4.5 Quality

The Contractor shall maintain a Quality Management Program compliant with USACE, DoD, and other Federal Government requirements. This section describes the Quality Control components for this effort. The following sub-sections provide details of various considerations on this effort.

4.5.1 Quality Control

The Contractor shall develop a Task/Delivery Order QCP and maintain an effective quality control program to ensure services are performed in accordance with the IDIQ contract and each individual PWS. The Contractor shall develop and implement procedures ensure and monitor quality, and to identify, prevent, and ensure non-recurrence of defective services. The Contractors QCP is the means by which contract compliance is managed, assured, controlled, and documented.

The finalized QCP will be accepted by the Government at the time of the award of the Task/Delivery Order. The Contracting Officer may notify the Contractor of required modifications to the plan during the period of performance. The Contractor then shall coordinate suggested modifications and obtain acceptance of the plan by the Contracting Officer. Any modifications to the program during the period of performance shall be provided to the Contracting Officer for review no later than 10 working days prior to effective date of the change. The QCP shall be subject to the Governments review and approval. The Government may find the QCP "unacceptable" whenever the Contractors procedures do not accomplish quality control objective(s). The Contractor shall revise the QCP within 10 working days from receipt of notice that QCP is found "unacceptable."

1.0 SCOPE

This is a fictional scenario developed for the ERS MATOC RFP. All information needed to develop a sample submittal is included in this document, i.e., no additional research is needed nor is there any additional support documentation to review concerning this Sample Project.

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) defines the scope of environmental services necessary to conduct site restoration. The range of activities include maintenance of established remedies, implementation of optimization to enhance remedial progress at the applicable site, and achievement of site-specific objectives. The Contractor shall undertake Environmental Remediation activities to achieve the Performance Objective (PO) as described in this PWS.

NOTE: The term “Government” includes the Air Force (AF) and United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). While regulators are a governmental entity, they are also a third party over whom the Government has no control over and, as such, will be referred to as “regulators”.

1.1 Project Description

A fictional active military installation in Florida, Mystery Air Force Base (AFB) historically stored jet petroleum grade 4 (JP-4) on a portion of the base (herein referred to as site SWMU- 007 and is being managed under the RCRA program. All structures, foundations and slabs have been previously removed from the site. The site is currently covered with grass that is regularly mowed by the Installation. The site has not been utilized since the JP-4 storage facility was removed in 1969. All tanks and associated piping were removed at that time. The site is relatively flat with surface drainage generally directed to the north. The Installation’s long-term plan (approximately 10 years out) is to construct a recreational training facility and running track on this site and military housing. The performance objective (PO) is therefore, remediation of the site to residential conditions, no further action without institutional controls and abandonment of all monitoring wells. The proposal shall address remediation of soil and ground water (GW) for all exposures (ingestion, inhalation, vapor intrusion and dermal). The site is bounded on three sides by wooded undeveloped area and one side is bounded by a paved road. The contractor will conduct all activities in accordance with all Federal, State (FDEP) and local environmental laws and regulations.

Soil and GW sampling have been conducted at the site and it has been determined that Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) were identified in soil and groundwater.

Concentrations of 1-methylnaphthalene exceeding Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP)’s residential soil cleanup target level (SCTL) are confined to three closely spaced (separated by no more than 20 feet) rectangular areas of varying size covering an aggregate area of approximately one (1) acre. Concentrations of 1-methylnaphthalene range from 2,000 mg/kg to 7,000 mg/kg. Contamination goes through the subsurface to ground water.

Three feet of the clay soils (classified as CL in accordance with the unified Soils Classification System (USCS)) were observed in each of the three contaminated areas. Overall, the site is underlain by sand and gravel. The unconfined water table aquifer begins at 25 feet below ground surface, and the average hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer is 9x10-7 (m/s) and porosity is 35%. The groundwater contamination is bounded vertically by a clay confining layer at a depth of approximately 55 feet below ground surface, and the hydraulic gradient was calculated to be

0.00641 ft/ft to the northwest. A creek that flows through the Installation is located 2,500 feet to the northwest of the site. Groundwater contamination exceeding applicable groundwater cleanup target levels (GCTLs) was delineated to an area of approximately a quarter acre during a sampling event conducted seven years ago, and the highest concentration of 1-methnapthalene in groundwater was 100 ug/L.

1.2 Performance Objective

The Contractor shall perform all necessary environmental investigation and remediation activities required to achieve the PO of No Further Action without institutional and engineering controls within the Performance Period (PP) of five (5) years. The Contractor shall maintain compliance with regulatory requirements until SC is achieved. This PWS, along with guidance included in attachments and enclosures include the general requirements of the project to meet the project objectives.

The Government places great value on error-free work products of the highest quality that support technically sound decisions consistent with applicable Government and regulatory requirements. Additionally, the Contractor shall ensure programmatic consistency and quality across the entire contract.

Requirements for efficient management of this contract include, but are not limited to, the achievement of the PO within the PP per Table 1 of this PWS and timely identification and solution of impediments to successful project execution. The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, tools, materials and other items necessary to perform the tasks defined in this PWS. The Contractor is solely responsible for reviewing all publicly available information and forming their independent, professional conclusions/interpretations of site conditions and requirements to achieve the PO of this contract within the PP specified.

The Government will rely on the Contractor’s expertise in recognizing potential risk that may impact achievement of the PO within the PP. The Contractor shall perform all work in accordance with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations. The Contractor shall also comply with Installation regulations. The Contractor shall continue work throughout the entire duration of the PP.

No contaminated soil or groundwater (except investigation derived wastes) is to be removed from the installation for disposal or treatment purposes. The IDW will be stored and disposed of by the Mystery AFB Environmental Office. Contractor is not responsible for storage and/or removal of IDW. The reuse plan for the site is a recreational facility, running track and military housing. This remediation contract includes restoration of the site to approximately pre-remediation grade and conditions, and all backfill will be structural soil fill compacted to at least 90% of the standard Proctor maximum dry density. Required restoration also includes six inches of topsoil and St. Augustine sod for the entire site.
