About this file

This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) for the safe decommissioning, demolition, and disposal of a High Expansion Foam (HEF) system located in Building 1176 at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska. The project is being executed by the 168th Contracting Office and Civil Engineer (CE) division.

The primary objective requires the contractor to safely decommission and dispose of the HEF system in compliance with Alaska State Regulation Chapter 62. Specific deliverables include draining and disposing of the metallic tank, piping, bladder, and all HEF-contaminated materials at an approved hazardous waste treatment facility. The contractor must obtain disposal certificates documenting facility information, material quantities, acceptance dates, and destruction methods, and maintain complete accountability for all HEF concentrate and solutions from origination through final disposition. Tank and piping work must be performed by a Licensed Sprinkler System Installer or specialized fire suppression contractor with at least three similar projects completed over a minimum of six months. The contractor is responsible for providing potable water for rinsing, implementing spill prevention measures including floor coverings and spill kits, and bearing all costs and liability for accidental releases.

Prior to commencing work, the contractor must submit an acceptable Workplan (WP) and Accident Prevention Plan (APP) to the 168 Contracting Office, including an Abbreviated Accident Prevention Plan (AAPP) for post-award site visits submitted no later than 14 calendar days before each visit. The WP must incorporate applicable sections of EM 385-1-1 and include a Site Safety and Health Plan, Environmental Protection Plan with Spill Control and Waste Management Plans, and a detailed Quality Control Plan. The contractor must designate a single point of contact, employ an on-site Site Safety and Health Officer and superintendent, and submit Periodic Status Reports including HEF accountability and disposal certificates. All personnel require security clearance processing including Antiterrorism Level I training, E-Verify verification, and compliance with FPCON and HPCON measures. All submittals must be provided in uncompressed PDF format with linked table of contents and source files in Microsoft Office Suite format, delivered via email or DoD SAFE.

Contractor must submit an acceptable WP and APP in a timely and efficient manner that conforms to task requirements and applicable standards.

Performance Metric: The accuracy of the information provided within the document as well as the number of submissions required to obtain Government acceptance of the document will be evaluated be the basis of the Contractor’s performance evaluation for this task.

Measurement Method: The Government will review the WP/APP for their ability to meet project objectives, and for proper and safe application of procedures and equipment. The Government will review the WP/APP and provide comments to the Contractor, which will require a written response from the Contractor and/or possible changes to the WP.

Remedy: If non-compliance issues are noted, the Contractor shall summarize the actions to be taken and re-submit a revised WP at no additional cost to the Government.

Specific Task Requirements:

- The Contractor shall prepare and submit for approval a WP to the 168 Contracting Office. The WP must include applicable sections of EM 385-1-1, tailored to the SOW provided. The Contractor shall prepare and submit for approval separate, stand-alone, acceptable WP and APP.

The APP must address and include site specific information for each work area in the SOW. The WP shall describe the specific work proposed to meet the objectives and requirements of the SOW. The WP shall address all aspects of fieldwork and shall identify staging/storage area requirements and the specific location on the installation. The Contractor shall submit a project schedule, capturing the ability to perform all tasks requirements within project timelines. The Contractor’s schedule shall include dates of fire protection system outages. The WP shall contain:

- APP (P. 53, EM 385-1-1), which includes a Site Safety and Health Plan (SSHP) (P. 735, EM 385-1-1)

- Quality Control Plan (QCP) see attachment 10, for details on the QCP. The QCP shall be detailed and comprehensive covering all aspects of work, as applicable. Other subplans or elements (i.e., technical management, fieldwork and procedures, etc.) shall be required as necessary to support the Contractor’s technical approach.

- Once a site-specific WP has been approved by the installation and accepted by the COR, then the contractor may proceed with the work.

- The Contractor is authorized post award site visits to the project location as part of supporting preparation for the WP. The Contractor shall notify the CE Project Manager (PM) prior to each planned site visit and shall prepare and submit for approval an Abbreviated Accident Prevention Plan (AAPP).

AAPP must be approved by CE PM prior to the site visit and shall be submitted no later than 14 calendar days before the site visit. The Government reserves the right to have a CE PM representative accompany the Contractor to post award site visits; therefore, the Contractor shall coordinate and schedule the site visits accordingly. The Contractor shall provide a trip report to the PM within 14 calendar days after conclusion of the site visit(s).

Objective: The contractor shall safely decommission, demolish, and dispose of the High Expansion Foam (HEF) system located in Building 1176 on Eielson Air Force Base (AFB).

1. The demolished HEF metallic tank may be shredded or cut off to facilitate shipment and disposal at an approved hazardous disposal facility.

2. Execute all disposal activities in accordance with (IAW) the Alaska State Regulation for the Disposal of High Expansion Foam (Chapter 62): Ensure all HEF-classified hazardous waste is routed to and processed at an approved hazardous waste treatment facility.

F. Metallic Tank and Piping Disposal.

The Contractor shall

1. Dispose of the existing HEF tank and piping up to the proportioner after draining HEF followed by rinsate, processes described on page 4. Collect and dispose of all HEF contaminated solid waste, to include the metallic tank and all associated piping and incidental waste (i.e., waste produced while conducting fieldwork such as wipes, absorbent pads, gloves, Tyvek suits, etc.) The removed tank and piping may be shredded or cut to facilitate shipment/disposal. The metal bladder tank, bladder, and piping shall be removed and treated as hazardous waste and disposed of at an approved disposal facility.

2. Evidence of HEF Disposal. The Contractor shall obtain documentation from the disposal facility (certificate of disposal) for all material delivered to the facility for disposal. The disposal certificates shall include:

- Identify the disposal facility, name, address, phone number, facility (treatment, storage, disposal), permit expiration date,

- date HEF material was accepted by the disposal facility,

- for disposal methods that include destruction, a statement certifying the fact of destruction of the identified material, including the date(s) of disposal and process used.

3. HEF Disposal Accountability.

More specifically, HEF concentrate and solutions shall be accounted for at each originating location (i.e., building, hanger, etc.). Quantities of other HEF contaminated system components requiring disposal shall also be accounted for. Disposal certificates for all materials destroyed shall indicate quantities of HEF concentrate/solution (typically weights) or weights of solid components (i.e., bladders, etc.) treated as applicable.

4. Tank and Piping Work Staffing Requirements. Tank and piping work shall be performed by a Licensed Sprinkler System Installer or a specialized fire suppression contractor who is regularly engaged in the installation or repair of the type and complexity of systems specified in the SOW, and who has served in a similar capacity for at least three systems that have been performed in the manner intended for a period of not less than 6 months.

The Contractor shall submit the licensed sprinkler installer or specialized fire suppression contractor’s qualifications to 168 Contracting Office prior to the start of work.

6. Protection Against HEF Releases. The Contractor shall take all means prudent to be prepared to take immediate action in the event of accidental HEF spill. Minimal spill protection measures to be taken by the Contractor shall include floor/ground covering for the work site at potential HEF release points and a spill kit at the work site appropriate for tank/piping being drained.
