Above Ground Storage / Underground Storage

Background
McConnell Air Force Base (AFB) requires a maintenance contract for the inspection and repair of above ground bulk fuel storage tanks (ASTs) and underground bulk fuel storage tanks (USTs). The USTs and ASTs require annual inspection and maintenance to maintain their permitted status, as mandated by the State of Kansas. McConnell AFB does not have certified personnel to perform these activities, and losing the permits for the tanks would adversely impact the mission by causing McConnell to lose its ability to store fuel in those tanks.

The scope of work includes annual inspections, rainwater removal, service calls, repairs, and providing written documentation and reports concerning all inspections, maintenance, and repairs performed on all storage tanks. The contractor is also responsible for performing tightness tests, line leak detection, thorough inspection of fuel pumps as required by state and federal mandates, inspecting the ATG system to ensure all components are in working order, performing spill bucket leak tests, STP sump tests, dispenser sump tests as required by state and federal mandates. Additionally, the contractor shall respond to service calls within 72 hours unless coordinated with the Program Manager (PM).

Period of Performance
