- Description
- The Olympic National Forest, Pacific Northwest Region, Forest Service, Olympia, Washington, intends to acquire operation & maintenance (O&M) of a Government-Owned sewage treatment facility at Quinault, Washington. It is the intent of this contract to obtain services necessary for: the operation and maintenance (O&M) of the Quinault Wastewater Sewage System, which consists of: the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP); two primary influent pumping stations; four secondary influent grinder pump stations; the associated influent collection piping; and five drain fields including the distribution lines, located along South Shore Road of Lake Quinault. O&M includes: (1) normal maintenance tasks, periodic major maintenance tasks, and coordination of disposal of sludge from the plant; (2) emergency repair and callback services on the systems listed above; and (3) testing & monitoring including: sampling, testing, and reporting. Services will be performed, as needed, seven (7) days per week for the contract period. Flow to the WWTP fluctuates significantly both diurnally and seasonally. Seasonally, the flow to the plant will fluctuate from 5,000 gallons per day (gpd), or less during the winter months, to 60,000 gpd on peak summer days. Usage comes from the Quinault Lodge, two Forest Service campgrounds and a trailhead parking area, several intermittently used homes on the system, and visitors to the Quinault Ranger Station. Use varies significantly throughout the year. The plant operator is responsible for plant adjustments to maintain efficient operation of the plant. Automatic and manual monitoring assists in maintaining efficient plant operation. Critical systems within the plant have been duplexed for redundancy to allow repairs to be made without shutting down the plant. In addition, the controls have been designed to allow human control of critical systems in the event of a Programmable Logic Computer (PLC) failure. The sewage plant and primary pump station No. 1 have backup generators and automatic transfer switches to maintain power during outages. Other pump stations will accept manually connected generators. The wastewater treatment plant is a Membrane Bio-Reactor (MBR) facility that utilizes a membrane filtration package manufactured by Zenon Corporation. The designed flow rates are: 24,000 gpd average annual flow; 40,000 maximum monthly flow; 80,000 gpd peak day flow; and 360,000 gpd peak instantaneous flow. This plant is operated under a Waste Discharge Permit issued by the Washington State Department of Ecology (WA DOE) (Permit No. ST6091). The permit mandates effluent standards. The permit identifies the plant type as a Membrane Bio-Reactor. The responsible operator in charge of day-to-day operations shall be a Class II operator. An operator certified as Class I shall be in charge during all regularly scheduled shifts. The government may proceed to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) Solicitation. This solicitation will result in an Indefinite Quantity, Indefinite Delivery (IDIQ) contract for one year, with two (2) one-year options. The contract performance period is from October 01, 2007, to September 30, 2008. The government estimated value is between $100,000.00 and $150,000.00 per year. The proposed contract-type is firm-fixed price. For additional information contact Mr. Miley Sutherland, Contract Specialist, at 360-956-2471.
