PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

Spring Creek NFH Deaeration Pump Service and Repair Part 1 General Information

1. General: This is a non-personal services contract to provide service on four vertical pumps at Spring Creek National Fish Hatchery. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform service on the pump assemblies as defined in this Performance Work Statement except for those items specified as government furnished property and services.

Servicing the deaerating motors and pump components will increase their life span, prevent unexpected failures and minimize the noise levels.
