Alternate Objectives Clause Samples
Alternate Objectives. This section and the subparagraphs below describe the Alternate Objective Sites and a general overview of the work associated with these sites. Please see Table 1 for specific elements of work required for each site with an Alternate Objective PO. These sites have complex attributes that have, to date, inhibited progress towards the achievement of RC. For Alternate Objective sites, as for all sites in Table 1 of the PWS where applicable, the Contractor shall maintain compliance throughout the POP of the contract with all existing regulatory requirements including but not limited to regulations, Federal Facility Agreements, RCRA Permits, final or interim RODs, or other equivalent remedial DD. The Contractor is responsible for implementing changes to the monitoring program based on activities conducted in the Advanced Site Characterization as described in Section 1.2.3.1 including the addition and decommissioning of ▇▇▇▇▇ in the monitoring well network as agreed by the all parties and the addition of new delineation monitoring where new information indicates our understanding of the plumes is changed. Based on technical review of existing site conditions/activities, the AF placed sites in the category of Alternate Objective if one or more of the following conditions exist:
1. Achieving RC is expected to require substantially longer than 30 years;
2. Achieving RC is unattainable with standard characterization and/or existing remediation technology due to technical or other limitations related to site conditions; and/or
3. Achieving RC is anticipated to require advanced site characterization technologies to improve the CSM, determine appropriate remedial technology, and/or characterize recently regulated contaminants. The AF will use data and information obtained during execution of this PWS to determine restoration potential and future investment strategies at Alternate Objective sites. Each Sub- CLIN for the Alternate Objective sites will only be awarded if the activities are needed to determine the future investment strategy for the site. The decision to award each Sub-CLIN resides solely at the discretion of the AF. For each Alternate Objective site, a summary of site-specific considerations is provided as GFI. As with all GFI provided, this GFI is provided for informational purposes only; the Contractor remains responsible for developing their own independent, professional conclusions/interpretation of site conditions and requirements to achieve the PO.
