Description

International Boundary and Water Commission United States and Mexico United States Section PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS) FOR ANZALDUAS DAM & FIELD OFFICE CONVERSION OF THE ANZALDUAS DAM STORAGE BUILDING TO THE ANZALDUAS DAM SSD SECURITY OFFICE WITH EMERGENCY GENERATOR BACKGROUND The United States Section of the International Boundary and Water Commission (USIBWC), Security Services Division (SSD), is planning to convert the Anzalduas Dam Storage Building to the Anzalduas Dam SSD Security Office and installing an emergency generator to provide emergency power to the new Security Office as well as to the Anzalduas Dam Headquarters buildings. 1.2 DAM REQUIRING SERVICE 1.2.1 ANZALDUAS DAM Anzalduas Dam is located south of Mission, Texas and is used to divert the U.S. share of floodwaters into the U.S. interior floodway, to divert water into Mexico’s main irrigation canal, and to release water downstream for users in both countries. The Anzalduas Diversion Dam is a concrete dam and is approximately 524 feet (160 m) long, 23 feet (7 m) high. The United States Section of the International Boundary and Water Commission (USIBWC) is a federal government agency and the U.S. component of the International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC), which applies the boundary and water treaties of the United States and Mexico. Our mission is to provide binational solutions to issues that arise during the application of United States - Mexico treaties regarding boundary demarcation, national ownership of waters, sanitation, water quality, and flood control in the border region. The areas along the US-Mexico border are plagued with human and narcotics smuggling and violence surrounding these activities. It is not within the USIBWC’s scope or desires to directly attempt to control, enforce, or prevent these activities. However, USIBWC is committed to upgrading an effective physical security system to enhance its abilities to effectively delay, deter, and deny access to unauthorized persons, vehicles, and decrease its susceptibility to criminal and terrorist action upon its properties. Condition of Project: The facility has Physical Access Control Systems (PACS), Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), Closed Circuit Television Systems (CCTV), fencing, lighting, and other security measures. These systems are managed by the CCURE 9000 Security Management System (SMS). The hours of operation for the facility are typically, Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, except on holidays. SUMMARY The purpose of this project is to convert the 20 x 20 (approx.) unheated, uninsulated storage building to an insulated, climate-controlled security office where SSD Public Safety Officers can operate from and monitor activities in the area via CCTV.. The project will also include the turnkey installation of an emergency generator capable of providing emergency power to the Anzalduas Dam Headquarters Buildings and SSD Security Office. The Contractor shall provide all work plans, designs, drawings, investigations, studies, permits, project supervision, equipment, labor, materials, installation/implementation, integration with current system components, testing, training, annual maintenance estimates, and travel required to meet the project requirements under the Anzalduas Dam and Field Office requirements established by the USIBWC Security Services Division (SSD) and this Performance Work Statement (PWS). The work supplied under this specification shall be complete in every detail for the purpose required. The Contract shall include the supply of materials and services not specifically mentioned herein, but which may be necessary to complete any portion of the work in compliance with the requirements of this PWS. APPLICABLE CODES, RULES, AND REGULATIONS The Contractor shall comply with the most updated or recent version of all applicable laws, standards, codes and regulations while designing, manufacturing, finishing, and installing the measures at the Anzalduas Dam and Field Office; including but not limited to the following: Building Codes: Accessibility Code: Texas Government Code, Chapter 469, Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS) American with Disabilities Act: 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design Electrical Code: 2014 National Electric Code Energy Code: 2012 International Energy Conservation Code Energy Code: IECC 2009 LEED 2009 New Construction Certification Fire/Life Safety Code: 2012 International Fire Code Gas Code: 2012 International Fuel & Gas Code Mechanical Code: 2012 International Mechanical Code 9.
