PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

Professional services for analysis of surface water, groundwater, soil, sediment, and environmental samples for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Paul District (Corps), St. Paul, Minnesota.

PART 1

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

1.0 Character and Extent of Services

In performing the environmental analysis required under this contract, the Contractor shall provide all professional services necessary in receiving assignments, planning, and supervising work, checking work during progress, checking completed work, and reporting results in a timely manner.

The general procedural guide for assignment of work and performance of work under this contract is as follows:

a. A Task Order for each assignment will be issued in writing by the Contracting Officer and will include the type of sample matrix, the type of analyses and methods to be performed, the number of samples and required completion date.

b. Each proposed Task Order will be discussed by the Contractor and the Contracting Officer or his/her authorized representative as necessary to develop a mutual understanding of:

1) Type of sample matrix.

2) Type of analyses to be performed.

3) Number of samples to be analyzed.

4) Date samples are available for delivery to Contractor.

5) Completion date required by the Contracting Officer.

a) The Contractor must be capable of completing the testing and providing results within 30 calendar days from the date the samples are delivered.

c. If it becomes evident to the Contractor during performance of the work requested in a Task Order that the required completion data or any other requirement of the Task Order will not be met, the Contractor must furnish reasons for the problem and proposed remedial actions. Failure to meet established completion dates or other performance issues may result in the Government taking adverse actions, in accordance with contract clause 52.212-4.

d. Samples will be available for delivery to Contractor’s laboratory no later than the Thursday of a work week.

1) The Contractor shall deliver the required coolers, jars, labels, and Chain of Custody forms within five

(5) days from the execution of each Task Order. Deliveries should be sent to:

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Paul District Attn: James Noren 332 Minnesota Street, Suite E1500 St. Paul, MN 55101

As specified in each Task Order, the Contractor shall supply appropriate sample containers for analyses.

2) Once the samples are collected, the Corps at its own expense, will either drop off the samples at the

Contractor’s laboratory in the supplied coolers filled with ice or ice packs, or ship overnight in a manner applicable with the holding time requirements as specified in the most current editions of “Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater”, Section 1060:I, and/or “Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Wastes; U.S. EPA-SW 846.

A Quality Control Report shall be furnished to include all precision and accuracy data performed in conjunction with each individual Task Order. Each Task Order shall be performed using the industry’s highest level of quality control. The analytical results shall be supplied as an electronic deliverable, such as .pdf or in a database format such as MS Excel or equivalent for water quality work. Graphical or numerical instrument output for water quality parameters will not be required.

1.3 Release of Information

The Contractor shall not release any data, report or other material of any nature obtained or prepared under this contract without the specific written approval of the Contracting Officer.

PART 2

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

2.0 Supervision and Inspection

a. Supervision of employees performing the required work shall be the Contractor’s responsibility. This is to include all supervision necessary in planning, organizing, and completing the work required in the contract.

All costs in connection with supervision are included in the contract unit prices listed in the Schedule.

b. The Contractor shall designate an individual to act as his/her authorized representative to receive all necessary work assignments. This individual must be completely familiar with both the general and technical requirements of this contract and be able to ensure full compliance with work assignments issued by the Contracting Officer. The authorized representative will function as the contact between the Contracting Officer or his/her authorized representative and the Contractor, and as such, must be available during normal working hours.

c. The Prime Contractor laboratory shall be capable of performing the requested analyses on water and solid samples during the life of this contract.

d. Environmental laboratory services are to be provided only by laboratories compliant with the most recently published version of the DoD Quality Systems Manual (QSM) and holding a current National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (NELAP) accreditation for all appropriate fields-of-testing. As requested by the Contracting Officer, the laboratory shall submit the self-declaration forms (including supporting documentation), as well as information related to NELAP accreditation. Before testing services can be performed by the laboratory, the Contracting Officer will notify the candidate laboratory of the acceptability of the declaration and supporting documentation. Self-declaration, and provision of NELAP accreditation information is to be provided annually while supporting Corps’ contracts. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer immediately of change in status of laboratory operations that may affect on-going compliance with these requirements. The Corps may, at any time, conduct audits (including requests for pertinent data or information) that support an environmental laboratory’s self-declaration of compliance with this policy. If the Contracting Officer finds the laboratory non-compliant; alternate, compliant laboratory services shall be utilized, until such time as compliance is again demonstrated.

2.1 Laboratory Requirements

a. General. Trained and experienced personnel, adequate facilities and equipment, and selection of appropriate analytical methods are required for all Task Orders issued under this contract.

b. Facilities. The laboratory shall be of a design which allows for a clean, well-organized workspace for the analyst assigned to the Task Order. Analysis areas must be arranged to eliminate cross contamination between individual analyses and/or other possible types of contamination. The laboratory must comply with Federal OSHA regulations. The laboratory shall be available for inspection by the Contracting Officer or his/her authorized representative during normal working hours to ensure that the above requirements are maintained. A laboratory inspection shall include examination of chain of custody procedures, laboratory analytical procedures, preventative maintenance, instrument calibration, quality control/quality assurance protocol, corrective actions, and data reduction, validation, and documentation. The inspection shall include documentation of Quality Systems Manual (QSM) compliance.

c. Methods. The laboratory shall maintain state certification throughout the duration of the contract for any method used. The certification shall be from the proper state accrediting agency of at least one of the following: Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, or Illinois. Methods recommended for all required analysis are listed in the most current edition of “Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater”, and/or “Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Wastes”, EPA SW-846. The method used should be QSM compliant. Any method used that is not in these references should:

1) be fully documented;

2) be tested by other laboratories;

3) be checked for interferences likely to be present in a sample matrix;

4) have a precision and accuracy verified by more than one laboratory; and

5) have prior written approval by the Contracting Officer.

d. The Contractor may use the test methods listed in the Test Price Schedule. If the Contractor does not have the capacity to perform one of the listed test methods, they may include an alternative method for a given contaminant. If intending to use an alternative test method, the Contractor quote must include the intended substitution along with a brief comparison between the test method listed in the Test Price Schedule and that of the method quoted. The comparison data shall include detection limits and any sample restrictions (pH, for example) or sample size (larger or same than volume/weight required).

e. Sample Holding Time Requirements. Sample holding times are listed in Table 1060:I of “Standard

Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater”, current edition, and/or in specific analysis methods listed in EPA SW-846.

f. Precision and Accuracy Requirements. The highest level of quality control shall be applied for each parameter within a Task Order. All costs in connection with this effort are to be included in the contract unit prices listed in the schedule. Precision data (duplicate analysis) must be within +/- 10% (plus or minus ten percent) of the concentrations reported, except at concentrations at or near the required detection limit for the particular parameter. Accuracy data (spikes and/or unknown concentrations) must have % (percent) recoveries between 90 and 110% (ninety and one hundred ten percent). If the precision and/or accuracy data fail to meet these requirements, re-analysis is required.
