6 Detailed Description of Work

6.1 Detailed Description of Work – Base Bid Item(s)

6.1.1 Base Bid Item 1

Contractor to mobilize to the site and demobilize upon completion of all awarded base and option items.

6.1.2 Base Bid Item 2

Work for Service Gates in Conduits 7-9 shall include:

(1) Positioning and securing sluice gates to accommodate all work and maintaining the work area.

(a) Lower the emergency (upstream) gate and secure in position

(b) Raise the service (downstream) gate and secure in position

(c) Any dewatering and/or water control necessary to allow work in the dry and to provide suitable conditions per the repair material manufacturer’s recommendations.

(2) Clean and prepare the bottom sealing surface of sluice gates.

(a) Prepare the steel bottom surface of the gate in order to allow for a sufficient thickness, per manufacturer’s recommendations, of the repair material to be applied. Note that there are brass “shoes” at the edges of the gate that are not to be surfaced and can be used to establish a profile for the finished surface once the repair is complete.

(b) Roughen the bottom of the gate surface and an area upwards from the bottom on both the upstream and downstream sides in order to establish a surface profile that will insure proper adhesion of the repair material to the gate. This area will extend a minimum of 10 inches upwards from the bottom on the downstream side and 20 inches upwards from the bottom on the upstream side, but can extend further in order to provide sufficient bonding of the repair material to the gate.

(3) Rehabilitate babbitt gate sill on sluice gate seat.

(a) Smooth out any damaged areas by scraping or localized heating and puddling of the babbitt material.

Damaged areas are defined as anything showing physical deformation, such as any debris getting caught between the gate and sill causing impact damage.

(b) Special precautionary measures shall be taken for work on babbitt metal. These measures are as indicated in Section 7.5. The babbitt material is a Royal Babbitt #8 specification, a lead alloy. The government will furnish ingots of the material to the contractor when necessary.

(4) Perform surface preparation, apply material and lower service gate in order to allow the material to mold and match the babbitt sill surface.

(a) Clean the surface of the gate that is to have the repair material applied to the material manufacturer’s requirements. (e.g. SSPC SP-10) Power tool cleaning, abrasive blasting, etc may be used. The cleaned surface shall be wiped down with a cleaner and the repair material applied.

NOTE: If steel grit is used as the blast media, the expended blast media can be allowed to wash downstream. If other blast media is used, prior approval shall be obtained from the Contracting Officer.

NOTE: Insure that the cleaner or any other environmentally hazardous materials do not enter the water column of the river.

(b) The existing gate sealing surface is approximately 2 inches wide. The sill in way of the gate shall be cleaned and a release agent applied in order to prevent bonding of the repair material to the sill.

(c) The gate shall then be lowered in order for the brass “shoes” to make contact with the sill. The gate will then remain in the down position while the repair material cures.

(5) Once the repair material has fully cured and the repair work is complete, inspect for proper seal along bottom of the gate and proper adhesion of the repair material to the gate.

6.2 Detailed Description of Work – Optional Bid Item(s)

6.2.1 Optional Bid Item 3

Work for Service Gates in Conduits 1-6 shall include the same work as indicated above for gates 7-9.

7 Project Information

7.1 Basis for Award

The government shall award the contract to the offeror who provides the lowest priced technically acceptable offer.

The evaluated price shall include the base work plus all option(s). In order to be considered technically acceptable, the contractor/subcontractor shall:

• Have a minimum of five (5) years experience on projects of similar nature, specifically dealing with metal work using Belzona or equal repair materials as well as work with pumps or other large machinery. The contractor shall supply the names, locations, and client contact information for two (2) projects of similar size and scope that have been accomplished within the previous five (5) years as part of the bid submittals.

• Points of contact provided may be selectively contacted and their comments will affect the evaluations of proposals.

• A brief statement (less than 100 words) how each project illustrates your performance capabilities.

• Manufacturer’s cut sheets or similar for the products to be used

• This information can be transmitted electronically or in hard copy to the USACE Contracting Officer.

7.1.1 Award Period for Options

The government reserves the right to award any and/or all optional bid items at any time starting from the award of the base bid items to fifteen (15) days after completion of the first repair. Options may be awarded using multiple awards, e.g. an option for 2 additional gates may be awarded with the base bid award, 2 more may be awarded prior to the start of on-site construction and 2 more may be awarded after the start of on-site construction.

7.2 Period of Performance

The contractor shall be required to commence work under this contract within ten (10) calendar days after the date of receipt by the contractor of the Notice to Proceed, to prosecute said work diligently, and to complete the base bid and option work in accordance with the milestone schedule below. The time stated for completion shall include final clean-up of the premises.

Maximum Calendar Days After Receipt of Notice to Proceed (or Milestone Start/Completion Date) Commence Work (Submittals, Administration, etc.) 10

Pre-Construction Submittal Completion 30 April 2017

Commence Actual On-Site Operations 15 May 2017

Complete Base and Awarded Options 30 September 2017

The Notice to Proceed will be issued on or about 30 September 2016. Work may not begin until government approval of all submittals required in Section 20.2 of this Statement of Work.

The time period associated with the completion of the base bid work includes:

1. An optional no-work period of 150 days, from 1 December 2016 through 30 April 2017, where the Contractor may choose to work but is not required to do so. If the Contractor chooses to work, any adverse weather days occurring during the optional no-work period shall not be included in the total number of adverse weather days for the purpose of obtaining an extension.

For any and/or all optional bid items awarded within one hundred and fifty (150) days following the notice to proceed, no additional days will be given to complete said bid items since this work is covered in the base bid period of performance. For optional items awarded after the 150 day period, the period of performance will be extended by a mutually agreed period. In the event the contractor is unable to meet the project completion date, requests for extensions must be made in writing. The request must explain, in detail, why the original project completion date will not be met. The request shall be sent to the DCO along with an informational copy to the Project Manager (PM). The request shall be made as soon as possible, but not later than ten (10) days prior to the original completion date. This request shall not negate penalties for liquidated damages unless an extension is granted by the DCO in writing.

7.3 Pre-Construction Meeting

Following the award of the contract and review and acceptance of the contractor’s pre-construction submittals, the prime contractor must attend a mandatory pre-work conference. The meeting shall be scheduled by the government, and conducted on-site, at the Mount Morris Dam, at a time and date to be announced following the award of the contract.

7.4 Work Schedule

All scheduled work is to be performed Monday through Friday 0830-1700 hours, excluding federal holidays. If the contractor desires to work beyond the previously stated hours and days, written permission to do so shall be obtained from the government. Schedule changes shall be requested a minimum of 48 hours in advance, unless there is an emergency situation.

7.5 Special Job Requirements

A Certified Industrial Hygienist is required in accordance with Federal regulations and the Corps Safety Manual (EM 385-1-1) to provide initial monitoring and evaluation of the confined space work conditions and babbitt resurfacing process. This will include a respiratory protection plan and selection of respiratory devices for any melting of the babbitt material. Additional monitoring and/or changes in the respiratory program will be performed any time a major change to the work process occurs.

Sealing water out and handling any leakage through the emergency gates shall be the Contractor’s responsibility, see Section 7.6 for information regarding water control.

Providing adequate ventilation and conforming to any applicable confined space requirements shall also be the responsibility of the Contractor. There is a 12” vent shaft that can be used and is located inside the conduit and outlets approximately 150 feet up to Level 3 of the dam.

No more than three (3) gates can be out of service at one time.

The government will provide 120V outlets as well as NEMA 14-30R 220V outlets at each gate bay.

7.6 Water Management During Construction

The emergency gate upstream of service gate will be closed to prevent water from entering the conduit during construction although some leakage is expected and the contractor should account for this. Under normal dam operating conditions, the tailwater elevation ranges between Elevation 581 and 583 (NGVD 29). In order to facilitate ease of construction, dam operators will be able to maintain the tailwater elevation at approximately no higher than

585.0 (NGVD 29) during the periods of April to December except during flood conditions as defined below. For reference the service gate sill elevation is 580.25 (NGVD 29) therefore the contractor will need to prevent the tailwater from entering the work area while working in the conduit. The slope of the conduit is 1 on 10.

Water releases through the dam will impact the Contractor’s operations. During heavy storm events, the number of gates open will, either be reduced, or completely closed to prevent additional damaging flows downstream. After the event has passed, releases will be made based on downstream conditions and channel capacity, to drain the reservoir.

Normal releases will maintain a tailwater elevation no higher than approximately 585.0 (NGVD 29). In very rare instances, releases may result in tailwater levels above 585.0 (NGVD 29) which may last from several days to several weeks. Every effort will be made to give the Contractor a 24-hour notification of gate changes. The Contractor shall constantly monitor weather conditions and forecasts and be prepared for potential emergency conditions. The Contractor shall constantly be prepared to secure and protect current working areas and personnel from flood releases.

The Contractor’s on-site superintendent will be notified of gate changes by the Government. Voice mail notification will be made when Government personnel are unable to contact the superintendent in person. The Government will make a concerted effort to completely avoid using conduits in which contracted work is occurring. However, should river flow, river basin conditions, and existing operating procedures necessitate, all nine conduits could be used to make releases from the reservoir. The Contractor is advised that rains far upstream from Mount Morris Dam may impact construction operations even though no rain in the immediate vicinity has fallen.

Mount Morris Dam reservoir data is available upon request. Any conclusions drawn by the Contractor from any of this data are done so at the Contractor’s risk. The point of contact for this information is Keith Koralewski at (716) 879-4358.

*NOTE: Only government personnel will operate the emergency and service gates and the contractor personnel will lock and tag out emergency gates in the conduits that are being worked in. Each person in the conduit shall have a lock on the system.

7.7 Material/Equipment Information

Contractor shall provide all labor, tools, ladders, scaffolding, equipment, supplies and materials needed to complete the work described herein, unless otherwise noted herein that any of these items will be provided by the government.

7.8 Dimension/Quantity Verification

Contractor shall independently measure and verify all dimensions and quantities given herein prior to ordering materials and supplies for the project. This information shall be provided to the government QA person as part of the pre-work submittals.

7.9 Material Storage

If temporary storage of project material is requested, the contractor shall make a written request to the government’s QA person and receive written approval from the government. If material is found to be hazardous, flammable, combustible, etc, the contractor will be required to provide the appropriate hazardous material storage locker. Storage locations will be discussed at the pre-bid site visit and during the pre-con meeting. See Section 18 of this SOW for further information.

7.10 Site Cleanup

All excess, waste, and removed material related to this project shall become the contractor’s property and shall be promptly removed from the site and disposed of or reused/recycled in accordance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations. Documentation describing disposal of material shall be furnished to the government as part of the project closeout files. The contractor shall not dispose of any project generated waste in government receptacles or on government grounds.
