- HVAC HEPA Filter Prototype and Testing Subcontract Requisition Number: 24590-QL-SRA-MKH0-00015 Submit Interest By: September 10, 2012 Estimated Budget: >$100,000 and <$500,000 Schedule: •· Issue Request for Proposal: October 15, 2012 •· Award and Notice to Proceed: February 18, 2013 •· Start Work: March 4, 2013 •· All Work Complete: August 4, 2014 Safety Classification: NON-ITS Additional Characteristic: None. Quality Level: QL Type of Subcontract: Firm Fixed Price PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION The Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) is a complex of radioactive waste treatment processing facilities designed and constructed by Bechtel National, Inc. for the Department of Energy (DOE). The facility will process the Hanford Site tank waste and convert the waste into a stable glass form. The Project site is located in the 200 East Area of the Hanford Reservation near Richland, Washington, along the Columbia River. The site elevation varies from 662 to 684 feet above mean sea level. Ambient temperature range is -23 degrees F minimum to 113 degrees F maximum, with relative humidity of 5% minimum to 100% maximum. The project design life is 40 years. SCOPE OF WORK The WTP Project is in need of nuclear class radial flow HEPA filters to remove radioactive and hazardous materials from the ventilation and processes exhaust gases. Several systems impose unique service conditions for their filters. Few are alike and it is unlikely that a single design will satisfy all requirements. Design variables include temperature, relative humidity, filter loading, seismic, corrosive gases, aerosol size, and differential pressure. One or more filter designs may be necessary for the different applications. The Scope of Work includes the following: •1. Provide engineering, procure, construction, and critique of the various filter concepts being considered. •2. Refine filter design concepts and issue design drawings. •3. Support selection of the filter design concept(s) for further development. •4. Manufacture prototype filters of the selected design for testing. •5. As an option, perform filter testing to demonstrate adequate performance under criteria developed by DOE, WTP, and the filter manufacturer(s). •6. As an option, perform certification testing of the successful filter designs to WTP criteria, ASME AG-1, and UL criteria. •7. If testing is performed, issue final report(s) describing design, performance, and qualification testing of the selected filter designs. •8. Build production units for WTP under an ASME NQA-1 program. •9. Test production units for WTP under an ASME NQA-1 program. QUALITY ASSURANCE (QA) REQUIREMENTS Programmatic Quality Assurance requirements for subcontracts performed in the WTP Jobsite will be "NP" (non permanent or temporary work, generally no QA Program required), "CM" (commercial quality based the requirements in DOE Order 414.1C), or "QL" (nuclear level quality based on the requirements in ASME NQA-1 2000). Bechtel may require, as an element of bidder pre-qualification, submission of a representative sample QA Program or Table of Contents copy. For QL subcontracts, the successful bidder's QA Program must be approved prior to award of the subcontract.
