PROJECT SCOPE This services contract to provide janitorial services at Sam Rayburn Powerhouse (SRPH) and RD Willis Power Plant (RDW), in Jasper County Texas. The work is to be performed at the Power Plants and adjacent, parking areas and access roads. SRPH will be five days a week and RDW will be one afternoon a week, DISPOSAL OF WASTE SRPH has a self-contained sewage disposal system which is capable of handling typical detergents and wastewaters. Clear and soapy wastewater may be poured into the drains in the Janitors closets and other specially designated drains. Plant personnel will identify the appropriate drains for disposal of mop and rinse waters within the SRPH at the beginning of contract work. Use of inappropriate drains could result in contamination of the river waters and is prohibited. Any waters which contain cleaning agents, soaps, waxes, or strippers will be poured into storage barrels as directed at the SRPH for disposal by the Government. RDW does not have a sewage disposal system available for disposal for detergents, therefore, all mopping operations conducted at RDW will be performed using “HOT” water and using no detergents and no waxes. On infrequent occasions when RDW floors must be cleaned using detergents, Government personnel will perform the “spot cleaning” and transport the associated detergent wastewater to the SRPH facility for disposal. The Contractor is specifically prohibited from using detergents in mop water used at the RDW facility. Based upon the prohibition against use of detergents, any mop water used for the cleaning of the RDW floors will be uncontaminated “soiled water” and will be directly poured into the drains of the RDW power plant and subsequently discharged directly into the river without contamination. Solid Waste Disposal Requirements SRPH has a solid waste dumpster located in the compound at the Sam Rayburn Project Office. These dumpsters are for use by the Contractor. These dumpsters will be used by the Janitorial Contractor for all solid waste except for any materials separated by Government personnel for recycling. The Contractor will perform transportation to properly dispose of solid waste into the dumpsters. Any future requirements pertaining to trash separation/recycling transportation will be performed by separate contract and are not included in this contract. Access code will be given to enter the project office compound to utilize dumpster. RDW facility has trash barrels located outside of the Power Plant as well as inside the facility, which are for use in disposal of the solid waste and debris. Each day that work is performed at RDW facility, the Contractor will remove all trash and debris from the facility and transport it to the nearby Sandy Creek Park (approximately 2 miles from Plant) and enter the park to dispose of the trash in the Government provided dumpster located near the restroom facility. If debris is too large for the barrels, the Contractor will notify COR/QA to arrange for removal of the large objects.
