Engineers, Honolulu Engineer District (POH) to include all the Hawaiian Islands, the territories of Guam, American

Samoa and Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) as well as the Freely Associated States including the Republic of Palau, Federal States of Micronesia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Projects may include Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS), National Guard and Army properties under the Installation

Restoration Program (IRP), and other federally controlled/owned sites which have been impacted by MEC, that fall within the management and control of POH.

1.2 The exact locations of specific projects will be designated under each Task Order (TO) Performance Work

Statement (PWS).

2 OBJECTIVE AND PURPOSE.

2.1 The purpose of this Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is to execute remedial action activities as designated in a Decision Document/Record of Decision to meet a remedial action objective.

2.2 Munitions and Explosives of Concern (MEC) is a term, which distinguishes specific categories of military munitions that may pose unique explosives safety risks and includes: (A) Unexploded ordnance (UXO), as defined in 10 USC 101(e)(5); (B) Discarded military munitions (DMM), as defined in 10 USC 2710(e)(2); or (C) Munition constituents (e.g., TNT, RDX) as defined in 10 USC 2710(e)(3), present in high enough concentrations to pose an explosive hazard (10 USC 2710(e)(2)).

2.3 This acquisition includes detection and removal of MEC, sampling and analytical testing of environmental media for munitions constituents (MC), disposal and management of MEC and/or MC. Per FUDS Guidance Memo

(April 2017) advanced geophysical classification (AGC) methods must be utilized to the maximum extent practical.

Per the DoD information Quality Guidelines (February 10, 2003) the level of quality necessary for influential scientific data requires that such information be capable of being substantially reproduced. This means all geophysical mapping shall be acquired using digital methods that record geophysical measurements and their geodetic locations, unless specially approved otherwise by the Contracting Officer. Analog methods shall not be used in any areas of an MRA or MRS unless approved by the Government or identified in individual Task Order requests for proposals. The Contractor shall perform this work in compliance with all applicable laws and requirements included, but not limited to, those in Section 5 of this PWS.

3 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Contractor Methods. This is a performance based IDIQ. The performance objectives and standards are specific for each task order requirements. The technical approach and level of effort expended to achieve task order objectives and standards are up to the contractor to select and adjust as necessary through the life of the task order.
