PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS)

FY25 Conchas Dam Foundation Drain Cleaning

PART 1

GENERAL INFORMATION

1.0 General: This is a non-personal services contract to complete Foundation Drain Cleaning (Weir Drains) at Conchas Dam Project. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the primary contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: In accordance with these specifications, the Contractor shall supply all labor, materials, equipment, shop facilities, supervision, tools, and any other items necessary to complete the herein detailed Foundation Drain Cleaning at Conchas Dam, as listed below.

The Contractor shall verify all existing conditions, sizes, and quantities prior to start of work.

1.2 Background: The Conchas Dam was built between 1935 and 1939, measuring 1,250 feet long and 200 feet high. Nine pipes, each 100 foot long of 12-inch diameter steel pipe drains with a slope of 3.5%, with the point of origin within a gutter in the Dam Operating Gallery and discharges on the downstream face of the Dam into the Stilling Basin. Each drainage pipe is approximately 14 foot above the water level in the Stilling Basin. History indicates that approximately every ten (10) years, the mineralization deposits and debris build up significantly and prevent proper drainage, as intended.

Water at Conchas Dam is highly mineralized, and deposits must be removed on a periodic basis. The last cleaning of the foundation drains occurred in 2014, with the two end pipes (1 and 9) being cleaned, in a similar manner to the prior cleaning. In 2004, all nine pipes were cleaned using a Vac-tor truck, similar to what is used for cleaning sewer lines. A grinding/cutting head jet propelled by high pressured water was used to clean/grind mineralized/calcium deposits. Access to drainpipe discharge ends was by use of a pontoon boat. The pontoon boat was nosed up to the fact of the Dam below each drainpipe and anchored to the face of the Dam. A ladder was anchored to the boat and to the face of the Dam, and the person on the ladder had to wear rain gear, a body harness, PFD, and had to be anchored to the face of the Dam for safety.

1.3 Objectives: The Contracts goals are as follows:

1.3.1 The Contractor shall provide all materials, tools, parts, equipment, labor, transportation, supervision, and other items to complete cleaning of the nine (9) Foundation Drains.

1.3.2 The Contractor shall provide a video documenting the inside of each drainpipe, nine (9) drainpipes in total, to the extent possible before any work is done to ascertain the existing condition of each of the drainpipes.

1.3.3 The Contractor shall provide a video documenting the inside of each drainpipe, nine (9) drainpipes in total, to the extent possible after the cleaning has taken place.

1.4 Scope: The Contractor shall prepare video footage of the inside of each drainpipe (before cleaning), complete the cleaning of the foundation drains, and provide video footage of the inside of each drainpipe (after cleaning). The Contractor shall provide all properly licensed equipment operators or skilled professionals required to complete the tasks herein.

1.5 Period of Performance: The period of performance shall be for 180 days from the date of Contract Award.

1.6 General Information:

1.6.1 Place of Performance: The work to be performed under this contract will be performed at Conchas Dam Project, office located at 287 Bell Ranch Rd, Conchas Dam, NM 88416, which is 32 miles northwest of Tucumcari, NM and 77 miles south of Las Vegas, NM.
