Stennis Space Center, MS 39529 Statement of Work for Trichloroethylene and Perchloroethylene Monitoring At the NASA Ames Research Center Background Ames Research Center is situated on land that has been designated as an EPA Superfund site. Several former manufacturing and industrial facilities in the area required the storage, handling and use of a variety of chemicals, including trichloroethylene (TCE) and perchloroethylene (PCE). During operations, some of the chemicals leaked or were otherwise released to the ground, impacting groundwater and soil. Objective Ames Research Center intends to conduct air monitoring at three buildings on a continuous basis for one month that will provide insight on potential vapor intrusion from the Middlefield Ellis Whisman (MEW) Superfund Plume. To achieve this we are soliciting bids for services and equipment to conduct chemical detection of trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene in air to a level that is relevant to EPA cleanup requirements for a Superfund site (1 part per billion). Scope of Work Provide services and equipment to monitor trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene in air for a period of one month in each of three NASA Ames buildings. Sampling will occur at two locations on the basement level of the buildings and one location on the roof of the building. The sample method will; 1. be commercially available for NASA to purchase. 2. be able to detect trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene with a lower detection limit of 1 part per billion in air with few chemicals that would interfere with detection (for instance a detection method that has aircraft fuel or aircraft exhaust interference would not be suitable. Similarly photoionization detectors have hundreds of compounds that interfere with TCE & PCE rendering them unsuitable. 2. be able to detect and log temperature and relative humidity. 3. log results in a format that can be easily exported to Microsoft Excel that include concentration in air, date, time, temperature, and relative humidity. 4. be tamper proof. Equipment on roof to be protected from weather (if vulnerable). 5. log air concentration at an interval of approximately 1 minute (about 1440 logged measurements per day). 6. be portable. 7. operate continuously for a week at a time (24 hours * 7 days) without needing to be reset/download data/recalibrated. The proposal will include a cost estimate for purchase of the monitoring equipment. Schedule Sampling Dates Location Report issued by October 1 through October 31, 2017 Building N241 November 10, 2017 November 1 through November 30, 2017 Building N213 December 10, 2017 December 1 through December 31, 2017 Building N245 January 10, 2018 Deliverables A report will be delivered on schedule and include; 1. A log of weather conditions for each day of data logging such as; Day Description High / Low Precip Wind Humidity JUL 19 Sunny 77°/57° 0 NNW 15 mph 51% 2. A table for each day's data (about 1440 values), and will include a separate listing of the averaged level for each of three (8 hour) work shifts (midnight to 8 am, 8am to 4 pm, and 4 pm to midnight). Brief down time in monitoring for calibration and downloading of data are allowable. 3. Charted air concentration of TCE and PCE air concentration data of one month and weekly periods. 4. Calibration for TCE and PCE on a weekly basis including photographs of calibration gases used, written procedure and calibration results. 5. Report will include a description of the chemical detection technology used. The Report will be issued in electronic format in an Excel spreadsheet. Place of Performance NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field CA Buildings N213, N241, and N245. Arrangements will be made by Ames Research Center to provide escort to the buildings, basements and roofs. The ability to climb a 15 foot ladder will be needed to access some roof locations.
