About this file

This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for road boring and conduit installation services at a NOAA water level monitoring station in Louisiana.

The contractor shall bore beneath Louisiana Highway 306 (Bayou Gauche Road) at coordinates 29°47'19.1" N, 90°25'12.1" W and install a 2-inch diameter conduit extending approximately 200 feet from the NOAA water level monitoring station on Bayou Gauche to a meteorological station location in a grass lot owned by the Bayou Gauche Fire Department on the opposite side of the highway. The contractor must provide all services, personnel, and equipment necessary for boring and conduit placement, including responsibility for obtaining all required permits and locating underground utilities prior to excavation. The contractor is liable for any damages to underground utilities resulting from excavation and boring operations. The conduit shall be buried at a depth determined by the contractor beneath the road and between 1 to 3 feet deep as it passes through the grass lot, with the trench refilled to ensure level ground. The contractor shall install appropriate conduit access boxes with covers at both ends of the run, positioned within 3 feet of the meteorological station concrete pad and as close as practical to the bayou water level station. Access boxes must be 12 to 18 inches above grade. Upon completion of conduit installation, the contractor shall place a pull line inside the conduit to facilitate electrical wiring installation, which NOAA will perform using the provided pull line. The final end location of the conduit run will be determined by NOAA following contract award but will not exceed 200 feet from the water level station.

Statement of Work Road Boring -West Bank Met. Station Installation

The selected contractor will provide road boring or “trenching” beneath Louisiana highway 306 (Bayou Gauche Road) at 29°47'19.1" N, 90°25'12.1"W. The contractor will install a 2” diameter conduit to run electrical wiring from the NOAA water level monitoring station on Bayou Gauche in Louisiana to a location approximately 200ft to the north on the opposite side of Highway 306.

The conduit will then pass through an empty grass lot owned by the Bayou Gauche Fire Department. NOAA will coordinate with the property owner to facilitate the work specified here.

The contractor will provide all services, personnel, and equipment needed to bore the hole beneath the road, and place the conduit to run the entire distance to the new meteorological system location in the lot.The final location of the end of the conduit run in the grass lot will be determined by NOAA after the contract award, but the distance will not exceed 200 feet from the water level station on the bayou. The contractor will be responsible for any necessary permitting, and locating any underground utilities before excavation. The contractor will be responsible for any damages to underground utilities resulting from the excavation and boring processes.

The necessary depth for the conduit to pass safely beneath the road will be determined by the contractor. The conduit trench depth as it passes through the grass lot to the meteorological equipment will be no more than 3 feet, and no less than 1 foot. The contractor will refill the trench with dirt as needed to ensure level ground after trenching and installing the conduit.

The contractor will provide an appropriate conduit access box with cover at the end of the conduit where it exits the ground at both ends of the run. The conduit access box will be within 3 feet of the concrete pad where the meteorological station will be located, and the opposite end as close as practical to the water level station on the bayou. The conduit access box should be at least 12” above grade and no taller than 18” above grade. If the concrete pad in the grass lot has not been installed at the time of the work NOAA will mark the location to ensure proper conduit placement.

Once the conduit is installed the contractor will place a pull line inside the conduit to facilitate the installation of the wiring from the water level station to the meteorological station in the grass lot.

NOAA will be responsible for running the electrical wiring using the pull line the contractor leaves in place.
