PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

Professional Environmental Services Joint Base Lewis McChord, Yakima Training Center, Washington

14 May 2020 Part 1

General Information

1 GENERAL: This is a non-personal services contract to provide Professional Services to the Joint Base Lewis McChord Yakima Training Center (JBLM YTC) Directorate of Public Works Environmental Division (DPW-ED). The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform Environmental Compliance, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), Cultural Resource, Wildlife, Natural Resource, and Pollution Prevention/Sustainability related support at JBLM YTC. Specific programs supported by this action include: Air, Water, Environmental Compliance, Cultural, Pollution Prevention (P2), NEPA, Wildlife, Natural Resources, Solid Waste, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Sustainability, and Toxic Substances.

1.2 Background: JBLM YTC is a United States Army installation that primarily supports military training activities (maneuver training, testing and live fire training). The installation is located in south central Washington State, and it is bounded on the west by Interstate 82, on the south by the city of Yakima, on the north by the city of Ellensburg and Interstate 90, and on the east by the Columbia River. It comprises approximately 327,000 acres, most of which consists of shrub-steppe, making it one of the largest areas of shrub-steppe habitat remaining in Washington State. The terrain is undulating and dominated by four east-west parallel ridges, the Saddle Mountains, Manastash Ridge, Umtanum Ridge, and Yakima Ridge anticlines, which are part of the Yakima Fold Belt near the western edge of the Columbia River Plateau. Common Columbia Basin shrub-steppe plant species and communities are found on the installation. Main vegetation components consist of sagebrush, bitter brush, and bunch grasses. Military units stationed at JBLM are the primary users at JBLM YTC for maneuver and live fire training. JBLM YTC’s DPW ED, Yakima, Washington, is responsible for planning, managing, and accomplishing all environmental functions at JBLM YTC. JBLM YTC’s DPW ED accomplishes their responsibilities through a series of robust environmental programs which include: air, water, environmental compliance, cultural resource management, P2, NEPA, wildlife, natural resources, solid waste, sustainability, and toxic substances programs. Additionally, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has been assigned lead role in developing this PWS and providing contract administration and oversight to ensure the required support, services, and deliverables are provided in accordance with this contract.

1.3 Objectives: To provide Environmental Compliance, NEPA, Cultural Resource, Wildlife, Natural Resource, and P2/Sustainability related support at JBLM YTC. Specific programs supported by this action include: Air, Water, Environmental Compliance, Cultural Resources, P2, NEPA, Wildlife, Natural Resources, Solid Waste, RCRA, Sustainability, and Toxic Substances.

Activities required include direct support to collect, analyze and report data; develop and provide training and briefings; review, update, and provide comments for reports and plans and other environmental documents; assist with obtaining and complying with operational permits (e.g., monitoring, reporting, application preparation, etc.);

inspections, audits, reports, and corrective action recommendations; regulated and non-regulated waste management support; and other support related to Environmental Compliance, NEPA, Cultural Resources, Wildlife, Natural Resources, and P2/Sustainability programs.

1.4 Scope: Professional Services. Services shall be performed by the contractor, as an independent contractor and not as an agent of the Government, providing the necessary support contained in this PWS. This support requires knowledge of environmental information that supports the JBLM YTC Commander, staff, tenant organizations, and training unit customers. The technical support provided by the contractor ensures JBLM YTC complies with all Federal, state, local laws and regulations.

The contractor shall provide qualified key personnel to support program development and program support, as well as weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual reporting requirements contained in the PWS as defined in Section 5, Specific Tasks. Historically, the requirements in this PWS were successfully accomplished with professionals in the Environmental Science, Biology, and Archeology disciplines, as well as personnel knowledgeable in regulatory compliance, NEPA, computer data entry, database development, and other administrative program activities.

1.5 Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for a Base Period of 7 months and four Optional Periods of 12 months each. Periods of Performance for optional and/or non-severable services included within PWS are identified in Part 5, Specific Tasks, as required.

1.6 General Information

1.6.1 Quality Control and Management Plan (QCMP): The contractor shall develop and maintain an effective quality control program to ensure services are performed in accordance with this PWS. The contractor shall develop and implement procedures to identify, prevent, and ensure non-recurrence of defective services. The contractor’s quality control program assures that the work complies with the requirement of the contract. The plan shall also specify the work flow process which specifically outlines how tasks are relayed from the Government to the Contractor, distributed to the individual who will perform the task, task accomplishment/tracking documentation, method of meeting suspenses, and conflict resolution.

This plan will be a part of the Contractor’s Program Management Plan as outlined in Part 5 of this PWS.

1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The Government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is primarily focused on what the Government must do to ensure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the performance standards. It defines how the performance standards will be applied, the frequency of surveillance, and the maximum acceptable defective service.

1.6.3 Recognized Holidays: The Contractor is not required to perform duty on the following recognized holidays:

New Year’s Day Labor Day Martin Luther King Jr.’s Birthday Columbus Day President’s Day Veteran’s Day Memorial Day Thanksgiving Day Independence Day Christmas Day

Approval will be granted with concurrence from the DPW-ED and Contracting Officer Representative (COR). The contractor must at all times maintain an adequate workforce for completion of all tasks in accordance with this PWS.
