Debris Collection and Disposal on Lake Roosevelt

Bureau of Reclamation

140R1723Q0010

1. Mission

The Contractor shall manage the debris collection facilities at China Bar and Kettle River and the debris disposal facility at Boise Cove efficiently and effectively in order to prevent debris from entering and floating on the waters of Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake and the Lake Roosevelt National Recreational Area.

2. Scope

Reclamation has debris collection facilities and a disposal facility on Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake (the part of the Columbia River behind the Grand Coulee Dam), near the town of Kettle Falls, Washington. The collection facilities are currently located at the mouth of the Kettle River (at approximately River Mile

707) and at China Bar (at approximately River Mile 724). The disposal facility is located at Boise Cove, downstream from the mouth of the Kettle River (at approximately River Mile 702). The collection facilities capture floating debris which principally consists of logs, snags, and slash from upriver logging, uprooted trees and brush from riverbank undercutting, and miscellaneous floating debris and garbage.

Debris from the collection facilities is “bagged” with boom logs and towed to Boise Cove. A concrete access ramp at Boise Cove allows access to the debris for removal from the lake, depending on the Lake level. The debris is then processed for final disposal. This contract is for the collection and disposal of debris. The annual debris collection over a recent five (5) year period is as follows:

2018 – no information available 2019 – 1652 tons 2020 – 3656.5 tons

2021 – 1334.31 tons 2022 – 1804.13 tons

The estimated period of performance for this contract shall be as follows:

Base Year: June 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024

Option Year 1: April 1, 2024 through March 31, 2025 Option Year 2: April 1, 2025 through March 31, 2026 Option Year 3: April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027 Option year 4: April 1, 2027 through March 31, 2028

3. Site Visit A site visit is scheduled for April 5, 2023 at 10 am, local time. While it is not mandatory to attend in order to submit a quote, it is strongly recommended. And email must be sent to the Contracting Officer before April 3, 2023, at 5 pm, PST to pgross@usbr.gov with an official notification of attendance. The request must contain the company name, a contact name of each person attending, email address and phone number for each person, UEI number (previously DUNS), Tax ID number, and SAM.gov registration status.

4. General Requirements

This section describes the general requirements for this effort. The following sub-sections provide details of various considerations on this effort.

4.1. Non-Personal Services

mailto:pgross@usbr.gov

The Government shall neither supervise contractor employees nor control the method by which the contractor performs the required tasks. Under no circumstances shall the Government assign tasks to, or prepare work schedules for, individual contractor employees. It shall be the responsibility of the contractor to manage its employees and to guard against any actions that are of the nature of personal services or give the perception of personal services. If the contractor believes that any actions constitute, or are perceived to constitute personal services, it shall be the contractor's responsibility to notify the Contracting Officer (CO) immediately.

4.2. Contract Administration

The contractor shall establish processes and assign appropriate resources to effectively administer the requirement. The contractor shall respond to Government requests for contractual actions in a timely fashion. The contractor shall have a single point of contact between the Government and Contractor personnel assigned to support contracts or task orders. The contractor shall assign work effort and maintaining proper and accurate time keeping records of personnel assigned to work on the requirement.

4.3. Personnel Administration

The contractor shall provide the following management and support as required. The contractor shall provide for employees during designated Government non-workdays or other periods where Government offices are closed due to weather or security conditions. The contractor shall maintain the currency of their employees by providing initial and refresher training as required to meet the PWS requirements.

The contractor shall make necessary travel arrangements for employees. The contractor shall provide necessary infrastructure to support contract tasks. The contractor shall provide administrative support to employees in a timely fashion (time keeping, leave processing, pay, emergency needs).

4.4. Subcontract Management

The contractor shall be responsible for any subcontract management necessary to integrate work performed on this requirement and shall be responsible and accountable for subcontractor performance on this requirement. The prime contractor will manage work distribution to ensure there are no Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) considerations.

5. Locations

5.1. China Bar Facility

5.1.1. Located at Columbia River Mile 724. Worksite is approximately 2 acres in size.

5.1.2. Facilities at China Bar consist of a 2,070-foot main earth dike, a 1,600-foot auxiliary earth dike, and a number of log booms. A double string of boom logs, each boom log approximately 33 feet long, make up the 2,500-foot North Main Boom, a double string of boom logs 950 feet long make up the Middle Main Boom, and a single string of boom logs 2,500 feet long make up the South Main Boom. The North, Middle, and South log booms form a continuous string of boom logs that remove debris from the current of the river in a shearing action and together are referred to as the shear boom. The current Buoy and Boom Log inventory is as follows:

5.1.2.1. 1 each Head Buoy (Green )

5.1.2.2. 1 each Nav Aid Buoy (Green)

5.1.2.3. 3 each Can Buoy’s (Orange) *2 each out of service/replaced by ball buoy’s

5.1.2.4. 18 each Ball Buoy’s (Orange)

5.1.2.5. 4 each Spare Ball Buoy’s (Orange)

5.1.2.6. Approximately 356 each Boom Logs (in the water presently)

5.1.3. There is one holding area log boom for storage of debris diverted by the main shear boom and an additional safety log boom to ensure that debris doesn’t escape the collection facility. Also at this facility are storage buildings, a small workshop, and a small building for day-time crew requirements. ** There are NO sanitary facilities**.

5.1.4. During a sample period a 24 average discharge at Grand Coulee Dam with a forebay elevation of 1289, the velocity at China Bar was observed to be approximately 8.5 feet per second or about 5 knots.

5.1.5. During average spring lake-level conditions the main surface current is such that the bulk of the debris can be diverted from the river on a rising reservoir and collected in the holding areas by tending and manipulating the log booms.

5.1.6. The critical period for operations and maintenance of the collection facilities at China Bar is when the flow of the Columbia River surpasses 100,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) as measured at the International Border by the U.S. Geological Survey gage, and the lake surface elevation is below 1285 feet, (USBR datum at the forebay of Grand Coulee Dam).

This period normally occurs from about the middle or latter part of March until about the middle of July, depending upon weather conditions over the river drainage area.

5.1.7. Critical conditions begin to occur when the Lake is lowered, in anticipation of a high spring run-off, approximately elevation 1276 feet and below, which does not allow debris to be diverted out of the river and into the collection area. The high run-off currents and the debris accumulation against the shear boom can cause a break in the log boom, debris not to be collected, and conditions adversely affecting boat operation safety. Debris held in the collection area will be beached when the level of the lake drops below elevation 1268 feet. In 2022, the 100,000 cfs runoff lasted until September.

5.1.8. This facility continues to collect debris throughout the year. However, the COR will advise the Contractor when the initial debris collection period is over and the debris can be towed to the Boise Cove facility for disposal. This typically occurs mid-August, prior to lake elevation dropping below 1285.

5.1.9. The Contractor is required to perform maintenance and upkeep of the facility grounds at

China Bar (i.e. general landscaping – mowing and weed eating of grass and weeds around buildings for fire control, basic road maintenance – fallen tree and snow removal for contractor access to the China Bar property).

5.2. Kettle River

5.2.1. Located at Columbia River Mile 707.

5.2.2. The debris collection boom is located in FDR Lake at the mouth of the Kettle River, and consists of single strings of log booms, totaling approximately 4,500 feet long, spanning the mouth of the Kettle River. There is a permanent opening in the log boom for public navigation when the lake elevation is above approximately 1255.0. An additional single string of boom logs, approximately 2,788 feet long, forms a liner along the main section of the collection area of the log boom, for additional strength to hold collected debris and to encircle the debris to hold it in place after the collection period and is used to tow the debris to the disposal site. The current Buoy and Boom Log inventory is as follows:

5.2.2.1. 9 each Ball Buoy’s (4 - Orange, 2 - Green, and 3 – Red)

5.2.2.2. Approximately 220 each Boom Logs (including Liner)

5.2.3. Small amounts of debris flow from the Kettle River when the spring run-off is below 10,000 cubic feet per second (cfs). The amount of debris flowing from the Kettle River greatly increases when flows are 18,000 cfs or greater. The spring run-off from the Kettle River begins to subside in approximately mid-July.

5.2.4. The critical period of operation and maintenance of the collection facilities at the Kettle River is when the flow of the Kettle River surpasses 10,000 cfs. This period normally occurs from about the middle of May until the end of June. Maintenance of the Kettle River boom system should be performed prior to high river flows. During high flows the amount of debris increases and the system should be monitored for breaks and the loss of debris.

5.2.5. Critical conditions occur when FDR Lake is lowered, in anticipation of high run-off, and the log boom is in shallow water or even a portion is beached. This creates a condition where the strength of the current from the Kettle River is not dissipated or reduced by the higher water level of the lake. The debris then collects against the log boom with such a force that the debris is either pushed under the log boom and liner or the log boom breaks and causes a loss of debris. High run-off conditions and shallow water depth adversely affect boat operation safety.

5.2.6. The COR will advise the Contractor when the collection period is over which is generally mid to late summer when Kettle River flows diminish, and new debris is no longer being collected. After the collection period is over the debris is then towed to Boise Cove for disposal.

5.3. Boise Cove

5.3.1. Located at Columbia River Mile 702, worksite is approximately 2.7 acres in size, including the concrete ramp.

5.3.2. The debris disposal facility at Boise Cove is located on Lake Roosevelt and is adjacent to Boise Cascade Corp.'s log storage yard. It consists of a log boom, comprised of approximately 45 boom logs in a single string, enclosing a majority of the river cove.

This log boom is used to store bagged debris on the inside and moorage of Government and Contractor owned tugboats, work boats, and other flotilla around the perimeter. An installed concrete access ramp, at the cove, is used as a work ramp for debris removal during debris disposal operations. The current Buoy and Boom Log inventory is as follows:

5.3.2.1. 4 each Ball Buoy’s (Orange) – 3 in use, 1 spare

5.3.2.2. Approximately 325 each Boom Logs (25 in use, 200 in pocket to replace booms in the base year, 100 Spare)

5.3.3. The fixed-concrete access ramp at this facility must have a lake elevation of approximately 1275 feet, or above, for debris removal equipment to be able to reach and remove debris from the lake.

5.3.4. Critical conditions occur when FDR Lake is lowered, 1270 feet and below, which reduces the capacity or area inside the log boom, the shoreline becomes very steep creating difficult access to equipment moored on the log boom or for removing debris.

Boise Cove is only partially protected from the wind. High winds can and do cause the log boom and mooring lines to occasionally break. Care should be taken to monitor boom and mooring lines. Additionally, reservoir levels may fluctuate overnight allowing moored equipment to move further off-shore or pull vessels against the shore and rocks.

5.3.5. The Contractor is required to perform basic fire control landscape maintenance and upkeep of the facility grounds at Boise Cove (i.e. general landscaping – mowing and weed eating of grass and weeds for fire control, basic maintenance of ramps (concrete and gravel) to maintain a good state of repair for safe and proper use, basic road maintenance – fallen tree and snow removal for contractor access to the Boise Cove property).

5.4. Temporary Log Boom at Bisbee Cove

5.4.1. Historically, a temporary log boom has been used across the river from the Boise Cove facility at Bisbee Cove if an upstream log boom breaks or is unable to contain debris.

Once log booms are fixed and river conditions permit, the debris is brought to Boise Cove for disposal and the temporary log boom is removed. This temporary log boom consists of the items used at Boise Cove for containment:

5.4.1.1. 2 each Ball Buoys

5.4.1.2. 2 each Navigation Aids

5.4.1.3. Approximately 50 Boom Logs

5.4.1.4. Anchor Barge

5.4.1.5. 5-ton temporary concrete anchor

5.5. Grand Coulee Dam

5.5.1. There may be a requirement to maintain/repair the log boom at Grand Coulee Dam, and/or recapture debris that has accumulated at and around the Dam, in the same manner as required for maintenance and/or repair of log booms or recapturing debris at the other Government collection and disposal facilities.

5.5.2. If the Government ascertains that a debris recapturing effort, downstream of the Colville River, (other than at China Bar, the Kettle River, and Boise Cove), is required (at no fault of the contractor), then such additional costs shall be borne by the

Government in accordance with the clause 52.212-4. The contractor will be responsible for mobilization (delivery of equipment, tugboats, personnel, etc.) to the site, recapturing debris, making any repairs to the log boom as required, and towing the debris to the Boise Cove disposal site. This additional level of effort to be performed only after a bi-lateral modification is completed.

5.5.3. This is based on whether it has been determined the recapture of debris is not caused by inadequate service by the Contractor. If the recapture of debris is the responsibility of inadequate service by the Contractor, then the Contractor shall perform at no additional cost to the Government.

6. Performance Requirements

While the Government makes no guarantees of water levels, river flows, the amount of debris, or the timetable for collection and disposal, a normal year will require continuous attention by the Contractor to the changing river currents and the need to maintain and manipulate the log booms, anchors and buoys for efficient debris collection and debris breach protection, check moorage of flotilla, and maintain the navigation lights. Usually, the Contractor should expect spring run-off to begin in April and /or May. The

Operation and Maintenance period of this contract, debris collection and disposal and facility and equipment maintenance, is from April 1, through November 30, of each applicable purchase order year.

The following section specifies the Objectives and Performance Elements for the Contract.

6.1. The log booms shall contain/hold debris with no loss.

6.1.1. The contractor shall maintain the log boom system. The log booms shall not have any breaks or contain any weak areas which allow loss of debris. The Contractor shall make a reasonable effort to repair the log boom break and/or recapture and contain the debris that escaped from the log booms. The COR shall be notified within 4 hours, by the Contractor, of discovery of any boom break and/or debris breaches, or any conditions which may cause a boom break or debris breach, or possible damage to Government- Furnished Property (GFP). The Contractor and COR shall examine the break/breach together and attempt to determine the reason for the break and/or loss of debris.

6.1.1.1. The logs booms shall be repaired within 48 hours unless low water, inclement weather, and/or strong currents create conditions that won’t allow immediate repair.

Warning buoys shall be placed on the broken section of the boom to aid in safe boat passage. Then the contractor shall repair the log booms within 48 hours that conditions allow. It is the contractor’s responsibility to ensure there is a temporary debris collection site if there is a boom failure at one of the collection sites.

6.1.1.2. Mobilization to recollect floating debris in an approximate visual size of 20’ X 20’ or greater shall begin within 48 hours of discovery of loss of debris, or if because of unsafe conditions, within a time frame agreed to by the Contractor and COR.

6.1.2. The Contractor shall manipulate the log booms to capture the maximum amount of debris at China Bar and the Kettle River to minimize the amount of debris floating in

FDR Lake and at Grand Coulee Dam. The debris shall be collected, towed, and restrained by existing log boom systems furnished by the Government. The Contractor shall tow the debris from Reclamation's debris collection facilities to the Boise Cove disposal site at a minimum once per operating season.

6.1.3. The Contractor shall prepare a weekly work log. The log shall show, at a minimum:

Description of work performed; employees on the job; date; time of beginning to end of service; repair or replacement of any of the installed facilities such as boom logs, chains, buoys, anchor lines, equipment maintenance, navigational lights and other necessary equipment; weight of green tonnage and weather conditions. The weekly work logs may be read at any time by the COR.
