STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

Project Title: Corrective Termite Fumigation Location: Patrick Space Force Base (PSFB), Florida Bldg. 708 Date: 09/10/2026 Rev: 3

1. Introduction and Background This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the requirements for corrective drywood termite fumigation services at building located at Building 708 Spacelift Ave. Patrick Space Force Base (PSFB), Florida. A pre-fumigation inspection will confirm the scope of active infestation. Due to the destructive nature of drywood termites, a complete whole-building tenting and structural fumigation is required to eradicate the pests and safeguard the structural integrity of the facility.

2. Measurable Objectives The primary objective of this project is the complete eradication of the Drywood Termite infestation within the designated structure.

· Metric 1 (Eradication): Achieve 100% mortality rate of live termites within the treated building.

· Metric 2 (Safety): Achieve 0 parts per million (ppm) or the legally mandated safe clearance level of fumigant gas (less than 1 ppm for Sulfuryl Fluoride) before re-entry is authorized.

· Metric 3 (Schedule): Complete all physical stages of the fumigation process—including tenting, gas introduction, exposure, aeration, and final clearance—within a strict 3 to 4-day continuous operational window to minimize facility and mission downtime.

3. Scope of Work The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and non-personal services necessary to perform whole-building tenting and corrective fumigation. The scope includes:

· Pre-Fumigation Inspection: Conducting a comprehensive walkthrough of the structure prior to treatment to verify building preparation, identify structural hazards, and map optimal gas introduction points.

· Structural Tenting: Erecting high-durability fumigation tents/tarpaulins to completely seal the entire building.

· Securing the Perimeter: Placing warning signs, secondary locks (clamshells), and securing all exterior access points to prevent unauthorized entry.

· Fumigant Introduction: Introducing the approved fumigant gas (e.g., Sulfuryl Fluoride or equivalent approved chemical) at dosage rates calculated based on target volume, temperature, and wind speed.

· Monitoring and Aeration: Monitoring gas levels during exposure and executing a controlled aeration and ventilation process.

· Clearance Testing: Conducting precision safety testing to officially certify the building as safe for human re-entry.

4. Applicable Regulations and Standards The Contractor must comply with all local, state, and federal laws, as well as military regulations, including but not limited to:

· Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).

· Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines for structural fumigation.

· Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) rules and regulations (Chapter 482, Florida Statutes).

· Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards for confined space and hazardous chemical exposure.

· Department of Defense (DoD) Pest Management Program regulations.

· PSFB Base Environmental, Safety, and Fire Protection standards.

5. Roles and Responsibilities Contractor Responsibilities:

· Perform a mandatory pre-fumigation inspection prior to treatment.

· Prepare, complete, and submit all required Florida state fumigation documents and notifications to FDACS and local authorities.

· Provide a detailed Fumigation Work Plan, including safety and emergency response procedures.

· Execute the tenting and fumigation process in strict adherence to manufacturer label instructions and Florida regulations.

· Issue a signed "Certificate of Safe Re-entry" once gas levels drop below 1 ppm.

· Dispose of wood deemed by the government as unserviceable.

PSFB Responsibilities:

· Mandatory Preparation: Ensure the complete removal of all non-factory sealed food items, medicines, and animal feed from the premises.

· Mandatory Preparation: Ensure the complete removal of all aircraft items and associated sensitive equipment from the immediate treatment area or interior.

· Provide the Contractor with unobstructed access to the building and surrounding 10-foot perimeter.

· Deactivate all building HVAC systems, gas lines, and interior fire detection/alarm systems (to prevent false alarms) prior to tenting.

· Coordinate gate access permissions for Contractor personnel.

6. Deliverables and Timelines The following deliverables must be submitted to the PSFB according to the outlined schedule:

1 day prior to treatment

7. Security Requirements Because the work is being performed on a military installation (PSFB), strict security compliance is mandatory.

· Base Access: All Contractor personnel must pass a background check to obtain Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) passes or equivalent base access credentials.

· Escorts: If working in restricted, flight line, or secure areas, Contractor personnel must be escorted by authorized PSFB personnel at all times.

· Operational Security: No photography, video, or recording of military assets (especially flight line operations) is permitted. Documentation is strictly restricted to the specified building's exterior and interior for pest control validation.

8. Place and Period of Performance

· Place of Performance: Building 708 Spacelift Ave, PSFB Florida 32925.

· Period of Performance: Performance shall commence no later than 10 days after contract award and shall be completed within 20 days from the start of initial work. The physical fumigation process, from tent installation through final clearance, shall be completed within a strict 3‑ to 4‑day continuous window.

9. Warranty and Liability

· 2-Year Service Warranty: The Contractor shall provide a two (2) year service warranty for Drywood Termites starting from the date the Clearance Certificate is issued.

· Coverage Terms: If active Drywood Termite infestation is discovered within the treated structure during the 2-year warranty period, the Contractor will perform corrective spot treatments or retreatment at no additional cost to the Government.

· Exclusion of Damage Protection: This warranty is strictly a service-only warranty. No structural damage protection, structural repair coverage, or financial compensation for pest-related damage is offered, implied, or provided.
