- Description
- The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Olympic National Forest has a requirement for an investigation and assessment of the groundwater and monitoring well system at the Quinault Waste Water Treatment Plant (QWWTP), Lake Quinault, Washington. The investigation and assessment will be documented in a hydrogeological report which meets the requirements of the Washington State Department of Ecology (DOE) for State Waste Discharge Permits and must be acceptable to DOE and the Washington State Department of Health. The intent of the Forest Service is to procure the services of an engineering firm licensed in the state of Washington to perform the investigation, assessment, and write the hydrogeological report. The investigation will use existing information provided by the Forest Service as well as additional site investigation and data collection as needed to complete this task. Well logs for 7 Resource Protection Wells and static water level measurements from at least 2009 to 2011 are available. A preliminary site characterization was conducted in 1998 and is documented in the report "Quinault Ranger Station Wastewater Treatment Plant Hydrogeologic Investigation Quinault Washington" by HWA Geosciences Inc. The Hydrogeologic study needs to be updated and the resulting report must meet all requirements of the current site operating permit, specifically Sections S9 and S2.B. In addition to the report, the monitoring well data tables shall be brought up to date and summarized. This will include the need to accurately establish location and elevation control for monitoring wells 9 and 10 as well as the locations of new monitoring wells (if any) that are recommended. Survey should be conducted at an accuracy of 1/100th ft and tied to existing wells and site TBM. The contractor will work directly with the COR and the Department of Health to ensure that all requirements have been met. Performance: In addition to the final report, preliminary reports will be submitted for review at 25%, 50%, and 90% completion. Other requirements: The report must be prepared by a qualified hydro-geologist registered and licensed in the state. Experience working in similar terrains on the Olympic Peninsula, in particular with glacial sediments, depositional environments, and marine sediments... is required. Deliverables: Three (3) copies of report specified above. Two will be submitted to the Forest Service and one for the Department of Health. It is intended that the work on this project will begin on or about October 01, 2011 and be completed by January 31, 2012. CONTRACT INFORMATION: This contract is being procured in accordance with the Brooks Act (P.L. 92-582) as implemented in FAR Subpart 36.6.
