REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION

W911SD-18-T-0020 REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION

CURRENT AS OF 11 AM 30 MARCH 2018

The following information is provided to answer question by individual contractors. This may further amplify the PWS should here be a Post Award issue and this information is hereby incorporated as part of the PWS.

The opacity meter needs a zero test jig, Does the site have one? Under PS1 it is needed to be onsite and has to be specific to this unit and cannot be used elsewhere.

Yes, West Point own the zero test jig for the instrument.

Quarterly CGA gasses will need to be kept on site for testing after some repairs on the CEMS units, under QA/QC requirements. Will there be a place to store the quarterly CGA cylinders on site?

Yes, there is space to store the quarterly CGA cylinders in the power plant.

Can we subcontract the RATA and Stack testing?

No. We feel that this a critical part of the monitoring process and the prime contractor should be able to perform this function.

The Phoenix 2020 has been discontinued and parts are no longer available.

What is the procedure if a repair part is needed and cannot be located?

Environmental Monitor Service seems to be continuing support the instrument.

http://emsct.com/tag/phoenix-instruments-opacity/ West Point is in the process of planning to replace the instrument.

For Boiler 3, RACT testing in past was there a run of low mid and then high or all at one load of a variation of?

Last test was run at three different loads. This test is required to be performed by regulation.

Is testing done for natural gas firing and liquid fuel firing or just on one fuel?

Test is done on natural gas only.

What is the dimension of the breaching that is to be used for establishing the 3 traverse points?

The breaching that is used for establishing the 3-travers points is a Rectangular Duct Horizontal - area tested is adjacent to the CEMS probes, approximately 8 feet in width test flange to test flange.

The sampling points are spaced at 16.7%, 50.0% and 83.3% along the cross-section of the stack in accordance with 40CFR60-2002, Appendix B, PS-2 or other governing directives.

For boiler 1 what is the dimension of the breaching that is to be used for establishing the 3 traverse points?

The sampling points are spaced at 16.7%, 50.0% and 83.3% along the cross-section of the stack.

For boiler 2 what is the dimension of the breaching that is to be used for establishing the 3 traverse points?

The sampling points are spaced at 16.7%, 50.0% and 83.3% along the cross-section of the stack.

What will be the protocol for repairing the issues with the 2 new CEMS?

The new CEMS will be commissioned soon. The CEMS system has one year warranty from the time it’s commissioned.

Was there a Factory Acceptance Test done on the 2 new CEMS? Can we see the results?

The current contractor installing the CEMS will conduct commission test and demonstrate acceptance during their test. The test results can be requested after it becomes available.

Any chance of breaking this specification apart so the CEMS, COMS and testing is separated from the Fuel analysis and meter certification?

Not clear what this question is about. Each test is under different CLINS in the contract.

1.2.2.14 What is the frequency of the Landfill gas flare Opacity measurements (Method 9)

Who is responsible for Gas flow rate measurements and temperature for the l landfill gas flare (cubic feet /minute)?

The method 9 for landfill gas flare is conducted monthly.

There is an instrument at the gas flare facility for the gas flow rate. The contractor is responsible to take the reading monthly.

1.3 Does the contractor maintain ownership of the regulators? Are there regulators available that have been acquired by previous contractors?

Yes. The contractor maintains the ownership of the regulators and will be responsible for all serviceability issues.

1.3.4 c Does USMA own, and have available for use, a “Phoenix Off Stack Zero Jig”

Yes, West Point owns the zero jig for the instrument.

1.3.6 NOx RACT testing – Is it necessary to test for each fuel (gas, oil)?

Only natural gas is tested.

1.3.9 What is the frequency of the test requirement to certify the oil and gas meters?

Each oil and gas meters are certified once a year.

1.3.23 THE NOTE STATES: “with the exception of the EPA Method 19 fuel analysis, COMS and CEMS system software maintenance, the contractor shall not subcontract the above listed items”. Please clarify if the Contractor is able to subcontract the CEM maintenance, emergency repair, Quarterly Preventative Maintenance, 60-Day Preventive Maintenance on CEM Systems and 60-day Maintenance Parts for CEM Systems. Allowing subcontracting will improve the competitiveness of the contract.

As stated in the solicitation, only fuel analysis and maintenance for the software of COMS and CEMS systems can be subcontracted. All other items shall be completed by the primary contractor.

What gas spans did the previous emission testing company use for the O2 and NOx analyzers?

NO Span Gas is 180 ppm – 200 ppm not to exceed 200 ppm

When coming on site each time, how long and what will be the process of signing in so we know how to account for this time delay the in bid?

Once a contract is awarded each individual working on the contract can apply for and expect to receive a contractors badge allowing regular access to West Point. See details in the PWS for access to West Point. With such a pass in your possession, access to West Point is routine and none will need to stop at the Visitors Control Center. Individuals will still need to sign in and out of the Central Power Plant when working at the plant. If work is elsewhere on post, then proper coordination with the COR is required. To state the obvious, West Point is a US Military Installation and security conditions may change at any time. This should not affect the RFQ as it is a part of the process and the total cost. This is a competitive award and no special allowance shall be made to compensate for driving time or delays caused by security conditions and or special events that may be happening on Post. This is covered in the PWS.

In the event of a failed test what is the process to authorize a re-test?

In the event of a failed test, the contractor shall notify COR and the COR will contact KO to authorize re-test.

Can the bid due date be extended by two weeks to April 13, 2018?

The responses to the RFQ will close on 9 April at 10 AM. The time for submissions of RFI’s (Requests for Information) will close on 3 April at 1 PM - The solicitation was issued on 13 March and it now closes on 9 April as of W911SD-18-T-0020-0003. Ample time has been provided to ask questions and attend a site visit and prepare a response to the RFQ.

Is this a prevailing wage contract?

Per the solicitation: THE FOLLOWING US DOL WAGE DETERMIMNATION IS APPLICABLE

WD 15-4159 (Rev.-5) was first posted on www.wdol.gov on 01/16/2018. This information will be updated at the time of award for currency. In the event that any contractor who is responding to the RFQ has a Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) in place, then that CBA when approved by the US DOL, will become the governing Wage Determination.

Must the Past Performance Questionnaire be delivered to MICC by the bid due date?

Yes-The Past Performance Questionnaire is part of the RFQ and must be delivered by the closing date.

Does USMA require a “buddy system” i.e. two man test team?

West Point does not dictate how many persons are required to perform a particular test and or function. All work must be accomplished according to established industry standards and IAW all applicable governing regulations to include but not inclusive of the EPA, NYSDEC and OSHA.

What is the dimension of the breaching that is to be used for establishing the 3 traverse points?

The breaching that is used for establishing the 3-travers points is a Rectangular Duct Horizontal - area tested is adjacent to the CEMS probes, approximately 8 feet in width test flange to test flange.

30 March 2018

1.

Who shall supply the Adjustable Test Stands necessary in performance of the annually required off stack zero test of the opacity monitors?

The contractor shall have the necessary tools and/or equipment required to perform the work.

2.

Does the USMA supply the necessary transfer standards for the Oil and Gas Meters installed at the Power Plant?

No. West Point does not supply transfer standards.

3.

What portion of the year are the certifications of the fuel meters performed?

The certifications of the fuel meters shall be performed at about 12 months from previous year’s certification. The specific date will be provided to the contractor after contract award.

4.

As there are no existing test meter loops within the system, who will provide the scheduling and necessary coordination between the plant personnel and the contractor?

The contractor shall coordinate with COR and Central Power Plant personals for test schedules.

5.

We are assuming that West Point is requiring the Title V contractor to have the necessary meters or purchase the necessary meters for transfer standard in stock as typically only one meter can be calibrated per day without idling more than one boiler. Is this correct?

Yes. The contractor shall have the transfer standard and conduct the test with as minimal impact on the plant operation as possible.

6.

It is our understanding that the generator sets being tested for Method 9 are started and test run by the contractor with only limited assistance from USMA’s Electrical Department. Is this correct?

The assistance for running the generator sets from West Point Electrical Shop can be arranged with two weeks advance notice.

7.

It is our understanding that the Dual Fuel Oil Gas Heating Systems such as Holleder, Arvin, Crew and Sail, that have boilers that burn both oil and gas, will need to have two Method 9 Evaluations, one for oil and one for gas. It is our understanding that the previous contractor operated the boilers. Will contractor have to provide that service?

Only one Method 9 evaluation is required per year for each boiler. The base year will evaluate the primary fuel only. The option year 1 will evaluate the alternative fuel. The option years afterwards will rotate to evaluate the primary and alternative fuel.

The assistance for operating boilers from West Point Electrical Shop can be arranged/coordinated with two weeks advance notice.

8.

We are assuming one fuel sample annually for the dual fuel boilers located at Holleder, and one fuel sample for Main Power Plant, and one random sample from Oil supplied to Sludge Burners etc. Is this correct?

Only one random fuel oil sample is analyzed each year.

9.

It is our understanding that due to Army Regulations, wheel and drops on Cylinder Gas tanks (CGA and RATA Tanks) will need to have an escort to enter the base if the gases come by a common carrier or truck. It is our understanding that presently, when a tank is delivered, a contractor’s representative must be on site to connect regulators at the time of tank delivery, as there is no training program available for Plant Personnel to make the high pressure connections.

Yes, the contractor shall connect the regulators. The contractor shall arrange the delivery following all safety and security requirements. Upon award, the COR shall further discuss unique safety and security requirements for working on West Point. Keep in mind that due to world events, security procedures to include access requirements will evolve and change to meet to meet current conditions at the discretion of the Provost Marshall’s Office.

10.

It seems that the existing contractor owns and services the nine (9) required cylinders for CEM calibrations and that this contractor also supplies cylinder gas audit tanks and that these tanks are property of that contractor. Who will purchase the new tanks necessary for the project to continue?

The 9 required cylinders are owned by the existing contractor and the new contractor will need to purchase/rent the new tanks as required in Section 1.3.15. This is identified by clins.

11.

On the EPA Method 9 Visual Emissions Tests, are they restricted to the winter months as several of these sources do not run during the warmer weather but only during the winter? As such, will the Method 9’s continue to be performed strictly during the winter months?

Yes. Tests will be performed during winter months on these sources.

12.

Who will provide coordination for Visual Emissions at the Paint Shop?

The contractor shall coordinate with COR and Paint Shop personal with 2 weeks advance notice to schedule the test.

13.

It is under our impression that the four (4) Relative Accuracy Test Audits (RATAs) for the PEMS and CEMS, at times, are not performed under a single mobilization. If multiple mobilizations are required, how is this extra work to be addressed within the contract?

RATA tests for PEMS and CEMS are not required to complete in a single mobilization. It is the contractor’s choice to complete in a single mobilization or in multiple mobilizations.

14.

It appears that presently the contractor stocks parts for the CEM and PEM Systems, both the primary and the backups, in advance, will it be required to purchase those parts and have them in stock at USMA West Point?

The contractor is not required to stock necessary parts at West Point. However, it is the responsibility of the contractor to have the necessary parts or can obtain parts in a timely manner to maintain the PEMS and CEMS system uninterrupted operation.

15.

On the questionnaire, it asks for specific initial and final contract pricing. We have a policy to not disclose specific customer pricing. Is there a work around such as using a fictitious amount with an * I will hold true any discrepancies and provide written explanations accordingly. Is this an acceptable alternative?

We would like to see pricing so we can see the big picture. This shows cost overruns and also allows us to see if you have performed work of a similar magnitude. Since we are the US Government, we are governed by strict ethics rules and your private company information is not disclosed to anyone outside of the evaluation team and contacting officers who need to review this information. Your data is protected and is not shared with the general public.

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal

Contractors, applies to all contracts subject to the Service Contract Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is the victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.

ALL OCCUPATIONS LISTED ABOVE RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS:

HEALTH & WELFARE: $4.41 per hour or $176.40 per week or $764.40 per month

HEALTH & WELFARE EO 13706: $4.13 per hour, or $165.20 per week, or $715.87 per month*

*This rate is to be used only when compensating employees for performance on an SCA-covered contract also covered by EO 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal

Contractors. A contractor may not receive credit toward its SCA obligations for any paid sick leave provided pursuant to EO 13706.

VACATION: 2 weeks paid vacation after 1 year of service with a contractor or successor, 3 weeks after 5 years, and 4 weeks after 15 years. Length of service includes the whole span of continuous service with the present contractor or successor, wherever employed, and with the predecessor contractors in the performance of similar work at the same Federal facility. (Reg. 29 CFR 4.173)

HOLIDAYS: A minimum of eleven paid holidays per year: New Year's Day, Martin

Luther King Jr's Birthday, Washington's Birthday, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day, and

Christmas Day. A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.)

(See 29 CFR 4.174)

THE OCCUPATIONS WHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING:

1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: Under the SCA at section 8(b), this wage determination does not apply to any employee who individually qualifies as a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional employee as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a rate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals, (29 C.F.R. 541.

400) wage rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all occupations within those job families. In addition, because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds

$27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example, if an individual employee is nonexempt but nevertheless performs duties within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for which this wage determination does not specify an SCA wage rate, then the wage rate for that employee must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination.

Additionally, because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry, job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore, the exemption applies only to computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty consists of:

(1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to determine hardware, software or system functional specifications;

(2) The design, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including prototypes, based on and related to user or system design specifications;

(3) The design, documentation, testing, creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or

(4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F.R. 541.400).

2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY & SUNDAY PAY: If you work at night as part of a regular tour of duty, you will earn a night differential and receive an additional 10% of basic pay for any hours worked between 6pm and 6am.

If you are a full-time employed (40 hours a week) and Sunday is part of your regularly scheduled workweek, you are paid at your rate of basic pay plus a Sunday premium of 25% of your basic rate for each hour of Sunday work which is not overtime

(i.e. occasional work on Sunday outside the normal tour of duty is considered overtime work).

** HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL **

An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordnance, explosives, and incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening, blending, dying, mixing, and pressing of sensitive ordnance, explosives, and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide, black powder and photoflash powder.

All dry-house activities involving propellants or explosives. Demilitarization, modification, renovation, demolition, and maintenance operations on sensitive ordnance, explosives and incendiary materials. All operations involving re-grading and cleaning of artillery ranges.

A 4 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a low degree of hazard when working with, or in close proximity to ordnance, (or employees possibly adjacent to) explosives and incendiary materials which involves potential injury such as laceration of hands, face, or arms of the employee engaged in the operation, irritation of the skin, minor burns and the like;

minimal damage to immediate or adjacent work area or equipment being used. All operations involving, unloading, storage, and hauling of ordnance, explosive, and incendiary ordnance material other than small arms ammunition. These differentials are only applicable to work that has been specifically designated by the agency for ordnance, explosives, and incendiary material differential pay.

** UNIFORM ALLOWANCE **

If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this contract

(either by the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the state or local law, etc.), the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The Department of Labor will accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance:

The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees with an adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actual cost of the uniforms. In addition, where uniform cleaning and maintenance is made the responsibility of the employee, all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount, or the furnishing of contrary affirmative proof as to the actual cost), reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of $3.35 per week (or $.67 cents per day). However, in those instances where the uniforms furnished are made of "wash and wear" materials, may be routinely washed and dried with other personal garments, and do not require any special treatment such as dry cleaning, daily washing, or commercial laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set by the terms of the Government contract, by the contractor, by law, or by the nature of the work, there is no requirement that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs.

** SERVICE CONTRACT ACT DIRECTORY OF OCCUPATIONS **

The duties of employees under job titles listed are those described in the

"Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations", Fifth Edition (Revision 1), dated September 2015, unless otherwise indicated.

** REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE, Standard

Form 1444 (SF-1444) **

Conformance Process:

The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee which is not listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract (i.e., the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination), be classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR

4.6(b)(2)(i)). Such conforming procedures shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees

(See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(ii)). The Wage and Hour Division shall make a final determination of conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits which shall be paid to all employees performing in the classification from the first day of work on which contract work is performed by them in the classification. Failure to pay such unlisted employees the compensation agreed upon by the interested parties and/or fully determined by the Wage and Hour Division retroactive to the date such class of employees commenced contract work shall be a violation of the Act and this contract. (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(v)). When multiple wage determinations are included in a contract, a separate SF-1444 should be prepared for each wage determination to which a class(es) is to be conformed.

The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows:

1) When preparing the bid, the contractor identifies the need for a conformed occupation(s) and computes a proposed rate(s).

2) After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report listing in order the proposed classification title(s), a Federal grade equivalency (FGE) for each proposed classification(s), job description(s), and rationale for proposed wage rate(s), including information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the authorized representative of the employees involved, or where there is no authorized representative, the employees themselves. This report should be submitted to the contracting officer no later than 30 days after such unlisted class(es) of employees performs any contract work.

3) The contracting officer reviews the proposed action and promptly submits a report of the action, together with the agency's recommendations and pertinent information including the position of the contractor and the employees, to the U.S.

Department of Labor, Wage and Hour Division, for review (See 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(ii)).

4) Within 30 days of receipt, the Wage and Hour Division approves, modifies, or disapproves the action via transmittal to the agency contracting officer, or notifies the contracting officer that additional time will be required to process the request.

5) The contracting officer transmits the Wage and Hour Division's decision to the contractor.

6) Each affected employee shall be furnished by the contractor with a written copy of such determination or it shall be posted as a part of the wage determination (See

29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(iii)).

Information required by the Regulations must be submitted on SF-1444 or bond paper.

When preparing a conformance request, the "Service Contract Act Directory of

Occupations" should be used to compare job definitions to ensure that duties requested are not performed by a classification already listed in the wage determination. Remember, it is not the job title, but the required tasks that determine whether a class is included in an established wage determination.

Conformances may not be used to artificially split, combine, or subdivide classifications listed in the wage determination (See 29 CFR 4.152(c)(1)).
