This government Statement of Work (SOW) outlines the requirements for project SGBP 26-0002, titled "MAINTAIN AIRFIELD PAINT & RUBBER REMOVAL. F666." The contractor is responsible for furnishing all necessary paint, labor, equipment, and materials to apply airfield paints and reflective media to paved airfield and vehicle driving lane surfaces. Additionally, the contractor must remove 85% of rubber deposits from 100% of the designated rubber-covered areas on the active runway. The project requires adherence to specific military construction standards (UFC 3-260-04, UFGS 32 01 11.51, UFGS 32 17 23.19), OSHA safety regulations, and ISO 9001 quality management standards. Key requirements include precise paint application in specified colors and widths, careful rubber and paint removal without damaging pavement, proper disposal of waste, and a one-year warranty on materials and labor. The contractor must coordinate with the government to avoid disruptions and repair any damage to government property.
The Statement of Work outlines a project to maintain airfield pavements F645, F666, F667, F696, F670, F676, and F698, dated September 23, 2025, with Opportunity # SGBP 25-0007. The project requires the contractor to provide all labor, equipment, materials, and services for asphalt and concrete pavement maintenance, including crack sealing and seal coating, strictly adhering to federal safety regulations and specific UFGS and UFC standards. The scope includes base bid work (60,000 SY Asphalt, 400 SY Concrete) and three bid options for additional asphalt and concrete work. Detailed objectives cover asphalt crack sealing, asphalt surface sealing using Gilsonite Modified Asphalt emulsion, and concrete pavement crack sealing with specific material requirements and application conditions. Additional general requirements include adherence to various building codes, airfield re-striping standards, site cleanliness, protection of existing infrastructure, and coordination for base access and utility locating. The contractor is responsible for infrastructure installation, equipment integration, obtaining necessary clearances and permits, quality assurance aligned with ISO 9001, and site restoration. Specific instructions are provided for working hours, security, base access through the STRATCOM gate, and itemized bidding for materials and labor. A site visit is mandatory prior to bidding, and a final walk-through will facilitate work acceptance.
UFC 3-260-04, published on May 16, 2018, establishes unified criteria for airfield and heliport marking across all Department of Defense (DoD) activities. This document consolidates previous standards from the Air Force, Army, and Navy to ensure uniformity in visual guidance aids on DoD airfields worldwide. It outlines standard dimensions, colors (including retro-reflectivity requirements), layout, placement, and orientation for markings on paved surfaces of fixed and rotary wing runways, taxiways, helipads, and landing lanes. The UFC also provides authority to mark hazards to air navigation. It specifies different marking schemes for visual flight rules (VFR), non-precision, and precision instrument runways, as well as unique markings for Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) runways. The document details material selection for paints and retro-reflective media, application rates, and procedures for temporary and permanent markings, including the obliteration of extraneous markings. It also addresses specific practices for special circumstances, such as open-graded wearing surfaces and maximum paint thickness. The criteria apply to DoD-owned facilities, with provisions for joint-use facilities and overseas installations based on host nation agreements or international standards like ICAO Annex 14. Waivers for non-compliance are required and must follow established procedures.
This Unified Facilities Guide Specification (UFGS) 32 01 11.51, effective November 2023, outlines the requirements for removing rubber and paint from airfield pavements, including asphalt and portland cement concrete. It supersedes the May 2016 version and is prepared by USACE. The document details administrative requirements, submittals, safety protocols, and acceptance criteria based on removal tolerances (e.g., 90% for rubber on concrete, 85% for paint). It specifies approved removal methods like waterblasting and mechanical removal, prohibiting shotblasting and limiting sandblasting. The guide emphasizes environmental considerations, airfield traffic control, emergency procedures, and waste disposal. Contractors must submit plans for work schedules, waste disposal, and pre-existing conditions, with Government approval required for critical items. The goal is to ensure effective removal while minimizing pavement damage and maintaining airfield safety and functionality.
The Unified Facilities Guide Specification UFGS-32 01 13.63 outlines requirements for Gilsonite Modified Asphalt Emulsion Seal Coats on various pavements, including roads, parking areas, and airfields. The specification details measurement and payment procedures based on unit pricing and test section determined application rates. It provides extensive references to ASTM and FAA standards, specifies equipment such as computer rate-controlled asphalt distributors and aggregate spreaders, and mandates equipment calibration. Quality assurance measures include manufacturer's representation, material sampling, and source approval for aggregates and emulsion. Product specifications cover Gilsonite modified asphalt emulsion properties, aggregate gradation, polymer requirements, and water quality. Execution guidelines detail surface preparation, crack repair, environmental conditions, emulsion mixing, material quantities per square meter, test sections for application rate determination, field quality control, and traffic control. The document emphasizes safety, environmental compliance, and adherence to specific application procedures to ensure durability and adequate surface friction, particularly for airfield pavements.
The USACE / NAVFAC / AFCEC UFGS-32 17 23.19 (November 2024) outlines comprehensive standards for airfield pavement markings, superseding the August 2016 version. This guide specification covers requirements for marking airfields, heliports, and hangar floors using paint and glass bead dispensers, including surface preparation. It details unit prices, measurement methods for reflective, non-reflective, and temporary markings, and payment procedures. The document specifies numerous references, submittal requirements for quality control plans, personnel qualifications, material data sheets, and test reports. Special conditions address environmental factors like weather limitations, VOC compliance, and critical traffic control procedures for airfields, including radio communications, emergency operations, and night work. It also covers equipment calibration, product specifications for surface preparation, marking application equipment, airfield materials (paints, preformed tape, reflective media), and execution details like test sections, surface preparation, pre-application testing, temporary markings, and field quality control and acceptance. The document concludes with cleanup and waste disposal guidelines, emphasizing the importance of adherence to detailed specifications for safety and performance.
