Description: COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION W9127N24Q0098 Amendment 0002 - Shipping addresses for locations on PWS Willamette Valley Project (WVP) & Rogue River Basin (RRB) Project Water Testing Blanket Purchase Agreement U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS, PORTLAND DISTRICT (CENWP) 11 June 2024 This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial services prepared in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Solicitation W9127N24Q0098 is a Request for Quotes under FAR Part 13 for the establishment of a firm fixed price blanket purchase agreement (BPA) with multiple vendors, for contractors who can provide non-personal services in field sampling, or Mailing and Chain of Custody Supplies for Government collection, and laboratory analysis of water quality samples. �This is a new requirement and there is no incumbent. The purpose of this service is to satisfy Oregon Revised Statutes 448.131 that authorizes Oregon State Drinking Water Services to adopt administrative rules to ensure safe drinking water and safe freshwater contact recreation at designated swim beaches within Willamette Valley Project. The WVP has a total of 5 drinking water systems that can provide drinking water for either employees and/or visitors that fall under Oregon State drinking water rules and 2 designated swimming areas. Drinking water systems are a mix of Non-Transient Non-Community and Transient Non-Community that operate both annually and seasonally.� Because USACE provides this drinking water, we are required to perform certain water quality analysis of these systems to ensure that water meets drinking water standards set forth in ORS 448.131 and 340-041-0009.� RRB has 1 drinking water system that can provide drinking water for either employees and/or visitors that fall under Oregon State drinking water rules. Traditionally, USACE has collected the samples of water and either delivered by hand or mail to testing facilities.� Moving forward, USACE is searching for contractors who are trained, certified, and able to perform the sample collection, when called on by the Contracting Officer�s Representative, then perform the testing and provide the reported results to the USACE COR. Or if contractor is unable to perform the testing, then contractor would supply the Government with sampling instructions, containers, container labels, chain of custody forms, packaging instructions, all materials necessary for the safe and method appropriate handling, collection, preservation of water sample, supply sample containers suitable for the sample matrix and analytical method, and supply shipping labels for the testing materials to be shipped to the lab via one-day ground. Additionally, WVP & RRB must satisfy ODEQ request to provide supplemental data for a pending permit issuance.� In 2015, USACE submitted a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit renewal application to the ODEQ. Upon review of the permit renewal application, ODEQ determined that supplemental data is necessary to proceed with issuing a permit. The analysis may be conducted for the following locations, Detroit Dam, Big Cliff Dam, Foster Dam, Green Peter Dam, Cougar Dam, Dexter Dam, Hills Creek Dam, Lookout Point Dam, and Lost Creek Dam.� With regard to the NPDES testing requirements, the Government is looking for similar capabilities from the contractor of either the ability to perform the sample collection, testing and provide the reported results, or if unable to perform the testing, provide all materials necessary for the safe and method appropriate handling, collection, preservation of water sample to be shipped to the lab via one-day ground. These services are in support of US Army Corps of Engineers (CE), Portland District (NWP) Operations Division (OD), Willamette Valley, and Rogue River Project (CENWP-ODVR).
