About this file

This draft Statement of Objectives (SOO) is for a Fuel Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for FEMA Region 6 at the Federal Regional Center (FRC) in Denton, Texas. The objective is to establish a contract for purchasing and delivering petroleum diesel fuel to a fixed generator on site, with deliveries made on an as-needed basis. The facility is a secure, underground bunker-type building constructed in the 1960s, with specific security requirements including driver background checks, truck inspections, and advance notification of deliveries.

Key requirements include delivering petroleum diesel fuel only (no additives or biofuels) to an above-ground generator tank with a 970-gallon capacity, with cost proposals to include transportation and delivery charges. Contractors must comply with strict security protocols, including working only during FEMA Denton Campus hours (7:30 AM-4:30 PM, Monday-Friday), conducting required security trainings, and ensuring all personnel are U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents. The contractor will be responsible for fuel delivery, cleaning the delivery area, managing any spills, and participating in joint inspections with FEMA upon completion of each delivery.

Statement of Objectives

Fuel Contract BPA

PURPOSE:

The objective of this project is to create a contract for fuel purchase and delivery to the Federal

Regional Center (FRC) building, located on the FEMA Denton Campus at 800 N. Loop 288, Denton, TX.

SCOPE:

FEMA Region 6 is seeking a contractor to supply and deliver Petroleum Diesel fuel for its fixed generator on site. Deliveries will be on an as needed basis. All proposals must clearly state which fuels are being offered by brand or manufacturer and have an attached Safety Data Sheets

(SDS).

Fuel specs as follows: only petroleum diesel fuel will be accepted no additives or Biofuels.

Cost proposals must include costs for the fuels offered by the proposer and shall include transportation and delivery charges (including pumping into our above-ground generator tanks).

BACKGROUND:

The Federal Regional Center (FRC) is an underground bunker-type facility built in the 1960’s during the cold war. The facility has a ground floor and two underground floors.

EXISTING CONDITIONS:

This is a secure facility, and drivers will need to show a current driver’s license and registration for the truck prior to accessing the facility. All trucks will be inspected prior to entry on site. No firearms or drugs will be allowed on property.

The generator is located on the ground level and the tank can be accessed through the privacy fence. Our security team must be made aware of any delivery at least one day prior to delivery or the driver may be turned away. We have two entry gates. One has bollards as a security feature and the second is a truck gate. Depending on the size of the delivery truck we will direct the driver to the best access point.

GENERAL:

The contractor shall provide all labor, materials, tools, and equipment to complete the fuel delivery. Any trucks that deliver fuel to FEMA must be able to pump fuel as all tanks are above ground and behind screens. This includes cleaning all areas where work is conducted to maintain the facility’s appearance. Any spills while on site are the responsibility of the contractor to clean

up. All work must comply with applicable laws, regulations, instructions, and commercial best practices.

BUILDING WORKING HOURS:

Work shall be conducted during the operational hours of the FEMA Denton Campus, which are

7:30 AM-4:30 PM, Monday through Friday, excluding Federal holidays. Any deviations from these hours require prior approval from the Contracting Officer (CO) or Contracting Officer’s

Representative (COR).
