GENERAL INFORMATION

1.0 Description of Services. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, supervision, management, tools, supplies, materials, equipment, transportation, incidental engineering, and any other items necessary to provide inclinometer sensor readings and geotechnical site evaluations and submit electronic reports with findings and recommendations for 13 existing inclinometers as described in this Statement of Work (SOW). The installed inclinometer sensors are located on Honda Ridge and CDT Access Roads located on South Vandenberg SFB, which are important access roads required for long-term mission-critical support and slope stability. The performance of inclinometer sensor readings and geotechnical evaluations is currently beyond the technical capabilities of SLD 30 personnel. The Contractor will provide the required services identified in this SOW to fulfill the Government’s requirement for dedicated monitoring of the road’s stability.

1.1 Background. The 30 Civil Engineer Squadron (CES) is a key player in assuring access to space by providing mission infrastructure support to real property facilities and transportation systems for the Launch and Test Range System and Western Range operations at the Space Launch Delta (SLD) 30, Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB), California. 30 CES’ main objective is to ensure high performance confidence levels required to maintain over 200 miles of paved roads and streets essential for the transport of missile and space guided weapons, as well as support of aircraft test and evaluation missions in support of the Department of Defense (DoD), National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), Missile Defense Agency (MDA), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), National Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA), and several other commercial space and governmental agencies. The intent of this requirement is to obtain inclinometer sensor readings on nine (9) existing inclinometer sensors installed on Honda Ridge Road and four (4) existing inclinometer sensors installed on CDT Access Road to determine slope stability. (See Appendix A, VSFB inclinometer site map for exact site locations.)

2.0 Scope of Work.

2.1 Inclinometer Readings and Geotechnical Evaluations. The Contractor shall provide a State of California licensed geotechnical engineer or licensed engineering geologist to perform and oversee inclinometer sensor readings, site evaluations, data analysis and interpretation for nine (9) sites on Honda Ridge Rd. and four (4) sites on CDT Access Rd. (see Appendix A, VSFB Inclinometer Site Map for exact locations). The work schedule for the base contract year will require the Contractor to perform sensor readings for all existing 13 inclinometers between the period of 1 September 2025 and 15 October 2025. A second set of readings for all existing 13 inclinometer sensors will be performed by the Contractor between the period of 15 April 2026 and 31 May 2026. Thereafter, during the following four option years (OY), the Contractor shall perform a set of readings once annually for all 13 existing inclinometer sensors between 15 April and 1 August. (CLIN X001)

2.2 Location of Inclinometer Sensors. VSFB’s 13 existing inclinometer sensors range in depth from 27 feet to 58 feet.

It is highly desirable that the same inclinometer sensor reader equipment be used when performing readings to reduce potential calibration errors in the resulting data. Inclinometer readings shall be taken in both the north-south direction, “A axis” and in a parallel “B axis” east-west direction. Inclinometer sensor readings data shall be recorded at two-foot intervals, and a table will be included in the Contractor’s submittals which lists the readings taken at each depth. In their first readings and evaluations report, the Contractor will include the initial readings from the historical data listed in Appendix B, Historical Inclinometer Sensor Readings. NOTE: Inclinometers #I-24 and #I-25, on Honda Ridge Rd., are newly installed; therefore, historical data is not available for these two inclinometer locations.
