The contractor shall transport all unserviceable target debris from the ranges to the closest Range Munitions Consolidation Point (RMCP) as identified in LAFBI 13- 212, or the landfill with proper chain of custody; this includes debris from targets the contractor did not place on the range during this O & M contract. A member of the EOD team must clear all unserviceable targets of ordnance before they are moved. Targets are defined as everything that is removed from the BMGR East. At no time shall any target debris be removed from the range complex for other than direct transportation to or from the holding areas or to the landfill. All Smokey SAMs shall be picked up and shredded, and the resulting cardboard/foam debris placed in the trash. All expended Smokey SAM igniter rods shall be broken in two piece s after they are fired.

15.6. Numbered Ranges.

15.6.1. Numbered Range Descriptions. BMGR East includes four numbered ranges. Ranges 1, 2 and 4 have a right conventional target, a nuclear weapons delivery (NWD) target, a tactical target, two strafe pits and one tactical strafe target. A left conventional circle is visible, but no associated target exists, and weapons employment is not authorized. Range 3 has a right conventional target, a NWD target, two strafe pits and one tactical strafe target. There is no tactical target on Range 3.

With one exception, the NWD target is on the south side of the range; Range 3 is configured with the NWD target to the north. The south half of Range 3 has been reconfigured to support helicopter gunnery training (see Section 15.7.11). All numbered ranges have a helicopter landing pad, which is constructed of PSP matting (Range 3 has an additional helo concrete pad). The pads are located southeast of the main tower and are approximately 30 ft. square. The contractor shall maintain the matting by removing vegetation to a minimum of 24 ft. around the pad annually. After all vegetation has been removed the matting shall be painted white. Note, on Range 3 the contractor shall apply a 25’ buffer of soil stabilizer around each helo pad. Each pad has a windsock. The contractor shall replace the windsock when it becomes faded or unserviceable. Each range has its respective number bladed in Roman Numerals inside a circle approximately 500 ft. in diameter halfway between the main and flank towers. The contractor shall blade the number and circles during six month maintenance and annually retaining their original size and shape to remove vegetation and keep the number visible from the air. Each range has an associated RMCP. Target scrap and spent munitions are stored and processed within these areas. RMCP 1 receives target debris and munitions from Range 1, NTAC, and STAC. RMCP 3 receives debris from Range 3 and ETAC. Access to RMCPs is controlled by the Luke AFB EOD team and during execution of the Range Residue Removal (R3) contract by the R3 contractor’s senior UXO technician. Material will not be added to a RMCP without coordination with EOD or R3 contractor. A 10-ft. high chain link fence encloses the areas with a gate on each side; they are approximately 500 ft. square. The contractor shall maintain the fencing, gates, and signage on each RMCP.

15.6.2. Maintenance Standards – Numbered Ranges. The contractor shall maintain the numbered ranges to the standards specified in this PWS, and the Service Summary in Section II.

One clearance referred to as “semi-annual” will involve limited maintenance: the right conventional target is cleared/replaced and the immediate target circle is bladed; the tactical strafe target area is cleared of vegetation; foul line tires are maintained/painted white; the lead-in road to the right conventional is bladed; and vegetation is cleared on the foul line and target/strafe lead-in lines; and aim-off distance markers are painted white. Annual clearance will be same as semi-annual but also includes NWD target maintenance; blade the immediate target circle, and associated reference marker(s) painting with replacement as required. Numbered ranges require contractor maintenance according to the maintenance schedule; however, heavy rain or storm damage may necessitate more frequent maintenance. Such additional service will be paid for as a call out. In addition, the contractor shall maintain the Rescue Range Complex on Range 3 (see

15.7.11. below) including 27 pop-up targets with no more than 3 out of service at one time.

15.6.3. EOD Work on Numbered Ranges. EOD must clear all impact areas during the use day or annual maintenance periods prior to the contractor beginning work. Close coordination between the EOD team chief, the contractor and the COR is required to ensure all areas are cleared and maintained safely within the time limits established on the range maintenance schedule.

15.6.3.1. Strafe Pits. Each numbered range has two strafe pits, two on the right side of the main tower. The strafe pits are identified as panel 1 and 2 at each range, left to right. Each strafe pit is 300’ wide and 700’ long, with a drag chute target panel located 300’ from the front of the strafe pit, two berms constructed of tires, cross ties and dirt, and a soft plowed impact area 100’ wide by

350’ long starting 150’ in front of the target panel and extending 200’ behind the panel. Strafe pit #2 on each range is a high angle strafe berm IAW paragraph 15.7.4.4.

15.6.3.1.1. Scheduled Strafe Pit Maintenance. Scheduled maintenance on strafe pits shall be accomplished every six use days. The contractor shall deep plow or disc harrow and utilize a digger strainer to clean the 100 by 350 foot impact area on the six use day to maintain loose sand/gravel at least 12 inches deep, and sweep or scrape the remainder of the 300’ X 700’ strafe pit area clear of all foreign objects, vegetation and surface debris. The contractor shall also maintain the area between each of the two pits clear of expended TP rounds and all surface debris. The contractor shall clean the strafe pit aprons of expended TP rounds during each range’s six use day maintenance and dispose of them in the proper containers at each range.

There are six or more tires each 15” or larger in a pyramid or triangle shape located inside each berm approximately midway from top to bottom. Four of these tire pyramids are required per berm lashed together with nylon webbing or rope. Directly behind the tires, railroad crossties are placed in the ground to a height of 30 inches for low angle and 50 inches for high angle berms to form the back and sides of the bunker. These are held in place by burying upright crossties in the ground to a minimum of 24 inches deep with 30/low/50/high inches above ground. The ties are then covered and filled with sand/gravel with 12 inches over the tops of the crossties bringing the total height of the berms to 42 inches for low angle and 62 inches for high angle. Each berm has a flat top three feet in width with an eight to twelve foot base. Total length of each berm is 56 feet. The first berm on each pit is located in front of the target panel with a similar berm located 30 feet behind measuring from the front of the railroad ties back.

15.6.3.5. Daily Strafe Pit Maintenance. The contractor shall maintain the strafe targets as required outside the six day pit maintenance cycle up to 12 times per year. Maintenance shall be done prior to the first mission of the day. This includes replacing or repairing any broken cables (cable is 1/8” wire rope), winches, and hardware, repair to target panel, and repair or replacement of nylon webbing, tape and tiebacks so that the strafe targets are ready for use prior to range opening. The contractor may use chutes from LUU-2 or similar flares for target panels after clearance by EOD personnel. If unavailable, contractor shall procure target panels of the same size or larger at his expense. The contractor shall gather chutes from the ranges with coordination of the ROCC. If unavailable, contractor shall procure permeable target panels or larger at his expense. Target panels shall be replaced once they lose 30% of their surface area.
