Scope of Work

Vault Sewage Pumping & Disposal Delaware Water Gap NRA

1. Introduction

The Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area located in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey and has over 70,000 Areas of land and 40 miles of river with various recreational opportunists available.

2. Scope Contractor shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, tools, supplies, transportation, and incidentals necessary to pump sewage at various designated vaults throughout Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. Delaware Water Gap National Park is in the counties of Pike, Monroe, and Northampton in Pennsylvania, and the counties of Sussex and Warren in New Jersey.

Contractor shall be called for a minimum of one pump out per year per vault which consists of forty-three 1,000-gallon vaults at various locations throughout the park, two 1,000-gallon pit toilets located at Rivers Bend Campgrounds, and one 10,000 vault located at Bushkill Access.

Water will be provided and added by contractor in the amount of 75-100 gallon per 1,000 gallon vault each time a unit is pumped, except at Bushkill Access and Rivers Bend Campground Pit Toilets, unless otherwise stated by park representative. The park typically plans to pump each of the 1,000-gallon vaults about twice a year unless situations arise that require more. The 10,000-gallon vault may be more, possibly up to five or six times, not always at full capacity.

Tanks are access by surface mounted locked lid cover set at-grade and will not require digging to access the tanks. Government escort will unlock and re-secure lids upon completion of pumping.

3. Quantities Quantities listed in the table are approximate only. Volumes indicated in the Delivery table are the tank design capacities and provided for estimating purposes only. Pumping is based on estimates of anticipated needs. Pumping is usually requested when vault odors become very strong and flies and other insects are noted at sites, not necessarily that the vaults are full. It is understood and agreed that the contract shall cover actual quantities required to be pumped and that they may be less than the quantities actually ordered for delivery.

4. Delivery All vault locations are identified by maps provided and are listed in the table below. Some locations may be considered remote or unimproved with access being stone, dirt, or gated roads which may be a distance from main roads or thoroughfares. A government escort will ensure driver’s accessibility to locations.
