******************************Specific Requirements*******************

For an offer to be considered for award, the contractor must own, possess, or otherwise control a bona fide place of business from which mobilization occurs within 125 miles of Defense Supply Center Richmond. A bona fide place of business refers to a location where the offeror regularly maintains an office with at least one full-time employee. The offeror must include the address of this location within the offer submitted.

OBJECTIVES

The objective of this project is to construct the Dry Swale 3 stormwater management facility within the Elk Pasture area on the Defense Supply Center Richmond (DSCR) installation. This work will be executed in accordance with the attached 100% Site Plans dated 09/03/2021. The project aims to provide sediment and nutrient removal for stormwater runoff to ensure compliance with the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) watershed implementation plans. Components to include excavation, grading, installation of underdrain systems, and geotextile will be completed by the DSCR Maintenance group. The concrete wall, a temporary silt fence, and new chain link fence to protect Dy Swale 3 from the elk are to be constructed by the contractor.

BACKGROUND

DSCR is implementing a comprehensive stormwater management program to protect the local watershed and comply with environmental mandates. The Elk Pasture area, a 26-acre preserve, has been identified for the installation of five dry swales to treat stormwater runoff before it enters Kingsland Creek, which ultimately drains to the Chesapeake Bay. This Statement of Work focuses exclusively on the construction of Dry Swale 3. The existing site consists primarily of grass and trees with variable topography. The construction of this engineered dry swale is essential for meeting sediment and nutrient removal goals established in the Phase II Watershed Implementation Plan.

SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS

The contractor shall provide all labor, materials, and equipment to complete the construction of Dry Swale 3 listed below as detailed in the attached project plans (2021-09-03 Elk Pasture - 100% Site Plans). The work shall only include the scope for the Dry Swale 3 items. Specific requirements include:

Erosion and Sediment Control:

-Install silt fence (SF) along the perimeter of the Dry Swale 3 work area as shown on sheet CD102 and in accordance with the detail on sheet C-501 coordinate with FRIE Project manager for exact location of silt fence as the project is only for Dry Swale 3, silt fence material to be provided by DSCR Installation.

-Implement all erosion and sediment control measures for Dry Swale 3 detailed in the attached drawings.

-Protect all existing storm drain inlets with inlet protection (IP) as specified.

Dry Swale 3 Construction:

-Construct the concrete weir wall as detailed on sheets CS102, C-302, and C-503. The wall
shall be 12" thick and include all specified concrete and rebar. Wall can be either cast in
place or precast.

-Install the underdrain system, only to include the section under the concrete wall, 6” PVC
underdrain pipe to be provided by DSCR

-Install a new chain link fence around the Dry Swale 3 site. (Note: The type, height, and specific location of the new fence are not detailed in the provided project plans. The contractor shall propose a fence that matches DSCR standards for the existing elk fence, assumed to be an 8-foot chain-link fence (verify in field) to match existing site fencing, for approval by the FRIE Project Manager.

Security Considerations:

-Coordinate access control through FRIE project manager with DSCR Police during construction to maintain site security.

CONTRACTOR QUALIFICATIONS

All contractors submitting proposals must demonstrate a minimum of five (5) years of relevant experience in projects of similar size and scope. They should demonstrate expertise in the construction of stormwater management facilities, including earthwork, grading, installation of underground utilities and underdrain systems, and reinforced concrete construction.

***************ADDITIONAL INFORMATION************************

A site visit will be held 04/02/2026 @ 10:00.  See p.47 of SOW for DSCR map for location of the site visit meeting location and parking location.  Parking/Meeting location is marked with a red dot toward the bottom of the map found of p.47 of the SOW.

In order to attend the site visit interested parties MUST follow the instructions below no less than 5 business days prior to the site visit.  This is to allow time for vetting by base security.  Plan on arriving at DSCR an hour prior to the site visit time, as the processing time through the visitor center fluctuates.  Follow the link below to register through DBIDS, and a QR code should be provided for each visitor.  Visitors(site visit attendees) then MUST email QR codes to the Project Manager, Rob Miller<robert.c.miller@dla.mil> (Work Cell: (804) 239-6891).  The QR code MUST be emailed to the project manager as soon as possible due to the lengthy vetting process of approximately 5 business days. The project manager will also serve as the sponsor for site visit attendees.  

A new system was implemented on 3 January 2023 to screen visitors and contractors for installation access at DSCR.The new system is designed to increase efficiencies, enhance the protection of personal information during the vetting process and eliminate the use of hard copy DLA Form 1815s.  The new screening system will require visitors and contractors to pre-enroll in DBIDS (Defense Biometric Identification System). To begin the process, visitors and contractors will complete registration through the pre-enrollment website: 

https://dbids-global-enroll.dmdc.mil.

Upon entry of their information, visiting personnel will be provided an electronic form to download, which will have an individualized barcode and alpha numeric code. The codes need to be sent to the visiting person’s sponsor. Once in receipt of the barcode, the sponsor will email Security and Emergency Services and provide the barcode and sponsorship information. Once the visitor/contractor is vetted and approved for installation access, Security & Emergency Services will notify the sponsor that the visitor/contractor can go to the DSCR Visitor Center to obtain his/her pass. At the Visitor Center, the visitor provides the barcode and code provided earlier in the process and completes the credentialing process.
