Keswick, CA. The powerplant has two 70 MW generation units. Unit 2 will undergo refurbishment in the fall and winter of 2022. The Unit will be disassembled so that a major component, the turbine, can be replaced. Several interior metal surfaces of the unit must be machined in order to accept the new turbine. These surfaces are coated with paint, which must be removed prior to machining.

1.2. Access. The painted surfaces are available for work only after Unit disassembly. Scaffolding and/or ladders may be required to reach surfaces. Contractor to verify from plans and at pre-construction site visit.

1.3. Testing. The paint has not been tested for lead or other contaminants. Contractor shall assume that all paint subject to this work contains lead.

2. SCOPE OF WORK

2.1. Contractor shall

2.1.1. prevent contamination from dust and debris generated by paint removal activities by providing containment immediately around the work area,

Upon receiving the notification from the Contractor, the Contracting Officer must -

(d) Independent contractors. An independent contractor shall be considered a subcontractor.

(e) Agreement. By submission of an offer and execution of a contract, the Offeror/Contractor agrees in performance of the contract in the case of a contract for—

(1) Services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the

Government for contract performance to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities.

Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count toward the 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded;

(2) Supplies (other than procurement from a nonmanufacturer of such supplies), it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities.
