- Description
- RECOVERY - TAS::12 1142::TAS THIS NOTICE IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS ONLY AVAILABLE TO THE CONTRACTOR UNDER CONTRACT NO. AG-3A75-C-09-0019. RECOVERY - The USDA, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) awarded Task Order No. AG-7482-D-10-0014 to HDR, Inc. under Contract No. AG-3A75-C-09-0019. The Contractor shall furnish the personnel, equipment, labor, materials, transportation, and facilities required to perform the services described herein: I. Purpose The Contractor shall perform an independent review as required by the policy of the USDA—Natural Resources Conservation Service as stated in the National Engineering Manual (NEM) Part 501.05(a), Part 520.26 and Part 511.05(b). The NEM defines independent review as an examination and evaluation of procedures used and decisions made during the design of a dam by peers from outside NRCS or from an organizational unit other than the one responsible for the design. The NEM requires an independent review of designs for engineering job class VII and other projects, as determined, based on their complexity and potential hazard The Contractor’s capability must be equal to that needed to independently perform the design. Independent reviews are made to verify that design and construction procedures and decisions reflect safety considerations as well as economy. Dam safety considerations are directly related to the potential for loss of life, damage to valuable property, or disruption of transportation and utility facilities if the dam fails. The classification of dams is determined by the potential for such losses and damage (see NEM 520.2l). The Contractor shall determine whether the methods and extent of investigation and analyses are appropriate and reasonable, the assumptions resulting from this work are justified and reasonable based on the investigation and analysis performed, and site conditions are adequately characterized to provide the geotechnical and geological basis for modification design. The Contractor shall verify that the work performed: •Is adequate to provide geological and geotechnical data to address all potential dam safety deficiencies •Is adequate to provide geological and geotechnical data for final design of the conceptual designs included in the Conceptual Planning Reports on the individual structures •Addresses unique site conditions •Is consistent with industry practice for similar structures •Generally complies with, or has appropriate variances to, the more stringent of NRCS or applicable state policy and criteria.
