1.4 WORK COVERED BY CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

1.4.1 Project Description

The project includes the work associated with shoreline stabilization, landfill closure, and stormwater ditch restoration. The project is divided into a Base Bid scope of work and five optional bid items. The following description includes the entire scope of work, including work in the base bid and five optional bid items.

Prepare design/build construction documents and provide construction for cleanup and stabilization of the coastal faces of the closed landfills located at four (4) sections on the northwest (NW) shoreline of Thule Air Base, Greenland. The NW shoreline requires clean up, geotextile, and blasted rock coverage. The first and second sections have lengths of approximately 122 meters and 159 meters, respectively, and vary from zero

(0) to approximately 4.5 m in height. The third section is approximately 304 meters in length and varies from zero (0) to approximately 3 meters in height. The fourth section is 170 m in length and is bounded to the north by the end of Section 3 and to the south by the 2011 revetment. All sections require thorough and extensive excavation, cleanup, and removal of half-buried scrap and debris, as well as a subsequent rehabilitation.

Prepare design/build construction documents and provide construction for landfill closure work which includes a necessary measure to provide adequate landfill cover for the areas identified in the documentation provided. The work includes stabilization of the two (2) seasonal stormwater ditches, one (1) at the north end of the landfill and one (1) on the southern part of the landfill. The area should be cleared from any metal debris that could cause issues or propagate thru freeze thaw.

1.4.2 Location

The site of work is located at Thule AB, Greenland. The site of the work is on a military installation and all rules and regulations issued by the Commanding Officer covering general safety, security, and sanitary requirements, etc., must be observed by the Contractor.

1.4.3 Base Bid Scope

The base bid scope of work includes 1) Design for the entire project, including all optional bid items, and 2) Shoreline Construction for Sections 1, 2 and 3 Revetment, as follows:

1.4.3.1 Base Bid Design

a. Shoreline Sections 1, 2, 3 and 4 Revetment Design: The proposed revetment design consists of two rock layers, an armor and an underlayer, with a main slope of 1:2 (vertical: horizontal). The armor rock sizing was calculated using Van der Meer’s formula et al. (1995) method from the Rock Manual, CIRIA (2007) with the design parameters as detailed in the Basis of Design Report, Section 2.4.1.1. The armor and underlayer have a layer thickness equal to two times the nominal stone diameter. The median weight of the underlayer stone (W50) is calculated as 1/10 of the primary armor stone mass. The stability between the armor and underlayer was assessed using the guidance provided in CIRIA (2007) to determine suitability of sub-layers against stability, permeability, and segregation criteria. Where the filter rules between the underlayer and core by CIRIA (2007) cannot be

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 2 met, the installation of a geotextile must be considered. The stability of the toe rubble mound will be estimated based on methods from the Rock Manual, CIRIA (2007).

The rock sizing calculations were performed for a 100-year return period and a design water level of 1.9 m MSL which includes 0.3 m of Sea Level Rise. A design wave height of 2.1 m and peak wave period of

10.0 sec was considered for the preliminary design. The design return period for overtopping is the 100-year return period wave event and no allowable overtopping under operational conditions. The design life of the shoreline protection must be 30 years. The concept of a design life assumes that regular inspections and minor maintenance, but not major repairs or rebuilding, will take place throughout the design life, unless damage occurs from a storm event in excess of the design criteria.

b. Revetment Geotextile Design: The geotextile design must be based upon the methods presented in CIRIA (2007), with the use of supplementary standards if necessary. The required tensile strength from armor layer, underlayer and wave loading have been calculated and design parameters for the geotextile preliminary design are detailed in the Basis of Design Report, Jacobs, Section 2.4.1.5.

c. Alternative Design: If the Contractor decides on an alternative revetment crest design, overtopping rate/volumes must be considered.

The proposed revetment crest can be made wider in place of using the gravel strip behind the crest. It is up to the Contractor to adequately evaluate overtopping conditions and ensure the maximum allowable overtopping rate/volume is not exceeded. The proposed berm was designed to match the previous 2011 shoreline protection. If the Contractor decides to widen the berm for construction purposes that is acceptable, however the berm width cannot be decreased from a minimum of 4 meters.

d. Ditch restoration design (cross section): If the Contractor decides on an alternative ditch cross section design than what is shown on the conceptual design documents, storm flows from snow and ice melt must be considered. The proposed stream must be able to carry the flow from a full upstream culvert (existing 610 mm (24") at the north stream and existing 1,070 mm (42") at the south stream) with appropriate freeboard.

e. Landfill closure design: Cover design must conform to standards in US Department of Defense Environmental Final Governing Standards Greenland. Existing cover thickness varies. Final cover thickness minimums will be measured from prepared subgrade to finished grade per the design standard. Final cover material must be compatible with existing cover material and able to achieve specified compaction.

f. Prior to detail design Bathymetric and Topographic survey: Prior to detail design Contractor must conduct a site topographic and bathymetric survey of the project site to verify existing conditions and provide basis for detail design. Survey extent should include the full footprint of proposed shoreline and landfill works. Elevations shall be provided at 0.5 m intervals and cover up to the -3.0 m contour line.

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 3

1.4.3.2 Base Bid Construction

Shoreline Stabilization Sections 1, 2, and 3 Revetment Construction:

a. Revetment Stone Material: The preliminary design assumes stone material will be sourced from the North Basalt Quarry located at North Mountain. The armor and underlayer stone must be hard, close grained, free of cracks, seams or other imperfections which might adversely affect its durability when exposed to weathering and wave action of the inlet environment. All stones must be roughly angular in shape, with at least dimension of any stone no less than one-third of its greater dimension. Flat stones will not be accepted. The inclusion of objectionable quantities of dirt, sand, clay and rock fines will not be permitted. Armor and underlayer stone must be tested for gradation. A gradation test must consist of weighing every stone in a representative sample to determine the amount of each stone between the various specified weights. The weights thus obtained are accumulated and expressed as a percent by weight of the total sample lighter than the various specified stone weight.

b. Revetment Construction Tolerances: Variation in slope lines and grades from the indicated slope lines and grades must be within the tolerances specified in CIRIA 2007 (CIRIA/CUR C683 Chapter 9, Table 9.7), which is +.6m to -0.4m for the armor layer and +0.3m to -0.2m for the underlayer. The above provided tolerances are for average difference between design profiles to actual profile (i.e. mean actual profile) over 15 m length along the structure’s axis. The tolerances on two consecutive mean actual profiles must not be negative.

Notwithstanding any accumulation of positive tolerances on the underlayer, the thickness of layer must not be less than 80% of the nominal thickness when calculated using mean actual profiles. The intention is that the work must be built generally to the required elevations, slope and grade and that the outer surfaces must be even and present a neat appearance. Placed material not meeting these limits must be removed or reworked.

c. Revetment Installation Preparation: Remove and dispose of miscellaneous debris (riprap, vegetation, metal debris, etc.), within the limits of the proposed revetment as required to properly install the revetment. Contractor must take all necessary precautions to prevent premature and/or uncontrolled collapse of any portion of the upland landfill. If uncovered debris at the landfill face is within the footprint of the proposed revetment but is mostly contained within the landfill, it is up to the Contractor whether to remove the full extent of the debris or cut and remove only the portion of the debris within the proposed revetment footprint. All riprap removed from the existing shoreline may potentially be reused in the construction of the proposed revetment if the Contractor deems the stone to be in good condition and riprap is within the proposed design grading or could be broken up to achieve the required gradation. Any stone considered unsalvageable must be removed and disposed of in a disposal area.

Flat stones must be removed and disposed of in a disposal area and cannot be reused for the proposed revetment.

Note: disposal locations of debris may vary and are dependent on debris classification. Hazardous waste will trigger appropriate disposal requirements, scrap metal must be cut into 1-meter (m) by 1-m pieces and taken to the DLA yard located on-base for disposal and sorted accordingly. All other debris is to be transported to active

SECTION 01 11 00 Page 4 base landfill for disposal.

d. Check Surveys and Final As-Builts: Surveys conducted by the Contractor must be performed after the sub grade is prepared prior to laying of any rock material, after the underlayer has been placed, and after the armor stone has been placed to determine that the materials are acceptably placed in the work. Make checks as the work progresses to verify lines, grades and thicknesses established for completed work.

As-built and check survey plan at 0.5 m elevation intervals of all components of the revetment, from back toe, crest, slope, and toe crest, and toe for underlayer and armor layer. The same scale for the as-built and check survey cross sections must be used as in the Contract Drawings. The cross-section profile must be digitally captured. The final as-built cross sections and the theoretical design templates must be superimposed over the original cross sections. Cross sections must be taken on 5 m intervals. All stations, ranges, and elevation points taken from field books must be clearly lettered as the profiles. A final survey covering all aspects of work including optional scope items constructed will be provided at 0.5 m elevations.

All digital survey files will be provided.

e. Revetment Geotextile Placement: Areas on which geotextile is to be placed must be graded and/or dressed to conform to the proposed design cross sections. Where such areas are below the allowable minus tolerance limit, they must be brought to grade by fill stone and compacted to a density equal to the adjacent in place material. For elevations above MSL and the areas below the allowable design minus tolerance limit will be brought to grade with structural backfill.

Subaqueous areas on which geotextile and stone/backfill are to be placed, shall be graded and/or dressed to conform to design cross sections. Installation of geotextile must be performed as directed by the product manufacturer.

f. Underlayer and Armor layer Placement: Underlayer Stone must be placed only after the base of the relocated slope is prepared and geotextile placement has been approved. The underlayer stone must be spread uniformly on the prepared base in a satisfactory manner to the indicated lines starting from the bottom of the area to be covered and continue up slope. Armor Stone must be placed only after the upper underlayer stone has been approved to be within design tolerances.

Armor stone shall be placed on the upper underlayer stone in such a manner as to produce a well-graded mass of stone with minimum voids.

g. Tugboat Launch Access: The existing tugboat launch and access road located in Section 3 must remain operational at all times. The Contractor must design the access route of the existing tugboat launch through the proposed revetment. At a minimum, a width of 30 m is required for the tugboat access road.

h. Access Road and Turnaround: The Contractor must maintain the existing access road and turnaround adjacent to the northern ditch.

i. Contractor to provide an O&M plan prior to construction completion.

O&M plan to outline revetment maintenance activities required, such as inspections after storm events, periodic inspections and maintenance requirements, and the methods needed to repair the revetment if inspection warrants repairs.
