Statement of Work (SOW) For
BRAC Environmental Construction and Services Requirements Contract (BECSRC)
The purpose of this Basic Requirements Contract SOW is to define the general scope of the contract and describes how the contractor shall carry out work assignment(s) issued as task orders (TO) under this contract.
The contractor shall furnish the personnel, services, equipment, tools, materials, vehicles, facilities supervision and other requirements necessary for, or incidental to, the performance of work set forth herein; furthermore, the contractor shall assure any and all program and/or project related costing information (regardless of its stage in development) is secured, as directed by the Contracting Officer (CO); and be responsible for safeguarding proprietary, classified, and other sensitive information. The contractor shall be immediately capable of addressing and interpreting all aspects of environmental law and regulation.
PART A - GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
1.0 SCOPE
1.1 Introduction
This basic Requirements SOW defines the scope of the requirements which includes a range of environmental, minor construction, operations and service activities required by the Air Force (AF) to address “pop-up” activities at Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) installations. This SOW describes the interim requirements necessary to ensure timely and complete response to issues that are determined to be outside the scope of active performance-based remediation (PBR) efforts or other contracted environmental remediation efforts. This document will be tailored to identify specific activities required to address identified issues at the TO level.
This SOW includes the provision of all materials, travel, labor, reports, and other requirements necessary to accomplish BRAC Environmental Construction and Services within the Installation Restoration Program (IRP), the Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP) and at all compliance sites as required to perform the work.
Additionally, activities shall be conducted in accordance with AF policy taking into account the Local Reuse Authority (LRA) and other applicable stakeholder’s concerns as necessary. This may include, but is not limited to, the following requirements: License, Lease, and Sales agreement provisions with utility companies and current/prospective property owners, and Public conveyance property recipients. Unless otherwise approved, these interim response remedies/removals shall conform to environmental permits, decision documents, or other legal requirements including characterization, removal, and disposition of contaminated soil, and soils management that is consistent with the Federal Facilities Agreements (FFAs) for each installation, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), and respective local and state leaking underground storage tank (LUST) requirements. Technical requirements include early involvement in the process along with quick response to allow for the resolution of any identified environmental issues or concerns and ensuring development of the most technically sound solutions. AFCEC will rely on the contractor’s expertise in recognizing and addressing problematic issues necessary for quick execution of TOs.
This SOW encompasses a range of methods, technologies, and supporting activities necessary to conduct interim rapid response. Interim rapid response is defined as the ability to mobilize onsite within 48 hours after Notice to Proceed, in support of environmental restoration/remediation, operations and services efforts at thirteen (13) AF BRAC Western Region installations in accordance with technical and regulatory requirements, and a limited range of quick turnaround construction and ancillary services as required in support of “pop-up” efforts as addressed herein.
Requirements under this contract will primarily support environmental restoration/remediation, operations and services efforts; but requirements may also include traditional minor construction, demolition, and repair.
Requirements shall be carried out as specified TOs at any of the following AF BRAC Western Region installations (Table 1).

1.2 Policy and Requirement Statements
It is the policy of the AF to use innovative and sustainable approaches for environmental management and technology to accomplish its mission. Sustainable projects do not deplete resources, cause environmental degradation, or negatively impact human health and may reduce the burden of compliance for the AF. Mission requirements are met while balancing cost and environmental responsibility. The contractor shall incorporate pollution prevention and sustainability initiatives into all aspects of each TO.
The contractor shall fully collaborate in support of the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) mission, to include sharing of information with other AFCEC contractors, and cooperation with communities, regulators, and other government entities.
This SOW emphasizes the efficient management of TOs including, but not limited to, the submission of accurate, on-time, quality contract deliverables and timely identification and solution of impediments to successful project execution. Technical requirements include early involvement in the process to allow for the development of the most cost-effective and technically sound solutions. AFCEC will rely on the contractor’s expertise in recognizing and addressing problematic issues and successful execution of each TO. The contractor shall perform all work in accordance with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations.
Remedies shall conform to environmental permits, decision document requirements, and other legal requirements.
