STATEMENT OF WORK

The contractor shall provide all material, equipment and labor for the transportation and recycling of clean wood generated at Tobyhanna Army Depot (TYAD). The contractor shall provide a sufficient quantity of roll-off containers as determined by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), at the location(s) specified by TYAD. The current need would be for six (40 yard) roll-off containers on location at various buildings. The contractor’s containers will be loaded with clean wood by government personnel. The contractor will pick up the full container(s) of clean wood and transport them to a facility where the wood shall be recycled and/or reused (e.g., shredded into mulch). The contractor will provide a safe, functioning, good condition roll-off every container swap. The contractor will be required to pick up and replace 6 containers per week at a monthly cost.

The clean wood generated on-site that is to be recycled by the contractor is any scrap wood that has not been painted, treated, or rotted. Clean wood can include all of the following forms:

pallets, skids, crates, spools and dimension lumber. Any or all of the clean wood may contain the following acceptable materials: nails, screws, bolts, wire, banding, angle irons and/or small amounts of plastic wrap and/or shipping labels. Clean wood should not be contaminated by other materials or debris such as other recyclable materials (e.g., items made of steel, aluminum, brass, copper, wire and cable, cardboard, shrink-wrap) or trash. It is the contractor’s responsible to check the container for contamination prior to removal. If there is a contaminated issue it is to be reported to the COR immediately.

Whenever possible, government personnel will accommodate the contractor’s preference for heavier loads by crushing the clean wood collected in the contractor’s containers. However, the contractor shall empty and return all full containers of clean wood, whether or not the wood has been crushed. TYAD is not responsible for any damage to the contractor’s containers as a result of loading or moving containers, or as a result of compacting wood in the containers. Potential container damage and normal wear should be factored into pricing. The contractor is also required to track weight totals, pickup dates, and provide timely invoicing as requested by the

COR.

STATEMENT OF WORK: The work described herein pertains to collection of all clean wood placed in the contractor’s containers at TYAD. The collection process includes: tarping and taking full containers off TYAD, delivering empty containers to TYAD, relocating the contractor’s containers if needed, and increasing or decreasing the number of containers according to the needs of TYAD.

a. Performance: Any work done under contract that is not adequately performed by the contractor, or any work that presents a threat to the health and welfare of employees, to the environment, or to government property shall be cause for immediate stoppage of work. The contractor shall be given the opportunity to correct any cited deficiencies, however, continued lack of compliance with specification requirements by the contractor may be cause for default as determined by the Contracting Officer. The contractor is responsible for any damage to TYAD property occurring as a result of their work.

b. Recycling: All material collected shall be properly contained, tarped, transported and recycled in accordance with applicable regulations.

c. Hazardous Spills: The contractor shall not bring vehicles leaking any hazardous fluids (e.g., engine oil, hydraulic oil, engine coolant, fuel) onto TYAD. Should the contractor’s vehicle begin to leak hazardous fluids while at TYAD, the contractor shall immediately park and turn off the vehicle, place a container beneath the leak and notify TYAD of the spill. The contractor shall also have spill cleanup material.

d. Damage: The contractor shall comply with all TYAD vehicle operating requirements (e.g., speed limits). Should the contractor cause any damage to, or sustain any damage from, any TYAD equipment or property, the contractor shall immediately park and turn off the vehicle, and notify TYAD of the incident.

RESPONSE/REPORTING PROCEDURES:

a. Instructions: The contractor shall be required to accept both oral and written orders.

b. Timeliness: The contractor shall be responsible for timely collection and invoicing as described in this Statement of Work.

c. Response: Collection shall occur only during first shift, as scheduled, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Monday through Thursday and between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Fridays when TYAD is open, unless otherwise pre-approved by the POC.

d. Quantity:. The contractor will keep six containers on-site at all times. Any changes to number of containers and frequency of pick-up will be done through a contract modification.

e. Receipts: Each time the contractor arrives at TYAD, the contractor shall weigh in at the truck scale on 1st Street. Before the contractor leaves TYAD, the contractor shall weigh out at the truck scale and check with the COR for a confirmation and receipt for the load. The contractor shall not leave TYAD without signing a receipt for the load or getting confirmation from an environmental office representative.

f. Load Contaminated by Debris: Debris (any material other than clean wood) placed in error in the contractor’s containers while at TYAD typically accounts for approximately five to ten percent of the weight for all collected loads during the performance period. The contractor shall properly dispose of all debris at their facility as part of this contract. The contractor should bid accordingly.

g. Load Contaminated by Hazardous or Military Material: Should a load include hazardous material (e.g., hazardous waste drums) or military equipment (e.g., an army-green or desert-beige painted equipment), the contractor shall immediately notify TYAD (Law Enforcement Branch).

Based upon discussion, either TYAD personnel shall immediately retrieve the item(s) from the contractor’s facility, or the contractor shall return the material during their next trip to TYAD at no additional costs.

h. Submittals: The contractor shall provide monthly invoices for 6 containers swapped per week performed under this contract via the Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF) electronic invoicing system. The contractor shall confirm with the COR the total amount to be paid by TYAD for the previous month’s services prior to submittal. .
