- The purpose of this amendment is to provide the Statement of Work as referenced in the announcement. The Statement of Work will not be posted in PDF as metnioned in the synopsis, rather, the text is as follows: QUOTATION INSTRUCTIONS: The hoods are going into a trailer that is less than the traditional lab ceiling height. Measurements must be submitted with the bids so that the supporting casework can be sized accordingly. Traditional labs are grater that 8-ft and the trailer height is only 7ft 10in. Quotation must include cut sheet and statement of required under-hood cabinets for installation in trailer with interior ceiling height of 7-ft 10-inch. I. Background The UWRF is in Edison, New Jersey, housing experimental research supporting the work of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency?s (EPA) Urban Watershed Management Branch (UWMB). The UWRF includes laboratories, office space for contract personnel, a shop area, and storage. The new facility laboratory areas are in trailers. The trailers are expected to be in place by July 15, 2004. II. Approach A. General The contractor shall complete any on-site work during the normal work week (Monday through Friday excluding Federal holidays) and normal working hours (8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Local Time). The contractor shall notify the EPA project officer one work day in advance of any large in-coming equipment (tractor-trailer-sized) and inform the EPA project officer whenever work will be ongoing for more than 1 hour on any given day. The contractor shall supply all materials, labor, and professional services necessary to complete the work unless otherwise noted. The contractor may leave equipment on site during non-working hours. However, EPA assumes no responsibility for the safety or security of equipment. EPA will provide access to tap water and electricity (110 VAC) suitable for small hand tools. The contractor shall remove all debris generated by this project from the work site and ensure appropriate disposal. B. System description The contractor shall provide two 4-foot wide laboratory hoods with blowers and exhaust stacks. The hood exterior shall be painted (enamel) metal (tan) with transparent sash panels. Interior work surface shall be 1-inch thick black epoxy. Hoods shall be installed over 31-inch deep laboratory cabinets by others. Each hood shall include one pocket sink with water fixtures (cold-water spigots, and drains), flourescent light(s), GFIC-protected electrical outlets (one duplex 110 VAC 20 amp and one 220 VAC 40 amp) and vacuum stopcock fittings. Sinks shall be installed at the rear of the hoods. The sink in the right-hand hood shall be on the left-hand side of the hood. The sink in the left-hand hood shall be on the right-hand side of the hood. The controls for all elements must be external to the hood (operable from outside the hood). The provided hood shall be certified to meet EPA health and safety (H&S) requirements. System shall include all monitoring and alarm requirements that displays the fume hood face velocity as specified by H&S requirements and meet minimum fume hood exhaust, temperature and relative humidity requirements. Hoods shall be equipped with an airflow monitor that provides both a visual and audible alarm when the face velocity is less than or equal to 90 fpm. Each fume hood shall have an average face velocity of 100?10 feet per minute (fpm) with the sash 80% open. The airflow at the face of laboratory fume hoods shall be 80?10 fpm average face velocity (?10 fpm) when the sash is set at the sash height of 100% of the sash opening. The airflow through a fume hood with sash closed shall not be less than 25 cubic feet per minute per square foot of internal hood work surface even when the sash is fully closed (NFPA 45, Sect. A.6.4.6, 2000 Edition.) Each fume hood shall have releasable sash stops set at 80% sash opening. The exhaust stack height shall be 10-ft above the roof line with a minimum exhaust exit velocity of 3000 fpm.. The exhaust and supply fans shall accommodate reduced volumes during periods when the lab is not occupied (nights and weekends) by either (A) having two separate set points for supply and exhaust fans that are linked and activated by a timer or (B) having two- position valves for supply and exhaust systems. The contractor may ship assembled or assemble on site. If desired and necessary, EPA will provide temporary on-site storage to facilitate on-site assembly. III. Schedule Assembled hoods shall be delivered and installed in Edison, NJ no later than July 1, 2004.
