NAICS: 541330. This synopsis is being issued as Full and Open
Competition. The Forest Service intends to award no more than 4 IDIQ
contracts. The scope of this contract is to implement Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) actions at
abandoned mine sites. These response actions address mine waste and
contamination that is adversely impacting human health and/or the
environment. Abandoned mine sites are not in typical HAZMAT environments.
Mine sites are located in remote area often without radio or cell phone
coverage and in extremely steep terrain. Project accomplishment is
complicated by the limited access to mine sites, which is generally
difficult since most sites are remote and at high elevations. Wildfires in
mine areas can be very dangerous to crews at these sites since there is
only one way out and communications are limited. Snow conditions often hide
mine features such as vertical shafts and make the area slippery and
dangerous. At many sites, the contractor must enter underground workings to
determine flow characteristics of acid mine drainage. Health and safety of
the contractor's employees and government oversight is paramount to
successful completion of the project. Qualified contractors must have
experience with mining processes involving the extraction of metals from
ore bodies and understand the relationship of mine waste and contamination.
The on-the-ground activities at abandoned mine sites may include all of the
following phases: *Abbreviated Preliminary Assessment, *Site
Inspection, *Engineering Evaluation and Cost Analysis, *Removal
Design, *Time-Critical or Non-Time-Critical Removal Action, and *Post-Removal Operations, Maintenance, and Monitoring. CERCLA activities associated with abandoned mines generally are addressed through the
National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (National
Contingency Plan (NCP)), 40 CFR 300. The solicitation process will follow
the requirements of Public Law 92-582 ("Brooks Act") procedures. We
anticipate issuing the solicitation documents within the next 30 days.

and Georgia Department of Natural Resources regulations. 32 CFR 652 and AR
200-1 both mandate that documentation of these evaluations be prepared and
records kept. The estimated price is approximately $108,005.00. 3.
Description of Services: The contractor shall provide all labor,
management, supervision, engineering, tools, equipment, materials,
supplies, services, and transportation for the Savannah monitoring well
Installations in accordance with the attached Scope of Work. 4. Authority
Cited: 10 U.S.C. 2304(d) (1) (B) and FAR 6.302-1(a) (2) (iii). Only one
responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency
requirements. 5. Reason for Authority Cited: Previous contract
W912HN-P-0123 was issued to Miller Drilling Company (MDC) for this work.
One of five required monitoring wells was 90-percent completed under this
contract. The new contract will be a continuation of the original work. MDC
has not de-mobilized from the site and will not charge for de-mob other
than at the completion of all work, which will save the Government
additional costs. In the original solicitation for the previous contract,
MDC was the only bidder that could do the work for a fair and reasonable
cost to the Government. If this work is awarded to another Contractor, they
will not likely take responsibility for completion of the partially
installed well. 6. Awarding a new follow-on contract to MDC, whose
equipment is already on site and has site experience, will result in
substantial cost savings to the government, continuity of services, and
timely acquisition of data critical to the start-up schedule of the
Savannah Harbor Expansion Project. The time involved to wait for a new
contract to be executed would adversely affect the overall project
schedule. 7. Actions to Increase Competition: It is incumbent upon the
Government to ensure project delays and additional costs do not occur.
There is no other source equally qualified to provide the necessary
requirements under the circumstances. The requirement of these services
cannot reasonably be met by another source because of the need to minimize
cost and impact to project schedule. 8. Other Factors: Follow-on Contracts:
This is a follow-on contract with additional requirements based on finding
from the initial contract. In accordance with FAR 6.301-1(a)(2)(iii)(A),
"For DOD, NASA, and the Coast Guard, services may be deemed to be available
only from the original source in the case of follow-on contracts for the
continued provision of highly specialized services when it is likely that
award to any other source would result in (A) Substantial duplication of
cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through
competition or (B) Unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's
requirements."

NAICS: 541380. Biology- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District (NYD) intends to issue an Invitation for Bid (IFB) to award two IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity) contracts for its Operations Division. One contract would be UNRESTRICTED, and the other contract would be 100% Small Business Set-Aside. The IDIQ contracts would consist of the sampling and testing of dredged material following procedures described in the 1992 NYD/EPA Region 2 Regional Testing Manual on Dredged Material Proposed for Ocean Disposal (RTM) (http://www.nan.usace.army.mil/business/buslinks/contract/pdf/guidance.pdf), the 1991 Green Book (www.epa.gov/OWOW/oceans/gbook/index.html), and subsequent updates to these two documents. Task orders would include all or some of the following: sediment and water collection (on contractor supplied ship); sample handling, processing and shipping; physical and biological analyses (e.g., toxicity and bioaccumulation testing and physical analyses); QA/QC procedures, and necessary corrective actions. Reports containing the sampling logs, all testing results and QA/QC information in a format required by the New York District Corps of Engineers would have to be provided by the contractor for each task order. All sampling would be performed within the Port of New York & New Jersey, the length of the Hudson River, in the Atlantic Ocean at the Historic Area Remediation Site (HARS) and its Reference Site, and in Long Island Sound at the Western and/or Central Disposal Sites. A detailed description of work required for these contracts will be provided in its entirety upon issuance of the complete solicitation. Prior to issuance of the solicitation, it is highly recommended that interested parties read both the Green Book and the RTM in order to obtain a thorough understanding of the work required in the NYD/EPA, Region 2 dredged material testing program, including procedures for satisfying Demonstration of Capability (DOC) requirements. The duration of the contracts is one year plus four optional years. One Small Business Set-Aside contract will be awarded to the lowest bidder who has currently (within the last 18 months) demonstrated to NYD and EPA Region 2, through submission of actual data, that they are capable of performing work in our program. A bidder will be considered to have demonstrated they are capable if there is documentation in the NYD/EPA Region 2 dredged material testing progam (within the last 18 months) stating that the laboratory has submitted data that is fully acceptable or acceptable with qualification, or that they have satisfied DOC requirements for the NYD/EPA Region 2 dredged material testing program. This contract will be up to $1,300,000 for the base year and up to $1,000,000 for each of the four option years. A second contract will be awarded on an Unrestricted basis to the next lowest bidder (or to the lowest bidder, if the next lowest bidder was awarded the contract described above). If this bidder has not satisfied DOC requirements for the NYD/EPA Region 2 dredged material testing program, they will have up to one year to obtain a statement from the NYD/EPA Region 2 dredged material testing program indicating that they have submitted data (in the form of either actual project data for evaluation in our program or through the DOC process) that is fully acceptable or acceptable with qualification, or that they have satisfied DOC requirements for the NYD/EPA Region 2 dredged material testing program. This contract will be up to $700,000 for the base year and up to $1,000,000 for each of the four option years. If the contractor does not receive a statement indicating that they have submitted data (in the form of either actual project data for evaluation in our program or through the DOC process) that is fully acceptable or acceptable with qualification, or that they have satisfied DOC requirements for the NYD/EPA Region 2 dredged material testing program, they will be paid only the minimum guarantee of $14,000 and the option years will not be exercised. Individual task orders will be awarded based on several criteria including cost for required analyses, laboratory capacity/availability for the required amount of work, the type of project requiring testing, and the satisfactory and timely completion of previous task orders for performing work for the NYD/EPA Region 2 dredged material testing program.

(FUSRAP) Luckey Site near the Village of Luckey, Wood County, OH. NO AWARD
will be made from this Sources Sought. NO SOLICITATION OR SCOPE OF WORK IS
AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME; therefore, do NOT request a copy of a solicitation.
Potential offerors having the skills and capabilities necessary to perform
the described project are invited to provide feedback via email to
Oksana.Strekha@usace.army.mil. All responses will be used to determine the
appropriate acquisition strategy for a potential future acquisition. We
encourage all firms to respond, including but not limited to, HUB Zone,
8(a), SDVOSB, Small and Large Business. The NAICS Code is 562910. The small
business size is 500 employees. The USACE anticipates issuing an Indefinite
Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Single Award Task Order Contract
(SATOC). Task Orders will vary from Firm-Fixed Price to Cost-Type. The
anticipated IDIQ ordering period is 10-years. Total project magnitude is
estimated at $250-$500 million. 1. SITE DESCRIPTION The Luckey site is
located at the corner of Gilbert and Luckey Roads at 21200 Luckey Road,
northwest of the Village of Luckey in Wood County, Ohio. The Village of
Luckey is 22 miles southwest of Toledo, Ohio. The site encompasses
approximately 40 acres and contains a large production building and
warehouse, two abandoned rail spurs, and several smaller process and
support buildings. The surrounding area west, north, and east of the site
is primarily residential farmland. The site was used for beryllium
processing in support of the national defense program from 1949 to 1961.
Beryl ore (beryllium aluminum silicate); scrap beryllium; and
radiologically contaminated scrap metal were brought to the site during
this period. Records also indicate that beryllium scrap from other
operations was sent to the site that might have been radiologically
contaminated. In 1961 the General Services Administration sold the site to
a privately owned company with the government retaining access rights in
order to remove any remaining beryllium ore. The property changed ownership
several times since 1961 and the most recent transaction involved sale of
the property from Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. (HLI) to Industrial
Properties Recovery, LLC (IPR). IPR refused to close on the sale and was
sued by HLI, who was granted a default judgment transferring the title
(quit claim deed) to IPR, including all environmental liability. The site /
facilities are not currently being used. The Luckey site is included in the
FUSRAP. Contaminants of concern include beryllium, lead, radium-226,
thorium-230, uranium-234, and uranium-238 in soils, sediments, fill
materials, other miscellaneous debris, and groundwater. 2. PROJECT

NAICS: 562211. Savannah River Remediation, LLC (SRR)
is proud to be a member of the Aiken, South Carolina community. We are an
engineering and construction facility with industry-leading
capabilities, experience, and innovations needed to meet the full range of
Liquid Waste (LW) program challenges. PURPOSE: The purpose of this inquiry
is to determine your interest and qualifications as a possible Offeror to
provide all labor, materials, equipment, and facilities necessary to
receive, transport, process, and dispose of low level waste projected to
meet the requirements of Class A and C waste as defined in Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC) Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 10 Part 61.55, Waste Classification, hereinafter referred to as Class A and Class C,
respectively. SRR will use the information obtained in your response to
this Expression of Interest (EOI) to determine your firm's ability and
interest in performing this service. This EOI is for INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES
ONLY. 1.0 SCOPE 1.1. General Description of the Service The Subcontractor
shall receive low level waste that is projected to meet the requirements
for Class A and Class C wastes (as defined in Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 10 Part 61.55, Waste
Classification; hereinafter referred to as Class A and Class C waste),
process them into a suitable waste form (i.e., treat the waste), and
properly dispose of the waste form product at an appropriate facility.
Volumes to be processed are described in this Statement of Work (SOW). If
the Subcontractor cannot meet a requirement stated in this SOW as written,
the Subcontractor is encouraged to note any exceptions they would like to
take to this SOW and propose recommendations. Exceptions and
recommendations will be evaluated by Savannah River Remediation (SRR) as
part of the review process to determine Subcontractor's capability. 1.2.
Background Decontaminated Salt Solution (DSS) is the liquid effluent
product after reduction of radioactive concentrations of strontium,
actinides (primarily uranium and plutonium), and cesium from salt waste at
the Savannah River Site (SRS). The quantity of DSS to be processed will
increase from 2012 to 2018. The current production rate of up to 2.5
million gallons per year (M gal/yr) of Class C waste will remain constant
until 2014. In late 2014, the waste stream will become a Class A waste and
the volume will increase to up to 8.8 M gal/yr by 2015. By late 2018, the
rate will increase to up to 10.1 M gal/yr of Class A waste and remain
fairly constant until 2028. SRS currently treats the DSS and disposes of
the final waste form on site in the State-permitted Saltstone Disposal
Facility (SDF). The treatment facility consists of two segments: *Saltstone Production Facility (SPF) receives and treats DSS to produce solidified saltstone. *SDF consists of concrete disposal units used
for the final disposal of the solidified saltstone. Saltstone is a grout
waste form created through the mixing of DSS with a dry mix containing
blast furnace slag, fly ash, and cement to reduce the mobility of selected
hazardous constituents. Saltstone is intended to stabilize both hazardous
chemicals and radionuclides. 3.0 WORK REQUIREMENTS 3.1. Task Requirements
The work shall consist of the following three (3) phases: *Phase 1 -
Proof of Subcontractor capability. *Phase 2 - Treatment of all or part
of Class C generated waste prior to generation of Class A waste. *Phase 3 - Treatment of all or part of Class A generated waste. All products produced in the three (3) phases must meet applicable State and Federal
regulations. The Subcontractor shall be solely responsible for treatment
and disposal activities with no SRR or DOE oversight once the waste is
jurisdictionally accepted by the Subcontractor. This includes any
interactions with State and Federal regulatory agencies. A Detailed "Expression of Interest" (EOI) is available upon request. In the event the bidder has questions relating to the EOI, statement of work details, or
submission requirements, such questions should be submitted in writing to the SRR Procurement Specialist on or before Close of Business (COB - 5:00 P.M. EST) on May 3, 2012. It is anticipated that if the service referenced in this EOI develops into a future procurement action, the end result will be a fixed unit-price subcontract. Following a formal Request for Proposal (RFP), a single subcontract is planned; however, SRR reserves the right to make
multiple awards. Award will be made to the Offeror(s) whose proposal best conforms to any
resultant RFP and is determined by SRR to be the best value, technical approach and price
considered. If you do not plan to submit a response, a brief letter indicating your lack of interest and reasons
would be appreciated. If no response is received by the established submission date, SRR will
assume that you have no interest in participating in this procurement. EOI PROPOSALS (2 HARD COPIES, 1 ELECTRONIC) WILL BE RECEIVED BY SRR THROUGH COB (5:00 P.M. EST) ON MAY 31, 2012.

NAICS: 561990. THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT ONLY AND NOT A
REQUEST FOR TECHNICAL PROPOSAL OR SOLICITATION FOR BID. The Naval Special
Warfare Command detachment Annapolis is identifying potential sources
possessing the capabilities, experience, and expertise necessary for a
potential new business opportunity involving the disposition of obsolete
and unserviceable submersible craft components through sales contract(s).
The purpose of this sources sought is to gain knowledge of the potential
sales buyers who show an interest in competing and performing a sales
contract. This notice is for information and planning purposes only and is
not to be construed as a commitment by the government. The government will
not pay for the information. Potential sources are being sought to
demilitarize U.S. Armed Forces submersible craft components and disposal
through recovering and recycling resulting (potentially high value) scrap
or residue. Demilitarization (DEMIL) is the act of destroying military
offensive or defensive advantages inherent in certain types of equipment or
material. The disposal process may include disposal of hazardous waste,
drain and purge of petroleum, oils and lubricants (POL), and removal of
other potentially hazardous materials such as composites, and coolants.
Disposal is defined as the end of life tasks or actions for residual
materials resulting from demilitarization or disposition operations. All
residues from scrapping operations will be removed and disposed of by the
sales contractor in accordance with Federal, State and local regulations.
This synopsis is to determine the feasibility of using a sales contract
methodology to handle the disposal solutions of craft assets and identify
potential buyers that are interested in scrapping and recovering resulting
material. Prospective sales contractors must have the knowledge and
technical expertise of all Federal, State, and Local environmental
requirements that would allow for safe demilitarization, scrapping and
recycling. The U.S. Armed Forces estimate for FY 12 is approximately one
craft. The majority of the craft will be located at, but not limited to,
Hanover, MD, Portsmouth, NH, and Pearl City, HI. A potential competitive
sales contract offering could result for this craft. Potential components
offered for sale may be sold individually in one time contracts or in lots
on term contracts, depending on the type and quantity of component and
location. Advertisements will be posted in Federal Business Opportunities.
DLA Disposition Services uses a two-step process. In the first step of the
process, interested bidders will respond to a Request for Technical
Proposal (RFTP) whereby they explain their scrap operation and hazardous
material program based on the Government's requirements. In step two,
potential bidders whose proposal has been determined acceptable by DLA
Disposition Services are then invited to submit a bid. The highest
responsive/responsible bidder is awarded a contract. This sources sought
announcement is not a Request for Technical Proposal nor should it be
construed as an obligation on the part of the Government regarding the
disposal method selected for this craft. The Government will not reimburse
for any costs associated with preparing or submitting a response to this
announcement. All interested sources must respond separately to future
solicitations to this announcement. Any response from potential offers to
this announcement shall be limited to 15 pages and must include the
following information: *Name, Address, Phone Number, Point of Contact and
e-mail address. *A description of your company's experience and
capabilities for Demilitarization Disposal of hazardous materials,
Recovery/recycling of scrap residue, and Safety and environmental compliance
with disposal. *Describe your capability to provide personnel, equipment,
and operations to support the disposal in various locations throughout the
United States. *Describe your usual contract type, terms, and conditions.
*Include an assessment of feasibility of using a sales contract
methodology that is inclusive of meeting demilitarization, removal and/or
remediation of hazardous materials, and subsequent recycling of residue.
*Include at least 3 examples where the offeror demonstrated the capability
to execute the requirements of comparable work within the last 5 years.
*Offerors should include a brief description of each project, customer name,
customer satisfaction and timeliness of the performance. POTENTIAL OFFERORS
ARE ENCOURAGED TO SUBMIT THE ABOVE INFORMATION NO LATER THAN 23 SEPTEMBER
2012, 1500 EST. Submissions should be sent to ETC Keith Crider, NSWC

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), Office of Acquisition Management, is conducting a sources sought to determine whether small socioeconomic businesses exist to support Assessing Impacts of Nitrogen Deposition across Large Spatial Gradients. The Statement of Work (SOW) for this requirement can be found with the notice at FBO.gov. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 541620 - Environmental Consulting Services. INTERESTED PARTIES WHO FEEL THEY CAN MEET THE SOW REQUIREMENTS MAY SUBMIT WRITTEN CAPABILITY STATEMENTS, NOT TO EXCEED 5 PAGES, OUTLINING THEIR CAPABILITY NO LATER THAN 2:00 PM EST ON APRIL 27, 2012. The capability statements will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining if the small business community can perform the services of this requirement. The Government must ensure there is adequate competition among the potential pool of available small businesses. Submit responses via email to Harold Honegger at honegger.harold@epa.gov. This is not a Request for Quote. No solicitation is available at this time. STATEMENT OF WORK: TITLE: Assessing Impacts of Nitrogen Deposition across Large Spatial Gradients. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: Award to April 30, 2014. I. PURPOSE: The purpose of this research is to assess the environmental impacts from nitrogen deposition across large scale gradients in the United States. II. BACKGROUND: NCEA's Global Change Research Program (GCRP) is an assessment oriented research program. The NCEA GCRP assesses the potential consequences of global change on human health, the environment, and the economy of the United States. The NCEA GCRP assists local, state, regional, and national managers and decision makers to respond to such consequences by understanding vulnerabilities and evaluating adaptation options for protecting ecosystems, resources, and human health. Nitrogen (N) deposition is a prominent global change factor that currently stresses ecosystems and the services people extract from them. Terrestrial plant biodiversity in particular has been identified as a sensitive ecological end point. Recent work has identified initial estimates of the critical loads for N-induced species declines (Pardo et al. 2011a, Pardo et al. 2011b), which suggests that vast areas of the US may be losing or already have lost species. Whether this is actually occurring over large spatial scales has not been determined in the US, though confirmation has been found in Europe (Maskell et al. 2010, Stevens et al. 2004, Stevens et al. 2010). Work over the past year within EPA/ORD/NCEA has identified hot spots where these impacts may have occurred; and, it is the intention of this SOW to assess these projections for target areas in the US. III. CONTRACTOR TASKS: This research covers a variety of tasks that include identification and assessment of candidate deposition gradients across the US, a literature review of available data along candidate gradients, selection of a few gradients (3 or less) for further analysis that meet agreed upon criteria, establishing monitoring sites along selected gradient(s), data collection for agreed upon environmental end points, analysis of the resulting data, and writing up of the results as a journal article (one or two). This purchase order has two Phases: Phase 1 comprises of Tasks 1-3 and optional Phase 2 comprises of Tasks 4-5. Provided that satisfactory progress is made on Phase 1 as determined by satisfactory completion of the deliverables for Tasks 1-3, and resources are available, optional Phase 2 will be exercised.

NAICS: 541620. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Enforcement, Permitting and Assistance (REPA) 5 Region 7 Small Business Set-Aside. PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS: THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION. The purpose of this synopsis is to notify potential offerors of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Acquisition Management's (OAM's) intent to issue a competitive small business set-aside solicitation to provide technical support services to the EPA Regions 7. The contracts will support EPA activities, as well as EPA coordinated efforts with states, tribes and other Federal agencies, at private, state and federal facilities, Indian Country, U.S. Territories, along the United States international borders, and further abroad. Under the authority of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and in cooperation with EPA's state and tribal partners, EPA manages a hazardous waste program, an underground storage tank program, and a solid waste program, including development of waste reduction strategies such as recycling. The goals of the RCRA program are to: 1) Protect human health and the environment from the hazards posed by waste disposal; 2) Conserve energy and natural resources through waste recycling and recovery; 3) Reduce or eliminate the amount of waste generated, including hazardous waste; and 4) Ensure that waste is managed in an environmentally safe manner. The activities required under this contract will support the RCRA goals cited above and other programs or related Agency initiatives. RCRA is the result of several laws. Congress passed the Solid Waste Disposal Act (SWDA) in 1965. This statute provided the basis for regulating the proper management of solid waste. The SWDA went through several major amendments resulting in the RCRA of 1976. The Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) in 1984 and the Federal Facilities Compliance Act of 1992 have also amended RCRA. To achieve RCRA program goals, four distinct yet interrelated programs exist under RCRA. Subtitle D of RCRA promotes and encourages the environmentally sound management of solid waste. It includes minimum Federal technical standards and guidelines for state solid waste plans. Subtitle C establishes a management system that regulates hazardous waste from the time it is generated until its ultimate disposal, in effect, from "cradle to grave." Subtitle I regulates petroleum products and hazardous substances (as defined under Superfund) that are stored in underground tanks. It establishes performance standards for new tanks and requires leak detection, prevention and corrective action at underground tank sites. Subtitle J regulates medical waste generation, treatment, destruction, and disposal. In conjunction with achieving the RCRA program goals, other programs or related Agency initiatives may be addressed within this performance work statement. This includes the following programs and initiatives: Clean Air Act (CAA), Clean Water Act (CWA), Toxic Substance and Control Act (TSCA), Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC), Pollution Prevention (P2), National Environmental Performance Track (NEPT), Environmental Management Systems (EMS), Border 2012, Environmental Justice (EJ), National Environmental Justice Advisory Committee (NEJAC), Community Based Environmental Protection (CBEP), Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know (EPCRA), RCRA Brownfields, and other new initiatives and special programs. It is the Government's intent to award a Time-and-Materials, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract from this solicitation through a small business set-aside. The Government will issue task orders from the resulting contract. The anticipated ordering period includes a twelve (12) month Base Period, and four (4), twelve (12) month option periods with a maximum potential ordering period totaling sixty (60) months. The NAICS code for this acquisition is 541620, Environmental Consulting Services, with a size standard of $7 Million. This is not a request for submission of proposals. THE SOLICITATION FOR THIS PROCUREMENT IS ANTICIPATED TO BE RELEASED ON OR ABOUT MAY 1, 2012 WITH AN AWARD ANTICIPATED ON OR ABOUT JULY 15, 2012. The closing response date will be 30 calendar days after issuance of the solicitation. This procurement will be conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15 - Contracting by Negotiation. The contract award will be made using a best value approach, with technical capability being of greater importance than cost or price. The synopsis, amendments, and other information related to this procurement as well as any subsequent procurement notifications will be posted on FBO.gov and the EPA website, at http://www.epa.gov/oam/srpod/index.htm.

NAICS: 562910. Statement of Work for Tonopah Test Range Preliminary Investigation Activities. A. PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION. Introduction: This statement of work is for services to be provided by an Unexploded Ordinance (UXO) Subcontractor to support preliminary investigation (PI) activities conducted by Navarro-Intera (NI) at the Tonopah Test Range (TTR) in Nevada. The services include a visual surveillance of the PI work area including identification of potential unexploded ordnance / munitions and explosives of concern (UXO/MEC), determination of UXO/MEC type, and implementation of the necessary safety measures required to conduct remaining PI activities. All UXO/MEC or suspected UXO/MEC discovered during performance of the survey will be flagged and the location recorded via global positioning system (GPS). UXO/MEC or suspected UXO/MEC shall not be excavated, relocated, removed, disposed, treated or detonated during PI activities. The TTR is located approximately 235 miles (mi) northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada. The preliminary investigation sites are 2-3 square miles each and consist of Corrective Action Unit (CAU) 411 (Double Tracks), CAU 412 (Clean Slate I), CAU 413 (Clean Slate II), and CAU 414 (Clean Slate III), as well as some smaller outlying support areas. The Double Tracks and Clean Slate sites were utilized by the U.S. Department of Energy to perform plutonium (Pu) dispersion tests in the early 1960s. Each of the sites is presently posted as "Contamination Area" due to Pu-contaminated surface and subsurface soils. The sites are located on or near former and active U.S. Air Force bombing ranges. 1.0 Scope: The purpose of this statement of work is to perform visual and magnetometer surveys for suspect UXO/MEC under the direction of NI at the Tonopah Test Range in Nevada. UXO personnel shall visually inspect each work area for surface UXO/MEC items in conjunction with performance of radiological surveys by NI Radiological Control Technicians (RCTs). UXO/MEC and suspect UXO/MEC items present within the survey area will be evaluated, identified, and flagged by UXO Technicians. UXO personnel shall identify and tag waypoint coordinates of each located UXO/MEC item using NI-provided GPS units, UXO personnel shall record location, type/identification of UXO/MEC item, quantity, and any other important information in the Subcontractor daily log. It is anticipated that most UXO/MEC will be flagged and the location recorded for future removal/demilitarization (by others), however, if the UXO/MEC is determined to be an imminent hazard, the item's location shall be recorded, and UXO personnel shall evacuate all site personnel to a safe distance. NI anticipates that one UXO/MEC Senior UXO Supervisor (SUXOS) and one UXO/MEC Technician II are required to support PI activities. The UXO Subcontractor will utilize subcontractor -provided hand held analog magnetometers capable of detecting UXO/ MEC to a minimum depth of 1.0 ft bgs to assist in location and identification of buried/partially buried UXO/MEC. Preliminary investigation activities may include collection of soil samples by NI personnel. The UXO Subcontractor will ensure all sampling locations (surface and subsurface) areas are clear of MEC prior to allowing NI personnel to collect soil. UXO personnel shall investigate an existing known MEC item (previously identified as an Honest John rocket) located at the Clean Slate III site. UXO personnel shall develop a written recommendation/plan for future removal/demo in place of this MEC item. The work will be performed under the direct supervision of NI personnel. The NI Site Supervisor will have responsibility and authority for daily operations, work authorization through Plan of the Day (POD) meetings, and will direct the operations of the UXO Subcontractor. All site activities on the TTR will be coordinated through the NI Site Supervisor with assistance of the Subcontractor Senior UXO Supervisor. 2.0 Safety: The scope of work includes access to areas known or suspected to contain UXO/MEC. The UXO Subcontractor must comply with DOE Manual 440.1-1A, DOE Explosives Safety Manual, along with NI established hazard analyses, work planning and control processes. The UXO Subcontractor will work within the established NI safety envelope based on the requirements contained in the NI Worker Safety and Health Program (10 CFR 851) and Integrated Safety Management System (ISMS) Program. The UXO Subcontractor will be required to work under the approved TTR Preliminary Investigations Site-Specific Health and Safety Plan (SSHASP). The NI SSHASP will describe general work hazards and controls including potential occupational safety and health hazards associated with UXO/MEC surface clearance and planned preliminary investigation activities. 3.0 Minimum Training and Qualifications: Prior to arrival onsite, the UXO Subcontractor shall be responsible for certifying that their employees meet the requirements of pre-assignment training, consistent with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1910.120 paragraph (e). Documentation certifying that each site worker has received 40 hours of HAZWOPER instruction, including current 8 hour refresher will be provided to NI. Field personnel will be required to comply with the medical, requirements specified in 29 CFR 1910.120(f). UXO field personnel may also be required to wear full face respiratory protection, and shall provide evidence of fitness for respirator use per 29 CFR 1910.134. Entry into posted radiologically controlled Contamination Areas, and High Contamination Areas is anticipated. UXO personnel will be required to obtain a Radiological Worker II qualification (training provided by NI), and wear respiratory protection (full face respirator). Approximately 40 hours of field On-The-Job-Training (OJT) will be provided to UXO field staff prior to mobilization to the TTR. Personnel will be mobilized to the National Nuclear Security Site (NNSS) or other location to be determined, for observation and practice of work skills (e.g., Radiation Worker II, site access, etc), prior to mobilization to the TTR. 4.0 Deliverables: The UXO Subcontractor shall provide a copy of their Corporate Health and Safety Program, and Quality Assurance/Quality Control Program Plan, including Training and Qualification Plans with proposal. The UXO Subcontractor shall, on a daily basis, provide the NI Site Supervisor with the following: 1) A summary (log of activities) of that day's activities and results (e.g., UXO/ MEC identified including type and quantity, and GPS coordinates of UXO/MEC). 2) An electronic data file containing GPS coordinates for UXO/MEC and other items or features of concern identified during that day's activities. Prior to project closeout, UXO subcontractor shall provide a written plan for removal/demilitarization of the existing Honest John rocket located at the Clean Slate III site. The plan shall include the Subcontractor recommendations and procedures for removal and demilitarization or demolition in place of the Honest John rocket, including personnel and equipment requirements, estimates for donor explosives, and costs. 5.0 Equipment: The UXO Subcontractor shall provide the necessary equipment, supplies, and material to safely execute the described activities with the exception of project vehicles, GPS units, and on-site communication devices.

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) is the primary review agency and consults with EPA Region V. We expect written comments from WDNR on the draft final FS they receive for review. Any changes resulting from WDNR comments and written responses to comment will be included in/with the final version of the FS. The FS on the Settling Ponds area will be addressed in a report containing final remedy selection, expected by May 2012. All work shall be completed on or before September 30, 2012. The contractor shall make a minimum of two visits to BAAAP for meetings and/or presentations.

NAICS: 541620. THIS IS A PRESOLICITATION NOTICE ONLY. THE ACTUAL SOLICITATION SHALL BE AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD ON OR ABOUT APRIL 27, 2012, AT THE FOLLOWING WEBSITE: http://epa.gov/oam/cinn_cmd/. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Water (OW), Office of Science and Technology (OST), Engineering and Analysis Division (EAD) requires contractor support to provide environmental engineering support for clean water regulations. Specifically, the contractor will be required to provide support in the following areas: technical and analytical support; cost and benefit analysis; programmatic support including document preparation; review of public comments and peer review; litigation technical support; database management; support in chemical analytical methods and toxicity tests relating to the requirements of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and other related mandates; multimedia analysis; and implementation of effluent limitations guidelines (ELGs) and standards including compliance and enforcement to the OW/OST/EAD in support of the Agency's requirements relative to the provisions of the CWA. This environmental engineering support is expected to i nclude professional program managers, engineers, scientists, technicians and administrative services with experience in CWA regulations, industrial wastewater treatment and monitoring and pollution prevention technologies. Due to the nature of the Performance Work Statement (PWS) requirements, it is anticipated that Offerors with the expertise to perform these services could also have relationships (including a parent/subsidiary/sister company affiliation or an existing contract relationship) which presents a potential significant organizational conflict of interest (OCOI). It is EPA's contention that a significant OCOI would exist if award were to be made to entities within the following groups: 1) Entities that discharge processed water, or provide treatment of wastewater or drinking water; 2) Entities that manufacture/sell/import water treatment chemicals and/or equipment (including point-of-use/point-of-entry treatment devices);3) Entities that provide advisory and/or technical services relating to waste minimization, waste management, and wastewater treatment and control; 4) Entities acting in a consulting, advisory, or legal capacity with, or for, organizations trying to overturn or circumvent the regulations which are the intended outcome of this contract; and/or 5) Entities that own or operate industrial and/or community water systems. The solicitation shall also include the clause entitled LIMITATION OF FUTURE CONTRACTING (LOFC) (Headquarters Support), (EPAAR 1552.209-74) (APR 2004), (Alt V). Paragraph (c) which states in part, "The contractor and any subcontractors, during the life of this contract plus five years beyond the life of this contract, shall be ineligible to enter into business or financial relationships which would support or affect any efforts to contest, oppose, or influence the contents of regulations, policies, limitations, standards or criteria relating to the Clean Water Act (CWA); the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA); the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended; the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1986 (CERCLA); the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA); or the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act of 1988 (FIFRA), for which it has provided, is providing, or has work assignments to provide technical and administrative support under this contract, without prior written authorization from the cognizant EPA contracting officer." Be advised, however, that the afore-mentioned limitations may change when the RFP is released. The Government anticipates award of a cost-plus-fixed-fee (CPFF) contract with a total level of effort of 250,000 hours (if all option quantities are exercised) over an ordering period of five (5) years. The solicitation will be issued on a full and open competitive basis. The applicable NAICS code is 541620 with a size standard of $14 million. It is anticipated that the solicitation will be available on or about April 27, 2012, on the Cincinnati Procurement Operations Division (CPOD) Contracts website located at http://epa.gov/oam/cinn_cmd/ (under Solicitations and Amendments) with a closing date on or about May 31, 2012. Anticipated award date of the resultant contract is no later than September 26, 2012. Interested parties are expected to download the solicitation and any subsequent amendments from the website and to monitor the status of the solicitation for changes or updates.
