Greg Cox, CE Technician 707 431-4552 office Greg.S.Cox@usace.army.mil

CONTRACT NUMBER: TBD

PART 1: GENERAL___________________________________________

1.1 LOCATION

The job site is located at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Coyote Valley Dam / Lake Mendocino Project Headquarters, approximately 5 miles north of the city of Ukiah (1160 Lake Mendocino Drive, Ukiah, California, 95482) and 3 miles from State Highway 101. See attached plans, for a site and vicinity map.

1.2 BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

Building # 2 was originally constructed to serve as a concrete and soils testing laboratory, as well as a survey office, during the construction of Coyote Valley Dam (CVD) and appurtenances. Following completion of the dam in the late 1950’s, the building was converted into a wood shop and storage facility. The wood-framed single-story structure has a total floor area of approximately 2,850 feet. Floors are concrete slab type, ceilings are vaulted, and interior walls are generally covered with sheetrock or plywood, if not exposed to studs. The roof is covered with composition type rolled roofing overlaying plywood sheeting, purlins and insulating fiberboard. Currently, Building # 2 is used as an alternate make-shift conference area, as well as exercise and storage facility. The Project’s main building (Building 1) houses the main conference room (also serves as lunch room) which is extremely undersized. Building #2 contains women’s and men’s restrooms which are in various stages of renovation. In 2009, project staff remodeled approximately 368 feet of floor space to construct a new exercise room. Hence, this area shall not be included in new proposed work.

3.5.2 Initial Phase. This phase shall be accomplished at the beginning of a definable feature of work. The following shall be accomplished:

a. A check of work to ensure that it is in full compliance with contract requirements. Review minutes of the preparatory meeting.

b. Verify adequacy of controls to ensure full contract compliance. Verify required control inspection and testing.

c. Establish level of workmanship and verify that it meets minimum acceptable workmanship standards. Compare with required sample panels as appropriate.

d. Resolve all differences.

e. Check safety to include compliance with and upgrading of the safety plan and activity hazard analysis. Review the activity analysis with each worker.

f. The initial phase should be repeated for each new crew to work onsite, or any time acceptable specified quality standards are not being met.

3.5.3 Follow-up Phase. Daily checks shall be performed to assure control activities, including control testing, are providing continued compliance with contract requirements, until completion of the particular feature of work. The checks shall be made a matter of record in the QC documentation. Final follow-up checks shall be conducted and all deficiencies corrected prior to the start of additional features of work, which may be affected by the deficient work. The Contractor shall not build upon or conceal nonconforming work.

3.6 TESTS

3.6.1 Testing Procedure. The Contractor shall perform specified or required tests to verify that control measures are adequate to provide a product, which conforms to contract requirements. Upon request, the Contractor shall furnish to the Government duplicate samples of test specimens for possible testing by the Government.

If approved by the Contracting Officer, actual test reports may be submitted later with a reference to the test number and date taken. An information copy of tests performed by an offsite or commercial test facility will be provided directly to the Contracting Officer. Failure to submit timely test reports as stated may result in nonpayment for related work performed and disapproval of the test facility for this contract.

f. The Contractor shall provide a weekly summary of all tests taken and their results.

3.7 COMPLETION OF INSPECTION

3.7.1 Punch-Out Inspection. Near the completion of all work or any increment thereof the QC System Manager shall conduct an inspection of the work and develop a "punch list" of items which do not conform to the approved drawings and specifications.

Such a list of deficiencies shall be included in the QC documentation, and shall include the estimated date by which the deficiencies will be corrected. The QC System Manager or staff shall make a second inspection to ascertain that all deficiencies have been corrected. Once this is accomplished, the Contractor shall notify the Government that the facility is ready for the Government "Pre-Final" inspection.

3.7.2 Pre-Final Inspection. The Government will perform this inspection to verify that the work is complete and ready for use. A Government "Pre-Final Punch List" may be developed as a result of this inspection. The Contractor's QC System Manager shall ensure that all items on this list have been connected and so notify the Government so that a "Final" inspection with the customer can be scheduled. Any items noted on the "Pre-Final" inspection shall be corrected in a timely manner. These inspections and any deficiency corrections required by this paragraph will be accomplished within the time slated for completion of the entire work or any particular increment thereof if the project is divided into increments by separate completion dates.

3.7.3 Final Acceptance Inspection. The Contractor's Quality Control Inspection personnel, his superintendent or other primary management person and the contracting Officer's representative will be in attendance at this inspection as well as additional Government personnel including, but not limited to, those from the Project Office. The Contracting Officer based upon results of the Pre-Final inspection will formally schedule the final acceptance inspection. Notice will be given to the Contracting Officer at least 5 days prior to the final acceptance inspection and must include the Contractor's assurance that all specific items previously identified to the Contractor as being unacceptable, along with all remaining work performed under the contract, will be complete and acceptable by the date scheduled for the final acceptance inspection. Failure of the Contractor to have all contract work acceptably complete for this inspection will be cause for the Contracting Officer to bill the Contractor for the Government's additional inspection cost.

3.7.4 Documentation. The Contractor shall maintain current records providing factual evidence that required quality control activities and/or tests have been performed.

These records shall include the work of subcontractors and suppliers and shall be on an acceptable form that includes, as a minimum, the following information:

a. Contractor/subcontractor and their area of responsibility.
