Part 4 Service Requirements:

1. General: Furnish all equipment, supplies, materials, transportation, and labor to perform plumbing services at the Elm Brook Park recreation area, including de-winterizing the park water system in the spring, winterizing the park water system in the fall, and replacing a section of plumbing for a spigot, as well as replacing the union, pipe, and elbow on the pressure tank for the lower restroom. Services are to be provided in accordance with the following performance work statement and schedule.

2. Service Definition:

a. One service is defined as a single completion of all requirements for each task as described in Section 3, Service Tasks below.

b. The Contractor shall only be paid for work fully completed. If a partial service is rendered, payment will be adjusted according to percent of area completed. Partial service is defined as completing anything other than all tasks for designated locations as identified in Part 5, Service Locations and Schedule(s).

3. Service Tasks:

a. De-Winterizing Park Water System Requirements:

i. Connect three (3) water pressure tanks; one at the well pump house and one located in each of the restroom pipe chases.

ii. Connect twelve (12) toilet and four (4) urinal flush valve assemblies.

iii. Connect nine (9) sink traps.

iv. Connect four (4) spigots to water fountains.

v. Check all flush valves, faucets, and water fountains for leaks.

vi. Disconnect 3 cracked wall-mounted toilets, 1 floor-mounted toilet, and 2 wall-mounted urinals from the wall. Properly dispose of cracked toilets and urinals in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations. Mount new Government-provided toilets and urinals utilizing the existing holes. Secure toilets and urinals to the wall with hardware. Connect flushometers and check to ensure there are no leaks.

vii. Remove up to 16 broken flush valves from flushometers. The exact number of flush valves needing to be replaced will be determined at the time of service.

Replace broken flush valves with Government-provided flush valves. Properly dispose of broken flush valves in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations. Reassemble flushometers. Check for proper operation of flushometers and ensure there are no leaks.

viii. Disinfect the park water system and the Park Ranger cabin water system using the proper dosage of either standard liquid bleach (8.25%) or 70% chlorine pellets to obtain a disinfection dose of approximately 50 ppm in all parts of the well and water system. The recommended dosage consists of approximately ¾ gallon of standard liquid bleach (8.25%) and 25 chlorine pellets per drilled well.

ix. Follow manufacturer procedures for system startup and perform a full flush cycle on the two water sediment filtration systems located in the well pump house.

Ensure that the chlorine treatment has fully entered the filtration systems. See Exhibit 8 and 9 for existing conditions.

The water sediment filtration systems each have a Clack Corporation size 1665 mineral / media vessel with a Water-Right Water Conditioner valve system and control panel model number: IMBF-1665A-00-05-00-00-00.

Each vessel contains standard water sediment filtration media (AG) as prescribed in 2010 when the system was installed.

x. Systematically run the water system from the well pump house to the next valve opening until the bleach solution is in all of the water lines. The Contractor shall be able to detect the smell of bleach from all fixtures to know the bleach solution has been distributed to all water lines and end points. The disinfection dose shall remain in the system for 12-24 hours.

xi. After the disinfectant has been in the system for 12-24 hours, flush the chlorine from the system. Connect garden hoses to the spigots at the water fountains and restrooms and flush the water to either a wood line or field as specified by the TPOC. After flushing the water from the spigots at half the flow capacity for approximately 2 hours, continue flushing the system by turning on all sink faucets and flushing toilets until the free chlorine level is less than 1.0 mg/L free chlorine and the scent of chlorine can no longer be detected at the end points. This procedure is specified in the NHDES Drinking Water & Groundwater Bureau’s Start-up Guidance for Seasonal Public Water Systems.

xii. Check to ensure the wellhead caps or covers are secure with seals intact and a screened vent.

NOTE: The standard liquid bleach used shall be free of detergents or fragrances.

NOTE: Pool bleach additives are not permitted for disinfecting the park water system. Pool bleach additives contain algaecides and are not certified for drinking water use.

NOTE: Wells deeper than 200 ft. require chlorine pellets in addition to bleach to improve dispersion deep into the well. Both drilled wells in Elm Brook Park are 340 feet deep.

NOTE: When flushing the disinfectant from the water lines, caution shall be taken not to draw the static water level below the pump level. The lines shall be flushed at half the flow capacity at the end points.

NOTE: The park water system may require a second round of disinfection if the water quality samples test positive for bacteria. The water quality testing will be completed as part of a separate contract. The initial water quality testing will occur within one (1) week of the de-winterization service being completed. If a second round of disinfection is needed, the Contractor shall be notified within 1 business day, and a second round of disinfection would be required to be completed no later than May 22.

b. Option: Second Disinfectant Treatment

i. If water quality samples from either the park water system and/or the Park Ranger cabin water system test positive for bacteria after the first disinfection treatment, a second round of disinfection treatment will be required for one or both water systems. The second round of disinfection treatment shall involve repeating steps viii to x from Service Task a. De-Winterizing Park Water System Requirements.

ii. The Government is only obligated to pay for work completed.

c. Winterizing Park Water System Requirements:

i. Perform a full flush cycle on the two water sediment filtration systems located in the well pump house and follow manufacturer procedures to prepare for winter closing. See Exhibit 8.

ii. Disconnect three (3) water pressure tanks; one at the well pump house and one located in each of the restroom pipe chases.

iii. Transport the water pressure tank from the lower restroom to the well pump house for storage.

iv. Cap the pipe connections for the pressure tanks at each restroom and well pump house connection.

v. Cap each of the pressure tank connections on each pressure tank after they have been disconnected and emptied.

vi. Open drain valves at each water fountain to drain.

vii. Drain the water system and blow out the piping with air pressure starting at the well house tank.

viii. Remove all fixture stop stems and toilet/urinal flush valves to drain them.

ix. Disconnect sink traps.

x. Pour enough non-toxic RV anti-freeze into each of the toilets and urinals to fill the traps.

xi. Final product shall include all water being purged from the park water system.

d. Replace Plumbing for Spigot

i. Remove existing section of 1” diameter copper pipe including one (1) street 90 elbow, two (2) standard 90 elbows, connecting pipe(s), and a female adapter fitting.

See Exhibit 5.

ii. Replace the section of plumbing with new 1” diameter copper pipe and fittings to fully reconnect the system with the spigot.

iii. Properly connect/solder all pipe connections for a proper fit and finish.

iv. Check the pipe for leaks.
