The Naval Base Kitsap Manchester Fuel Department (MFD) is requesting urgent repairs for two anchor mooring buoys to ensure the safe operations of fueling vessels. The Statement of Work (SOW) outlines a detailed scope for replacing chains and hardware on the East and West Buoys, which are currently detached. The contractor is responsible for providing a qualified dive team and equipment for this underwater work, including the installation of new anchor chains and the reattachment of buoys, along with deliverables such as a diver video and a brief report on the work completed.
The government will supply the buoys post-repair, while the contractor must furnish all labor, tools, and materials required. The project must be completed within 60 days of contract award, with necessary scheduling notifications provided 72 hours in advance. All personnel requiring base access must adhere to strict identification protocols as MFD is a restricted military area. The SOW lays out expectations for workmanship, safety compliance, material standards, and waste management, emphasizing the need for adherence to federal, state, and local regulations. This document serves as a formal request for contractors to engage in a critical maintenance operation to maintain operational safety at the fuel pier.
