The PWS supplies potable water to three (3) RV sites and one (1) public restroom containing seven (7) toilets, four (4) sinks, one (1) urinal, and two (2) drinking fountains.

The current well has trouble meeting the water volume demands of the park. The problem worsens during holidays with high visitation and during periods of drought. Locations for a new well are extremely limited due to the park being flood water storage for Buffumville Dam, proximity to a septic system, and proximity to neighboring livestock.

a. Existing Well

i. Located in the northwest corner of paved parking area. See attached informational photos for exact location.

ii. Approved by MassDEP for a withdrawal rate of 3,000 gallons per day.

iii. Well measures approximately 685’ in depth and 6” in diameter.

iv. Features 2-horsepower, variable-speed submersible pump set at 600’.

v. Well casing measures 8” in diameter. Casing is heavily deteriorated due to bleach corrosion.

vi. Well, was hydro-fracked twice previouslyto improve water generation, yielding limited results.

b. Existing Water Control Shed

i. Located in the northwest corner of paved parking area. See attached informational photos for exact location.

ii. Shed measures approximately 85” in height, 70” in length, and 70” in width.

iii. Metal construction atop cement pad.

iv. Houses 35-gallon pressure tank, water meter, filter housing, electrical panel, lighting, copper piping, and variable speed motor for submersible pump.

v. Electric utilities are fed underground from an electrical enclosure in southwest corner of paved parking area, originating from a 100-amp circuit breaker mounted on the interior shed wall. See attached informational photos for more information.

vi. Water pumped from the well is fed from the water control shed to a 1-1/2” water line which supplies water to the park amenities. See attached informational photos for more information.

vii. There are no known lead or asbestos hazardous materials.

11. Products for New PWS Installation:

a. Well

i. Sanitary seal or watertight cap.

ii. Minimum of 6” diameter.

iii. Well casing:

1. Material: Carbon steel

2. Well casing shall extend two (2) feet above ground level.

iv. Well screen:

1. Material: Grade 304 stainless steel

v. Minimum of 6” diameter.

vi. Depth shall be sufficient to yield a minimum of 12 gallons per minute when pumped continuously for 24 hours. The minimum depth of the well shall be 450’. Greater depths of 600’, 750’, and 1,000’ will be optional task items that the Government may choose to exercise to ensure the minimum gallons per minute are met.

vii. The ground immediately surrounding the well casing shall be sloped downward and away from the well in all directions to eliminate the possibility of surface water ponding.

III. EXECUTION:

Installation shall occur in accordance with the statement of work and all local, Federal, state, and International Building Code requirements.

a. Acquire all appropriate permits and authorizations for installation of a new seasonal public water supply well within the state of Massachusetts:

If at a well depth of 450’ and the minimum flow rate is not reached, the Government may choose to exercise the optional task items of drilling to greater depths of 600’, 750’, and 1,000’ to ensure the minimum gallons per minute are met. See the attached informational photos for an approximate location. The exact location shall be approved by the

TPOC.

ii. The new well and all construction activities shall be in conformance with the Guidelines for Public Water Systems published by the Mass DEP as well as all Town of Charlton and Federal regulations.

iii. New well will be approximately 50’-80’ away from the existing well to be grandfathered into the existing well’s permitting conditions set by Mass DEP.

iv. All water pumped from the well for testing purposes will be fed to a designated area to be determined by the TPOC in coordination with the Contractor. The Contractor is responsible for supplying a temporary pump and any necessary power such as a generator.

The water quality report shall show proof of meeting Massachusetts drinking water standards. All testing must be done in accordance with 310 CMR 22.00 (Massachusetts Drinking Water Regulations). Among these requirements are the use of a laboratory certified in the specific analyte, using approved methodology and reporting on Mass DEP forms (pursuant to 310 CMR 22.11A) as well as meeting all applicable method detection limits, including PFAS.

g. Capping and securing of NEW public water supply well:

i. Upon acceptance of the reports, the Contractor shall secure the new well for sanitary and safety purposes so that it may be connected to existing park utilities at a later date. Any temporary equipment used by the Contractor in the execution of this contract is to be removed from the well before it is sealed.
