2. GENERAL:
2.1 The Contractor must provide supervision, labor, material and equipment required to perform all
work for the following project: Provide the repair by replacement of the existing closed circuit
evaporative cooler which serves the water source heat pump system in Building 350, NAS
Oceana, Dam Neck Annex, Virginia Beach, Virginia. All work must be done in a manner to provide
a complete, usable and finished end product. See paragraph “7. WORK REQUIREMENTS” for
an expanded and detailed scope of work.
2.2 The Contractor must comply with the requirements of the most current Contract as prescribed by
the Contracting Officer for use on this contract.
2.3 A Pre-Proposal site meeting must be held at the project site to review and discuss the scope of
work and assess existing field conditions, prior to Award of this Task Order. The Contractor and
his key personnel involved with the project must attend with the Government.
Coordinate/schedule the date and time with the Contracting Officer’s approval.
2.4 Reference information from recent additions and repairs are available upon request via DoD
SAFE file transfer. Reference information (drawings, sketches, specifications, etc.) must be used
for informational purposes only, and may not accurately reflect current as-built conditions. The
Contractor must not solely rely on the reference information to determine existing conditions, but
must field verify all existing conditions pertinent to the project.
2.5 All work must be performed in accordance with, but not limited to, standard industry practices,
applicable local, state and federal codes, laws and regulations, and the Unified Facilities Criteria
(UFC’s).
2.6 FOR PROJECTS INVOLVING LESS THAN 10,000 SQUARE FEET OF LAND DISTURBANCE,
OR WHEN NO LAND DISTURBANCE PROPOSED BUT POTENTIAL FOR STORMWATER
POLLUTION STILL PRESENT (I.E. Painting, Service Connections, Minor building
renovations, hazardous material abatement etc.): The contractor must utilize best
management practices to ensure materials (Paints, Solvents, Petroleum Products, Trash,
Sediment...Etc.) associated with this activity do NOT become a pollutant in storm water runoff.
The Contractor must keep a spill kit on hand in case of any equipment failure, hydraulic line break,
etc. if heavy equipment will be used for this project. No discharges to the sanitary sewer system,

storm system or surface waters are permitted without prior coordination with, and approval from
the Water Program Manager! Concrete mixing and/or pouring must be done in a way to prevent
entry to storm water conveyances or surface waters. Notify NAVFAC EV-Environmental
immediately of any spills (anything other than storm water) to the storm system as well as any
spills to any sewer system since notifications will need to be made to the regulatory authorities
within 24 hours of discovery.
2.7 Supervision: Have a Supervisor fluent in English on the job site during working hours at all times.
The Supervisor must be a United States Citizen or a Documented Legal Resident of the United
States of America.
2.8 Equipment Inventory Form: The Contractor must submit an Equipment Inventory Form for
existing equipment to be demolished/removed, or for new equipment to be provided under this
contract. The Equipment Inventory Form must be completely filled-out and provided for each
piece of equipment as stated in “PART 8 – ATTACHMENTS, EQUIPMENT LISTING”. Further
clarification on the equipment types must also be discussed at the PAK or Pre-Construction
Meetings, or as directed by the Contracting Officer.
Submit all Equipment Inventory Forms to the Contracting Officer, prior to demolition of the
existing equipment and prior to installation of the new equipment. (See PART 8 –
ATTACHMENTS for the Equipment Inventory Form to utilize).
3. SPECIAL SCHEDULING REQUIREMENTS/WORK PROCEDURES:
3.1 The project Contract Completion Date (CCD) must be 210 calendar days from Award of this
Task Order.
3.2 The facility, must remain occupied and in operation during the entirety of this project. Existing
and adjacent spaces to remain in operation during construction must be protected from damage,
dust, and debris at all times. Damage to any existing spaces, finishes, items, furniture and
equipment, as a result of the Contractor’s operations, must be replaced in-kind by the Contractor
at no expense to the Government.
3.2.1 Within 30 days from the award of this contract, the Contractor must provide a temporary closed
circuit evaporative cooler to satisfy the water source heat pump system demands of Building 350
for the duration of this contract, concluding the change-over to and acceptable stat-up/operation
of the new closed circuit evaporative cooler. The Contractor must coordinate with the Contracting
Officer the transition of condenser water service from the current Government contacted
temporary closed circuit evaporative cooler (on site and currently in service) and the Contractor’s
temporary closed circuit evaporative cooler. Temporary unit must include all appropriate controls,
freeze protection and maintenance service support to maintain stable and reliable temporary
condenser water service.
3.3 UTILITIES LOCATION AND VERIFICATION (Exterior): Prior to digging, the appropriate digging
permit must be obtained. All underground utilities in the work area must be positively
identified by a private utility locating service in addition to any station locating service and
coordinated with the station utility department, prior to any digging. Any markings made
during the utility investigation must be maintained throughout the contract. The Contractor must
physically verify underground utility locations by hand digging using wood or fiberglass handled
tools when any adjacent construction work is expected to come within three feet of the
underground system. Digging within 2 feet of a known utility must not be performed by means of

mechanical equipment; hand digging must be used. If construction is parallel to an existing utility
expose the utility by hand digging every 100 feet if parallel within 5 feet of the excavation.
3.4 UTILITIES LOCATION AND VERIFICATION (Interior): Utilities located within concrete slabs or
pier structures, bridges, and the like, are extremely difficult to identify due to the reinforcing steel
used in the construction of these structures. Whenever contract work involves concrete
chipping, saw cutting, or core drilling, the existing utility location must be coordinated
with station utility departments in addition to a private locating service. Outages to isolate
utility systems must be used in circumstances where utilities are unable to be positively identified.
The use of historical reference drawings does not alleviate the contractor from meeting this
requirement. The contractor must perform positive identification and locating of existing
utilities prior to any concrete chipping, saw cutting or core drilling of any kind.
3.5 Laydown Areas and Other Outdoor Work Areas: Provide erosion and sediment control to avoid
contamination into adjacent wetlands, waterways, ditches, and other stormwater systems. No
equipment nor materials should be utilized nor stored in wetlands or waterways without proper
permits. Identify stormwater drains and ditches immediately adjacent and within project work zone
connect to waters of the U.S. that are considered linear wetlands and protected under the Clean
Water Act. Inappropriate erosion and sediment control that results in a release of material into
an upland section of ditch that then runs into wetland/waters of the US is considered fill of
wetlands and subject to the issuance of a notice of violation under the CWA. POC for applicable
BMP’s and regulatory compliance requirements: Michael Wright, PWD Oceana Natural
Resources (NR) Program Manager, [email protected], 757-433-3461.
3.6 Several protected species occur on the installation or within the influence of the installation actions
(e.g., air space, etc.). Particular species of concern include several bat, reptile, insect and bird
species. If any protected species are observed on the project site, stop work on the site where
the animal is located and contact the POC immediately for further guidance. Particular species
of concern anticipated potentially occurring on the project site are bats and birds (for birds, it is
only if they have active nests/nest w eggs or hatchlings, on site).
Due to proximity to aircraft air space and helicopter landing sites, avoid creating Bird/Animal
Aircraft Hazard (BASH) issues:
Ensure facility, equipment and housing does not have unsecured holes that lead to the inside
from the outside. Holes/ventilation should be secured with mesh or other appropriate material to
exclude wildlife from entry. For planning purposes, some species of bats can enter through holes
as small as 6 mm.
Any storage structures or laydown area materials should be housed in a way to minimize its
attraction to wildlife that could pose a Bird/Animal Aircraft Strike Hazard (BASH) on the
installation. Areas of Mounded materials (soils, pipes, etc.) are very inviting to nesting, perching
and/or feeding birds and to rodents which also attract larger animals to the area (prey/predator
relationship). Storage areas that capture water may create mosquito breeding areas that attract
wildlife to the site for feeding (take measures to avoid mosquito breeding). Areas of disturbed or
seeded soil may also attract wildlife. Slit/hydro-seeding of seed or planting of plugs is preferred
to minimize seed loss and attraction of wildlife into airspace.
Species of plants selected for landscaping or revegetation activities should be evaluated to select
species that will minimize attracting wildlife that pose an elevated BASH threat to the airfield.

All outdoor trash receptacles (particularly those where food based trash is disposed) on site must
be secured (lids/doors closed) at all times to avoid the attraction of wildlife to the site.
It is illegal to possess, harm or take a migratory bird without regulatory permit authorizations
(inclusive of animal, active nest, eggs, and/or parts there of). Nesting birds could be present on
the project site and associated laydown area. Do not harm or remove active nests. Contact the
below POC for further guidance and action if an active nest (nest with eggs or hatchlings present)
is present on the project site.
As of Mar 2023, there are no eagle nests within 660 feet of the project site. Eagles are known to
nest in the area. Eagles begin nesting in the late fall/early winter timeframe, check back with the
below POC annually for updates regarding eagle nest locations and associated requirements if a
nest is confirmed within 660 feet of the project area. If an eagle nest were located within 660 feet
of this project site, consultations/permits/mitigation/monitoring may be warranted and outdoor
work limited as specified in the associated permit.
Osprey nests may occur on site. Osprey are protected, do not mess with nests. Recommend
that if a nest is present on site (e.g., on light, power pole, tower, etc.) a minimum 8 feet buffer
from the edge of the nest be established on the ground to establish a worker safety buffer from
potential falling nest debris and bird excrement.
POCs for applicable BMP’s and regulatory compliance requirements: Michael Wright, PWD
Oceana Natural Resources (NR) Program Manager, [email protected], 757-433-3461;
and Doug Lynde Shultz, PWD Oceana Natural Resources (NR) Specialist,
[email protected], 757-635-5436.
Equipment and materials must not be stored or operated directly under trees. If wildlife is
encountered, do not disturb. POC Douglas H Lynde Shultz 757-635-5436
3.7 Do not approach wildlife, do not try to touch or relocate wildlife, DO NOT KILL wildlife. For on
base wildlife emergency issues, contact the Installation Command Duty Officer (CDO) and they
will contact Installation Natural Resources staff to address the wildlife concern (animals only, not
plants).
Feeding, harboring, harassment, collecting, killing, and/or releasing of animals/wildlife (this also
includes feral animals) and plants on the installation is prohibited without obtaining authorized
permits. Precautions should be taken to prevent negative impacts from coming in contact with
wildlife.
This base is known to have poisonous plants (i.e., poison ivy), venomous snakes (i.e.,
copperhead and cottonmouth), bees/wasps/hornets, ticks, mosquitoes, rabid animals, etc.
POCs for applicable BMP’s and regulatory compliance requirements: Michael Wright, PWD
Oceana Natural Resources (NR) Program Manager, [email protected], 757-433-3461;
and Doug Lynde Shultz, PWD Oceana Natural Resources (NR) Specialist,
[email protected], 757-635-5436.
3.8 Equipment must be clean prior to arriving on base to avoid introduction of new or spread of
existing non-native invasive species to the base/location. After working at this site, equipment
should also be cleaned prior to working in any other location/site on or off base.
Reference materials include:
https://www.acq.osd.mil/eie/afpmb/docs/techguides/tg31.pdf;

https://www.usbr.gov/lc/region/g2000/envdocs/EquipmentInspectionandCleaningManual2021.pdf
Due to the known presence of non-native invasive species & noxious weeds in the area, on base
soil/sludge/organic material removed from any projects on base should be disposed of
appropriately off base. Materials on base should not be relocated anywhere on base beyond its
originating location.
Soil/hay/sand/plants/mulch/etc. brought on base for this project should be certified clean

(contaminate and noxious weed free). At this time USDA has noxious weed certification
processes associated with hay, mulch, plants, and some sizes of gravel.
If project damages Navy property that requires revegetation, utilize native vegetation and ensure
the source materials a certified noxious weed free. See landscaping comments for more
information.
POC for applicable BMP’s and regulatory compliance requirements: Doug Lynde Shultz, PWD
Oceana Natural Resources (NR) Specialist, [email protected], 757-635-5436.
3.9 If equipment maneuvering at project site, laydown area, or associated transit result in damage to
vegetation/soil (e.g., rutting), the damage to vegetation/landscaping will require grading and
replanting to bring back to "original" conditions.
ONLY Native Species should be utilized. The installation is located within the Coastal Plains (C)
of VA and as such species native to this zone should be utilized for vegetation/landscaping
activities on base. The installation's Official Source for native status is through a combined use
of http://vaplantatlas.org/ and the book "Flora of Virginia," 2013. The installation also utilizes the
USDA website, http://plants.usda.gov/java/, to determine wildlife value and potential Bird/Animal
Aircraft Strike Hazard (BASH) concern levels.
Utilizing seed is not recommended for re-vegetating the site due to BASH concerns associated
with attracting wildlife to the seed. Whenever possible utilize live plants to repair vegetation. If
seed must be utilized, to reduce BASH concerns utilize slit seeding techniques to get the seed
into the ground (do not leave seed visible on the ground surface). Also, avoid seed coverings
which may entangle wildlife (e.g., net like materials). Seed coverings must be USDA certified
noxious weed free.
Previously approved grasses for landscaping on the Installation included: Virginia Wildrye
(Elymus virginicus); Purpletop/redtop (Tridens flavus); Broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus);
Axonopus furcatus (Big Carpetgrass); Setaria parviflora (Knotroot Foxtail, Knotroot Bristlegrass);
Danthonia spicata (Poverty Oatgrass); and Piptochaetium avenaceum (Eastern
Needlegrass/Blackseed Speargrass).
Any vegetation planting lists should be submitted to the installation Natural Resources Manager
for final approvals. (CAUTION: EXISTING PLANTS FOUND ON BASE, PLANTS IDENTIFIED in
the INSTALLATION APPERANCE PLAN, or PLANTS IDENTIFIED in the LOW IMPACT
DEVELOPMENT PLAN may NOT be Native Species. Select Only Native Species.)
