Section C - Descriptions and Specifications

STATEMENT OF WORK

Scope of Work The Mat Sinking Unit requires the rental of two crew boats to be used to assist with operations during the upcoming 2023 mat sinking season. The vessels will be utilized primarily to transport personnel and supplies between the USACE living quarters and the USACE plant where personnel work. They will also be used to transport personnel/supplies to and from other parts of the Mat Sinking Unit fleet. The Mat Sinking Unit requires daily services of the vessel along with the services of a pilot for a 12-hour shift (0600-1800 normally), seven (7) days a week, along with being on call the rest of the day. The pilot shall have a valid operator’s license as required by the Coast Guard, which shall be provided with the bid. The crew boats shall be capable of everything listed in the requirements section listed below.

The contract shall allow for vessel services as needed for the Mat Sinking Unit in accordance with the requirements below. The Mat Sinking Unit will coordinate with the contractor as to when services will no longer be needed for each vessel and when services might be required later. The contractor shall only bill for the actual number of days that the vessel(s) and pilot(s) are with the Mat Sinking Unit or are in route to/from the Mat Sinking Unit.

Requirements

Provide crew boat to assist with Mat Sinking operations Provide pilot to run each crew boat for 12 hours/day shift – 0600 – 1800, seven (7) days a week On call for rest of day/night One or both vessels will likely be asked to run a 12 hour shift at irregular hours other than 0600 – 1800 at some point in order to cover early/late Mat Sinking Unit operations as needed

Arrange transportation to/from Mat Sinking Unit when services start/end Crew boat requirements

30 – 50 feet long Diesel Engines 600 HP minimum Searchlight VHF Marine Radio monitoring channel 82 AIS Transponder to allow vessel visibility to other vessels in area

Mat Sinking Unit will provide a deckhand to assist contractor pilot with tying off on each vessel

Mat Sinking Unit will provide living quarters and meals for pilots if needed Send reports twice per week, at a minimum, to Nathan Jabour and Maurice Gilmore at the below email addresses:

Nathanael.j.jabour@usace.army.mil Maurice.A.Gilmore@usace.army.mil Should cover status of vessel and fuel used, at a minimum.

Mat Sinking Unit will provide diesel for the crew boats.

Each instance that the vessels take on diesel from the government shall be documented on a fuel ticket that shows the date and amount of fuel taken and shall be provided to the Mat Sinking Unit.

Performance Period The Mat Sinking Unit requires that the period of performance last from August 27, 2023 through November 25, 2023. The dates are subject to change. All contract days are not guaranteed, and the vessels will be used less than 90 days each if the mat sinking season ends before expected. The contract will have one line item for 180 days total (90 days each boat) to cover both crewboats for the entire season.

Deficiencies The contractor will not be paid the contracted price if the vessel is not usable in accordance with the specifications. On days when the crew boat(s) is down for maintenance or down one engine, the vessel will be considered as in an “unavailable” status and will not be used by the government.

Those days that the vessel(s) is in an “unavailable” status will be documented and will not be paid by the government. Any days when the vessel(s) is only fully running for a partial day will be billed as a half-day rate. If the vessel(s) is in an “unavailable” status due to be being down one engine, but the Mat Sinking Unit still needs to utilize the vessel, the contractor will be paid for those days at a half-day rate.

Security Requirements

1. General security requirements and guidance: The security requirements described below apply to all contract personnel (including employees of the prime Contractor (“Contractor”) and all subcontractor employees) supporting the performance requirements of this contract. The Contractor is responsible for compliance with these security requirements. Questions regarding security matters shall be addressed to the designated Government representative (e.g., Contracting Officer Representative (COR), Requiring Activity (RA) representative, or Contracting Officer (if a COR or other RA representative is not appointed)). Contract personnel are critical to the overall security and safety of US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) installations, facilities and activities, and security awareness training contributes to those efforts. The Department of Defense (DoD) and Army security training requirements specified below, if applicable, are performance requirements; all applicable contract personnel shall complete initial training within 30 days of contract award or the date new contract personnel begin performance on the contract. Within five business days from the completion of training, the Contractor shall provide written documentation (e.g., email or memorandum) to the Government representative. The documentation shall include the names of contract personnel trained and which training they completed; the Contractor shall maintain training records as part of their contract files and be prepared to provide copies of training certificates to the Government representative. Contractor personnel and vehicles are subject to search when entering federal installations. Additionally, all contract personnel shall comply with Force Protection Condition (FPCON) measures, Random Antiterrorism Measures (commonly referred to as “RAMs”), and Health Protection Condition (HPCON) measures. The Contractor is responsible for meeting performance requirements during elevated FPCON and/or HPCON levels in accordance with applicable RA plans and procedures --this includes identifying mission essential and non-mission essential personnel. In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the changes clause of this contract, should the FPCON or HPCON levels at any individual facility or installation change, the Government may implement security changes that affect contract personnel. The Contractor shall ensure all contract personnel are aware of their security responsibilities, including any site-specific requirements identified in local policies or procedures.

2. Antiterrorism (AT) Level I training: All contract personnel requiring routine access to Army installations, facilities, and controlled access areas, or requiring network access shall complete initial and annual refresher AT Level I awareness training. Online AT Level I awareness training is available at https://jko.jten.mil/ (website subject to change).

3. Physical security and access control requirements: All contract personnel requiring physical access to a federal installation or facility shall comply with the access control procedures of that location. Contract personnel requiring unescorted access to meet contract performance requirements on a DoD installation in the US shall be vetted by the installation/facility Provost Marshal/Directorate of Emergency Services/Security Office using the National Crime Information Center-Interstate Identification Index (commonly referred to as “NCIC-III”) and Terrorist Screening Database (commonly referred to as “TSDB”). Contract personnel shall comply with all personal identity verification requirements specified in installation/facility policies and procedures. Contract personnel who do not meet requirements for unescorted access to USACE facilities shall coordinate escorted access with the Government representative, as needed. Contract personnel who receive keys, access cards, or lock combinations that provide access to government-owned property shall comply with key and lock control procedures of the RA.

4. Suspicious Activity Reporting training (e.g. iWATCH, CorpsWatch, or See Something, Say Something): All contract personnel shall receive initial and annual refresher training from the RA representative on the local suspicious activity reporting program. This locally developed training provides contract personnel with general information on suspicious behavior, and guidance on reporting suspicious activity to the project manager, security representative or law enforcement entity.

5. Contracts requiring a formal OPSEC program: The Contractor shall develop an OPSEC SOP/Plan within 90 days of contract award. The OPSEC SOP/Plan shall be reviewed and accepted by the RA OPSEC Officer. This plan will include a process to identify critical information, where it is located, who is responsible for it, how to protect it, and why it needs to be protected. In accordance with Army and DoD regulations, the contractor shall have a certified Level II OPSEC coordinator, who shall ensure OPSEC compliance during contract performance.

6. Escorting in classified and/or sensitive areas: In accordance with applicable regulations, all contract personnel who do not possess the appropriate security clearance or access privileges will be escorted in areas where they may be exposed to classified information or operations, sensitive information or activities, or restricted areas.

7. Pre-screen candidates using E-Verify Program: Contractors shall comply with the requirements set forth in FAR clause 52.222-54 Employment Eligibility Verification and FAR Subpart 22.18 in using the E-Verify Program at (https://www.e-verify.gov/) (website subject to change) to meet the contract employment eligibility requirements. Contractors are encouraged to cooperate with Federal and State agencies responsible for enforcing labor requirements to include eligibility for employment under United States immigration laws in accordance with FAR 22.102-1(i). An initial list of verified/eligible candidates shall be provided to the COR no later than three business days after the initial contract award. When contracts are with individuals, the individuals will be required to complete a Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, and submit it to the Contracting Officer to become part of the official contract file.

***Workers in this classification may be entitled to a higher minimum wage under Executive Order 14026 ($16.20 per hour) or 13658 ($12.15 per hour). Please see the Note at the top of the wage determination for more information. Please also note that the minimum wage requirements of Executive Order 14026 and 13658 are not currently being enforced as to contracts or contract-like instruments entered into with the federal government in connection with seasonal recreational services or seasonal recreational equipment rental for the general public on federal lands.

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors, applies to all contracts subject to the Service Contract Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is the victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

ALL OCCUPATIONS LISTED ABOVE RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS:

HEALTH & WELFARE: $4.80 per hour, up to 40 hours per week, or $192.00 per week or $832.00 per month

HEALTH & WELFARE EO 13706: $4.41 per hour, up to 40 hours per week, or $176.40 per week, or $764.40 per month*

*This rate is to be used only when compensating employees for performance on an SCA-covered contract also covered by EO 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors. A contractor may not receive credit toward its SCA obligations for any paid sick leave provided pursuant to EO 13706.

VACATION: 2 weeks paid vacation after 1 year of service with a contractor or successor, 3 weeks after 8 years, and 4 weeks after 15 years. Length of service includes the whole span of continuous service with the present contractor or successor, wherever employed, and with the predecessor contractors in the performance of similar work at the same Federal facility. (See 29 CFR 4.173)

HOLIDAYS: A minimum of eleven paid holidays per year: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday, Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, Juneteenth National Independence Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans'

Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. (A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.) (See 29 CFR 4.174)

THE OCCUPATIONS WHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING:

1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: This wage determination does not apply to any individual employed in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity, as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. (See 41 C.F.R. 6701(3)). Because most Computer Systems Analysts and Computer Programmers who are paid at least $27.63 per hour (or at least $684 per week if paid on a salary or fee basis) likely qualify as exempt computer professionals under 29 U.S.C. 213(a)(1) and 29 U.S.C. 213(a)(17), this wage determination may not include wage rates for all occupations within those job families. In such instances, a conformance will be necessary if there are nonexempt employees in these job families working on the contract.

Job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry, and are not determinative of whether an employee is an exempt computer professional. To be exempt, computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements must also have a primary duty that consists of:

(1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to determine hardware, software or system functional specifications;

(2) The design, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including prototypes, based on and related to user or system design specifications;

(3) The design, documentation, testing, creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or

(4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F.R. 541.400).

Any computer employee who meets the applicable compensation requirements and the above duties test qualifies as an exempt computer professional under both section 13(a)(1) and section 13(a)(17) of the Fair Labor Standards Act. (Field Assistance Bulletin No. 2006-3 (Dec. 14, 2006)). Accordingly, this wage determination will not apply to any exempt computer employee regardless of which of these two exemptions is utilized.

2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY & SUNDAY PAY: If you work at night as part of a regular tour of duty, you will earn a night differential and receive an additional…
