The dam is located on the Columbia River at Hwy 17 & Pearl Hill Rd, Bridgeport, WA 98813.
The Corps has been issued a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 10 for the Chief Joseph Dam Project. To ensure the protection of water quality and human health, this NPDES permit establishes limits on the types and amounts of pollutants that can be discharged from the Project and requires routine monitoring of discharge points.
The Corps is seeking an accredited laboratory for analytical services to demonstrate compliance with the NPDES permit limits for Oil and Grease. Corps personnel will conduct all sampling and packaging, and schedule pickup of coolers for delivery of the samples to the laboratory. 2.0 Laboratory Accreditation The laboratory shall be accredited in accordance with the National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (NELAP) or have a current laboratory accreditation with the Washington State Department of Ecology Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program for the analyte(s) required in the task(s).
If the laboratory cannot conduct a specific analytical process, they may contract with another laboratory to perform the analysis. All contractors and subcontractors, if any, shall submit at least one of the above accreditations qualifications/certificates when submitting their quote per FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items. 3.0 Laboratory Location The laboratory must be located within 200 road miles of Bridgeport, WA.
4.0 Work Performance Period The base year and option years are shown below. Option years may be exercised at the Government’s discretion.

These sampling quantities include an optional line item for unforeseen analytical. The actual quantities may be lower due to variables with facility operations and frequency of the optional analytical. Samples submitted shall not exceed the anticipated quantities specified in this paragraph.
Only actual quantities performed shall be invoiced. All analytical methods must be approved under the most current 40 CFR part 136, unless a particular method is expressly requested by the Corps. All analysis shall be completed within the allowable holding times listed in 40 CFR 136.3, Table II.
Tables 1 and 2 summarize the sampling quantity, frequency, and parameters for the Chief Joseph Dam Project during the base and option years. In accordance with FAR 52-217-7 OPTION FOR INCREASED QUANTITY, the Contracting Officer may exercise option items by written notice to the Contractor within the Period of Performance, but no less than 30 days prior to the end of the Period of Performance.
The Period of Performance may be extended to accommodate performing Option Items. In the event samples are delivered above their temperature requirements or outside their hold time, the Analytical laboratory shall immediately contact project listed in Section #7 and not conduct any analysis of samples above the recommended temperature range. 6.0 Supplies The laboratory shall supply all materials and equipment for the safe and method appropriate handling, collection, and preservation of samples.
Shipping and sample containers and supplies shall be suitable for the sample matrix and analytical method. The laboratory shall provide sample bottle kits to the Chief Joseph Dam Project in properly sized sample coolers. A typical sample bottle kit shall include: • Properly sized sample coolers • Pre-labeled and preserved sample bottles • Materials for holding wet ice. • Temperature blanks (when required) • Sampling instructions • Sufficient shipping labels • Chain of custody forms • Packaging instructions • Any materials required to ship samples, including boxes, packing materials, etc. The laboratory shall deliver the appropriate amount of sample bottle kits and coolers at least once per month.
Enough coolers will be supplied that allow the project to keep samples once packaged for delivery at 4 ? (+/- 2 ?) until delivered to the laboratory. Coolers will be labeled for proper DOT shipment and sent to the project address listed in Section #7. In addition to the sample kits, the laboratory must provide one (1) additional month supply of sample bottles and labels to be held in stock at the project to be used as replacements for damaged bottles or unplanned verification sampling.
7.0 Deliverables Accurate and complete analytical results shall be provided electronically in a searchable PDF. All electronic laboratory reports shall be submitted to the Corps within 10 business days of sample receipt by the laboratory. All analytical reports shall contain Level II QC data packages including the following at a minimum as appropriate. • Analytical results • Case Narrative • Surrogate recoveries • Chain-of-custody. • Method blank • Laboratory control sample (LCS) and duplicate (LCSD) • Matrix spike (MS) and Matrix spike duplicate (MSD) If discrepancies are found, an updated report will be created and sent electronically to the project contact.
Exceedances of reporting levels will be reported to the project contact listed in Section #7 immediately. All electronic laboratory reports shall be submitted to [email protected] and [email protected]. Chief Joseph Dam Project Warehouse Attn: Marshall Grip or Bradley Nygaard Hwy 17 & Pearl Hill R
