About this file

This is a Specification document for the John Day Fish Pump Rehabilitation project, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers construction contract. The project involves the rehabilitation of fish pump units at John Day Dam, with work divided into multiple divisions covering general requirements, metals fabrication, finishes, and waterway/marine construction.

The contract encompasses rehabilitation of fish pump units with three unit outage windows: Unit 2 (November 1, 2026 to November 30, 2027), Unit 1 (December 1, 2027 to November 30, 2028, optional), and Unit 3 (December 1, 2028 to January 15, 2030, optional). Key contractor requirements include: pre-construction conference attendance by key personnel; weekly coordination meetings with the Government; 14-day advance notification before equipment outages; provision of pagers compatible with the Project's communication system (Apollopages Gold AL-A25 at 173.4875 mhz); replacement of an existing hoist at Elevation 168.5 with a two-ton capacity 120V hoist as one of the first site activities; and strict adherence to comprehensive safety protocols per EM 385-1-1 (2024). The contractor must submit detailed submittals including access agreements, temporary electrical wiring plans, equipment methods, accident prevention plans, fall protection plans, training plans, hazardous energy control plans, activity hazard analyses, and arc flash hazard programs. All work requires compliance with OSHA regulations, welding must meet AWS standards, and nondestructive testing of 50 percent of welds is mandatory. The contractor is responsible for temporary facilities, daily cleanup, restoration of roads and existing facilities, and salvage of the removed gearbox.

All employees must be capable of demonstrating adequate knowledge of tools, supplies, equipment, and techniques necessary to competently perform the work. All personnel must be fully qualified in their respective fields to render the services necessary. The Government may require the Contractor to discontinue using any employee in the performance of the work specified in this Contract if the Government determines the performance to be unsatisfactory. Contractor employees will not be permitted to bring guests, family members, or non-employees to the job site at any time.

1.11 PAGERS

All Contractor employees who perform work on-site at John Day Dam must wear a pager that is fully compatible with the Project's message/transmitting and programming system (Apollopagers Gold AL-A25 ALPHA NUMERIC PAGER Frequency 173.4875 mhz).
