C.1 General Requirements: This is a non-personal services District Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) acquisition utilizing performance-based task orders to provide munitions and environmental response services. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the prime Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

C.1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform munitions and environmental response services as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS) except for those items specified as Government furnished property and services. Individual task orders will contain specific performance based requirements. The Contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract and project specific task orders.

The Multiple Award Military Munitions Services III (MAMMS III) contracts awarded will be contracts under a MATOC for Munitions and Explosives of Concern (MEC) and Munitions Constituents (MC) investigations, and remediation services in support of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Baltimore District and its customers located primarily in the USACE North Atlantic Division (NAD) mission Area of Responsibility (AOR) within the Continental United States (CONUS), Alaska, Hawaii, and U.S. territories. The awarded contracts will provide a wide range of military munitions and environmental response services at various current and formerly used defense sites, property adjoining currently and formerly used defense sites, and other federally controlled/owned sites. The Contractor shall safely locate, identify, recover, evaluate, manage and make final disposition of MEC, other munitions, MC and Hazardous Toxic Radioactive Waste (HTRW).

The Contractor shall primarily perform Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP) services to protect human health and the environment from hazards associated military munitions and contaminants of potential concern (COPCs). HTRW services incidental to MMRP shall also be performed, if required, to protect human health and the environment from hazards associated with military munitions and COPCs. The terms “Munitions or Chemical Warfare Material (CWM) or MC response/operations/activities,” and “Munitions Response Sites (MRSs)” generally apply to work performed under the MMRP. For the purpose of this contract, the term “HTRW response” represents any and all remediation of hazardous substances required under the DoD’s Installation Restoration Program (IRP) and FUDS HTRW projects.

C.1.2 Background: The MAMMS III is intended to provide the described services to support the Baltimore District, Environmental & Munitions Design Center (EMDC) mission areas with respect to military munitions and maximize performance outcomes.

C.1.3 Objectives: The objective of this MATOC is for Contractors to perform Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP) and HTRW responses involving conventional munitions, Chemical Warfare Material (CWM), and contaminants of potential concern (COPCs), as necessary, to permit lands and waters to be safely and efficiently used for their intended purpose.

C.1.4 Scope: Services acquired under the MAMMS III will support munitions and environmental services for various military customers, as well as support for environmental related regulatory programs, such as, 1) Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP), which includes as a subset of the Military Munitions Response (MMRP) and Installation Restoration Programs (IRP). USACE executes projects under the MMRP category for the Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS) Program, and as requested for the Active Army, Air Force, National Guard Bureau, and Base Realignment and Closure Environmental (BRAC-E) Programs; 2) Operational Range Support, including: range clearances and range assessments; and 3) Construction Support for Range and Training Land Program (RTLP), BRAC and other military construction, IRP, and Civil Works projects (e.g., dredging and beach replenishment projects).

Task orders issued under the MAMMS III will provide services in support of compliance with Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP); the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA); the Clean Air Act (CAA); the Clean Water Act (CWA); Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA); National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP); Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA); Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA); National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES); National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA); Archaeological Resources Protection Act (ARPA) and other related Federal Programs and legislation. Services may include:

Engineering Services Investigation and Field Activities Operations, Maintenance, Optimization Engineering Support and Remedial Design Remedial/Response Actions and Removals

The Contractor shall accomplish the planning, management, and execution of MMRP and HTRW environmental services in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and regulatory agency guidance within the performance standards as established by project specific task orders.

C.1.5 Period of Performance: The ordering period for the MAMMS III is five years from the date of contract award and may be extended for up to 2 years by exercise of options . Task orders will be issued within the ordering period established on the contract. Task order periods of performance may extend beyond the end of the ordering period and will be defined in each task order.

C.1.6 General Information

C.1.6.1 Quality Control: Quality Control (QC) shall be provided by the Contractor whenever sampling or analysis for chemical constituents is required in order to achieve milestones. Quality control for traditional soils or geotechnical testing shall also be included.

QC for DGM and AGC data are developed using the MR-QAPP toolkit. QC processes are included in the UFP- QAPP, see Section C.2.3.1.

Performance Standards for Laboratory Quality Systems. Laboratories providing services to the Department of Defense must possess any required state certification and be accredited for the Department of Defense (DoD) Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) by a DoD approved Accrediting Body (AB), which is ISO/IEC 17011:2004 compliant. As an element of the DoD ELAP, all laboratories must demonstrate the ability to generate acceptable results from the analysis of proficiency-testing (PT) sample(s), subject to availability, using each applicable method in the specified matrix. DoD ELAP accreditation establishes that laboratories have an established and documented laboratory quality system that conforms to ISO/IEC 17025 as implemented by the DoD Quality Systems Manual (QSM) for Environmental Laboratories (latest version).

Proof of current DoD ELAP accreditation for the applicable field of testing is required prior to acceptance of any samples for the project.

An environmental laboratory either anticipating, or engaged in support, of USACE, Baltimore contracts shall notify the prime Contractor and Contracting Officer Representative (COR) immediately of change in status of laboratory operations that may affect ongoing compliance with these requirements. The COR may, at any time, conduct audits (including requests for pertinent data or information) that support an environmental laboratory's accreditation. If the COR finds the laboratory non-compliant, alternate compliant laboratory services will be utilized, until such time as compliance is again demonstrated.

The Contractor may establish an on-site testing laboratory at the project site if determined necessary by the Contractor. In the case of a mobile laboratory, this may include analysis of matrix and specific performance audit samples and a possible lab inspection prior to start-up.

Following contract award and during project implementation, the Contractor shall develop and submit documentation of project-specific Data Quality Objectives (DQOs), quality assurance (QA), and QC activities prepared in accordance with the Uniform Federal Policy for Quality Assurance Project Plans (UFP-QAPP). Use of the Optimized UFP-QAPP Worksheets is preferred and will be prepared as requested per task order. The Government will review and return the UFP-QAPP with comments, indicating acceptance or rejection. If necessary, the Contractor shall revise the documentation to address all comments and shall submit the revised documentation to the Government for acceptance. Before performing environmental testing for USACE Baltimore District, the laboratory shall have access to the approved QAPP. In addition, the Contractor shall develop and submit Daily QC Summary Reports to summarize the quality control details of the contract project. The problems and successes of the work done to control the quality of the chemical measuring activities and other chemically related cleanup activities shall be included in the summary reports.

A typical QA/QC process may involve the Contractor conducting a Quality Management Audit on each phase of a project. The Contractor may randomly select and audit a project site undergoing each phase of work. Examples include:

• Project Planning

• Field Work

• Laboratory Analysis

• Data Analysis

• Report Preparation

Auditing each phase of work for a project constitutes a Quality Management Audit. The audit should evaluate compliance with the Performance Work Statement (PWS) the UFP-QAPP, proper implementation of QC procedures, and proper documentation of QC inspections/findings. Results of each phase of the audit should be captured in a format to document deficiencies and subsequent corrective actions. The Contractor may compile the audit results from all phases of work into a QA Management Assessment Report.

For a list of current DoD ELAP-accredited labs, access the following web page:

https://www.denix.osd.mil/edqw/accreditation/accreditedlabs/. The laboratory used shall have experience handling media potentially contaminated with munitions constituents and shall be identified early in the project planning (at the proposal stage unless relief is given from this requirement in the task order).

Any laboratory performing chemical analysis must provide its DoD ELAP Accreditation Certificate and supporting documentation to the applicable Military Munitions Design Center (MMDC) in order to be approved by that MMDC. The determination of qualifications of the laboratory shall be at the discretion of the MMDC Project Chemist. If the laboratory fails to meet project-specific requirements at any time, the Contracting Officer (KO) or COR may require the Contractor to stop using this laboratory and obtain analytical services from another qualified laboratory that can meet project-specific requirements. The contract laboratory may not subcontract analytical services to another laboratory without the approval of the KO. The subcontracted laboratory must meet all requirements for the contract laboratory.

If there are any differences between this PWS and the site-specific task order, the Contractor shall implement the site-specific instructions.

C.1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The performance evaluation of the Contractor shall be based on performance metrics, which include quality, schedule, cost control, business relations, management of personnel, and safety. A Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) will be generated by the Government to monitor Contractor performance to ensure conformance with contract requirements for each task order. The QASP sets forth procedures and guidelines that the Government will use in evaluating the contractor’s performance in accordance with the performance standards established for the task order.

The QASP is intended to accomplish the following, at least on a basic level: (a) Define the roles and responsibilities of participating Government officials; (b) Define the types of work to be performed with required end results; (c) Document the evaluation methods that will be employed by the Government in assessing the Contractor’s performance; (d) Provide the Surveillance Activity Checklists and Corrective Action Request (CAR) forms that will be used by the Government in documenting and evaluating the Contractor’s performance; (e) Describe the process of performance documentation; and (f) Outline quality assurance procedures to be employed by the Government during performance of the task order to confirm that work is conducted according to accepted standards.
