SCOPE

This requirement is for environmental remediation activities at Cannon Air Force Base (AFB), New Mexico, Holloman AFB, New Mexico, Kirtland AFB, New Mexico, and Luke AFB, Arizona. This Statement of Objectives (SOO) defines the scope of a full range of construction and engineering activities necessary for investigation, design, remedial action, remedial construction, and environmental remediation activities to achieve minimum performance objectives and stretch goals and support progress to Site Closeout (SC) at eighty-five (85) Installation Restoration Program (IRP) sites, and twenty-one (21) Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP) sites in the Performance Based Remediation (PBR) contract.

1.1 Introduction

Cannon AFB Cannon AFB is home to the 27th Special Operations Wing of the Air Force Special Operations Command. Cannon AFB is located in Curry County, New Mexico, situated approximately eight miles west of the City of Clovis. The base is situated on 3,789 acres (5.9 square miles) of federally-owned land. Off-base facilities include the currently active Melrose Air Force Range (formerly Melrose Bombing Range), located about 24 miles west-southwest of the base on approximately 60,010 acres.

Cannon AFB is regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 6 (EPA) and the New Mexico Environment Department (NMED) Hazardous Waste Board (HWB). Cannon has an active Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) permit # NM7572124454. It is not on the National Priorities List (NPL).

Holloman AFB

Holloman AFB is located six miles (10 km) southwest of the central business district of Alamogordo, New Mexico. Holloman AFB occupies approximately 60,000 acres and was first established in 1942 as Alamogordo Army Air Field (AAF) flying primarily B-17s, B-24s, and B-29s. In 1947, it became the primary site for the testing and development of un-manned aircraft, guided missiles, and other research programs. In 1968, the 49th Tactical Fighter Wing arrived at HAFB and has conducted fighter aircraft training and operations. Holloman AFB has also served as the German Air Force’s Tactical Training Center since 1996.

Corrective action is regulated by the Holloman AFB RCRA Permit # NM6572124422-2. The Corrective Action Modules and guidance documents, supporting corrective action, are provided by the NMED HWB.

Kirtland AFB Kirtland AFB is located in Bernalillo County, in central New Mexico, southeast of and adjacent to the City of Albuquerque. The approximate area of the base is 52,287 acres. Environmental remediation is being conducted pursuant to RCRA. Regulatory enforcement authority is the NMED HWB. Kirtland AFB has a RCRA Hazardous Waste Permit #NM9570024423.

At Kirtland AFB, project stakeholders may include, but not be limited to, the Air Force, US Army Corp of Engineers (USACE), Kirtland AFB, Air National Guard, New Mexico Environment Division (NMED) Hazardous Waste Board (HWB), the City of Albuquerque and Albuquerque Bernalillo County Water Utility Authority, Veteran’s Administration Medical Center, and private landowners. The required level of involvement may differ from site to site and the Contractor will be responsible for obtaining comments with appropriate approval or concurrence on project deliverables consistent with applicable regulatory drivers and agreements for each site.

Luke AFB Luke AFB covers approximately 4,000 acres west of the Phoenix metropolitan area in Glendale, Arizona. Construction of the facility began on March 29, 1941. Although only a few essential buildings had been completed, training of the first class of pilots began on June 6, 1941. Luke Air Force Base is the largest and only active-duty F-16 Fighting Falcon training base in the world with more than 200 F-16s assigned. The host command at Luke is the 56th Fighter Wing (56 FW), under Air Education and Training Command's 19th Air Force.

The eastern portion of Luke AFB currently consists of a variety of light industrial facilities, office buildings occupied by administrative and community services, Base barracks, and outdoor recreation centers. The central and western portions of Luke AFB include the runways; open space; and aircraft operation, training, and maintenance facilities. Base residential housing and commercial areas are located to the east of Luke AFB across Litchfield Park Road. The base population includes about 7,500 military members and 15,000 family members. With about 80,000 retired military members living in greater Phoenix, the base services a total population of more than 100,000 people.

On August 30, 1990, EPA placed Luke AFB on the NPL. On September 27, 1990, the USEPA, Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ), Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR), and USAF signed the Federal Facility Agreement (FFA) to establish the procedural framework for conducting the required environmental investigations at Luke AFB. The OU-2 ROD was signed in 1994 and listed Luke AFB as a Federal Superfund site. The OU-1 ROD was signed on September 1999. The signing of the FFA marked the official beginning of the Comprehensive Environmental Restoration, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) investigation of the Base.

1.2 General PBR Scope and Requirements The Contractor shall perform all the necessary environmental construction and engineering activities as required to achieve the performance objectives of this SOO.

Enclosure 1 lists the sites included in the scope of this contract.

The Air Force (AF) is required to implement remedies as necessary to protect human health and the environment. The intent of the PBR initiative is to maximize the number of SCs or advance sites as close to SC as practicable during the Period of Performance (POP) in a cost effective manner. It is desirable to the AF that Life-Cycle Costs (LCC) be reduced. The AF is interested in substantial reduction of long-term environmental liabilities and life-cycle costs through accelerated achievement of SC and optimization of environmental restoration activities for all sites included in this contract while complying with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations; and applicable base-specific orders, agreements, or rules. General performance objectives pursuant to the AFAF’s overarching goals are listed below in order of priority and defined in Enclosure 4:

1) Achieve SC during the POP.

2) For any site not achieving SC during the POP, achieve, in order of priority,

a. Response Complete (RC)

b. Remedy in Place (RIP)

c. The furthest objective within the regulatory structure for each site (e.g. Decision Document (DD), Preliminary Assessment/Site Inspection (PA/SI), etc.)

3) The Contractor shall develop an Optimized Exit Strategy (OES) for sites identified in Table 1 of this SOO that have an approved DD prior to, or during the POP, but do not achieve SC. The Contractor shall describe the strategy in an OES Plan to achieve the following objectives:

· Maintain compliance with all DDs and plans (currently in place or to be approved) until no longer required or an alternate approach is approved.

· Correct Five-Year Review deficiencies where identified as no longer protective of human health and the environment at all sites.

· The next Five-Year Review for Kirtland AFB is scheduled in 2015.

· The next Five-Year Review for Cannon AFB is scheduled in 2017.

· The Five-Year Review for Holloman AFB is scheduled in 2017.

· The Five-Year Review for Luke AFB is scheduled in 2017.

· Apply innovative technologies to minimize the cost and period of operating, monitoring and treatment.

· Improve the understanding of the Conceptual Site Model (CSM), existing systems, and contamination sources to support optimization.

· Provide an analysis of alternatives for each site to aggressively accelerate treatment and progress to expedite SC. Alternatives shall include engineering cost estimates, conceptual designs, and a business case analysis.

· Develop performance indicators, decision criteria, and objectives consistent with the performance model described below that will be used to optimize remedial efficiency, quantify how the response is progressing and demonstrate when the objective has been reached. The following are the minimum required OES deliverables: an OES Plan shall be delivered within one year from either date of award or exercise of the option of the SubCLIN whichever is applicable. An OES Implementation Completion Report shall be delivered upon completion of the implementation of the optimization efforts in the approved OES Plan, and one of the final milestones shall be an OES Effectiveness Report:

· The OES Effectiveness Report shall include:

a) Documentation of what remedial strategies were implemented, what remains to be implemented, and any modifications to the OES arising from performance to date.

b) A realistic schedule to achieve SC or RC after the POP (the Contractor shall identify which performance objective is the optimal endpoint). For sites with an indeterminate project completion date, a schedule for 30 years including the POP is required.

c) The remaining definable and measurable milestones after the POP.

4) For all sites listed in Table 1 of this SOO that have an approved DD prior to or during the POP and are not being proposed to SC during the POP, the Contractor shall develop performance models that describe the expected course of the remediation process (i.e. how conditions are expected to change over time as measured using appropriate performance indicators from the current state until the performance objective is achieved). For all sites being proposed to SC during the POP, the work planning documents are expected to contain the performance model. The Contractor shall provide monitoring reports that demonstrate whether or not the remedial approach is performing in accordance with the performance model. For purposes of reporting Contractor progress and status, these conditions shall be quantified by performance indicators relevant to the proposed remedial approach. A performance model is a graphic representation of a performance indicator value over time until a performance objective is achieved. Several indicators may be needed to adequately reflect performance. The Contractor shall report the actual remedy performance compared to projected performance. The Contractor shall ensure consistency and continuity of information regarding performance (between the Project Management Plan (PMP), Integrated Master Schedule (IMS)/Milestone Payment Schedule (MPS), and OES plan.

Within the construct of the goals and objectives above, the minimum performance objectives and specific performance objectives to be achieved for each site during the POP for this contract effort are outlined in Tables 1 and 2 of this SOO. If the Contractor anticipates the ability to achieve a stretch goal during the POP, the Contractor is encouraged to propose that stretch goal, which will then become the requirement of this contract (applicable to sites in Table 1 of this SOO only).

The Contractor shall specify the performance objective to include at least the minimum objective as listed for sites in Table 1 of this SOO, and the specific performance objectives for sites in Table 2 of this SOO (with no stretch goal proposed) and date they intend to achieve it for each site within the POP. Contractors shall explain why the selected performance objective (including the minimum performance objective if that is what is proposed) is an optimum solution for the Government. It should be noted that the AF reserves the right not to exercise all options not awarded at the time of contract award.

MANAGEMENT, PLANNING, AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

The Contractor shall implement a full range of construction and engineering activities as required to meet objectives of this contract and in accordance with all applicable base, regulatory, and site requirements. The Contractor shall supply all labor, equipment, and materials necessary to accomplish the work. The Contractor shall perform management and planning functions, including performance measurement and fund status reporting.

4.1 Milestone Payment Schedule (MPS) Milestone payments shall be based on the completion of definable and measurable steps, which are considered integral and necessary to the achievement of the stated performance objectives. Completion of milestones shall demonstrate payment is appropriate and warranted. AF approval of the documentation supporting the completion of the milestone is required for payment (for example, AF approval of Draft Remedial Investigation report, AF acceptance that interim and final performance goals per approved performance models have been achieved.) Where regulatory acceptance/concurrence is required for this documentation, AF acceptance of the milestone will occur following regulatory acceptance/concurrence of the documentation (for example, EPA approval of Draft Record of Decision). For milestones where regulatory acceptance/concurrence is required and regulatory acceptance/concurrence cannot be obtained, the AF will evaluate the Contractor’s documents to determine if they are legally and technically acceptable to warrant payment for achieving that milestone.

The Contractor’s proposed MPS may require restructure of Contract Line Item Number (CLIN)/SubCLINs, if necessary, to align with projected available funding prior to award; however the MPS is not final with award of the contract. Changes made to the MPS prior to award are used to finalize the SubCLINs description and amount. Award of the contract does not equate to final acceptance of the MPS. The MPS shall be included as part of the PMP. The MPS will be negotiated during development of the PMP and may require additional changes. The Contractor shall submit the MPS in an electronic format consistent/compatible with the AFCEC SharePoint website, e‑DASH. Final decisions regarding the adequacy of milestone and deliverable completion resides solely with the COR. The COR will take into consideration the appropriate acceptance and/or concurrence of necessary site remediation documentation by regulators, consistent with applicable regulatory drivers of this SOO.

Management and overhead type costs (program/project management, monthly reporting, mobilization costs, etc.) do not provide measureable program advancement and are not appropriate milestone payments. These costs/expenses should be allocated into site, site grouping, or Operable Unit (OU)-related milestone payments that provide demonstrable value to the program. Milestones shall not represent a “progress” payment or a monthly payment for level of effort expended. Completing site mobilization/demobilization (unless exempted by CO), accomplishment of field activities, or submittal of a monthly status or Operations and Maintenance (O&M) reports are examples of unacceptable milestone payments.

The first deliverable milestone required in the MPS is the Opening Phase PMP. The PMP deliverable milestone shall be contract inclusive. The Contractor shall not allocate costs to specific sites or include indirect costs associated with sites. Upon determination of bona fide need, a second PMP SubCLIN for the Closing phase may be exercised. Both PMPs shall be updated annually or as necessary to remain current with the approved execution strategy.

The Contractor shall complete an MPS and identify milestone payments, and the associated payment schedule on a site by site basis. The Contractor may also propose logical groupings of sites or OUs for milestone payment purposes where an approach provides greater efficiency for the program; however, a SubCLIN involving multiple sites shall identify milestones by individual sites in order to support AF reporting requirements. Table 2 of this SOO includes the specific performance objectives (with no stretch goal proposed). Achievement of the awarded performance objective for Table 1 and Table 2 sites of this SOO shall be the final payment milestone for each SubCLIN. Potential CLIN and SubCLINs are described in the CLIN/MPS/IMS Guidance.

The number of milestone payments per site should be limited to a reasonable amount based on the scope and anticipated duration to achieve the performance objective at the site. The Contractor is limited to one invoice submitted to AFCEC per month. The invoice must itemize the milestone payments for each site or grouping associated with the invoice.

If the Contractor has to continue working beyond the performance objective date to achieve a final milestone (applies to SubCLIN dates only) the Contractor shall submit a period of performance extension request to the CO at least 60 days prior to the expiration date of the Sub-CLIN. However, the Contractor shall not perform work after the funding associated with the milestone cancels. Specifically, completion of activities on an individual SubCLIN cannot exceed 30 days prior to the end of the fiscal year; five years from the date of exercising of the SubCLIN. However, the Contractor will not receive payment until milestones are achieved in accordance with the MPS. The Contractor may receive a negative past performance rating for delay in achievement of the impacted performance objectives.

4.2 Project Management Plan (PMP)

The Contractor shall develop and maintain a detailed PMP. The PMP shall include the Technical Approach, IMS, and MPS, prepared as part of the Contractor’s proposal. In addition, the PMP shall specify the resources required for the planning, execution, control, and completion of the stated performance objectives. At a minimum, the PMP shall include the following sections: technical approach, performance objectives in accordance with the SOO, draft Performance Models, organization and integration of the project team, schedule management and project controls, transitional activities, risk management, SubCLIN management, quality management, health and safety management, project communications and stakeholders, procurement management, and security management. The PMP should identify the project’s resources and project tasks corresponding to the SubCLINs for this contract.

In order to align with the availability and expiration of Government funds, the Contractor shall prepare two versions of the PMP. The initial (or opening phase) PMP will govern activities from award to the midpoint of the PoP. The closing phase PMP will govern activities from the midpoint of the PoP the end of the PoP and will be funded approximately 4.5 years from contract award or upon CO determination of bona fide need.

The first draft of the opening phase PMP shall be due within 30 calendar days of contract award and subsequent revisions shall be subject to AF review and approval. The revised version of the opening phase PMP shall be due within 14 calendar days from receipt of AF comments. The PMP shall be updated annually, or as necessary, throughout the contract to remain current with the approved execution strategy. The Final Preliminary PMP, annual updates, and the Final PMP shall be submitted in an electronic format consistent/compatible with the AFCEC SharePoint website, e‑DASH.

The first draft of the closing phase PMP shall be due within 30 calendar days of SubCLIN award. The closing phase PMP will be a logical follow-on of the final version of the opening phase PMP. The revised version of the closing phase PMP shall be due within 14 calendar days from receipt of AF comments. The PMP shall be updated annually, or as necessary, throughout the contract to remain current with the approved execution strategy.

The final milestone for the opening phase PMP SubCLIN shall be a Project Status Summary and for the Closing phase PMP SubCLIN shall be a Project Closeout Summary.

The Project Status Summary and Project Closeout Summary shall include summaries of the following: progress on achievement of objectives, progress on achievement of milestones including performance models, schedule achievements or delays, issues and risks, and other project indicators as required by the CO or COR. In addition, the Project Closeout Summary shall include required information to support closeout of the contract as defined by the CO and COR.

4.3 Project Web Site The Contractor shall maintain a document repository for all PBR documents to include, but not limited to information on meetings, documents submitted, SubCLIN details, milestone status as agreed to in the PMP; current topics associated with the PBR, basic PBR statistics and objectives, stakeholder Point of Contact (POC) information; calendar of events, meetings milestones; laboratory results and reports, 3D conceptual models; groundwater reports, analysis, studies; links to administrative records/information repository records and to associated appropriate reference documents- state and federal policy guidance; and key performance indicator tracking.

The repository is intended to be a single access point repository for all PBR documentation. It shall be accessible to all stakeholders during the life of the PBC. The Contractor shall provide notifications to the COR, CO, and Base POC at the time data is included in the repository. At close-out, all repository documents will be transferred to DVD media and delivered to the AF, and placed on the AFCEC contractor drop-zone website (address provided under separate cover).

4.4 Schedule and Planning Requirements – Integrated Master Schedule (IMS)

The Contractor shall prepare and submit an IMS for approval that includes activities and milestones at a detailed level and presents sequenced events for completion of the proposed performance objectives within the time designated and any critical path items that may affect ability to meet the schedule. The Contractor shall include and identify all performance milestones and payments consistent with the approved MPS. Sites associated with each milestone/task shall be noted in the schedules using the Site IDs and referencing all site aliases noted in Table 1 and Table 2 of this SOO and SubCLINs. The schedule shall be provided in initial hardcopy and subsequently in electronic format consistent/compatible with AF software, currently Microsoft( Project and in Adobe Acrobat portable document file (.pdf), Microsoft Excel, and any other formats required upon request. Updated and revised schedules shall be submitted electronically to the AFCEC SharePoint website with monthly status reports with changes clearly identified by the Contractor.

4.5 Cost and Status Reporting

The Contractor shall prepare and submit a monthly Contractor’s Progress, Status, and Management Report (CPSMR). The CPSMR shall be used to review and evaluate the overall progress of the project, along with any existing or potential problem areas. The report shall be prepared in a format coordinated with the COR. The CPSMR shall also be used to indicate whether efforts for each site are on target for meeting the Contractor’s proposed performance objective.

The CPSMR shall include a summary of the events that occurred during the reporting period, discussion of performance, identification of problems, proposed solutions, corrective actions taken, outstanding issues, and payments made toward the MPS to date.

The Contractor shall provide the cost for reporting the data as a separate line item in the CPSMR.

The AF will use approved performance indicators and models, in addition to the PMP to establish and execute a surveillance plan. The Surveillance Plan will highlight key quality control activities or events. The COR will use the Surveillance Plan to determine when AF (COR and/or CO) surveillance activities can be conducted to assess progress toward and/or verify completion of payment milestones. The AF will communicate surveillance activities internally and with the Contractor. Current guidance on how the AF will develop and implement surveillance will be provided in the Surveillance Plan.
