Eielson AFB Alaska

SECTION 1

Description of Services

This performance work statement defines the requirements to provide support for sampling and sample analysis for the Eielson Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), the WWTP Biosolids disposal program, the Water Treatment Plant (WTP) Filter Backwash Pond, and WTP Total

Organic Carbon (TOC) and Perfluorinated Chemical (PFC) sampling program.

Sampling and sample analysis support for the WWTP shall be in accordance with the

Wastewater Disposal Permit 2006DB0045 for the Eielson AFB Wastewater Treatment Plant.

Sampling performed at the WWTP include weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually obtained samples to ensure the requirements of the discharge permit issued by the State of Alaska are met.

Sampling and sample analysis support for the WWTP Biosolids disposal program shall be in accordance with the Eielson Air Force Base (AFB) Sludge Management Plan included in the

State of Alaska Solid Waste Permit, SWYA068-19. Biosolids sampling is typically only one solids drying bed per year.

Sampling and sample analysis support for the Eielson AFB Water Treatment Plant (WTP) filter backwash pond shall be in accordance with the Wastewater Disposal Permit 2007DB0004 for the Eielson AFB Water Treatment Plant. The WTP filter backwash pond discharges into Garrison

Slough by discharge weir overflow and is required to be sampled four times annually. These samples include upstream, weir (mixing zone), and downstream samples.

Sampling and sample analysis support for the Eielson AFB Water Treatment Plant (WTP) PFC sampling program as necessary to ensure Eielson AFB drinking water is in compliance with current EPA Health Advisories for Perfluorinated Chemicals (PFCs). These samples are analyzed specifically for total organic carbon (TOC), perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS).

All sample analysis must be performed in an Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation

(ADEC) water certified lab. The Laboratory Facility used by the Contractor must comply with the applicable Alaska state discharge permits/disposal permit. The Laboratory Facility must also obtain/maintain an Alaska state wastewater lab certification upon State of Alaska request.
