- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District (NYD) is issuing a solicitation package seeking to award one Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for the Biological Testing of Dredged Material.� The IDIQ contract would consist of the sampling and testing of dredged material for placement at the Historic Area Remediation Site (HARS) following procedures described in the�2016 US Army Corps of Engineers New York District/EPA Region 2 Guidance for Performing Tests on Dredged Material Proposed for Ocean Disposal� (aka. Regional Testing Manual) (http://www.nan.usace.army.mil/Portals/37/docs/regulatory/Formdoc/FINAL_NYD-R2_REGIONAL_TESTINGMANUAL-APRIL%202016.pdf) and the�1991 EPA/USACE, Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Ocean Disposal (aka. the Green Book)�(https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2015-10/documents/green_book.pdf), including subsequent updates to these two documents.� There will be additional work for sampling and testing of dredged material proposed for upland placement following the procedures described in the October 1997, New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) technical manual entitled �The Management and Regulation of Dredging Activities and Dredged Material in New Jersey�s Tidal Waters�� (http://www.nj.gov/dep/passaicdocs/docs/NJDOTSupportingCosts/DREDGING-NJ%20MANUAL-1997.pdf) and in the November 2004, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) manual, entitled �Technical & Operational Guidance Series (TOGS) 5.1.9 In-Water and Riparian Management of Sediment and Dredged Material�, https://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/water_pdf/togs519.pdf, including subsequent updates to these two documents. Task orders would include all or some of the following: sediment and water collection (on contractor?supplied ship); sample handling, processing and shipping; physical and chemical analyses; QA/QC procedures and necessary corrective actions.� Reports containing the sampling logs, all testing results and QA/QC information in a format required by the New York District Corps of Engineers (NYD) and/or NJDEP/NYSDEC would have to be provided by the contractor for each delivery order.� A Work/QA Plan and an Accident Prevention Plan (APP) prepared by the contractor and approved by NYD would be required prior to any sampling or testing.� A Work/QA Plan must include: descriptions of all technical procedures for field sampling, laboratory analyses (eg. chemical, physical) for HARS and upland testing, data reduction and validation, and reporting; clearly written standard operating procedures (SOP) for all field, experimental and analytical procedures; clearly defined QA objectives that are consistent with the regulations, Regional Testing Manual, Green Book, TOGS, and NJDEP Technical Manual (1997) , a permit application; mechanisms for conducting performance and systems audits during the course of the field laboratory work; and procedures for detecting problems with the sampling and analytical work, and implementing corrective actions in a timely manner. All sampling would be performed within the Port of New York & New Jersey, all Federal Navigation Channels within New York District, the length of the Hudson River, in the Atlantic Ocean at the Historic Area Remediation Site and its Mud Dump Reference Site. A detailed description of work required for these contracts will be provided in its entirety upon issuance of the complete solicitation.� Prior to issuance of the solicitation, it is highly recommended that interested parties read both the Green Book and the RTM in order to obtain a thorough understanding of the work required in the NYD/EPA, Region 2 dredged material testing program.� The Period of Performance will be five years from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed (NTP). �One contract will be awarded on an Unrestricted basis to the lowest bidder who has currently (within the last 18 months) demonstrated to EPA, Region 2, through submission of actual data, that they are capable of performing work in our program.� A bidder will be considered to have demonstrated they are capable if we have documentation from EPA, Region 2 (within the last 18 months) stating that the laboratory has submitted data that is fully acceptable or acceptable with qualification, or that they have satisfied Demonstration of Capability (DOC) requirements for the NYD/EPA, Region 2 dredged material testing program.��The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 541380.� The business size standard is $16,500,000.
