1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Scope

The Contractor shall provide all management, tools, supplies, equipment, and labor necessary to perform the contract requirements. This Performance Work Statement (PWS) defines the full range of environmental, construction, and optimization services necessary to conduct site restoration including maintenance of established remedies, implementation of optimization, and remediation activities to achieve performance objectives as identified in this contract.

The former Galena Forward Operating Location (FOL) is located in a remote area in the western portion of interior Alaska (AK). Several sites are being addressed following the Comprehensive

Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) process. The remaining sites are being addressed under the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC)

Contaminated Sites Program. ADEC is the lead regulatory support agency. The United States

Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) is consulted, as needed, particularly with regard to hazardous waste and underground injection control (UIC) wells.

This contract includes implementation of the remedy at CS001 in FY25 in accordance with the

Record of Decision (ROD). The performance objective for CS001 is to successfully implement the remedy and demonstrate it is performing as designed.

This contract also includes remedial process optimization (RPO) of existing remedies in FY25 as follows:

• “Hot Spot” excavations at sites CST011 Area 2, SS016, and SS018.

• In-situ remediation optimization (injections) at sites CPL006, SS006, SS015, SS017, SS019, and ST009.

The Contractor is solely responsible for reviewing all publicly available information and forming their independent, professional conclusions/interpretation of site conditions and requirements to achieve the performance objectives of this contract.

The Contractor shall function as an integral team member in support of the United States Air

Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) and Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) mission, to include the sharing of information with other AFCEC Contractors and AF personnel, and cooperation with communities, regulators, and other government entities. Requirements such as the achievement of accurate, on-time, quality performance objectives and timely identification and solution of impediments to successful project execution are necessary to ensure efficient management of this contract. Early involvement in the process by all parties allows for the development of the most cost-effective and technically sound approach or solution. The AFCEC will rely on the Contractor’s expertise in recognizing and addressing problematic issues and successful execution of this contract. 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, or other legal requirements.

(WGS84) reference system using, geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude) or, projected to the appropriate zone of the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Grid System, using feet or metric coordinate units per the coordinate system used. The preferred AF standard is WGS84. Further guidance on mapping units, coordinate systems and projections can be made available by the

COR.

It is the responsibility of the Contractor to collect all geospatial data using mapping-grade or survey-grade Global Positioning Systems (GPS) or comparable traditional survey methods. In the case of contracts involving utility construction, location and attribute data will be obtained at the time of excavation. Specific precision requirements shall be established at the contract level.

Source data and product data remain the property of the AF. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to be prepared to explain and demonstrate the company’s process for protecting all geospatial data, including geometry, attributes, metadata, topologies, and relational database schemas and operations used in association with this PWS.

The Contractor shall incorporate green and sustainable remediation (GSR) techniques to the extent practicable. GSR considers the environmental impact of remedial activities during the remedy selection process. Incorporating GSR into an environmental restoration project includes evaluating activities and selecting a remedy that minimizes the environmental impact from the remedy yet provides the maximum environmental benefit to the cleanup over the entire life of the remedial project.

4.1 Site Characterization

The Contractor shall perform scoping, field investigation, and sampling/analysis that characterizes environmental conditions as required to achieve the performance objectives of the site. The Contractor shall identify specific site characterization activities proposed to achieve the performance objectives. (CDRL A001)

4.2 Site Preparation

The Contractor shall perform site work as necessary to prepare sites for restoration activities.

Contractor shall obtain appropriate approvals and shall build connections or new systems for electrical power, water, sewer, gas distribution, telephone, and other utilities, as required, to meet the objectives specified in this contract. The Contractor shall be responsible for the provision and cost of utilities with implementation of existing and proposed remedies, including activities such as installation of primary and temporary power and individual meters for necessary utilities.

Due to the lack of a state utility locating service at Galena, geophysical surveys are required for all subsurface work in addition to hand digging where appropriate to avoid damaging underground utilities. (CDRL A001)

4.3 Conservation

Activities shall be planned and implemented in a manner that protects existing site utilities, structures, surface features, service operations, monitoring and other types of wells, and the general site environment. This includes the protection of prehistoric and/or historic sites identified in the base Integrated Cultural Resources Management Plan; endangered/threatened wildlife species and their potential habitats; exemplary natural areas as defined in the base

Integrated Natural Resources Management Plan; and trees, shrubs, and other vegetation not in the affected zone from dust damage, soil compaction, and physical contact with machines and equipment. Work activities shall be coordinated with the AFCEC COR and BRAC

Environmental Coordinator (BEC) to ensure compliance with these requirements. The

Contractor shall conduct all operations and activities with the intent of reducing the amount of pollution generated. Specific areas to be focused on are generation of solid waste, use of hazardous materials, use of ozone depleting chemicals, generation of hazardous waste, and use of
