1.2 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

A. Project Location: Bryce Canyon National Park is a national park located in Utah. It is part of the

Colorado Plateau geographic province and straddles the southeastern edge of the Paunsaugunt

Plateau. The park is about 270 miles south of Salt Lake City and 260 miles northeast of Las

Vegas, on the western edge of the Colorado Plateau. The closest major airports are in Las Vegas

(LAS), Nevada and Salt Lake City (SLC), Utah, each approximately 270 miles from the park.

There are smaller airports in Cedar City (CDC), Utah (80 miles) and St. George (SGU), Utah

(125 miles). There are multiple ways to access the park, and all will require taking State Highway

UT-12 to connect with UT-63 south to Bryce Canyon National Park. The visitor center sits 1 mile inside the park boundary. The park is open year-round. Roads are plowed and sanded after heavy snowstorms. Some roads may be temporarily closed during and immediately following winter storms, but the park is always open.

B. The Work consists of:

1. Rehabilitate and/or replace obsolete, critical system components of the East Creek water system.

2. Water distribution system improvements include replacing services and upsizing water mains for structural fire protection in several visitor use areas.

BRCA 318695 01 11 00 - 2

3. Replacement of Mission 66 Housing area sewer laterals behind the lodge – only 4” and

6” sewer laterals were identified for replacement up to the 8” sewer main.

4. Decommission and demolish obsolete assets including the Yovimpa Point Water System.

C. Project will be constructed under a single prime contract.

1.3 WORK PHASES

A. The Work shall be conducted in phases directly coordinated with NPS Facility Management to not impact park operations. Water mains cannot be shut down during the entire duration of the project, and any temporary shutdowns needed must be coordinated 5 days in advance.

1.4 WORK UNDER OTHER CONTRACTS

A. General: Cooperate with separate Construction Contractors so work on those contracts may be carried out smoothly, without interfering with or delaying work under this Contract. Coordinate

Work of this Contract with work performed under separate contracts.

B. Preceding Work: Coordinate with Government on any preceding work performed under separate contract.

1. To be determined with NPS.

C. Concurrent Work: Coordinate with Government on any concurrent work performed under separate contract.

1. To be determined with NPS.

D. Future Work: Coordinate with Government on any future work performed under separate contract.

1. To be determined with NPS.

1.5 CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR USE OF SITE

A. General: Construction Contractor shall have full use of the site for construction operations during the construction period. Construction Contractor's use of the site is limited only by the

Government's right to perform work or to retain other construction Contractors on portions of

Project.

B. General: Construction Contractor shall have limited use of site for construction operations. Limit use of premises to areas within Construction limits indicated on drawings. Do not disturb portions of Project site beyond areas in which the Work is indicated.

1. Limits: Confine constructions operations to areas within Construction limits indicated on drawings for East Creek, Main Visitor’s Center Area, the Lodge Area and Yovimpa Point.

2. Limit site disturbance, including earthwork and clearing of vegetation, to the limits of disturbance boundaries shown on the plans.

BRCA 318695 01 11 00 - 3

C. Storage of Materials: Confine storage of materials to areas as approved and coordinated with

Park Maintenance staff and be approved by COR.

D. Parking: Confine parking to areas as approved and coordinated with Park Maintenance staff and be approved by COR.

E. Stockpiling: Confine stockpiling to staging areas as approved and coordinated with Park

Maintenance staff and be approved by COR.

F. Preservation of Natural Features:

1. Prevent damage to natural surroundings.

2. Within construction limits, erect fenced enclosures around trees to be preserved to protect crowns from contact by equipment, to preserve roots and soil conditions, and to identify tree protection zones (TPZ) in which soil disturbance is not permitted and activities are restricted unless otherwise approved by CO. Remove all tree protection prior to final acceptance.

3. Do not remove, injure, or destroy trees or other plants without prior approval. Consult with Contracting Officer (CO) and remove agreed-on roots and branches that interfere with construction. Restitution plan for any trees damaged without approval is linked here:

https://doimspp.sharepoint.com/:w:/r/sites/nps-dsc-DC-

BRCA318695_LRF/Shared%20Documents/General/Compliance/Vegetation/Tree%20P rotection/BRCA%20318695%20General%20Vegetation%20Protection%20Requiremen ts.docx?d=wc19867dce2e84d34b2bee3d0ab7939ba&csf=1&web=1&e=aVg0PK

4. Protect roots over 1 inch in diameter which are severed during construction operations.

Do not allow the tree roots to dry out while exposed. Immediately cover exposed roots with wet burlap or plastic bags to keep roots moist until roots can be covered with dirt.

Rebury the roots as soon as possible.

5. Do not fasten ropes, cables, or guys to existing trees.

6. Carefully supervise excavating, grading, filling, and other construction operations near trees to prevent damage.

G. Driveways and Entrances: Keep driveways and entrances serving premises clear and available to

Government employees, park visitors, and emergency vehicles at all times. Do not use for parking or storage of materials.

2. Schedule deliveries to minimize space and time requirements for storage of materials and equipment on-site.

H. Construction Camp: Establishment of a construction camp within the park will not be permitted.

I. Hauling Restrictions: Comply with legal load restrictions in hauling of materials. Load restrictions on park roads are identical to state load restrictions with such additional regulations as may be imposed by the Park Superintendent. Information regarding rules and regulations for vehicular traffic on park roads may be obtained from the Office of the Park Superintendent. A special permit will not relieve Construction Contractor of liability for damage which may result from moving of equipment.

J. Ensure all construction vehicles and equipment (prime, sub, deliveries, etc.) are cleaned of soil, plant material, and other debris prior to entering park. Since construction will span the USFS

BRCA 318695 01 11 00 - 4

and NPS boundary, equipment must be cleaned prior to crossing into NPS lands. PM or delegated

Park Representative must inspect equipment at an agreed location outside of the park. This applies to any vehicles or equipment that will travel off designated roadways or partake in excavation activities. If equipment is stored or travels outside of the park for any period of time, it will be up to the discretion of the CO, PM, or Park Representative to require inspection upon reentry to the park. Typically, if vehicles or equipment are kept on roadways and not used on other external projects while outside the park, reentry inspections are not necessary.

K. Bridge Restrictions: Identify jurisdictions, load restrictions, permit requirements, time and calendar restrictions as outlined.

1.6 PUBLIC USE OF SITE

A. The construction area defined for that phase or portion of work coordinated with Park

Maintenance staff will be closed to the public during construction and be approved by COR.
