Summary of Scope of Work: Summary of Scope of Work: Background: Currently 10 inch diameter orifices connect the gatewell to the juvenile fish collection channel. Two prototype weir (rounded and sharp crested) designs and an orifice enlarged to 14 inch diameter are to be construction to ascertain if they improve fish passage for juvenile fish. The weir height is adjustable to accommodate certain changes in forebay elevation. The larger orifice and weirs allow more water into the collection channel, so the collection channel also has to be enlarged locally to accommodate the additional water. Description of work: General: Concrete work will include cutting, removal, core drilling, and grouting. Concrete removal will require wire sawing and diamond blade cutting. Metalwork fabrication will be required for mild carbon as well as stainless steel items. Mechanical work will include fabrication and installation of hydraulic power systems that use environmentally friendly hydraulic fluids as well as modifications to the existing pneumatic system. Electrical work will include fabrication and installation of electronic (PLC) level, hydraulic, and safety controls, as well as power delivery systems. Work will require the use of a crane and will take place in an environmentally sensitive area with difficult access and tight working spaces. The contractor must provide a crane and operator for use during the contract period to remove concrete pieces. Anticipated contract period will be December 2012 through March 2013. Safety will be a concern with crane lifts of heavy items; potentially icy conditions; and work over water. Therefore, the contractor will be required to provide a Quality Control Manager, and Site Safety and Health Officer. The personnel assigned to those positions must meet the following requirements. The Quality Control Manager must have completed the "Construction Quality Management for Contractors" course within the last 5 years. The Site Safety and Health Officer must have a minimum of 5 years safety work experience on similar projects; completed of the 30-hour OSHA construction safety class or equivalent within the last 5 years; and completed an average of at least 24 hours of formal safety training each year for the past 5 years. Crane operators shall be designated as qualified by a source that qualifies crane operators (i.e., union, a government agency, or an organization that tests and qualifies crane operators). Each operator shall have experience on a bridge crane of equivalent capacity and characteristics. The contractor's crane requires certification and on-site demonstration to lift 110% of the maximum load to be lifted.
