Contractor's Work Plan (CWP) for Pest Control

A Contractor developed document submitted as part of the Contractor proposal that describes how the requirements of this contract will be met. The plan establishes the strategies and methods for conducting a safe, effective, and environmentally sound pest management program.

Disease Vector Any animal capable of transmitting the causative agent of a human disease. It is recognized that certain disease vectors are predominately nuisance or economic pests that as conditions change may require management or control as a disease vector.

Insect Growth Regulator

(IGR)

Chemical substance that disrupts the action of insect hormones controlling molting, maturity from pupal stage to adult, and other growth functions for the purpose of insect control.

Integrated Pest Management Coordinator (IPMC)

The individual, fully trained in IPM principles and practice, designated by the installation commanding officer (CO) to coordinate and oversee all pest management activities at the installation.

Integrated Pest Management Plan (IPMP)

A required, written long-range, comprehensive planning and operational document that establishes the strategy and methods for conducting a safe, effective, and environmentally sound IPM program. IPM plans are a means of establishing and implementing installation pest management programs and function as the tool used to ensure compliance with applicable pest management laws and regulations.

Integrated Pest Management

(IPM)

A planned program incorporating education, continuous surveillance, record keeping, and communication to prevent pests and disease vectors from causing unacceptable damage to operations, people, property, materiel, or the environment.

IPM uses targeted, sustainable (effective, economical, environmentally sound) methods including habitat modification, biological, genetic, cultural, mechanical, physical, and regulatory controls; and when necessary, the judicious use of least hazardous pesticides.

Safety Data Sheet (SDS) A document (Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Form 174, or equivalent) that accompanies a pesticide product, providing the handler with chemical information on ingredients, handling instructions, potential hazards, and manufacturer address and emergency contact information.

Medically Important Pest Any animal capable of transmitting the causative agent of a human disease serving as an intermediate or reservoir host of a pathogenic organism producing human discomfort or injury, including (but not limited to) mosquitoes, flies, other insects, ticks, mites, snails, and rodents.

Mission Impact Pest Pests that may adversely affect the DoD mission or military operations; the health and well-being of people; or structures, material, or property.

Nuisance Pests Arthropods, and other organisms, that do not cause economic damage or adversely affect human health, but which on occasion do cause annoyance.

Pest Management Performance Assessment Representative (PMPAR)

A DoD employee trained in pest management, who protects the government's interest through on-site performance assessment (PA) of commercial pest management contracts or other contracts that involve the use of pesticides.

New Jersey light traps (or equal), CDC light traps (or equal), gravid traps, BG sentinel, or other commercially purchased light trap designs deemed acceptable to the Armed Forces Pest Management Board (AFPMB), shall be used. The Government may or may not provide electricity at the site where the KO designates that the light traps shall be placed. If no electricity is available, battery operated units shall be used. Battery operated units may be used even if electricity is provided. The government shall not supply batteries. Use the same trap design at the same location throughout the course of this contract.

Trap Placement: Traps shall be placed so as to effectively collect and measure the target mosquito population.

The Government may determine trap locations.

Trapping Frequency: Traps shall be set twice each week (weather permitting). If weather is inappropriate for trapping (heavy rain or consistent winds above 15 MPH), perform trapping on the night following the scheduled night (or the next appropriate night). Conduct adult mosquito trapping in accordance with the weekly schedule.

Survey Data: At a minimum, the Contractor shall count the total number of mosquitoes in the trap and record the number on the Adult Mosquito Catch Form.

Disposition of Mosquitoes: Consult with the installation Preventive Medicine Department to determine if mosquito collections should be saved for identification and testing. If the mosquitoes are to be retained, then the following method should be used. Immobilize and kill mosquitoes and other arthropods by placing in the trap container in a freezer or using another suitable method that does not destroy the specimens (e.g. do not immerse in alcohol). (Mosquitoes collected for testing (e.g. West Nile Virus) may require specific handling; consult with the Preventive Medicine Department.) Place trap contents in a paper or cardboard container and label with time, date, location collector’s name and contact information. Deliver to personnel designated by the KO to receive the mosquito trap collection. If mosquitoes do not need to be kept, then they should be disposed.

Reporting Adult Mosquito Collections: The Contractor shall complete the number of samples designated by the Government and record (in legible handwriting) the results of the survey for each location sampled. The Contractor shall note the date and time of collection, the number of mosquitoes collected per sample site, type of breeding source, notes regarding the sampled mosquitoes, and sum or average the totals. The COR may provide a collection form (Adult Mosquito Catch Form) on which the survey results are recorded. Records shall be reported on the collection form and submitted weekly during surveillance to the COR and the installation Preventive Medicine Department.

The action threshold for adult mosquito control shall be e.g. or as recommended by the Preventive Medicine Department:

Light traps: 25 biting females or 1 vector species in an un-baited light trap or 40 biting females in a baited CO2 trap

Landing counts: 15 per hour Disease emergencies declared: light traps: 1 female of a species which has been identified as carrying disease trapped within 5 miles of installation

NOTE: Action thresholds may be changed on advise of a BUMED entomologist Vector species of concern Primary diseases of concern Culiseta melanura Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), West Nile Virus (WNV) Culex pipiens complex EEE, St. Louis encephalitis, WNV Culex nigripalpus EEE, St. Louis encephalitis, WNVadult mosquitoes per trap>>

The base Preventive Medicine Technicians shall be consulted before any control takes place.

Pest Group 016: Larval Mosquito Surveillance

Equipment: The Contractor shall provide all equipment (as needed), to complete the assigned task(s) including, but not limited to, ladders, asepto syringes, boots, dippers, notebooks, etc (as applicable). The Contractor shall sample for immature mosquitoes on the schedule designated by the KO or COR.

Survey Designated Mosquito Breeding Sites (Areas designated by the ACO or Contract Specifications): Areas shall be designated by the KO or COR for non-recurring work, and by maps for recurring work. In the designated area(s), there may be differing aquatic environments to sample from including but not limited to, wetlands, standing pools of water, tree holes, artificial containers, clogged rain gutters, land depressions with temporary pools, floodwater plains, standing ponds, underground or aboveground storm water catch basins, swamps, drainage ditches, tire dumps, recycling areas, or any area where mosquitoes can breed. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to survey all potential mosquito breeding sites within the designated area(s).

Previous Experience: Larval mosquito surveys are very technique sensitive. Only Contractor personnel, with significant previous experience sampling for immature mosquitoes, shall perform larval surveys.

Survey Techniques:

In larger bodies of water such as ponds, lakes, catch water basins, etc., perform surveys around the water perimeter using a standard larval mosquito dipper (style and type approved by the Installation Preventive Medicine Department and the COR). Complete a sufficient number of dips to develop an accurate average dip count for the body of water (e.g. 10 dips/sampling station). Different species of mosquito larvae must be surveyed using different dipping techniques. It may be necessary to proceed carefully, or to act swiftly depending on the species being sampled, as water disturbance or casting shadows could result in the larvae diving to the bottom. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to know the proper sampling technique(s) for the mosquito species present.

In smaller water bodies such as rain gutters, artificial containers, tree holes etc., samples shall be taken using an appropriate collection device.

Reporting Larval Mosquito Collections: The Contractor shall record (in legible handwriting) the results of the survey for each location sampled. The Contractor shall complete the number of samples designated by the KO for each location. The Contractor shall note the date and time of collection, the number of immature mosquitoes collected per sample site, type of breeding source, notes regarding the sampled mosquitoes, and sum or average the totals. The KO may provide a collection form on which the survey results are recorded. Records shall be reported on the collection form and submitted every two weeks during surveillance to the KO and the installation Preventive Medicine Department.
