PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Characterization, Transportation, and Disposal of Soil Small Arms Complex OB/OD River Site, Fort Wainwright, Alaska

9 June 2017 Revised 14 July 2017

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The objective of this performance work statement (PWS) is to characterize, transport, and dispose of excavated soils at the Small Arms Complex Open Burn/Open Detonation (OB/OD) River Site (Table 1), Fort Wainwright, Alaska in accordance with the “Off-Site Rule”, 40 CFR 300.440. The soils were generated during the Time Critical Removal Action (TCRA) at the OB/OD River Site during the 2015 and 2016 field seasons. Additional soil will be generated during the 2017 field season and are included in this scope of work.

The Contractor shall furnish all labor, management, facilities, supplies, equipment, transportation, material, and do all things necessary for, or incidental to, performance of the work as set forth below. The Contractor shall furnish to the Government, reports and other data together with supporting material developed during the period of performance. During the progression of the work, the Contractor shall provide adequate professional supervision and quality control to assure the accuracy, quality, completeness, and safe progress of the work.

2.0 SITE HISTORY

The site is located along the northern bank of the Tanana River within the firing fans from the Small Arms Range Complex (see Figure 1 in FES, 2017). The 5,053 acre Small Arms Range Complex is still in use and is part of the Fort Wainwright Range Complex - Tanana Flats Training Area, which encompasses over 622,000 acres. The Small Arms Range Complex is located directly to the south of the Fort Wainwright cantonment area. The entire 622,000 acre training area is designated as a Dud-Impact Area which means there is a potential to encounter unexploded ordnance (UXO) anywhere within this boundary. The Fort Wainwright Range Complex - Tanana Flats Training Area is an active range. There are no plans for any changes to the current land use in the immediate or distant future. Access to the OB/OD River Site is restricted based on the use of the Small Arms Range Complex and will require coordination with Fort Wainwright Range Control Officer.

On June 27, 2013 significant quantities of munitions debris (MD) were observed by Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (Jacobs) during a site visit to the OB/OD River Site with personnel from Fort Wainwright Range Control, U.S. Army, and others. The site visit also identified a trench having a fuel odor. The U.S. Army initiated a TCRA in February 2015 by performing a geophysical evaluation of the site using an Electromagnetic (EM) time domain metal detector and ground penetrating radar (GPR). Based on the survey an area of approximately 0.5 acres was found to contain near surface and sub-surface metallic anomalies. In June of 2015 vegetation was removed from the site following a magnetometer assisted surface sweep conducted by UXO personnel. A gravel road and gravel pad were constructed to access the site and facilitate field activities.

The TCRA was performed by the Environmental and Munitions Design Center, Baltimore District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE-Baltimore), in 2015 and 2016. Excavation began in August 2015 and continued through September 2016 with breaks for winter conditions (October 2015 through April 2016) and elevated water levels in the Tanana River (July 2016 through August 2016). In March 2016 excavation was conducted within the river channel to access sediment and MD once frozen conditions allowed access to this material. Activities resumed in May 2016 and were completed in September 2016 once water levels in the Tanana River had subsided. Excavated soil and sediment was screened by UXO technicians to identify and remove munitions and explosives of concern (MEC), material documented as an explosive hazard (MDEH), MD, and small arms ammunition (SAA).

During the field effort UXO technicians manually screened the excavation spoils for MEC, MDEH, MD and SAA. The spoils were stockpiled on site and were mechanically screened a second time. A trommel was used to process the excavated soil and sediments and separate residual metallic debris (primarily MD and SAA) from the soil. Soil from one stockpile (DU-10) was not mechanically screened and was composed of soil remaining at the bottom of the two trenches after the majority of the metal was removed. After it was screened, processed soil was stockpiled onsite and all MEC, MDEH, and SAA was transferred to Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit for proper disposal. MD and other metallic debris determined to be material documented as safe (MDAS) was recycled. Approximately 2,000 cubic yards (cy) of soil and sediment was excavated and screened to remove MEC, MDEH, MD, and SAA. During the TCRA approximately 600,000 pounds of metal debris was sent off post for recycling, 8,375 small arms items will be sent to Tooele Army Ammunition Depot for destruction, and 336 MEC/MDEH were removed from the OB/OD River Site and transferred to EOD for disposal.

Four soil stockpiles remain at the OB/OD River Site. The stockpiles are designated Decision Unit (DU) -7 through DU-10, in accordance with the Post TCRA Soil Sampling Report (FES, 2017).

Soil samples were collected as Multi-Increment (MI) samples as well as discrete samples. MI samples were analyzed for explosives (EPA Method 8330B), metals (EPA Methods 6010C, 6020A, and 7471B), perchlorate (EPA Method 6850), white phosphorous (EPA Method 7580), and pH (EPA Method SM9045D). Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) analysis of RCRA metals (EPA Methods 1311, 6010C, 7470A) and select explosives compounds (2,4- Dinitrotoluene [DNT] and Nitrobenzene, by EPA methods 1311 and 8330B) was performed on MI samples to determine disposal requirements. Discrete samples were analyzed for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s, by EPA method 8260C-LL), gasoline range organics (GRO, by method AK101), diesel range organics (DRO, by method AK102), and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC, by EPA method 8270D-LL). Laboratory results are presented in the Post TCRA Soil Sampling Report (FES, 2017). In general, the discrete samples are consistent with and bracket the MI sample results. While the data has been determined to be of sufficient quality for use several results were qualified as estimates and a few were rejected based on missed sample holding times. This primarily affects the TCLP explosives analysis. In addition DU-8 was not fully characterized as the bottom three feet of stockpiled material was not included in the MI analysis. DU-9 exceeded the TCLP criteria for lead and is considered hazardous.

A fifth stockpile will be created in 2017 from soil remaining in the trenches that exceeded 18 AAC

75.341 soil cleanup levels. Soil confirmation samples collected in September 2016 indicate that DRO, 2,4-DNT, 2,6-DNT, Naphthalene, and Nitroglycerin remain above cleanup levels in and around the disposal trenches. USACE-Baltimore will conduct the excavation and any required screening of this material as it is stockpiled. Based on the confirmatory geophysical surveys this material should be free of MEC, MDEH, MD, and SAA.

Table 2 identifies the stockpile ID, stockpile volume, source of material, contaminants that exceeded Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) cleanup levels (ADEC, 2016), and TCLP exceedances from the MI samples. This information will be provided to the contractor for informational purposes as part of the government furnished material (GFM).

Ultimately, the contractor shall perform whatever waste characterization is required leading to disposal and/or treatment in accordance with all Federal, State, and Local regulations.

Task 2 – Sample Collection and Analysis

The contractor shall be responsible for collecting waste characterization samples from four of the five soil stockpiles (DU-7, DU-8, DU-10, and DU-11) located at the OB/OD River Site (see Section 2). DU-11 will be a new stockpile that will be generated from additional excavation that will take place in early summer 2017. This DU will be an estimated 1,500 tons. DU-11 has not been characterized but confirmation samples collected following excavation activities in 2016 indicate that DRO, 2,4-DNT, 2,6-DNT, Naphthalene, and Nitroglycerin remain above ADEC cleanup levels. Sample results will be used to determine the appropriate method of disposal (hazardous vs. non-hazardous) or treatment for these soils. Samples shall be collected in accordance with standard sampling protocols in accordance with the WP and EPA/ADEC guidelines. Samples shall be analyzed with the most current EPA and/or ADEC analytical methods. Analytical methods listed below may be substituted for other methods as long as the laboratory is ELAP certified for the substituted method and the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) concurs.

Multi-Increment Characterization Samples The Contractor shall collect one representative MI sample from each of the four stockpiles (DU7, DU8, DU10, and DU-11). One of the stockpiles will require triplicate analysis (3 MI samples) to determine the 95% upper confidence level (UCL) for soil contaminants. Laboratory analysis for all four stockpiles shall include TCLP Explosives (EPA Methods 1311-8330B). Laboratory analysis for DU-8 shall also include DRO (by AK Method 102), VOCs (EPA Method 8260C), and SVOC’s (EPA Method 8270D). Laboratory analysis for DU-11 shall also include DRO (by AK Method 102), explosives (EPA Method 8330B), and SVOC’s (EPA Method 8270D). Additional analysis may be required by the soil disposal facility. The contractor shall submit MI characterization samples to the laboratory on an expedited turn-around time (7 days). MI Stockpile sampling may require a small excavator to assist in collection of representative samples.

The contractor shall be responsible for all of the associated waste characterization for disposal of all hazardous and non-hazardous waste in accordance w/all local, state, and federal regulations. This data will supplement the existing data provided to the contractor as part of the GFM. All laboratories utilized under this contract must be certified by ADEC and the Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP). Analytical data requirements are described in Section 4 of this PWS. Analytical reports, including QA/QC data, shall be furnished in an electronic SEDD 5.2 Stage 2a and a level IV PDF format for each sample delivery group submitted.

Task 3 - Transportation and Disposal of Hazardous Soil (DU-9)

The Contractor shall provide all equipment, transportation documentation, and labor to load, transport, and dispose approximately 750 tons of contaminated hazardous soil from soil stockpile DU-9. This DU failed TCLP analysis for lead and is assumed to be a hazardous waste (FES, 2017).

The contractor shall be responsible for performing any additional chemical analysis required to dispose of this soil in accordance with all Federal, State, and local requirements at an EPA-approved disposal facility. The disposal of the soil at DU 9 must be completed (i.e. removed from the site and in route to the disposal facility) by October 31, 2017.

Optional Task 3a – Transportation and Disposal of Additional Hazardous Soil

The Contractor shall provide all equipment, transportation documentation, and labor to load, transport, and dispose of an additional 10 tons of contaminated hazardous soil from any of the four remaining soil stockpiles (DU-7, DU-8, DU-10, and DU-11). This optional task can be awarded up to 460 times. The contractor shall be responsible for performing any additional chemical analysis required to dispose of this soil in accordance with all Federal, State, and local requirements at an EPA-approved disposal facility

Optional Task 3b – Transportation and Disposal of Non-Hazardous Soil

The Contractor shall provide all equipment, transportation documentation, and labor to load, transport, and dispose 375 tons of contaminated non-hazardous soil from any of the four remaining soil stockpiles (DU-7, DU-8, DU-10, and DU-11). Preliminary characterization results (FES, 2017) indicate elevated levels of select metals and explosive compounds (copper, lead, mercury, 2,4-dinitrotoluene, 2,6-dinitrotoluene, nitroglycerin, etc.), above ADEC soil cleanup levels. Preliminary results indicate that the other four stockpiles (DU-7, DU-8, DU-10, and DU-11) will not be hazardous. However that determination may change based on further characterization. The contractor should be prepared to dispose of all stockpiled soil as hazardous, if this occurs Optional Task 3a above will be executed.

Contaminated soils shall be transported to an EPA-approved disposal facility in accordance with all Federal, State, and Local requirements.

Optional Task 3c – Transportation and Disposal of Additional Non-Hazardous Soil

The Contractor shall provide all equipment, transportation documentation, and labor to load, transport, and dispose of an additional 10 tons of contaminated non-hazardous soil, as described above. This optional task can be awarded up to 420 times.

Optional Task 3d - Transportation and Treatment of Soil

The contractor shall provide all equipment, transportation documentation, and labor to load 375 tons of contaminated soil for transportation from the site to Organic Incineration Technology (OIT), Incorporated in North Pole, AK for thermal treatment. The soil treatment option will require approval by ADEC and EPA. The contractor shall be responsible for providing OIT any required analytical sampling results as required by their operating permit. The contractor shall arrange for transportation of the soil to and from OIT’s facility. After treatment all soil is to be returned to the FTW Small Arms Range Complex from which it was removed. The material shall be placed on the range at the location(s) directed by the Fort Wainwright Range Control Officer.

Optional Task 3e – Transportation and Treatment of Additional Soil

The Contractor shall provide all equipment, transportation documentation, and labor to load for transportation from the site to OIT, an additional 10 tons of contaminated soil, as described in Optional Task 3d. This optional task can be awarded up to 420 times.

Optional Task 3f – Stockpile Removal Confirmation Sampling

In the event that deteriorated stockpile liner is observed, or other indication that a release has occurred from the stockpiles, the Contractor shall perform Stockpile Removal Confirmation Sampling. The Contractor shall collect one representative MI sample from beneath each of the five stockpiles (which have indications of a release) once they have been removed to confirm that contaminants did not leach beneath the stockpile liner. One of the stockpile footprint samples will require triplicate analysis (3 samples) to determine the 95% upper confidence level (UCL) for soil contaminants. The contractor shall submit stockpile confirmation samples to the laboratory using standard turn-around times. Laboratory analysis should include DRO (Method AK102). The contractor shall provide a unit cost for each MI sample. This option may be awarded up to seven

(7) times. The first stockpile confirmation sample collected will require three (3) samples to provide triplicate analysis. Each of the remaining stockpiles where confirmation sampling is required would require one (1) MI sample.

Task 4 - Reporting

The Contractor shall submit a report that summarizes all activities completed under this PWS, including soil transport and disposal, characterization, laboratory analytical data, and any other activities. The report will include the following:

• A detailed description of site activities,
