About this file
This is a specification section for a federal construction contract for The Dalles Oil Accountability Measures project at The Dalles Lock and Dam in Oregon. The contract requires comprehensive installation of an oil monitoring system across multiple generator units and associated infrastructure.
The primary deliverables include magnetostrictive level sensors with vibration dampeners, pressure transducers, submersible pressure sensors, and guided-wave radar sensors for oil accountability monitoring. Work encompasses installation of these sensors in thrust bearing tubs, turbine guide bearing sumps, governor sumps, accumulator tanks, and lubrication oil storage tanks across four monitored units: main unit 10 (MU10), main unit 16 (MU16), fish unit 1 (FU01), and station service unit 1 (SS01). The contractor must provide UL-508A listed remote I/O cabinets, an Allen Bradley ControlLogix PLC, managed switches, fiber optic infrastructure, custom-fabricated stilling wells, adjustable floor supports, lateral support collars, and safety bollards. Additionally, the contract requires calibration of five government-furnished flowmeters in two stages, installation of flowmeters in the oil supply header and purification room with thermowells and RTDs, pressure testing of all piping systems, complete cleaning of four lubrication oil storage tanks, and procurement of all appurtenances including valves, piping, seismic bracing, and electrical components. All turbine oil must be tested before and after installation by an independent laboratory certified to ISO/IEC 17025 standards, with results demonstrating chemical composition, particle count, viscosity, flash point, acid number, water content, and cleanliness compliance. The contractor must submit mechanical shop drawings and product data packages for each unit at least 30 days before installation, maintain a qualified pressure vessel inspector for accumulator tank certification, and provide comprehensive as-built documentation.

1.2 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
1.2.1 Project Description
The purpose of this Contract is to provide the equipment necessary for a new oil accountability system at The Dalles Powerhouse. The system will monitor oil in components common to all the generators, plus one generator in each of the four families (types) of units.
1.2.2 Location

Prior to beginning work, submit a Hazardous Energy Control Plan in
SECTION 01 35 26.00 25 Page 15 accordance with EM 385-1-1 and CENWP-OD-SAF-385-1. Ensure that each employee is familiar with and complies with the Lockout/Tagout Safe Clearance procedures in EM 385-1-1 , CPL 02-00-147 , ER 385-1-31 , and Government-furnished Hazardous Energy Control Program Supplemental Procedures, as practiced by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, CENWP-OD-SAF-385-1. Provide HEC instruction and training for personnel that have any involvement with electrical equipment or lines;
mechanical equipment; pressure systems; and vessels and lines containing dangerous or hazardous material which can be energized, pressurized, activated, or released remotely or inadvertently. This requirement also applies to any interface of ongoing Project operations and local procedures. Coordinate all work requiring a clearance under EM 385-1-1 and Project Specific Safe Clearance Procedures with the Government at least 2448 hours in advance. Clearance requests will only be accepted Monday through Thursday, 0700 to 1600 hours. Clearance requests, including new and modifications, made outside this time period, are only allowed with approval of the COR on a case-by-case basis unless noted otherwise in these contract specifications. No work is to proceed until the proper clearances have been obtained from the Government for the work authorized and the Contractor has signed and locked onto the principal authorized clearance. Where the requirements of this specification and referenced documents vary, the most stringent requirements apply.
1.14.2 Safe Clearance Procedure System
A safe clearance system is used by Project Personnel to ensure continuity of service and safety to personnel and equipment. Any work, service, or delivery performed which requires taking Project operating equipment out of service must be done only after a formal clearance is obtained through the Project POC. Do not violate clearance. Any violation of Safe Clearance Procedures will be grounds for removal of the offender(s) from the project. The use of locks and tags is required in the Projects Safe Clearance Procedure for all clearance points that locks can be applied.
Where locks cannot be applied, apply Project Clearance Tags. The use of personal locks for individuals working under Safe Clearance is required by CPL 02-00-147 and CENWP-OD-SAF-385-1.
