STATEMENT OF WORK:LeConte Ranger Station Materiel Packing/Transport Statement of Objectives The National Park Service (NPS) is removing the LeConte Canyon Ranger Station and replacing it with a new building. The LeConte Ranger Station is located at 8,500' elevation in the Kings Canyon Wilderness at the junction of the John Muir-Pacific Crest Trail and the Bishop Pass Trail. The closest location accessible by motor vehicle is the South Lake Trailhead, 14 miles to the east over Bishop Pass at 12,000' elevation (see maps). (Although Bishop Pass typically opens to livestock travel in mid-July, as of August 2, 2011, it was still not passable to livestock travel due to snow and minor rockfall.) No mechanized or wheeled vehicles are permitted in the wilderness. During the autumn of 2011, the new building foundation is being constructed. In support of this, aggregate, cement, insulated concrete forms (Arxx Blocks), camp gear, food, tools, and other materiel will need to be transported to the site before and during construction. The current project schedule is for the NPS construction crew to move in to start work in the second half of September, 2011. The foundation is to be poured in October. This contract is for packing (transport by non-mechanized means) of 23,000 lbs of materiel to LeConte Ranger Station site. A staging area will be provided where materiel can be stockpiled near LeConte Ranger Station. The staging area is accessible to horse, mule and foot traffic. The NPS will not be able to provide any staging areas in the frontcountry. Materiel to be delivered:- 19,500 lbs will be in plastic-wrapped sacks of aggregate, 260 bags @ 75 lbs each. - The remaining 3,500 lbs will be various construction tools and materials, camp gear, and food: rebar and fasteners, hand tools, Portland cement, small power tools, tents, nonperishable food. No single item will be longer than 5', with the possible exception of shovels. No single item will be heavier than 90 lbs (e.g. a sack of Portland cement).- These amounts are accurate to within 15%. The quote should include a per-pound or per-load rate for amounts above or below the 23,000 lbs itemized above. Aggregate (without cement) will be packaged in 75-lb all-weather plastic bags for transport, and may be stored at the site from contract award until construction is completed. Tools, camp gear and food can also be stored on site. (If food is to be stored on site, the NPS will provide bearproof storage lockers). Cement can only be transported to the site the week before being needed, to prevent water damage. Materials will be purchased by NPS and delivered to a location specified by the contractor.

The 19,500 lbs of aggregate can be delivered to the contractor by August 31, 2011; the remainder of the materiel can be delivered to the contractor by September 19, 2011.
