The Army Contracting Command - Rock Island is issuing this sources sought notice for Well Closure and Sealing at Rock Island Arsenal (RIA), located in Rock Island, Illinois.

This requirement is projected to use NAICS code 237110.

RIA is projecting a design/build project to remove approximately 1300 linear-ft of aggregate and then seal in its entirety (approximately 1600 linear-ft) of the disused water well. Projected details are as follows.

CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS

Abandon water well 51 per Illinois Administrative Code Title 77 Chapter I Subchapter r Part 920 section 920.120 subsections (b)(7).

Completed site shall be seeded and sloped to allow water to drain away from BLDG050 and BLDG071 without ponding.

CLEARING DEEP WELL 051

Remove fill aggregate and debris from well 51.

Dispose of aggregate and debris.

Stock pile and allow material to decant if required per proper dispose requirements.

Report findings in a condition log and provide video on DVD media (Microsoft Windows Video Player). Document and photograph (still images) findings of each casing, shoe, exposed grout, any crevices, and at a minimum ever 100ft of well depth.

Use findings to finalize design and prepare the 100% and “For Construction” design set.

WELL WATER CONDITION TESTING

This water well is near an active RCRA site with contaminated groundwater. The most recent groundwater sampling of this water well detected VOCs and metals, but were below the set remediation objectives.

Obtain three sets of representative water samples from the water well.

Occasions for water sampling:

The first set of samples is to be collected prior to construction work beginning,

The second set is to be collected the same day the downview camera survey is completed, and

The third set is be obtained the day the water well sealing operation commences.

The representative sample sets shall be laboratory tested on each occasion for:

VOCs using EPA Method 8260B,

Total metals (chromium, iron, and manganese) using EPA Method 6010B, and

Dissolved metals (chromium, iron, and manganese) using EPA Method 6010B.
