Opportunity: F - Abatement Services

Amendment No.: 0002 for Solicitation No.: A17PS00088 is as follows: 1. To extend the response time to Wednesday, December 7, 2016 at 12:00 p.m. Mountain time. 2. To respond to questions received. No more questions will be accepted. It lists under 1. Summary of Tech capabilities - "qualifications and related asbestos, lead based paint experience..." This seems to be a carry over from another solicitation and not directly applicable to the scope of work (e.g. decommissioning of groundwater monitoring wells). Response. Please ignore. It is my standard statement for performance. If we overdrill and grout the existing wells who will be responsible for disposal of the drill cuttings? If the contractor, should we include disposal costs in the well decommissioning cost or list under other? Response: The contractor is responsible for disposal of all drill cuttings. You may include it under decommissioning costs. Please note the wells are shallow wells no deeper than 17-20 feet. Though the site has been remediated, residual contamination may exist at the site and be brought up with the drill cuttings. This will require a laboratory analysis step to clear the waste for disposal. Is there a location where drums can be stored awaiting analytical results for disposal? Response: The cost of analyses should be included in the cost of decommissioning the wells. It is recommended the contractor identify expedited analyses of any samples to minimize delays. The drums can be stored on site in the little guard shack at the entrance. The contractor should dispose of the drums as soon as possible following receipt of the analytical data. Also with regard to waste disposal - what entity should be listed as the generator? Response: The BIA should be listed as the generator. Mr. Benjamin Keith, Shiprock Agency Safety Officer will be the individual authorized to sign on behalf of BIA. He should be contacted to sign the manifests 24 hours before shipment of waste/disposal is conducted. BIA can provide a RCRA ID number if required in the event soils cannot be recycled and must be disposed. Is there a remediation final report which can be reviewed/included as part of the solicitation documents? Something that provides exact locations and depths of each well, remediation goals achieved, etc..." Response: Attached is the 2011 and 2012 GWM Report with 2012 being final. USEPA and NNEPA issued a NFA following receipt of the 2012 report.
