Project # 437-24-101 Fargo VA Healthcare System

Scope of Work

Project Number: 437-24-101 Project Title: Replace UST and Leak Detection

A. General Intention

The Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, and equipment to replace existing UST’s (Underground Storage Tank) #1, #2, #3, #4, #8, existing AST’s (Aboveground Storage Tank) #4, and #5, along with existing #1, #2, #3, #4, #8, #9 and #10 UST interconnected below-grade piping systems on the Fargo VA campus including designing flexible spill containment liners, tertiary containment barriers, encasement barriers, waterproof manway covers, and Auto Tank Gauges (ATG) with integrated monitoring and reporting. Environmental assessments, soil boring tests and geotechnical drilling at four VA site locations required, along with compliance with physical security and resiliency standards for intrusion and blast protection. A phasing plan to ensure zero downtime for existing backup generators with temporary power solutions shall be proposed & followed. Additional work includes cathodic protection system design, semi-automatic pump clarification systems, and establish control points for future construction.

B. Statement of Work

Description of Work: Work shall include, but shall not be limited to, providing all labor, materials, equipment, etc. necessary to complete Fargo VA Health Care System project 437-24-101, Replace UST’s & Leak Detection in accordance with this Scope of Work. The UST’s support Critical Facilities and will follow requirements for Critical facilities in accordance with the Physical Security and Resiliency Design Manual (PSRDM), October 1, 2020, Revised 05-01-2024, the contract documents, all applicable federal, state and local codes as well as the NFPA requirements.

The construction work schedule shall account for and ensure that the VA is Minimally impacted in terms of services provided to our customers, as well as any coordination with other contractors on site.

Work hours between 6 AM – 6 PM shall be preferred and required whenever possible to minimize disruptions to hospital services with Holidays as needed.

All fuel & boiler shutdowns shall have 3-week notification and approval prior to date of shutdown to allow for notification of affected staff. Preprint Total project timeline is estimated at approximately 18 months, encompassing pre-construction planning, environmental review, construction & remediation, and final reporting. Adjustments may be made based on site conditions, weather, permitting processes, and coordination with concurrent VA projects.

Lock Out Tag Out (LOTO) procedures shall be required for all utility testing, and some tests may require confined/enclosed space work conditions and training.
