1.3 MODIFICATION PROPOSAL PRICING REQUIREMENTS

A. General:

1. Your proposal must be received in the format and within the time frame specified in the Request for Proposal letter. Costs or delays resulting from failure of contractor to submit within the time frame specified will not be compensable.

2. The proposal must be detailed with itemized lists of equipment, materials, labor, production rates, overhead, profit, and bond markup for each item. Labor costs must be itemized by craft and hourly rate, including Fringe Benefits and Labor Burden. If the costs of Fringe Benefits and Labor Burden are not itemized, it is assumed that that they are included in the hourly rate shown, or contractor is not requesting reimbursement. Contractor may utilize the government provided Contractor Estimate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Employee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surety_bond http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bank http://www.nps.gov/dscw/publicforms.htm#ct

STLI 01 26 01 - 4

Form, or their own form, provided that it contains the same information and level of detail as the Gov’t provided form.

3. Requests for extensions of contract time as a result of this change must be justified with a Time Impact Analysis (TIA). Refer to Division 01 Specification, “Construction

Schedule”, for time impact analysis requirements. TIA and associated costs must be received with the proposal by the date shown within the Request for Proposal letter.

Contractor’s failure to submit within the specified time frame will be construed as the

Contractor waiving the right for additional time and no time extension will be allowed.

4. All supporting documentation used to justify the proposed modification will be made available to the Contracting Officer upon request.

5. Contractor must review and approve all subcontractor/supplier pricing in detail for proper format, scope, production rates, and pricing prior to submission to the NPS.

All delay costs associated with not reviewing and approving subcontractor/supplier pricing will be borne by the Contractor.

6. All pricing and production rates within the estimate must be based on fair and reasonable pricing and cannot include built-in contingency.

B. Labor:

1. Contractor shall estimate the cost of labor by itemizing each craft involved, indicating worker hourly rate (base rate + labor burden + fringe benefits) for each and itemizing the hours required for each craft that will be directly engaged in modification work.

Any work proposed that will require overtime work or premium pay shall be itemized separately. All rates shall be in accordance with the Davis-Bacon Act as incorporated herein. Labor Burden may include payroll taxes, Social Security, unemployment insurances, workers compensation insurance, FICA, FUTA, and other direct costs resulting from Federal, State or local laws.

2. Itemize labor costs for equipment operators separate from equipment costs.

3. The labor cost for foremen shall only be costs for related work required for the modification.

C. Materials:

1. The estimated cost for materials shall include quotes from multiple sources. Material prices must include all applicable fees and credits, including but not limited to, sales tax, freight and delivery charges, and tax rebates.

2. No markup shall be applied to any material provided by the NPS.

D. Equipment:

1. Equipment used for the project must be appropriately sized for the work being performed.

2. Do not include costs for “miscellaneous tools and equipment”, in your proposal for a replacement value of $500 or less. Costs shown in excess of $500 must be broken out separately.

3. Regardless of ownership, the rates to be used in determining equipment rental costs shall be the lowest cost from one of the following sources:

a. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers , Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule (use latest edition and applicable region) http://www.nps.gov/dscw/publicforms.htm#ct

STLI 01 26 01 - 5

b. Construction Blue Book

c. Local equipment rental rates, documented by actual invoice charges, or itemized vendor quotes.

4. The estimated equipment rates shall include the operating costs of all fuel, oil, lubrication, supplies, small tools, necessary attachments, ground engaging components, tires & tracks, routine repairs and maintenance (cost of major repair and overhaul is not allowed per FAR 31.105(d)(2)), depreciation, storage, insurance, and all incidentals. Mobilization, if applicable, may be included for equipment solely used on the modification work but must be listed separately.

5. Estimate the full rate for equipment only for the duration that the equipment will be utilized to accomplish the work of the modification.

6. Standby unit rates used are to be in accordance with paragraph 1.3, D, 2, above. If the

US Army Corp of Engineers is utilized then their standby rates prevail. If Bluebook or local equipment pricing is accepted, then ½ of the equipment costs minus any operating costs, major repair and overhaul will be accepted.

7. If equipment is in standby mode due solely to a documented NPS delay, the established standby rate shall apply from the first day of the delay.

8. Equipment that is not used and on the jobsite for up to five consecutive days may be classified at standby rates, provided that the equipment is or has been used solely to perform work on the modification and will be necessary to complete additional modification work. Equipment that is still on the jobsite but not in use after five consecutive days will not be considered in the modification pricing.

9. Requests for compensation for equipment stand by time must be justified, documented and itemized separately.

10. The estimated timeframe (daily, weekly, monthly) for use of the equipment must reflect the lowest cost to the Government.

E. Establishment and Application of Overhead and Profit Percentages:

1. Home Office Overhead and Profit (OH&P) shall be applied to direct costs only. Profit shall not be applied to overhead amounts; and overhead shall not be applied to profit.

Home office overhead shall contain only allowable, allocable, and reasonable costs per the contract documents and FAR Part 31. Profit percentages are based on risk factors found in FAR Part 31which have been applied to the specific type of work included in this project. Negotiated rates shall not exceed the following percentages for OH&P for contractor self-performed work:

Overhead………………10%

Profit…………………….6%

2. Total aggregate limit of markup (OH&P) for contractor and subcontractors on modification work shall not exceed 25%. The NPS will not be responsible for allocation of percentages between contractor and subcontractors at any tier.

3. If contractors form a partnership, than the partnership may only receive home office overhead and profit in the same amount as an individual contractor (refer to par

1.3,E,1 above). It is the responsibility of the partners to decide on the division of revenue.

4. Combined Increases and Decreases: On proposals involving both increases and decreases in the Contract Price, the overhead and profit mark-ups are required on the net increases and deducted on net decreases.

STLI 01 26 01 - 6

5. At no time can profit be calculated on Overhead or itself, it must be calculated on direct costs of work only.

1.2 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

A. Project Location: Statue of Liberty National Monument and Ellis Island, Statue Pedestal New

York, New York 10004.

B. The project will replace critical high voltage electrical switchgear located on Level 1P inside the

Monument on Liberty Island. The equipment to be replaced is 480 volt 800 amp capacity. The existing switchgear is outdated, and it is difficult to find replacement parts. The switchgear is critical because it powers essential functions including: the visitor elevator for accessibility, the secondary screening facility for Monument security, and 2 large chiller pumps for cooling.

C. The project will include, but not be limited to, the following:

1. Review site data and existing conditions.

2. Engage an Electrical Engineer licensed in the state of New York to select and specify replacement equipment that meets the requirements set forth in the Division 26

Specifications.

STLI 258838 01 11 00 - 2

1. Administrative:

a. Upon issuance of Notice To Proceed Contractor is to engage the Electrical Engineer to select and size the new equipment and provide an action submittal for NPS review.

b. Upon approval of primary equipment submittal, procure and provide delivery timeline of the new switchgear.

c. Submit for review all other material submittals required by this project manual (Division 1 through 26)

d. Provide a schedule for install, which is anticipated to take three full days of monument shut down.

2. Construction:

a. Will occur no less than 190 calendar days from NTP to allow for the NPS and Ferry Concessioner to block ticket sales for the Crown and Pedestal for the three days anticipated.

b. Actual construction is anticipated to take 5 days;

1) Day 1 (Monday) mobilization, delivery, preparation and selective demolition,

2) Day 2 (Tuesday) for de-energized demolition,

3) Days 3&4 (Wednesday & Thursday) for de-energized installation, and

4) Day 5 (Friday) for clean-up and demobilization

1.4 WORK UNDER OTHER CONTRACTS

A. General: Cooperate fully with separate contractors so work on those contracts may be carried out smoothly, without interfering with or delaying work under this Contract. Coordinate the Work of this Contract with work performed under separate contracts.

1. Concurrent Work: Fort Wood Stone Masonry Rehabilitation and Terreplein Paver replacement.

1.5 GOVERNMENT FURNISHED MATERIALS

A. NONE.

1.6 CONTRACTOR USE OF SITE

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

1. Limits: Confine construction operations to the areas in the immediate vicinity of the electric room.

2. Toilet Facilities – May use the facilities within the pedestal monument located at 2P.

3. No signs or advertising will be permitted. All directional, safety or informational signs must comply with OSHA or MUTCD requirements. All others must be approved by

NPS.

STLI 258838 01 11 00 - 3

4. The other buildings on Liberty Island will be off limits unless the contract work requires entry into the structures. These buildings are unoccupied and are stabilized only.

Contractor to enter existing buildings only to accomplish required work.

5. Working in the Park is different from many other construction locations in that special protection is given to cultural resources. Cultural Resources refers to any archeological, architectural, or landscape feature or artifact that contributes to the historic significance of the Park. Features are permanent or semi-permanent objects, such as architectural fragments, buried foundation walls, or pavements. Artifacts are any object made, used, or modified by people. An Archeological Site is an assemblage of artifacts or features that are in their original location. The National Park Service exists to preserve resources under its protection unimpaired for future generations. Carrying out Park construction projects requires more care for potential damage to historic resources than may be the case in commercial projects.

6. Archeological artifacts, architectural fragments, and natural objects are not to be taken from National Park units. It is illegal to remove materials from National Parks. Federal law provides penalties for doing so. If a contractor finds an artifact, it must be turned over to the Park.

7. It is also necessary to avoid damaging cultural resources. If, for example, an unanticipated obstruction, such as a buried foundation or wooden bulkhead, is found during excavation, one should not assume that demolishing it is acceptable. If a cultural resource has been damaged because it was not seen during excavation or other construction (for example, a buried wall is hit by a backhoe), or if an accident occurred

(for example, a vehicle scrapes a building or wall), this must be reported to the Park. In most cases, such damage will not impact the progress of construction activities, but it cannot be ignored or reported long after it occurred. Park staff can assist with issues that may arise.

8. A qualified archeological monitor will observe excavations in archeologically sensitive areas. Work can be conducted without the archeological monitor present, but it is helpful to all if the schedule for excavation be clearly communicated in advance. It is acceptable for contractors to layout excavation routes, mobilize equipment, and begin the excavation without having a monitor present. What is important is that excavated trenches remain open for inspection by the archeological monitor before backfilling.

9. Although it is very unlikely, from what is known about the locations for this project and the relatively shallow depths proposed for excavation, there is always the possibility that human remains will be found. By law, work must stop if human remains are found, and the remains may not be removed. The Park must be notified at once of a potential discovery. If bones are found, the NPS Archeologist will make a determination if they are human.

10. The existing trees and landscape are also the Park’s Cultural Resource and must also be protected and preserved. Avoid parking or stockpiling materials adjacent to a tree, under or within the drip line of the tree’s canopy.

B. Storage of Materials: Confine storage of materials to the areas designated as Contractor

Staging/Storage during the preconstruction site visit. (generally, the area in the immediate vicinity of the electrical room at 1P).

C. Parking on Ellis/Liberty State Park.

STLI 258838 01 11 00 - 4

1. Contractor and its subcontractors are responsible to shuttle workers to Ellis Island.

a. Limited parking will be made available for Contractor’s management staff, deliveries and loading.

b. A maximum of four (4) Ellis Island parking placards will be issued to the

Contractor for use during this project allowing the Contractor to park in Yellow spaces in the south lot. Any project vehicle not displaying an issued placard is subject to ticketing or tow. Additional placards may be authorized by the

Contracting Officer’s Representative provided an evaluation of available space and project need deem them appropriate.

D. Preservation of Natural Features:

1. Prevent damage to natural surroundings. Restore damaged areas, repairing or replacing damaged trees and plants, at no additional expense to the Government.

2. Provide temporary barriers to protect existing trees and plants and root zones.

3. Do not remove, injure, or destroy trees or other plants without prior approval. Consult with Contracting Officer and remove agreed-on roots and branches that interfere with construction.

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

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

E. Driveways and Entrances: Keep driveways, parking areas, boat docks and entrances serving premises clear and available to Government, Government's employees, and emergency vehicles at all times. Do not use these areas for parking or storage of materials.

1. Schedule deliveries to minimize use of driveways and entrances.

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

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

G. Hauling Restrictions: Comply with all legal load restrictions in the hauling of materials. Load restrictions on park roads are identical to the 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 Contractor of liability for damage which may result from moving of equipment.

1.7 PUBLIC USE OF SITE

A. Contractor shall at all times conduct his operations to ensure the least inconvenience to the public.

Building closures will be permitted, when required, upon specific approval of Contracting Officer.

B. Questions from Press, Interested Parties and Public Relations

1. Any questions raised by the general public or reporters to Contractor regarding the project, or the Park, should be deferred to the NPS. The Contractor should not answer

STLI 258838 01 11 00 - 5

any questions; rather they should provide the name and number of the Acting Chief of

Professional Services, Chris Parsons. (646)-356-2173 chris_parsons@nps.gov

Memorandum

To: All Contractors, Subcontractors, Concessionaires & Partners of the National Park Service

From: Captain Peter Culver

Liberty District Commander, United States Park Police

Subject: Guidelines for Park Access and Credentialing

The Statue of Liberty National Monument and Ellis Island Immigration Museum are American Icons of freedom, recognizable around the world. The United States Park Police provide law enforcement and security services at this National Park Service site. Access to this site is restricted and regulated by our “Guidelines for Park Access & Credentialing” plan. This comprehensive plan is designed to enhance security operations at the park. Your cooperation and adherence to these guidelines is required and appreciated.

Attachments (1) Guidelines for Park Access & Credentialing (revised 12/3/2018)

Revised 12/3/2018

Statue of Liberty N.M. & Ellis Island Guidelines for Park Access & Credentialing

The following rules and procedures shall guide all Contractors, Subcontractors, Concessionaires and Partners of the National Park Service through the process of obtaining a Park ID for authorized access to the Park.

Park Identification Cards

• A completed U.S. Park Police Identification Card Application & Background Check Request Form (attached) must be submitted to the U.S. Park Police (USPP) at least (2) weeks in advance of the employment or work start date. All ID applications shall be submitted to Mr. Douglas Osoba, U.S.

Park Police Administrative Assistant. The USPP Administrative Assistant’s desk is located inside the Ellis Island Police Office (EPO); see attached map. Direct contact: douglas_osoba@nps.gov Phone: 646-356-2121.

• All criminal history must be included on the form. Although the main concern of the USPP is serious criminal activity, and/or appearance on terrorist watch lists, omission of minor criminal incidents is a credibility issue which will delay approval and may be cause for denial. Intentionally providing false information in any way will result in denial of the application.

• Once the application is approved you will be required to arrange an appointment with the USPP

Administrative Assistant to have your photograph taken and ID card issued. You must come in person to EPO for this appointment. Digital photographs will not be accepted via email.

• ID cards will be valid for the anticipated term of the project or for a (1) year period for concessioners and long term contractors.

• A replacement ID card will not be issued unless the expired or damaged card is returned. If the ID card is lost or stolen a report must be immediately filed with the USPP. The USPP case number must be provided to the USPP Administrative Assistant prior to issuance of the replacement card.

• Short-term contractors & sub-contractors (requiring access for up to 7 calendar days) do not require a

Park ID, but will need to be placed on a list to obtain a day-pass at the service entrance. This can be accomplished by requesting access for non-NPS credentialed contractors or visitors through your NPS Project Manager or designated NPS point of contact. These requests will be routed to Ms.

Jennifer Getter, Confidential Assistant to the Superintendent, who will have the requests approved and added to the access list. Direct contact: Jennifer_Getter@nps.gov Phone: 646-356-2102.

• The day-pass program is designed to allow access to visitors and/or contractors who will be on site for a very brief period. If we identify that you are attempting to utilize the day-pass program for a period beyond (7) calendar days you will be removed from the list and prohibited from entering the park.

mailto:Jennifer_Getter@nps.gov

Be prepared to present your Park ID/day-pass to a USPP Officer or National Park Service (NPS) employee if you are in an area closed to the general public. Generally, the ID/day pass should be worn on an outer garment and kept readily visible at all times. You will also be required to present a Federal or State issued photo ID at the service entrance during the check-in & screening process.

Violations of this policy will be documented and relayed to your NPS point of contact.

Truck Deliveries & Access

Deliveries via Post IV can be arranged (7) days a week, between the hours of 0700 to 1400.

(48) hours advance notice is required.

Vehicles attempting to enter the Park through Post IV in Liberty State Park must be placed on the access log by your NPS point of contact. All concessionaires/project managers will have a designated person who will act as a single point of contact with the NPS. This individual will be responsible for properly completing the Post IV & Battery Park access request forms (attached) and providing these forms to the Confidential Assistant to the Superintendent prior to 1400 hours each day. The list for Monday will be submitted Friday afternoon along with any requests for weekend access.

All trucks must be equipped with a lift gate for canine access. The center isle of the truck must be left open to allow for a walkthrough. Delivery trucks cannot be overloaded, or the driver will be required to empty out the truck’s contents at Post IV for canine inspection. Some deliveries may not be easily screened (soil or cement for example) and an officer may need to be present when off-loaded.

The driver’s name, company name and receiving company or NPS point of contact must be provided.

Driver and all delivery personnel must carry a valid photo ID. The driver must have a bill of lading.

The time of delivery must be provided.

Armored vehicles must be on the Post IV access list. When an armored vehicle arrives at Post IV the driver must stop the vehicle and make contact with the USPP Officer. The driver must provide valid photo identification and open the back of the vehicle for a visual only inspection. At no time will the driver be asked to leave the vehicle unattended. Barring any exigent circumstance, a USPP Officer or canine team will not enter the armored vehicle. A canine team will conduct an exterior sweep of the vehicle.

There may be random inspections of departing motor vehicles & vessels.

All persons and bags are subject to search and canine inspection when entering or departing the park and at all times while on-site.

Unscheduled or late deliveries (whether by boat or Post IV bridge) will be denied access and turned away by USPP.

Barge Deliveries & Access

All barges & vessels will be screened by a USPP Canine Team prior to entering the maritime security zones or arriving at Liberty or Ellis Island. Be advised that unauthorized entry into the USCG security zones around the islands is a violation of law and punishable by appropriate law enforcement action including summons issuance and/or arrest. At no time should a vessel enter the security zone without permission. (See attached security zone map)

Emergency requests may be made by calling the 24 Hour USPP Dispatch Center at (718) 338-3988.

Deliveries by water, with a qualified need to go directly to Liberty or Ellis Island, must be arranged at least (48) hours in advance and are by strict appointment only.

Canine Sweep requests for off-site locations such as Miller’s Launch require dedicated personnel and will be considered on a case by case basis. Additional canine teams may be required to accommodate these requests. The NPS/USPP will provide a cost estimate to the contractor for services outside 0600-1400 or at locations other than Post IV (NJ), Liberty State Park (NJ), or Battery Park (NY) where canine teams are typically assigned. The contractor will be responsible for reimbursement of all expenses related to these special request sweeps. A minimum of (48) hours advance notice is required and a weekly summary of scheduled deliveries is preferred.

Canine sweeps for waterside deliveries may be conducted at a pre-arranged local boat ramp, marina or Miller’s Launch in Staten Island (NY). After the sweep is completed the vessel will either be escorted by The USPP Marine Patrol Unit (MPU) or be monitored on CCTV while entering the security zone. In some cases a USPP Officer may remain present on the barge while it is in transit to Liberty Island.

Prohibited Items

All firearms (even if licensed in a State) Air Guns, BB/Pellet guns & all ammunition Knives, machetes, and all bladed instruments All weapons including items that can be considered or used as weapons Self-defense items including stun guns and pepper spray/mace Bats, clubs and all striking instruments, including brass knuckles Flammable liquids, dangerous chemicals and aerosols are prohibited Alcohol and all narcotics/drugs are prohibited ALL Explosives including fireworks

Restricted Areas

Contractors and subcontractors are only authorized to be on-site in a designated work zone. Individuals may not enter closed or restricted areas, or take park property as souvenirs. The vast majority of buildings and other park resources are historic in nature and therefore protected by ARPA

(Archeological Resource Protection Act). This Federal Law protects the resources against theft, destruction and vandalism. ARPA imposes severe penalties for these types of violations.

Parking

Parking on Ellis Island is limited and restricted. Contractors will be allotted parking permit hang tags per the contract documents. All vehicles must display the hang tag when on island and only park in designated areas if outside of the Contractor’s staging and laydown area. In general, Contractor parking will be restricted to the area north of the Baggage and Dormitory building. If additional parking is authorized, then the Contractor/Subcontractor vehicles are restricted to YELLOW parking spaces as designated by yellow wheel stops. At no time may any contractor vehicle park in a space with green, grey or black & white wheel stops, nor in any area designated by signage or striping as no parking. Violators of this policy will be issued summonses and may be towed at the owner’s expense. Parking in unauthorized areas is prohibited.

(See attached parking map).

The contractor is free to manage parking for itself and subcontractors within the designated staging and laydown area. The Contractor will need to coordinate swing space for parking or alternate off-site parking needed to accommodate parking. Any contractor vehicles that park in Liberty State Park must use the metered day lot off of Audrey Zapp Drive, located west of the Railroad Terminal building. Liberty State Park may allow parking in other locations if the Contractor coordinates with Liberty State Park management and pays the required permit fees. The National Park Service will not be liable for any fines if vehicle owners are ticketed or towed for illegal parking in Liberty State Park.

The Confidential Assistant to the Superintendent may authorize Post IV to issue a limited number of yellow “Visitor” parking placards for single day use for deliveries or other contract activities.

If an assigned parking placard is lost or stolen, a report must be immediately filed with the USPP.
