows:

(i) Minimum guarantee: $3,000.00.

(ii) Maximum total contract capacity is not to exceed 155,000 tons over the five-year contract duration.

(6) Legal public holidays. The Washington Aqueduct abides by all legal public holidays for federal government employees each calendar year as established by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM). No residuals hauling or disposal shall occur on these designated legal public holidays.

(7) Conflicting work. Government or other contracted personnel may be working in and around the RPF or the grounds areas during periods when the Contractor is providing residuals hauling and disposal services. The Contractor’s work shall not unduly interfere with government personnel or other contractors’ work in the area.

(8) RPF site access. The RPF site is located off Little Falls Road in Washington, D.C., immediately north of Sibley Memorial Hospital. Little Falls Road is a privately owned road under the control of Sibley Memorial Hospital.

Washington Aqueduct has obtained the hospital’s permission to allow the residuals hauling and disposal Contractor to access the RPF site via this road. However, under no circumstances shall the Contractor park its trucks on Little Falls Road or obstruct the flow of traffic along the road, including access by emergency vehicles (ambulances), hospital employees or visitors, or the periodic arrival and departure of emergency helicopters.

(i) Only certain routes can be used to haul residuals through the adjacent neighborhoods. Therefore, the Contractor must familiarize itself with the approved truck haul routes shown in Attachment J.02. Washington Aqueduct will provide the Contractor with access through the RPF site entrance gate. Once inside the RPF site fence, the Contractor will be permitted to temporarily park its truck for a few minutes on the RPF access road until the secondary access gate is opened by Washington Aqueduct staff, allowing the Contractor to drive to the designated truck loading bay entrance on the north side of the RPF.

(ii) Exiting the RPF. Once loaded, the Contractor shall exit the RPF truck loading bay, drive to the on-site truck wash facility, wash any solids off the truck that could drop off the vehicle to prevent solids from falling off the truck as it drives through neighborhood streets, and promptly exit the site. Care shall be taken to not add water to the loaded residuals while the truck is being washed. Truck washing shall be accomplished by the residuals hauling and disposal Contractor staff. Space is not provided for temporary parking of loaded hauling trucks on the RPF site and such parking will not be permitted.

(iii) The Contractor shall drive in a safe, courteous, and considerate manner in full compliance with all local and interstate speed limits and traffic regulations. The use of a compression release engine brake or “Jake brake” shall be minimized while driving on neighborhood roads within the beltway. Washington Aqueduct reserves the right to request alternate drivers if these requirements are not met.

(iv) Off limits areas. Certain buildings and real property parcels are "off limits" to the general public. Contractor personnel shall not enter any "off limits" areas without specific permission from the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) to do so. Other areas where the Contractor is authorized to enter must be closed except when entering or leaving the area. The Contractor shall ensure these areas are closed following entrance, remain closed while working within, and are re-locked upon egress.

(v) Access code control. The Contractor shall establish and implement methods of ensuring that any access code numbers issued to the Contractor by the Washington Aqueduct are not lost, misplaced, or used by unauthorized persons. The Contractor shall report the occurrence of a lost access code to the COR, or if after normal Government working hours to the Security Duty Officer. In no event shall the report be later than the next duty day. The Contractor shall be required to replace or reimburse the Government for any security system modifications required as a result of the Contractor’s losing access codes. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to prohibit the use of access codes to Government facilities by any persons other than the Contractor’s authorized employees or authorized Government personnel. The Contractor shall not open locked areas to permit entrance by unauthorized persons.

(vi) Installation closures. When an unforeseen installation closure occurs on a regularly scheduled day of work, one of the following shall occur:

(A) The work will be rescheduled to the following day unless the following day is a Sunday or a legal public holiday and routine work is not scheduled for that day.

(B) The work will be rescheduled to any day mutually satisfactory to the Government and Contractor.

(C) When mutually agreed to, the work will be foregone and the payment due the Contractor will be reduced accordingly for work not performed.

(9) Additional hauling requirements. It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure that the residuals loaded into trucks are devoid of rainwater or wash water. In times of freezing weather, the Contractor may encounter problems with residuals freezing in the hauling vehicles. The Contractor shall provide an off-site heated garage and/or any other items or equipment necessary to thaw the residuals in compliance with all applicable permits.

Additional hauling vehicles may also be required if the existing hauling vehicles are out of service. The Contractor is responsible for all problems related to residuals freezing while in the hauling vehicles. It is the Contractor's responsibility to provide hauling vehicles for loading during severe weather conditions.

(10) Management and personnel.

(i) Management requirements. The Contractor shall provide a Project Manager that is available via email and/or phone during the hours of 5:00 AM – 7:00 PM, with after-hours messages being returned no later than 8:00 AM the following business day. This is a timeframe for pickup only.

(A) The Project Manager shall conduct overall management and coordination and shall be the central point of contact for the Government for performance of all work under the contract. A competent Contractor employee shall be designated to act for the Project Manager during the Project Manager's absence.

Voice mail messages, faxes, or emails will not be acceptable. After the normal working hours, the Contractor shall call the Washington Aqueduct 24-hour Control Room and notify the Shift Responsible Operator (SRO) of any spills.

(b) Definitions.

(1) Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR) DA Form 5479-R. A formal, written documentation of Contractor non-conformance or lack of performance for contracted work. This form is usually issued after an attempt has been made between the Contractor’s Project Manager and the Government’s COR to resolve a performance issue without success.

(2) Unit price. This level of work is defined as all residuals hauling and disposal activities. Included in this level of work are planning, project management, hauling and disposal operations, supervision, overhead, profit, and recurring work described in the contract. All labor, materials, and equipment required to execute work required under this level of work are the Contractor’s responsibility and are to be included in its offer for hauling and disposal of residuals for the quantities projected in the price schedule.

(3) Residuals. Materials produced by Washington Aqueduct as a result of water treatment operations. This includes dredged material and remaining silt from raw water sources.

(c) Government-furnished items.

(1) Facilities. The Government will provide limited truck stacking space as defined below.

(2) Dewatered residuals. Washington Aqueduct will be responsible for dewatering all residuals to be hauled and disposed of under this contract. Washington Aqueduct will temporarily store dewatered residuals in residuals storage bins located on the second floor of the RPF. Three 100 wet ton capacity bins are dedicated to storing dewatered residuals. The Contractor will not be permitted to store any dewatered residuals unloaded from the RPF residuals storage bins on the RPF site.

(3) Temporary haul truck queue space. Approximately 200 feet of haul truck queue space will be provided on the RPF site (between the inner access gate to the north side of the RPF and the exit road located on the south side of the RPF) to allow a small number of trucks to stack while other trucks are loaded. The Contractor shall assume that the main site access gate (located at the site entrance from Little Falls Road) will not be opened until 5:00 AM each day and thus shall plan its truck arrivals accordingly.

(4) Truck wash pad. The Washington Aqueduct will provide a wash pad for the Contractor to use to wash down trucks before leaving the RPF site at no additional cost to the Contractor.

(5) Utilities. The Government will provide water and electricity at the RPF and associated truck wash pad at no additional cost to the Contractor.

(2) Communication and coordination requirements. On a weekly basis, the Contractor’s Project Manager shall coordinate with the designated Washington Aqueduct operations personnel to define the volume of residuals to be hauled in the coming week, the number of trucks required to perform the hauling task, and the storage status of each RPF residuals storage bin. During these coordination emails, Washington Aqueduct will define how many wet tons of residuals will need to be hauled in the coming week. The Contractor shall confirm that they have adequate trucks available to haul this quantity. Prior to any trucks arriving at the RPF site, the Contractor shall e-mail the COR with the name of the driver(s), the number of trucks arriving, and expected arrival time for each day. This information will be used to confirm the identity of the driver upon arrival. Emailed information shall be used by Operations and Security personnel within the Washington Aqueduct. Security efforts may be coordinated with outside agencies and contractors hired by the Government for security services. The Washington Aqueduct will notify the Contractor by noon the day before a scheduled pickup if there is a change in the production of residuals material that will result in a need to increase, decrease, or cancel the number of trucks scheduled. The Contractor shall provide the cell phone number of its assigned Project Manager for use by Washington Aqueduct.

(3) Loading. The Contractor’s drivers shall notify Washington Aqueduct personnel when the trucks are in position to be loaded and when the truck loading needs to be stopped. If necessary to facilitate offsite disposal at the selected remote site(s), the Contractor shall also be responsible for temporary offsite storage of residuals prior to final disposal.

(4) Disposal. The disposal of all residuals managed under this contract, whether to be land-applied or disposed of by other methods, shall be accomplished by the Contractor on permitted sites. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to maintain its permits and to perform work in accordance with such permits. All permits and sites must be available for immediate use under this contract upon award of the contract. The Contractor shall provide the Government with a list, including names and addresses, of approved disposal sites, no later than three days after contract award. Prior to a change in disposal site, the Contractor shall provide updated location information to the Government.

(5) Repair of Contractor-caused damage. In addition to the damage reporting requirements discussed in paragraph (a)(11)(iii), the Contractor shall be responsible for repairing any damage caused by hauling or disposal operations.

Repairs to damaged areas shall be performed within 30 days from the date the damage occurred. Washington Aqueduct may also elect to make the repairs or replace damaged property itself and deduct such costs from monies due the Contractor.

(6) Contingencies. The Washington Aqueduct is a water utility that operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It is essential that residuals hauling and disposal be performed on a continuous basis, in all possible weather conditions.

Therefore, the Contractor shall plan to make accommodations for the following events to include:

(i) A natural disaster, such as heavy snow fall or wind damage.

(ii) An unusually extended period of rainfall with only short periods between rain days.

(iii) Labor strikes.

(iv) The breakdown of large essential equipment.

(A) A sufficient number of vehicles shall be available to allow for standby(s) in case of vehicle failure.

Loading operations slowdown and/or shutdown is unacceptable to Washington Aqueduct.

(v) Contractor workforce illness, absenteeism, etc.

(7) Government assistance. In all cases, the Contractor shall assume that the Washington Aqueduct cannot provide any supplemental forces.

(8) Residuals pick-up and hauling schedule.

(i) Washington Aqueduct hours of operation. The Dalecarlia WTP operates 24 hours per day, 365 days a year.

However, administrative, maintenance, and select operations staff typically work between the hours of 5:00 AM to 3:30 PM Monday through Friday (except for legal public holidays).

(ii) Residuals pick-up hours. The RPF will be open for residuals pick-up between the hours of 5:00 AM and 7:00 PM Monday through Saturday. The Contractor shall schedule the arrival of its trucks to comply with these schedule restrictions. The Contractor shall coordinate with the COR to pick-up residuals during these hours. There is no expectation or requirement that contractors be on site for the entire time frame for pick-up.

(iii) Truck haul route restrictions. The Contractor shall restrict its neighborhood truck haul routes to those defined in Attachment J.02, which were agreed upon by the Washington Aqueduct as part of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) phase of the residuals project. No other haul routes other than routes A, B, D, E, and H as defined on the truck haul route map provided in the attachment shall be used. The Contractor shall also comply with the following haul route schedule restrictions:

(A) Route A shall only be used during off-peak hours between 9:30 AM and 3:00 PM Monday through Saturday.

(B) Haul routes B, D, E, and H shall only be used between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM Monday through Saturday.

(iv) On occasion, events beyond Washington Aqueduct’s control may prevent either loading the truck or providing a full load to the Contractor. There shall be no minimum load guaranteed to the Contractor on such occasions.

(v) Truck weight tickets. Weight tickets shall be obtained at the RPF after loading. One copy of the ticket will be provided to the truck driver and a duplicate copy will be retained by the Washington Aqueduct. Should the Washington Aqueduct not be able to provide the Contractor with a weight ticket from any of the three scales installed inside the RPF, the Contractor shall use the Washington Aqueduct’s estimate of the weight of each load. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure that its trucks are not overloaded. No water or other substances shall be added by the Contractor to the residuals in the vehicle prior to the weighing of the load. Weight tickets obtained at the RPF will include a ticket number, the day and date, and the net weight of residuals loaded into the truck.

(A) The Contractor shall attach one copy of the RPF weight ticket to a supplemental disposal ticket that includes the date and time of delivery to the disposal site, the signature of the Contractor’s representative at the disposal point, and the location to which the residuals were delivered.

(B) One copy of the RPF weight ticket(s) and the disposal ticket(s), annotated as described above, shall be presented to Washington Aqueduct’s representative on a weekly basis. Copies of signed weight tickets shall also accompany the weekly invoice for payment. Failure to submit legible weight tickets may be cause for nonpayment for those loads hauled. Weekly invoices with weight tickets shall be forwarded to the COR.

6.3 RESIDUALS QUANTITIES: The Contractor is obligated to execute contract requirements at the quantities required by Washington Aqueduct for its operations. Residuals will be hauled as provided in the weekly schedule established by the Plant Operations Branch. The quantities stated herein are estimated long term average amounts of residuals to be hauled and disposed of per year. These approximate quantities represent the best estimates of Washington Aqueduct and are based on the actual quantities of residuals material produced and hauled over the past three (3) years.
