About this file
This statement of work outlines chronic toxicity testing requirements for the El Portal Wastewater Treatment Facility operated by Yosemite National Park. The National Park Service will collect samples in June or July and deliver them to an accredited California laboratory within 30 hours of collection and between 0-6 degrees Celsius. The laboratory must perform seven-day survival and growth tests with fathead minnows, seven-day survival and reproduction tests with Ceriodaphnia dubia, and 96-hour algal growth tests with Selenastrum capricornutum. Concurrent reference toxicant tests are also required for each organism. Test results are due to the El Portal Wastewater Treatment Facility Laboratory Director by August 30th each year.
The related federal contract opportunity is a solicitation from the Department of the Interior National Park Service for chronic toxicity testing services for Yosemite National Park under solicitation number 140P8524Q0002.

Statement of Work
CHRONIC TOXICITY TESTING
Yosemite National Park
Objective:
Obtain accredited laboratory in California to perform Chronic Toxicity Testing to comply with state waste discharge permit requirements, for El Portal Wastewater Treatment Facility, Order Number R5-2014-0068, NPDES Number CA0081759.
Background:
Yosemite National Park operates the El Portal Wastewater Treatment Plant (EPWWTP) in El Portal, CA,on Hwy 140, just west of the Yosemite National Park boundary. EPWWTP is a one
(1) million gallon per day wastewater treatment facility that treats domestic waste from Yosemite Valley and the town of El Portal. The heaviest flows usually occur from April through October of any given year, when park visitation is at the highest.
Annual (one time per calendar year) Chronic Toxicity Testing is required by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) to analyze the effluent that is discharged to percolation ponds. EPWWTP is in need of this test to satisfy permit requirements.
EPWWTP has an accredited Environmental Laboratory that is certified by the State of California. The scope of the certificate is limited to the “Fields of Testing” which accompany this Certificate. EPWWTP laboratory is not authorized to perform this test and must depend on an outside source to comply with waste discharge permit requirements. Order Number R5-2014- 0068. NPDES Number CA0081759.
Requirement:
National Park Service (NPS) will collect all necessary samples on site, not the responsibility of the laboratory. NPS will collect samples in June or July, yearly, weather dependent.
NPS will either ship samples in appropriate form to maintain set temperature limitations and hold time limitations to accredited laboratory or drive samples directly to the accredited laboratory if unable to maintain set temperature limitations or hold time limitations.
Laboratory shall verify the chain of custody order that will accompany the samples to ensure accuracy. If samples arrive or are delivered outside the established temperature and time limitations, it will be the responsibility of the NPS to resample.
Laboratory shall perform all Chronic Toxicity Testing per EPA methods.
*****Per RWQCB permit, laboratory testing of collected samples must be completed within 30 hours of sample collection and must stay within 0-6 Celsius. Any violation of these above limitations will require resampling and resubmission of samples to accredited lab*****
Laboratory Testing required:
Chronic Toxicity Testing (Control + 5 effluent concentrations)
Quantity 1 Each 7-day Survival and growth chronic test with fathead minnows Concurrent reference toxicant test w/fathead minnows Quantity 1 Each 7-Day survival and reproduction chronic test with Ceriodaphnia dubia Concurrent reference toxicant test w/Ceriodaphnia dubia Quantity 1 Each 96-hr. algal growth test w/Selenastrum capricornutum Concurrent reference toxicant test w/ Selenastrum capricornutum
Delivery:
For samples for EPWWTP, laboratory shall submit testing finding results directly to El Portal Wastewater Treatment Facility Laboratory Director both by email and with a hard copy sent by mail.
