FOR

GAS LEAK DETECTION, REPAIR, VALVE INSTALLATION, AND ASPHALT

PATCHING SERVICES

1.0 GENERAL

1.1 Background

A gas leak has been identified at United States Coast Guard Training Center Birmingham Southern, 900 Arkadelphia Road, Birmingham, AL. Immediate repair is required to ensure safety, prevent further damage or hazard, and restore normal operations of the gas line and parking area. This requirement is for a firm-fixed-price construction-type services effort consisting of excavation, gas valve installation, backfill, and asphalt restoration. This project is pursued to eliminate the safety hazard associated with the gas leak and to return the affected parking lot area to full operational use.

1.2 Scope

The Contractor shall provide all labor, supervision, materials, equipment, tools, transportation, testing, cleanup, and other items needed to complete this work. The work includes:
1. Confirm the approximate location of the gas leak using a gas detector or similar nondestructive method. 2. Coordinate any gas shutoff and restart with the Government Technical Representative (GTR) and the gas utility, if needed.
3. Review utility markings before digging. The Contractor shall not begin digging until utility markings are in place.
4. Saw-cut the parking-lot asphalt and excavate as needed to safely reach the gas line and repair the leak.
5. Repair the gas leak and install one new gas shutoff valve. 6. Test the repaired gas line and valve before backfilling the excavation. 7. Backfill the excavation with suitable material and repair the asphalt pavement. 8. Remove all spoils, debris, excess materials, equipment, and temporary safety devices from the site.
The expected excavation area is about 6 feet by 6 feet and up to about 6 feet deep. These dimensions are estimates for planning purposes. The Contractor shall excavate only as needed to complete the required repair safely.
If the Contractor finds a condition that is outside this scope—such as rock, an unmarked utility, a leak outside the planned area, a pipe that is different from the expected pipe, or a need for repair beyond the identified leak and one valve—the Contractor shall stop work in that area, make the area safe, and notify the GTR and Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall not perform additional work unless directed in writing by the Contracting Officer. This requirement does not include repair or replacement of electrical, water, sewer,
