About this file
This is a Scope of Work (SOW) for a Request for Quotations (RFQ) numbered 140P8426Q0076 for cleaning and inspecting four water tanks at Crater Lake National Park in Klamath County, Oregon.
The base work requires contractors to inspect and clean tank walls, floors, and remove sediment from four potable water storage tanks: one 150,000-gallon tank at park headquarters (Munson), two 100,000-gallon tanks at Mazama, and one 185,000-gallon tank at Garfield Reservoir. The Munson and Mazama tanks are accessible by service roads, while the Garfield tank is accessible only by hiking trail. All work must comply with American Water Works Association (AWWA) and commercial diving standards, including OSHA regulations for confined spaces and diving operations. Certified divers must perform underwater cleaning and inspection, fully encapsulated in dry suits and helmets, disinfected according to AWWA Standard C652-02. The contractor is responsible for all sediment removal, with costic sediment requiring off-site disposal following federal, state, and local regulations. Optional repair work identified during inspection must be presented as a change order quote using the same pricing structure as the original bid. Written and digital reports documenting sediment removal and inspection findings are required upon completion.
The period of performance is 45 days from award, with work anticipated between September 14 and October 30, 2026, with Garfield tank prioritized due to potential seasonal weather impacts and snowfall shutdowns. Quality control daily reports must be submitted documenting work progress. Water supply to Crater Lake must remain uninterrupted during inspection. Post-cleaning water testing for chlorine residual and turbidity must meet Oregon Department of Environmental Quality drinking water standards, conducted by the contractor in the presence of a licensed NPS water operator. Contractors must provide temporary restroom facilities, comply with park traffic and vehicle regulations, implement resource protection measures for endangered species and archaeological resources, and conduct work Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding government holidays. Pre-work deliverables include designation of a Project Lead/Project Manager and a baseline project schedule.

1. Contractor’s written designation of their Project Lead/Project Manager, the primary point of contact for the COR and must be onsite at all times work is occurring. Email contact info
(name, title, phone, email) to the Contracting Officer and COR.
2. Project Schedule - Submit a baseline schedule with start date before commencement of onsite work. The period of performance is short, 45 days after award, so Contractor’s project schedule can focus on only the major milestones/key tasks/key phases of work through being ready for inspection, and contract completion date. Government anticipates period of performance to be from September 14 – October 30, 2026. Weather may affect total completion to which a seasonal shutdown period may need to go into effect pausing the project during winter months due to snowfall, so the priority is to complete work on the
Garfield tank first.
