Section SF 1449 - CONTINUATION SHEET

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Specifications for Herbicide Spraying

GENERAL:

These specifications are for the application of herbicide at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Belleville

Locks & Dam Project. Please reference Exhibit A for project maps, with the spraying areas delineated. Note that all areas are approximate, and site visits are strongly encouraged. The project office located at the Belleville

Locks & Dam.

SCOPE:

A-1 The herbicide application USACE proposes to have applied at the Belleville Locks & Dams for the duration of this Contract is 2 gallons of Accord Concentrate (glyphosate 53.8%) mixed with 7 pounds of

Sahara DG (Imazapyr 7.78%, Diuron 62.22%) with a nonionic surfactant per 100 gallons of water, provided a minimum 25 foot buffer zone from all surface water is maintained. Within this 25 foot buffer zone, the approved mix is 2 gallons of Accord Concentrate (glyphosate 53.8%) mixed with 6 pints of

Habitat* (Imazapyr 28.7%), with a nonionic surfactant at 0.50% per 100 gallons of water. *Note: Habitat is indicated under the specimen label for use at USACE projects. No substitution of other forms or brand names of Imazapyr to meet the 28.7% may be made without strict consent.

The contractor will incorporate HI-LIGHT by Becker-Underwood or other colorant equivalent as approved by the Lockmaster for their area as a temporary colorant that will leave a clear indication of treated areas.

All colorant treated herbicide solution will be applied in a uniform and accurate manner according to the manufacturer’s instructions and the laws of the State of Ohio and State of West Virginia (where applicable).

A-2. Mixing shall take place off of U.S. Government property or in those areas on U.S. Government property specifically directed by the Lockmaster. Rinsing of contractor’s equipment shall not be permitted on U.S.

Government property. Transport of the pesticide or pesticide mix shall be done in a manner to reduce the probability of spills. All chemicals are to be mixed, handled, applied, and disposed of in accordance with all manufacturer’s instructions and applicable State and Federal laws by a contractor possessing a valid Public

Operators License for General Industrial Vegetation Application issued by the State of Ohio, and a

Commercially Certified Pesticide Applicators license issued by the State of West Virginia. Proof of this license must be in possession of the contractor and the applicator at all times while on the project and presented, upon request, to any employee, agent, or representative of the Corps of Engineers, the State of

Ohio, the State of West Virginia, or other agencies having jurisdiction in these matters.

A-3. All spraying must be performed in accordance with specimen label directions and federal and state laws. The amount of spray per acre should be just sufficient to achieve a total kill (spray-to-wet), but not excessive to the point of runoff. Any missed areas shall be re-sprayed. A photocopy of the valid applicator’s license in the State (Ohio or West Virginia) in which the work occurs, and proof of insurance shall be provided to the Lockmaster. Mixing shall take place off of U.S. Government property or in those areas on

U.S. Government property specifically directed by the Lockmaster. Rinsing of contractor’s equipment shall not be permitted on

U.S. Government property. Transport of the pesticide or pesticide mix shall be done in a manner to reduce the probability of spills. The contractor shall apply product only during periods when there is very little to no hazard from spray drift, and during periods when there are minimal chances for chemical to be washed into surface waters.

A-4. Contractor is to guarantee total eradication of vegetation within 30 days of treatment unless drought conditions exist that limits the uptake of herbicides. Any growth that continues after treatment will be re-treated in accordance with product labels for re-treatment, and in accordance with the contract specifications, at no additional expense to the Government. Any missed areas shall be re-sprayed.

A-5 The contractor will be responsible for traffic control of vehicles on public roadways adjacent to treatment areas with the use of warning devices and flagger as needed. Flaggers must have high visibility safety vests and other appropriate equipment for traffic control. Since some of the spraying will be along rail road beds, the contractor shall be required to contact the rail road for permission to be on or adjacent to the rail road tracks. All treatment areas within or adjacent to public recreation sites will be posted appropriately for a minimum of 48 hours during and following treatment to notify users of the presence of the herbicides.

Spraying will not take place on weekends unless approved by the Belleville Lockmaster.

A-6. A site inspection by the bidder prior to the submission of bids is strongly recommended. All acreage amounts provided in Exhibit A are estimated and bidders should inspect the site for specific areas, and special conditions. Appointments for site inspections should be made with the Lockmaster for the Project.

Phone numbers for the Lockmaster can be found on the attached specification sheets.

A-7. Herbicide application will be accomplished during the active growing season in the green late summer.

Contractor shall be responsible for determination of the proper time frame, within the active growing season, for maximum effectiveness of the application. The Contractor shall contact the Lockmaster at least 48 hours before this time frame, to coordinate usage of the Government furnished property and services and ensure site availability (height of water on stone slopes, etc).

The Government anticipates that the actual duration of the spraying will be approximately five days.

A-8. Payments: The contractor shall submit an invoice for 75% of the total amount of each job upon completion of the initial treatment (treatment No. 1) and an invoice for 25% of the total amount of each job upon completion of any required re-spraying (treatment No. 2) provided that satisfactory results are achieved.

A-9. At the option of the Government this contract may be renewed for four (4) additional one year periods from 01 Jan 2020 thru 31 Dec 2024. Dates for treatments to begin shall be decided during the option years at the discretion of the Lockmaster. Type and concentration of Herbicide may change at the discretion of the

Government.

The Corps of Engineers has environmental protection as its priority interest, working within consideration of available Government resources.

SITES TO BE TREATED SITE ACRES*

Belleville Locks & Dam 10.6 acres of total treatment area

NOTE: Site Visit: Site visits are highly recommended so that accurate estimates of application areas can be determined by potential bidders. Also, once on site the contractor will contact the project office and a representative will point out the areas to be sprayed. Square foot and acreage estimates are approximations of total areas where treatment will occur and are NOT representative of the total amount of spraying that may occur.

Administrator. The notarized letter is not to be submitted to the Huntington Contracting Office as it is not our requirement. Contact the supporting Federal Service Desk at http://www.fsd.gov, or by telephone at 866-606-8220

(toll free) or 334-206-7828 (internationally) Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (EDT), for FREE assistance.

Effective June 29, 2018 vendors creating or updating their registration can have their registration activated prior to the approval of the required notarized letter. However, the signed copy of the notarized letter must be sent to the

GSA Federal Service Desk (FSD) within 30 days of activation or the vendor risks no longer being active in SAM.

Vendors can check whether an account is active by performing a query by their CAGE or Unique Entity Identifier

(known as DUNS). Vendors are highly encouraged to begin registering as soon as possible in order to be considered for contract awards. Remember, there is no cost to use SAM. To find out additional information about the changes http://www.sam.gov/ http://www.fsd.gov/ of the SAM registration process, contractors should visit the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) link located at the top of the SAM homepage (www.sam.gov).

CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

52.204-21 BASIC SAFEGUARDING OF COVERED CONTRACTOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS (JUN 2016)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Covered contractor information system means an information system that is owned or operated by a contractor that processes, stores, or transmits Federal contract information.

Federal contract information means information, not intended for public release, that is provided by or generated for the Government under a contract to develop or deliver a product or service to the Government, but not including information provided by the Government to the public (such as on public Web sites) or simple transactional information, such as necessary to process payments.

Information means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual (Committee on

National Security Systems Instruction (CNSSI) 4009).

Information system means a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information (44 U.S.C. 3502).

Safeguarding means measures or controls that are prescribed to protect information systems.

(b) Safeguarding requirements and procedures.

(1) The Contractor shall apply the following basic safeguarding requirements and procedures to protect covered contractor information systems. Requirements and procedures for basic safeguarding of covered contractor information systems shall include, at a minimum, the following security controls:

(i) Limit information system access to authorized users, processes acting on behalf of authorized users, or devices

(including other information systems).

(ii) Limit information system access to the types of transactions and functions that authorized users are permitted to execute.

(iii) Verify and control/limit connections to and use of external information systems.

(iv) Control information posted or processed on publicly accessible information systems.

(v) Identify information system users, processes acting on behalf of users, or devices.

(vi) Authenticate (or verify) the identities of those users, processes, or devices, as a prerequisite to allowing access to organizational information systems.

(vii) Sanitize or destroy information system media containing Federal Contract Information before disposal or release for reuse.

(viii) Limit physical access to organizational information systems, equipment, and the respective operating environments to authorized individuals.

(ix) Escort visitors and monitor visitor activity; maintain audit logs of physical access; and control and manage physical access devices.

(x) Monitor, control, and protect organizational communications (i.e., information transmitted or received by organizational information systems) at the external boundaries and key internal boundaries of the information systems.

(xi) Implement subnetworks for publicly accessible system components that are physically or logically separated from internal networks.

(xii) Identify, report, and correct information and information system flaws in a timely manner.

(xiii) Provide protection from malicious code at appropriate locations within organizational information systems.

(xiv) Update malicious code protection mechanisms when new releases are available.

(xv) Perform periodic scans of the information system and real-time scans of files from external sources as files are downloaded, opened, or executed.

(2) Other requirements. This clause does not relieve the Contractor of any other specific safeguarding requirements specified by Federal agencies and departments relating to covered contractor information systems generally or other

Federal safeguarding requirements for controlled unclassified information (CUI) as established by Executive Order

13556.

(c) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (c), in subcontracts under this contract (including subcontracts for the acquisition of commercial items, other than commercially available off-the-shelf items), in which the subcontractor may have Federal contract information residing in or transiting through its information system.

(End of clause)

52.212-1 INSTRUCTIONS TO OFFERORS--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (DEVIATION 2018-O0018) (OCT 2018)

(a) North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code and small business size standard. The NAICS code and small business size standard for this acquisition appear in Block 10 of the solicitation cover sheet (SF

1449). However, the small business size standard for a concern which submits an offer in its own name, but which proposes to furnish an item which it did not itself manufacture, is 500 employees.

(b) Submission of offers. Submit signed and dated offers to the office specified in this solicitation at or before the exact time specified in this solicitation. Offers may be submitted on the SF 1449, letterhead stationery, or as otherwise specified in the solicitation. As a minimum, offers must show--

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The time specified in the solicitation for receipt of offers;

(3) The name, address, and telephone number of the offeror;

(4) A technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to evaluate compliance with the requirements in the solicitation. This may include product literature, or other documents, if necessary;

(5) Terms of any express warranty;

(6) Price and any discount terms;

(7) "Remit to" address, if different than mailing address;

(8) A completed copy of the representations and certifications at FAR 52.212-3 (see FAR 52.212-3(b) for those representations and certifications that the offeror shall complete electronically);

(9) Acknowledgment of Solicitation Amendments;

(10) Past performance information, when included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information); and

(11) If the offer is not submitted on the SF 1449, include a statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation. Offers that fail to furnish required representations or information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration.

(c) Period for acceptance of offers. The offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 30 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offers, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(d) Product samples. When required by the solicitation, product samples shall be submitted at or prior to the time specified for receipt of offers. Unless otherwise specified in this solicitation, these samples shall be submitted at no expense to the Government, and returned at the sender's request and expense, unless they are destroyed during preaward testing.

(e) Multiple offers. Offerors are encouraged to submit multiple offers presenting alternative terms and conditions, including alternative line items (provided that the alternative line items are consistent with subpart 4.10 of the

Federal Acquisition Regulation), or alternative commercial items for satisfying the requirements of this solicitation.

Each offer submitted will be evaluated separately.

(f) Late submissions, modifications, revisions, and withdrawals of offers:

(1) Offerors are responsible for submitting offers, and any modifications, revisions, or withdrawals, so as to reach the Government office designated in the solicitation by the time specified in the solicitation. If no time is specified in the solicitation, the time for receipt is 4:30 p.m., local time, for the designated Government office on the date that offers or revisions are due.

(2)(i) Any offer, modification, revision, or withdrawal of an offer received at the Government office designated in the solicitation after the exact time specified for receipt of offers is “late” and will not be considered unless it is received before award is made, the Contracting Officer determines that accepting the late offer would not unduly delay the acquisition; and--

(A) If it was transmitted through an electronic commerce method authorized by the solicitation, it was received at the initial point of entry to the Government infrastructure not later than 5:00 p.m. one working day prior to the date specified for receipt of offers; or

(B) There is acceptable evidence to establish that it was received at the Government installation designated for receipt of offers and was under the Government's control prior to the time set for receipt of offers; or

(C) If this solicitation is a request for proposals, it was the only proposal received.

(ii) However, a late modification of an otherwise successful offer, that makes its terms more favorable to the

Government, will be considered at any time it is received and may be accepted.

(3) Acceptable evidence to establish the time of receipt at the Government installation includes the time/date stamp of that installation on the offer wrapper, other documentary evidence of receipt maintained by the installation, or oral testimony or statements of Government personnel.

(4) If an emergency or unanticipated event interrupts normal Government processes so that offers cannot be received at the Government office designated for receipt of offers by the exact time specified in the solicitation, and urgent

Government requirements preclude amendment of the solicitation or other notice of an extension of the closing date, the time specified for receipt of offers will be deemed to be extended to the same time of day specified in the solicitation on the first work day on which normal Government processes resume.

(5) Offers may be withdrawn by written notice received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers.

Oral offers in response to oral solicitations may be withdrawn orally. If the solicitation authorizes facsimile offers, offers may be withdrawn via facsimile received at any time before the exact time set for receipt of offers, subject to the conditions specified in the solicitation concerning facsimile offers.
