Scope of Work

Install Potable Water Well at Howell Landing - Namekagon District National Park Service - St. Croix National Scenic Riverway

PMIS 234008

1.1 Project Description

The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, and supervision, necessary to install a new conventional potable water well system for the National Park Service (NPS) – St. Croix National Scenic Riverway, (SACN) located at Howell Landing in the Namekagon District. Furthermore, the contractor shall also perform the abandonment of the existing well located at Howell Landing. All work shall follow all state and local codes and provide appropriate documentation to the State of Wisconsin.

The new well shall conform to appropriate Wisconsin State Well Code as well as abide by Wisconsin Natural Resources Chapter NR 812 – Well Construction and Pump Installation. The depth of the well shall be determined by the level at which a sufficient supply of safe, potable water is found. The well shall be cased. A new submersible pump and pressure tank shall be installed in the new well. The contractor shall perform the electrical hookup at the pump. The location of the well shall be determined by both the well driller and SACN and will remain within the footprint of the area cleared by NPS archeologists. The contractor shall provide for all necessary permitting and submittals to the State of Wisconsin.

The abandonment of the existing well shall be performed after NPS staff has installed the new water supply system and fountain, and after the new water system has been tested and found safe to consume. There will be no disruption of the water supply during the period of time between the installation of the new well system and the abandonment of the existing well. This will require the contractor to revisit the site at a later date to complete the abandonment work.

1.2 Location

SACN Tracts number 24-103 and 23-143 S20 T41N R13W Town of Chicog Washburn County, Wisconsin

PIN 65-016-2-41-13-20-1 02-000-001000

(Howell Landing is located on the Namekagon River at the terminal end of Burian Place Road. There is no identifying address or fire number.)

1.3 Well Description

The well casing shall be either 6” steel or 5” PVC. The depth of the well shall be determined by the level at which a sufficient supply of safe, potable water is found. Based upon the depth of the existing well, it is estimated that the depth of the well will be less than 100 feet in depth. The well system shall be at least a ½ horsepower pump equivalent to or better than a Grundfos SQ, SQE. It shall include a pressure tank with a sufficient capacity to support the water system and dimensions no greater than 26 inches in diameter and 50 inches in height, drop pipe, fittings, pitless, all electrical materials, and an appropriately sized stainless steel screen. The well shall be tested to ensure operation. Well water shall be tested for coliform bacterial and nitrates. The well shall be disinfected. Water supply line shall be trenched below the frost line. It shall be brought up to the surface and terminated in a manner above ground so SACN park personnel can access. Furthermore, the supply line shall be installed with appropriate components to allow for draining of the line in order to prevent the line from freezing. Maximum distance between well and pressure tank will be no greater than 12 feet. A water supply line and electrical conduit line shall be installed from the pressure tank site to the location of a water fountain. Furthermore, an electrical conduit line shall be installed from the pressure tank site to the location of the electrical pedestal and meter.

A water supply line shall be installed utilizing directional boring, also known as horizontal directional drilling. This supply line shall travel from the well/pressure tank location to the water fountain site and shall be of appropriate size and material for the water line. The exact distance of the supply line will need to be determined by the contractor;

Solicitation No. P17PS01778 SACN – Replace Well at Howell Landing Page 9 of 37 however, it is estimated to be no more than 200 feet in length. Furthermore, an additional appropriately sized conduit pipe shall be installed, utilizing directional boring. This conduit will be used to run electrical lines to the well from the electrical pedestal. Appropriate type and gauge of electrical wire shall be run in the conduit and terminated at each end. The exact distance from the well to the electrical pedestal will be determined by the contractor; however, it is estimated to be no more than 200 feet. Additionally, an appropriately sized conduit shall be installed, utilizing directional boring, from the well to the water fountain. This conduit shall be used to run electrical lines from the well to the water fountain. Appropriate type and gauge (at least 14 gauge) electrical wire shall be run in the conduit and terminated at each end leaving a sufficient whip to allow NPS personnel to attach to electrical components. The exact distance from the well to the fountain will need to be determined by the contractor; however, it is estimated to be no more than 200 feet.

Abandonment of the existing well shall follow all state and local codes and provide appropriate documentation to the State of Wisconsin. Abandonment shall include at minimum the following: removal of the pump and any piping inside of the casing. Next, the well or drill hole will need to be filled from bottom to top with proper filling materials, such as cement grout, concrete grout, concrete, a clay/sand slurry mix or in some cases, bentonite chips.

Then, the area around the casing will be dug out approximately 1 foot below grade. Finally, the casing cut off below grade and covered with soil. Proper documentation shall be provided to SACN and the State of Wisconsin. The park (SACN) will retain the submersible pump. If for whatever reason, the pump or components of a pump are frozen within the casing and are unable to be removed, the well must be abandoned appropriately following all State of Wisconsin and local codes.

As stated previously, the abandonment of the existing well shall be performed after NPS staff has installed the new water supply system and fountain, and after the water has been tested and found safe to consume. There will be no disruption of the water supply during the period of time between the installation of the new well system and the abandonment of the existing well. This will require the contractor to revisit the site at a later date to complete the abandonment work. The contractor will be notified by NPS staff when abandonment of the old well can occur.

1.4 Safety

Contractor shall provide skilled, trained, experienced and competent workers to complete the work as specified, and shall be fully responsible to ensure compliance with current OSHA regulations for personnel and equipment on site at all times. Contractor will maintain Safety Data Sheets pertaining to products utilized on site at all times. All Contract personnel must utilize the proper safety equipment. If applicable, the Contractor shall provide, erect, and maintain all necessary barricades, warning and danger signs and take all necessary precautions for the protection of the workers and safety of the public. All barricades and signs shall be in accordance with Part 5, American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Standard D6.1, Manual of Uniform Traffic Control for Highways. All contractor employees must utilize the proper safety equipment and follow applicable OSHA regulations. Work can be halted by the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) if proper safety measures are not followed.

1.5 Underground Utilities

It will be the Contractor’s responsibility to locate underground utilities within the work site, or have the underground utilities located by another party within the work site.

1.6 Building Site and Work Hours

The Contractor shall be limited to certain work areas at the site for equipment and tool storage. The Government does not provide secure storage at the site. The government accepts no responsibility for materials, tools or equipment left on-site by the Contractor.

There are no known archeological concerns in the immediate work area. However, the contractor will be advised that if an archeological find is discovered, the CO and COR must be notified and work in that area must be ceased until cleared by the National Park Service.

Work will be performed during normal NPS scheduled working hours. Normal NPS working hours are: Monday through Friday, 6:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. No work will be performed on weekends or Federal Holidays. Special arrangements may be made to accommodate the contractor.

52.225-9 Buy American - Construction Materials. (MAY 2014)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause- Commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item- (1) Means any item of supply (including construction material) that is-

(i) A commercial item (as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition at FAR 2.101);

(ii) Sold in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace; and

(iii) Offered to the Government, under a contract or subcontract at any tier, without modification, in the same form in which it is sold in the commercial marketplace; and

(2) Does not include bulk cargo, as defined in 46 U.S.C. 40102(4), such as agricultural products and petroleum products.

Construction material means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a

Solicitation No. P17PS01778 SACN – Replace Well at Howell Landing Page 17 of 37 single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

Cost of components means-

(1) For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost, including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued); or

(2) For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs associated with the manufacture of the component, including transportation costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the construction material.

Domestic construction material means-

(1) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States;

(2) A construction material manufactured in the United States, if-

(i) The cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability determinations have been made are treated as domestic; or

(ii) The construction material is a COTS item.

Foreign construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

United States means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas.

(b) Domestic preference. (1) This clause implements 41 U.S.C. chapter 83, Buy American, by providing a preference for domestic construction material. In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1907, the component test of the Buy American statute is waived for construction material that is a COTS item. (See FAR 12.505(a)(2)).

The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

(2) This requirement does not apply to information technology that is a commercial item or to the construction materials or components listed by the Government as follows: NONE

(3) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause if the Government determines that-

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable. The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the requirements of the Buy American statute is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6 percent;

(ii) The application of the restriction of the Buy American statute to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

Solicitation No. P17PS01778 SACN – Replace Well at Howell Landing Page 18 of 37

(iii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American statute. (1)(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including-

(A) A description of the foreign and domestic construction materials;

(B) Unit of measure;

(C) Quantity;

(D) Price;

(E) Time of delivery or availability;

(F) Location of the construction project;

(G) Name and address of the proposed supplier; and

(H) A detailed justification of the reason for use of foreign construction materials cited in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause.

(ii) A request based on unreasonable cost shall include a reasonable survey of the market and a completed price comparison table in the format in paragraph (d) of this clause.

(iii) The price of construction material shall include all delivery costs to the construction site and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free certificate may be issued).

(iv) Any Contractor request for a determination submitted after contract award shall explain why the Contractor could not reasonably foresee the need for such determination and could not have requested the determination before contract award. If the Contractor does not submit a satisfactory explanation, the Contracting Officer need not make a determination.

(2) If the Government determines after contract award that an exception to the Buy American statute applies and the Contracting Officer and the Contractor negotiate adequate consideration, the Contracting Officer will modify the contract to allow use of the foreign construction material.

However, when the basis for the exception is the unreasonable price of a domestic construction material, adequate consideration is not less than the differential established in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this clause.

(3) Unless the Government determines that an exception to the Buy American statute applies, use of foreign construction material is noncompliant with the Buy American statute or Balance of Payments Program.

(d) Data. To permit evaluation of requests under paragraph (c) of this clause based on unreasonable cost, the Contractor shall include the following information and any applicable supporting data based on the survey of suppliers:

(2) If evaluation results in a tie between an offeror that requested the substitution of foreign construction material based on unreasonable cost and an offeror that did not request an exception, the Contracting Officer will award to the offeror that did not request an exception based on unreasonable cost.

(d) Alternate offers.

(1) When an offer includes foreign construction material not listed by the Government in this solicitation in paragraph (b)(2) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9, the offeror also may submit an alternate offer based on use of equivalent domestic construction material.

(2) If an alternate offer is submitted, the offeror shall submit a separate Standard Form 1442 for the alternate offer, and a separate price comparison table prepared in accordance with paragraphs

(c) and (d) of the clause at FAR 52.225-9 for the offer that is based on the use of any foreign construction material…
