inspection methods to find the areas leaking in the Cadet Pool bldg 727and Therapy Pool bldg 700B only. Between both pools at West Point, losing an average of 50K gallons a day. The contractor will conduct underwater inspection and leak detection of the pool
system to locate any leaks and identify any failed concealed pipes responsible for water loses less evaporation. The services shall be provided in accordance with the Scope Of Work Statement (SOW). The customer is the United States Army
Garrison West Point, Directorate of Public Works (USAGWP-DPW). DPW support’s the maintenance of the infrastructure at West Point.

Work Requirements:
Leak detection methods to be used:
*Filter equipment and concealed pipes will be isolated from the pool and balance tank
by many temporary plugs so this portion can be checked for loss independently.
*Balance tank will be isolated from the pool and filter system by temporary plugs so this
portion can be checked for loss independently.
*Pool will be isolated from the filter equipment and balance tank by temporary plugs so
this portion can be checked for loss independently.
*Underwater surfaces will be checked for the acoustic signatures of leaks and flows with
an underwater microphone, particularly around 52 penetrations and many linear feet of
discoloration areas.
*Underwater surfaces of the pool and balance tank will receive an up-close visual
inspection by diving in them and documenting voids and defects. Suspect areas will
receive a dye test that makes a flow of water visible.
*Penetrations in the pool and balance tank will be checked for leakage and defects by
up-close visual inspection and either the dye test or flow test with a cofferdam.
*Concealed pipes below the surface, including the bottom drainpipe, will be tested by
isolating with test plugs and making a very low-pressure non-destructive test by
detecting any flow from the vessel into the pipe.
*Underwater lights and the niche in the pool wall containing them will be tested for any
loss by isolating with a cofferdam and detecting any pressure differential caused by
escaping water.
*Leaks will be documented as to type, location, and approximate rate of loss by written
description and underwater photographs.
NOT IN THIS SCOPE:
*Repair of leaks is not included in this scope.
*If a loss is detected in a concealed pipe, the accessible pipe ends will be identified, but
additional work with other specialized equipment to locate and document break(s) and
hole(s) along the length of the concealed pipe is not in this scope.
