The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, is conducting research to determine the market capabilities of potential contractors to perform VIDEO INSPECTION services for the Government at Eagle Island, North Carolina. Description of Work: The work to be performed under this contract consists of a closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection of the pipes associated with Spillways 4, 5, and 6 at Cell 2 of Eagle Island. The pipe systems associated with spillways consist of approximately 24-inch diameter high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe with lengths for Spillway 4, 5, and 6, of approximately 790 linear feet (LF), 600 LF, and 660 LF, respectively. During the original installation, the HDPE pipe segments were delivered in 50-foot lengths and were welded in the field. The entire portion of the pipe systems should be video inspected using a Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) meeting the requirements outlined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS). ROV data output shall include the horizontal distance of ROV travel and the change in ROV elevation as it travels through each pipe. The horizontal distance traveled by the ROV shall be recorded and displayed on the bottom of the video frame during the inspection. For each segment of pipe, the change in elevation and horizontal distance of the ROV shall be represented with a graph and provided in the Report of Findings (ROF). The direction of travel, up-flow or down-flow, and the spillway name shall be provided for each graph. Information obtained from the inspection shall include horizontal and vertical control that is synchronized with the color video. The precision of the control shall be within 0.1 feet horizontally and 0.1 feet vertically. The video inspection equipment shall be capable of panning/ tilting 360 degrees. The contractor shall pan around the connection of the invert of the pipe to the spillway riser structure and at all joints and connections throughout the pipe. The video for the ROV shall have a minimum resolution of 1080p. Standing water is expected to be encountered during the video inspections. As a result, the ROV shall be able to travel when the pipe is dry, partially full of water, and completely full of water. The Contractor shall provide a Report of Findings detailing the inspection and findings. The Contractor shall provide all labor, equipment, supplies, and transportation required to inspect the pipes at Spillways 4, 5, and 6; except those materials provided by the Government, as identified in Section 1.16.1.
