Performance Work Statement (PWS) Snell Lock Upstream Stoplog Painting and Refurbishment

1. Background Information

The Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation (GLS) is a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation within the U.S. Department of Transportation which operates and maintains that portion of the St.

Lawrence Seaway in US territorial waters between Lake Ontario and Montreal, Quebec. A major part of the Corporation’s mission of facilitating the safe and efficient passage of commercial vessels through the Seaway is the operation and maintenance of Eisenhower and Snell Locks located in Massena, New York.

2. Mission/Purpose

GLS is seeking a contractor to perform painting and mechanical refurbishment of eight (8) steel stoplogs at Snell Lock in Massena, NY. The stoplogs are steel structures resembling trusses with a plate on one side that are stacked to create a dam that allows the Lock to be dewatered for winter work or in case of emergency

3. Scope

The stoplogs are steel structures resembling trusses with a plate on one side that are stacked to create a dam that allows the Lock to be dewatered for winter work or in case of emergency. Each stoplog’s overall dimensions is approximately 86’ long, 9’-2” wide with a height that varies between 3’-6” and 5’- 10”. Stoplog weights vary from approximately 54,000 lbs. to 57,000 lbs. each.

For this project, there will be: two Type A stoplogs; three Type B stoplogs; and three Type C stoplogs for a total of eight (8) stoplogs. Each stoplog has rollers on each end and rubber seals on the bottom. GLS requires blasting, painting, minor structural steel weld repairs, removal, and replacement of all stoplog rollers and all rubber seals and hardware. All stoplogs included in this scope of work are located in a pit at the west end of Snell Lock on the south side. GLS will remove the stoplogs from the pit upon coordination with the Contractor in order for the Contractor to perform work on them.

The existing stoplog coatings are unknown but are assumed to contain original lead-based paint (LBP) on at least a portion of the stoplogs. The Contractor shall be designated authorized agent for waste generation for the project and perform all duties required in that role. The new coating system will be Vinyl type Zinc Rich Coating for Impacted Steel Structures formulated and applied in accordance with United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) system 3-A-Z.

The stoplogs are used for impacted immersion and shall be cleaned to an SSPC-SP 5 White Metal Blast. The paint standard document is UFGS/USACE sp. Division 09 07 02 Painting Hydraulic Structures (February 2020 edition).

General Work Area:

GLS has designated a location on the south side of Snell Lock for the performance of this scope of work.

The designated work area is adjacent to active GLS Lock operations. The Contractor shall perform their work such that GLS operations, employees, contractors, and other personnel, as well as the environment, are not adversely affected. This strict requirement must be accounted for in the Contractor’s work, stoplog handling, site, and containment plans.

Mobilization and Containment:

The initial mobilization phase shall be followed by any activities required for building a work area and containment for lead-based paint (LBP) abrasive blasting.

All work must be performed per the Contractor’s approved Project and Waste Management plans, complying with the requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).

Stoplog Handling:

Stoplogs must be turned back over to GLS for placing back into their storage pit in a specific order based on whether the stoplog is Type A, B, or C. The Contractor shall coordinate this closely with the GLS Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR).

All stoplog handling and moving operations shall be done with extreme care to avoid damaging them.

This scope includes all activities pertaining to the rigging, lifting, and handling of stoplogs both to and from the worksite, and any stoplog orientation manipulation required while performing work on the stoplogs.

Main Work Phase:

Furnish all plant, personnel, material, and approved project plans to perform cleaning, coating removal, and coating application.

Perform Quality Control (QC) activities and minor structural steel repairs (as designated by COR).

Execute mechanical refurbishment of the stoplogs and waste handling in accordance with this document and all pertinent regulations and standards.

Required Certifications:

Contractor: Contractors removing and applying paint coatings shall have at the time of bid and maintain for the duration of the project Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP) QP1 and QP2 certifications.

Environmental Representative (ER): The Contractor shall have an independent, third-party Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH), or EPA-certified Lead Project Designer/Supervisor with a minimum of 3 years industrial lead abatement experience to perform the required environmental QC inspections.

Supervisor/Competent Person: The Contractor shall have an AMPP C-3 qualified Lead Removal Supervisor present on site during all coating removal and lead handling work.

QC Paint Inspector: The Contractor shall have a dedicated AMPP CIP Level 2 certified paint inspector on-site during all coating removal and application work. The QC inspector shall have no production-related duties in accordance with AMPP QP1/QP2.

Qualified Person: The Contractor shall have a coating applicator with documented evidence applying USACE vinyl coating systems per USACE/UFGS specifications on site during all coating work.

Inspections:

Quality Control (QC): Full daily QC documentation is required for the Contractor’s work and shall be submitted to the COR daily.

Quality Assurance (QA): Specific hold points shall be coordinated for QC as well as QA inspection for each stoplog. The Contractor is responsible for providing GLS’s third-party QA inspector with means and ability to access all areas of the work for their inspection, as well as sufficient time to perform those activities adequately.

Refurbishment Specifics:

Rollers: The mechanical refurbishment portion includes the careful removal of four large and four smaller rollers and their shafts and hardware from each end of each stoplog prior to blasting, as well as their reinstallation after recoating.

Seals: Removal and replacement of all rubber “J-bulb” shaped stoplog seals, appurtenances, and hardware.

Shafts: Stoplog roller shafts shall be carefully removed by the Contractor so that GLS personnel can perform refurbishment on them. If shafts are damaged by the Contractor and cannot be refurbished, the Contractor shall supply new shafts to replace the damaged ones (conforming to a GLS approved print with QC documentation).

Springs: Removal, coating, and reinstallation of leaf springs- two per stoplog.

Piping: One stoplog contains airline piping and supports that may require removal, reassembly, and coating. If the condition of the airline piping is deemed unfit for service by GLS, replacement by the Contractor will be required.
