The Government will entertain question concerning this market research. The intent of this notice is to determine the availability of business to provide Inspection, Calibration, and Maintenance on Fixed Monitoring Stations. Reclamation has established the need for long-term, continuous daily monitoring of total dissolved gas, temperature, barometric pressure at each of its three sites on the mid-Columbia River and seasonal monitoring at a fourth site (tailrace at Hungry Horse Dam), with potential for year-round monitoring when forced winter spill is required. As river management agencies began comparing water quality methodology and data, problems associated with inconsistent field monitoring equipment maintenance were identified and quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) protocols were developed to improve data confidence. As required in the most recent Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS) Biological Opinion (December 2000), minimum data quality objectives were defined and QA/QC lab and field protocols proposed in March 2002 by hydropower authorities. Reclamation intends to adopt the draft Data Quality Objectives (DQO) and is interested in improving data confidence at each Reclamation fixed monitoring site. SCOPE OF WORK There are four (4) fixed monitoring stations (FMS) for the Columbia-Pacific Northwest Region that required bi-monthly inspection, calibration and maintenance services. The contractor shall travel to each station as required to ensure the proper operation of each FMS. The anticipated Period of Performance for this requirement is: April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024; with four (4), 12-month option years through March 31, 2028.
