PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE

LEGACY REGION 7 ALASKA

GENERAL

BACKGROUND:

The Wollard House is the property of the US Fish and Wildlife Service (the government). Contamination at the site is associated with overfills from a former 500-gallon underground heating oil storage tank (UST), which was removed in 2015. During the removal of the tank, contaminated soil was removed. An additional 16 cubic yards were removed in August of 2018. During this removal event, additional contamination was found at approximately 6.5 bgs for DRO. Additional contamination could possibly be located northeast and east of the original excavation as this area has not been disturbed.

The contractor shall coordinate through the government with ADEC to accomplish the goal of horizontally and vertically determining the remaining concentration of contaminated soil and conduct ground water sampling to determine if ground water is affected by collecting all appropriate soil and groundwater samples.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS:

McGrath is located approximately 220 air miles from Anchorage, Alaska. Flight time from Anchorage is approximately one hour. Flights are available by commercial aircraft. McGrath should be considered a remote area and the availability of any equipment or resources in the city is unknown. The Contractor shall allow, within the proposal, for those unknowns. Constant contact with the CO, COTR, and ADEC (through USFWS) is vital as site conditions may be fluid and require quick evaluation to get the best solution for the government. All permits or other documents, especially those necessary for the ADEC, shall be obtained beforehand.

CONTRACTOR QUALIFICATIONS:

Contractor experience must be approved by the Contracting Officer and will be based upon submission of the following information by the Contractor: Experience: Name and location of a similar project completed by the Contractor, including the name and telephone number of the purchaser of the services. Comply with ADEC regulations and applicable requirements of USEPA, ADEC, OSFM, and OSHA regulation.

WORK DESCRIPTION:

The purpose of this project is to provide all labor, resources, equipment, materials, permits, and services to delineate horizontal and vertical soil and groundwater contamination, provide updated Site Characterization, and Corrective Action Completion Report (CACR) based on previous activities conducted at this site and this investigation at the Wollard House in McGrath, Alaska. The work to be accomplished is:

1. Delineate soil contamination vertically and laterally and identify amount of soil that needs to be remediate and cost estimates for treatment such as removal, treatment in place, or attenuation.

Provide pros and cons for each method. A minimum of twelve (12) soil samples will be taken.

Workplan will designate where soil samples will be taken.

2. Install groundwater wells and conduct sampling to delineate groundwater contamination (a minimum of two wells will be installed). Provide cost for installation of additional wells and sampling. If additional wells are required because of free product in wells or samples identified concentrations above groundwater standards. Workplan will designate where groundwater wells will be installed.

3. Recover free product if any wells have free products in the well during the site visit. If the wells run dry, let the wells recharge and measure free product levels again prior to collecting free product again. Note: All wells with free product shall be pumped to recover free product identified.

4. Properly dispose of all soil boring soil that is contaminated, groundwater sampling water, and free product collected from wells. Complete the ADEC Contaminated Media Transport and Treatment or Disposal Approval Form. The form shall be submitted, prior to transport, to ADEC for approval in accordance with 18 AAC 75.325(i) and 18 AAC 75.360.

5. Develop a Site Characterization Report incorporating previous reports and current data collected during this contract.

6. Develop a Corrective Action Completion Report (CACR) that discusses the cost and pros/cons of mitigating the site using active remediation, engineered barriers, institutional controls (Land Use Control Plan), or a combination of these methods. The contractor shall provide a final recommendation based on this evaluation.

Please refer to DEC’s Field Sampling Guidance October 2024 for a list of analyte testing required for soil and water samples. This document is available at https://dec.alaska.gov/spar/csp/guidance-forms/.
