This firm-fixed-price competitive solicitation aims to enhance and automate the oil accountability and monitoring systems at the dam powerhouse, which currently contains approximately 400,000 gallons of oil. The project supports compliance with an Oil Accountability Plan arising from a 2014 settlement agreement, focusing on minimizing oil releases into the Columbia River by installing advanced instrumentation such as level sensors, flow meters, pressure transmitters, and networking equipment across turbines, bearings, oil storage tanks, and other critical equipment. The contract includes mobilization, calibration, installation, system integration, commissioning, documentation, and training, while also addressing environmental, safety, and hazardous material management requirements, including asbestos surveying and potential abatement. The performance period spans from the Notice to Proceed (NTP) issuance, requiring work commencement within 10 days, with physical completion due within 477 calendar days and contract end by day 568 after NTP. Place of performance is the dam facility at The Dalles, covering both Oregon and Washington sides of the river. The contract incorporates a broad array of FAR and DFARS clauses addressing labor standards, safety, cybersecurity, subcontracting, environmental compliance, and special prohibitions on certain telecommunication equipment, with mandatory government access and oversight. Key evaluation factors under a Best Value Tradeoff methodology are past performance, small business subcontracting commitment, and price, with technical factors roughly equal in weight to price. Contractor responsibilities include detailed quality control and safety plans, daily inspections, and adherence to federal, state, and USACE environmental and safety standards. Payment procedures utilize the Resident Management System for invoicing, with progress payments linked to verified work performance. Proposal submission must be electronic PDF, segmented if necessary, and organized into separate volumes for technical and price information per solicitation instructions. Overall estimated contract magnitude falls between $1 million and $5 million, with multiple firm-fixed-price contract line items covering various scope elements including instrumentation installation, calibration, asbestos surveys, and optional asbestos removal and disposal.

SYNOPSIS
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Portland District is soliciting a Contract for The Dalles Dam Oil Accountability Measures in the Dalles, Oregon. The proposed project will be a competitive, firm-fixed price (FFP) contract.
Background: The Dalles Dam is located in The Dalles, Oregon. The Dalles Dam (TDA) is a concrete gravity run-of-the-river dam spanning the Columbia River, two miles east of the city of The Dalles, Oregon, United States. It joins Wasco County Oregon, with Klickitat County Washington, 300 miles upriver from the mouth of the Columbia River near Astoria, Oregon. The project is designed to improve the monitoring of the amount of oil that could be released into the Columbia River. Its main objective is to minimize the oil release.
Purpose: There are approximately 400,000 gallons of oil at the TDA powerhouse. Oil monitoring measures currently consist primarily of visual observations of sight glasses, observations of oil leaks on and around equipment, and purchase and disposal records of lubricants. The Federal Government agreed to develop and apply an Oil Accountability Plan (OAP) pursuant to the August 2014 settlement agreement with Columbia Riverkeepers. The OAP is intended to account for oils and greases used, including the oils and greases used in turbines, wicket gate bearings, and fish-way equipment. This project would improve the ability to consistently and reliably account and monitor leakage of oils through automated systems and greatly increase the timeliness of level monitoring. It would also assist in fulfilling the requirements of the Portland Districts Standing Environmental Policy 200-1, Oil Accountability while significantly reducing the O&M costs to do so. The purpose of this project is to improve accuracy and increase automation of instrumentation to account for oil in oil-filled equipment, bulk storage containers, and high-risk equipment. It is also to aid in the identification of oil leaks as early as possible and fully account for potential leaks.
