PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

C.1. SCOPE OF WORK

C.1.1 The contractor shall furnish the necessary management, material, support services, labor, supplies, and equipment deemed necessary to perform depot/intermediate level preservation on USS Toledo SSN-769 Los Angeles Class Submarine. Work will be performed at Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY) in Portsmouth, VA 23709.

a. Work shall be accomplished by personnel meeting at least the minimum qualifications set forth in section C.2 below and shall be provided onboard the submarine as required. Typical work performed during an availability, may include blasting, preservation, and surface preparation for complete or touch-up preservation of the interior and exterior tanks, bow structure, exterior and interior sail, free floods, bow dome areas above the boot top, exterior hull, and non-skid removal and installation. Preservation work will include touch-up, blasting and painting one hundred percent (100%) high solids and non-high solids coatings.

b. Additional work may include the cleaning of sanitary and other tanks, construction of scaffolding required to accomplish submarine preservation and other NNSY work, general shipboard cleaning, zinc replacement, sound damping, Special Hull Treatment (SHT), and lead ballast removal and installation.

C.1.2 All tanks require the preparation and application of 100% coverage without additional access cuts installed and special blasting and application equipment/nozzles are often required to achieve this requirement.

C.1.3 The production schedule requirements for the tanks are of utmost importance to the Navy and shall be adhered to. Required reports and documentation must be compatible with Windows 10 Enterprise as the standard Network Operating System, or later, as the standard Office Software. The use of Web Applications will also be required (Navy Maintenance Data System (NMD). The use of project management, supervision and quality assurance personnel who are familiar with this type of preservation process is extremely important. At a minimum, the contractors shall meet the minimum personnel qualification requirements outlined in section C.2 PERSONNEL.

C.1.4. Specific tasks can include the following functions:

a. Preservation of interior tanks, exterior tanks, pressure hull, non-pressure hull, Vertical Launch System (VLS), Retractable Bow Plane (RBP), Torpedo Tube Recess, Torpedo Tube Recess, sonar dome, external hull portion of missile tubes, fairwater, turtleback, and miscellaneous recess/free floods; include hull components and other mechanical linkages and surfaces that must be protected during blasting and painting operations to prevent damage. These components will remain in place unless Government work requires their removal.

b. Sound Dampening

1. Reference (e), reference (f) and reference (g) provide guidance on the preparation and preservation of dampening tiles. Surfaces beneath exterior tiles and tiles inside tanks are considered critically coated.

All exterior tiles and tiles inside tanks shall be installed over a surface prepared to Surface Preparation Standard (SSPC)-SP 10 and painted (avoid filling perforations). Corrosion Resistant Steel (CRES) fasteners (studs, nuts, washers) used to secure Type II vibration damping and acoustic tiles shall be left unpainted.

2. The government shall remove any sound damping tiles found to be damaged. Tightly adherent paint within one inch of damping and acoustic tiles does not have to be removed if the paint is in good condition as determined by NACE or NBPI certified inspectors. Special precautions are required for protection of the sound damping tiles. Care shall be taken to ensure blasting does not damage tiles or restraining covers.

Precautions include starting blasting operations at the lowest pressure and working pressure up until paint is removed, while keeping the wand discharge constantly moving. Areas of paint failure within one inch of tiles shall be power tool cleaned to bare metal (SSPC-SP 11). If the sound damping tiles weep, the weeping will be addressed on an individual basis with removal only as a last resort. Sound damping tiles will remain installed unless they are damaged. Damage to systems, components or other items, including sound dampening tiles or restraining covers, incurred through improper blast protection/carelessness by the contractor shall be at the contractor’s expense in accordance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations (DFAR) Clause 252.217- 7012.
