The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein.

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 Environmental Compliance, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), Cultural Resource, Wildlife, Natural Resource, and Pollution Prevention/Sustainability related support at JBLM YTC. Specific programs supported by this action include: Air, Water, Environmental Compliance, Cultural, Pollution Prevention (P2), NEPA, Wildlife, Natural Resources, Solid Waste, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Sustainability, and Toxic Substances.

Background: JBLM YTC is a United States Army installation that primarily supports military training activities (maneuver training, testing and live fire training). The installation is located in south central Washington State, and it is bounded on the west by Interstate 82, on the south by the city of Yakima, on the north by the city of Ellensburg and Interstate 90, and on the east by the Columbia River. It comprises approximately 327,000 acres, most of which consists of shrub-steppe, making it one of the largest areas of shrub-steppe habitat remaining in Washington State. The terrain is undulating and dominated by four east-west parallel ridges, the Saddle Mountains, Manastash Ridge, Umtanum Ridge, and Yakima Ridge anticlines, which are part of the Yakima Fold Belt near the western edge of the Columbia River Plateau. Common Columbia Basin shrub-steppe plant species and communities are found on the installation. Main vegetation components consist of sagebrush, bitter brush, and bunch grasses. Military units stationed at JBLM are the primary users at JBLM YTC for maneuver and live fire training. JBLM YTC’s DPW ED, Yakima, Washington, is responsible for planning, managing, and accomplishing all environmental functions at JBLM YTC. JBLM YTC’s DPW ED accomplishes their responsibilities through a series of robust environmental programs which include: air, water, environmental compliance, cultural resource management, P2, NEPA, wildlife, natural resources, solid waste, sustainability, and toxic substances programs. Additionally, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has been assigned lead role in developing this PWS and providing contract administration and oversight to ensure the required support, services, and deliverables are provided in accordance with this contract.

Objectives: To provide Environmental Compliance, NEPA, Cultural Resource, Wildlife, Natural Resource, and P2/Sustainability related support at JBLM YTC. Specific programs supported by this action include: Air, Water, Environmental Compliance, Cultural Resources, P2, NEPA, Wildlife, Natural Resources, Solid Waste, RCRA, Sustainability, and Toxic Substances.

Activities required include direct support to collect, analyze and report data; develop and provide training and briefings; review, update, and provide comments for reports and plans and other environmental documents; assist with obtaining and complying with operational permits (e.g., monitoring, reporting, application preparation, etc.);

Scope: Professional Services. Services shall be performed by the contractor, as an independent contractor and not as an agent of the Government, providing the necessary support contained in this PWS.

The contractor shall provide qualified key personnel to support program development and program support, as well as weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual reporting requirements contained in the PWS as defined in Section 5, Specific Tasks.
