Effective 1 May 2008, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Portland District will no longer utilize its Dive Pre-Qualification Program. b. As a result, any domestic commercial dive Contractor meeting the minimum standards set forth in the most recent edition of the USACE Safety and Health Requirements Manual, EM 385-1-1, and in the Portland District's Dive Safety Regulation, NWPR 385-1-93 (see Appendix A of this Section), will be eligible to compete for routine diving work. The Dive Contractor must have no State or Federal OSHA safety violations within the 12 months preceding the due date of the bid or proposal. c. Once awarded, Contract performance is contingent upon the Contractor's submission of an acceptable Dive Plan, Activity Hazard Analysis, and Emergency Management Plan for the specific diving operation to be conducted. It is the Contractor's responsibility to ensure that all diver credentials and equipment certifications meet the standards outlined in the most recent edition of EM 385-1-1 and NWPR 385-1-93. 1.5 DIVING ENVIRONMENT a. The estimated maximum working depth is approximately 130-135 feet below water surface. b. The estimated maximum depth (distance from water surface to bottom) the diver(s) will be exposed to is approximately 140-145 feet below water surface. c. Turbidity may limit visibility to 10 feet or less. d. The current water velocity through the work area is estimated to be approximately less than 1 knot. e. Water temperature(s) are estimated to vary between 45 and 55 degrees F. f. Underwater operations will not require diver(s) to perform work Page 2 within confined spaces and/or enclosed areas or areas with an overhead. g. The overall work site is a restricted access area and is not open to commercial and private vessels. 1.6 DIVE PLAN AND GENERAL SCHEDULE a. No later than 60 working days prior to the first planned diving operation, the Dive Plan and General Schedule must be submitted to coordinate unit outages at the Project and other concurrent work. The Dive Plan and General Schedule must detail dive locations and must be flexible enough to accommodate conflicts with allowable unit outages. Personnel and equipment certification must be included in the plan. A site specific Emergency Management Plan must be included in the Dive Plan in accordance with NWPR 385-1-93. A job specific Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) must be prepared in accordance with NWPR 385-1-93 and EM 385-1-1, paragraph 01.A.09, and must be included in the Dive Plan. Adjustments must be coordinated with the Contracting Officer (CO). Dive locations and schedules must be submitted in accordance with Section 01 33 00, SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES, for approval. b. Scheduling Individual Dives. The Contractor must notify the CO in writing a minimum of seven calendar days in advance of each scheduled dive. Failure to give the full seven days notice may result in delays to the work if a DSI is not available. The Government is not liable for delays if the Contractor fails to give the required seven days written notice. c. In the event it becomes necessary to cancel or reschedule a dive, the Contractor is required to notify the Government at least two work days prior to the first day of the scheduled dive during normal business hours (Monday through Friday excluding holidays). Failure to provide such notification will make the Contractor liable for the daily rate for the DSI from the date of the cancellation until the dive commences; the Contactor will not be charged for more than seven days delay for each dive cancellation. However, each time a dive is cancelled or rescheduled, it is treated as a new dive for purposes of scheduling DSI's and determining delay costs. When computing delay costs, a partial day is considered a full day; DSI delay costs will be permanently deducted from the Contractor's pay at the rate of $1,000.00 per day.
