TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR WATERSHED DATABASES (PRESOL)
SOL AB133C-09-RP-0004A POC: Sharon S. Kent, (206) 526-6035, E-MAIL:
sharon.s.kent@noaa.gov NAICS: 541990. NOTE: This notice was previously advertised as
a Sources Sought citing No. AB133C-09-RP-0004. This notice serves as an intent to
procure technical support to NOAA, Office of Response & Restoration (ORR), through the
Assessment and Restoration Division (ARD), on an as-needed basis. The objective of this
contract is to support the maintenance, application, and development of NOAA's
environmental databases, which serve as a repository for environmental sediment
chemistry, tissue residue chemistry, and sediment toxicity data. These databases have
three general applications: 1) to serve as an integral component of NOAA's Watershed
Database and Mapping Projects, 2) to support site-specific investigations, including
evaluations of risk or injury to NOAA resources, derivation of cleanup goals, and
evaluations of remedial alternatives at hazardous waste sites or spills, and 3) to provide
the foundation for conducting specialized analyses, such as exploring innovative
approaches for the evaluation of sediment chemistry and toxicity data and developing new
guidelines for screening sediments in support of risk assessments. The goal of NOAA's
Watershed Database and Mapping Projects is to collect, summarize, and graphically
display the available information on sources of contamination, sediment chemistry,
observed biological effects, contaminants in biological tissue, habitat and natural resource
information, and information on potential habitat restoration projects for key watersheds of
interest to NOAA. These databases share a common relational database structure, which
includes surface and subsurface sediment chemistry, tissue chemistry, and sediment toxicity
data. The Contractor shall develop tools, procedures, and forms for reporting, record
keeping, and program management. In general, the Contractor shall be responsible for
performing the following tasks: Task A: Management of watershed databases The
Contractor shall maintain and manage multiple large relational databases in Microsoft
Visual FoxPro in support of this task. In support of NOAA's approximately 15-20 watershed
database and mapping projects, new data must be added to these databases at frequent
intervals, often with rapid turnaround time required. The new data may originate in a variety
of electronic formats, which must be translated and imported into the watershed database
structure. The contractor shall be responsible for 1) conducting a high level of QA/QC
review on each new data set to make certain that the imported data match the original data
provided and to identify potential problems (e.g., missing values, inconsistent units, or
outliers) with the original data and 2) developing documentation for each dataset (e.g.,
project source, analytic methods, coordinate data projection and datum, and other critical
data elements, as well as detailed records on changes and data treatment decisions). The
contractor shall also be required to 3) develop or refine automated systems for importing
and checking data added to the existing databases, which are maintained in Microsoft
Visual FoxPro format. Because each of the approximately 20 watershed databases has
the identical relational database structure, the contractor shall be responsible for 4)
maintaining consistency of the common dictionary files as an essential aspect of the
database management. The contractor will need to 5) develop or assist in developing
database programs and procedures to query the database for a variety of uses, including
tabular and graphical presentations, and create output in specific formats for export to
mapping programs, such as ArcGIS. Task B: Database queries and specialized analyses.
The contractor shall 1) develop database queries and reports to meet a variety of objectives
relating to the watershed databases, site- or regional-specific investigations, or specialized
analyses such as the evaluation of the relationship of sediment chemistry to sediment
toxicity. This will require the contractor to 2) generate of a wide variety of specialized
queries and data outputs, often with little advance notice. Most of these queries and
analyses will be conducted on NOAA/ARD standard watershed databases, but analyses
of external environmental databases in a variety of structures and formats will be required.
The contractor shall also conduct statistical analyses, such as the determination of
significant difference between toxicity test samples and control or reference samples. Task
C: Development of database tools and applications NOAA's ARD worked with EPA's Great
Lakes National Program Office (GLNPO) and EPA Region 1 on a database project to make
it easier for external users to put data into the relational database structure compatible with
the Query Manager application. As part of this ongoing project, NOAA developed
automated tools to both import data from pre-defined data templates and to conduct quality
assurance checks on imported data. To support this activity, the Contractor shall continue
development of this application, which includes a variety of screens, forms, and queries
using Microsoft Access. The Contractor shall also provide maintenance and potential future
development of this system, including linking of the imported data to the FoxPro watershed
database. Water chemistry data associated with ecological exposures to hazardous
substance sites is not currently managed in Query Manager. The Contractor may need to
develop a parallel structure for managing water data, manage the data, and conduct queries
for ecological assessment, remediation, and restoration. Natural resource damage
assessments spill response data has not previously been tracked or managed in Query
Manager. The Contractor shall be required to develop a consistent approach for sample
tracking, including chain of custody information, developing electronic field sample data
collection forms, developing electronic data deliverables (EDD) for laboratory analyses,
developing methods for automating import of lab EDDs and associated field data into
standard structures compatible with Query Manager, developing a structure for managing
and providing data in a form to facilitate electronic data validation. Task D: Database
application and data management training The Contractor shall 1) provide training in the
use of both existing and newly developed data tools, templates, and data translation
applications. The contractor shall 2) conduct general or project-specific database training.
Experience : NOAA is seeking firms with experience in the development and management
of large environmental databases that include sediment chemistry, tissue chemistry, and
sediment toxicity data. Key personnel shall have a minimum of 5 years experience
managing, designing, and developing environmental databases and database applications
using (1) Microsoft FoxPro or Microsoft Visual FoxPro and (2) Microsoft Access.
Technician(s) shall have a minimum 3 years technical experience in Microsoft
FoxPro/Microsoft Visual FoxPro and Microsoft Access and a minimum 3 years experience
with contaminant and waste site data, including environmental sediment chemistry, tissue
contaminant-residue chemistry, and environmental contaminant toxicity data. All tasks
require a high level of documented environmental database management expertise and
programming experience in both Microsoft FoxPro (and/or Microsoft Visual FoxPro) and
Microsoft Access. This work may be performed from any location in the continental United
States, but the Contractor will be required to meet technical staff in Seattle (WA) on a
periodic basis (e.g., 3-4 times / year). Training of regional staff in coastal EPA regional
offices, including the Great Lakes, in the use of the database tools may also be required.
The environmental data included in the watershed databases will originate from studies
conducted primarily in coastal areas of the United States, territories, and protectorates. It is
anticipated that a firm-fixed price, labor hour or time-and-material task order IDIQ type
contract will be awarded with a base 12-month period and four one-year option periods. The
North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) is 541990 with a size standard of
$7 M. All contractors doing business with the Government are now required to be registered
with the Central Contractor Registry (CCR). No award can be made unless the vendor is
registered in CCR. For additional information and to register in CCR please access the

under the IDC will be issued primarily under firm-fixed price task orders utilizing the labor
and overhead rates accepted with award of the IDC. The estimated base and option year
contract capacities are $24.5M, $24M, $15M, $15M and $11.5M respectively. Contract
options may be exercised early if the contract capacity is utilized before the contract
performance period expires. However, the contract rates do not increase until the annual
period for which they were negotiated has elapsed. If capacity remains available at the
expiration of any contract performance period and the Government determines it to be in
its best interest to exercise the next contract option period, the unused capacity will be
rolled forward for use in the subsequent contract performance period. The annual rates for
the then-current contract period will become effective for both the unused capacity of the
previous period and the current annual capacity. The annual contract rates are fixed prices
for the annual period for which they are negotiated and shall not be adjusted as a result of
the early exercise of contract options or when unused capacity is rolled forward to
subsequent option years. The contract minimum guarantee of $10,000 may be obligated
via issuance of an initial task order concurrent with award of the IDC. The IDC is anticipated
to be awarded in February of 2009. All other than small business concerns will be required
to include a Subcontracting Plan with its rate proposal. The subcontracting plan must
comply with the provisions of the Small Business Act (Public Law 95-507), FAR Subpart

Small Business 7.0%, HUBZone Small Business 9.8%, Veteran-Owned Small Business
3.0%, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business 0.9%. In addition, the total
goal for subcontracting to small businesses for this IDC is 20% of the contract amount.
The accepted subcontracting plan is anticipated to meet or exceed the FY08 USACE
targets for small business subcontracting. The FY08 USACE targets may be adjusted if
new targets for FY09 are established by USACE prior to contract award. The Contracting
Officer will negotiate a subcontracting plan with the selected A-E contractor with the

issued through firm-fixed price task orders utilizing the labor and overhead rates accepted
with award of the IDC. The estimated base and option year contract capacity is $2M each
period. Contract options may be exercised early if the contract capacity is utilized before the
contract performance period expires. However, the contract rates do not increase until the
annual period for which they were negotiated has elapsed. If capacity remains available at
the expiration of any contract performance period and the Government determines it to be
in its best interest to exercise the next contract option period, the unused capacity will be
rolled forward for use in the subsequent contract performance period. The annual rates for
the then-current contract period will become effective for both the unused capacity of the
previous period and the current annual capacity. The annual contract rates are fixed prices
for the annual period for which they are negotiated and shall not be adjusted as a result of
the early exercise of contract options or when unused capacity is rolled forward to
subsequent option years. The contract minimum guarantee of $10,000 may be obligated
via issuance of an initial task order concurrent with award of the IDC. The IDC is anticipated
to be awarded in February of 2009. The North American Industry Classification System
(NAICS) code for this action is 541330 which has a size standard of $4,500,000.00 in
average annual receipts. To be eligible for contract award, a firm must be registered in the
DoD Central Contractor Registration (CCR). Register via the CCR Internet site at
http://www.ccr.gov/. In accordance with FAR Subpart 36.209, no contract for any follow-on
construction work shall be awarded to the firm that designed the project or its subsidiaries
or affiliates. PROJECT INFORMATION: The proposed contract will be used to primarily
support the USACE mission in performing cost engineering services, but may also be used
to support other federal agencies such as the US Department of Energy, Office of
Environmental Management (DOE), the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA),
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the General Services Administration (GSA),
Bureau of Reclamation, US Forest Service, and the Department of Transportation (DOT).
Typical projects will include cost engineering services for environmental restoration, waste
management, decontamination and decommissioning design, regulatory support,
confirmatory sampling, liquid waste site remediation, waste site remediation, burial ground
remediation, deactivation, demolition, site security, waste operations, surveillance and
maintenance, project management and management controls, miscellaneous restoration,
stewardship preparation, independent closure reviews, operate and close utilities
confirmatory sampling sites, and contingency review and escalation. The proposed IDC will
support USACE mission in performing cost environmental cleanup, demolition and/or
restoration. The magnitude of the task orders may range from $3,000 to $2 million. The
selected A-E firm must be capable of performing cost estimates for multiple customers with
a wide variety of sites across the nation in a manner that complies with Federal, State and
Local regulations and laws within timeframes required to meet program objectives. As a

the next response date for Phase I submittals. PHASE I SUBMITTALS ARE DUE NO
LATER THAN 4:00 PM CST, 8 DECEMBER 2008. The process is the same as originally
stated in the March 27, 2008 announcement. A technical point of contact is provided, Ms.
Erica Becvar, AFCEE/TDV, 210-536-4314, e-mail erica.becvar@brooks.af.mil. This
announcement constitutes a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the Air Force Center
for Engineering and the Environment (AFCEE), Restoration Branch, Technology Transfer
Office (TDV) under FAR 6.102(d)(2). This announcement is open for one year and will be
advertised annually. This announcement seeks out technologies and methodologies to
reduce environmental impacts from current and past Air Force (AF) operations and apply
to Air Force installations worldwide. The key focus of this effort is to further develop
demonstration/field-tested remediation, contaminated site characterization and monitoring,
and pollution prevention technologies and methodologies that serve as an innovative
means to save money and time while achieving compliance with all air, soil, and water
regulatory requirements and Air Force policies and technical guidance. The goal is to
identify more technically advanced, efficient, effective, environmentally friendly, and
cost-effective solutions than are currently available. Such technologies and methodologies
should aid the US Air Force in reaching the remedy-in-place (RIP) goal of 2012 or
optimizing current remediation or monitoring systems already in place. The purpose of this
acquisition is to apply promising demonstration/field-tested innovative technologies and
methodologies. This acquisition is not to test theoretical concepts or technologies and
methodologies that currently exist solely in a laboratory research and development (R&D)
phase. The remedial technologies areas of interest include, but are not limited to, effective
dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) characterization, monitoring, fate and transport,
detection, and remediation; improve/optimize remediation and long-term monitoring (LTM)
technologies; assessment and mitigation of hazards associated with vapor intrusion;
remedial techniques and methods to more effectively treat soil and groundwater
contaminated with chlorinated solvents; implementation of rapid site characterization
through definitive field-based analytical methods for volatile organic compounds (VOCs),
semi VOCs, and other common contaminants. Additional areas of interest include
innovative pollution prevention techniques, innovative site characterization approaches
and tools, new and innovative quality assurance methodologies, and innovative monitoring
and optimization systems for existing remediation operations (e.g., pump-and-treat)
including sensors and data management systems. Proposal submittal is a two-phase
process. Phase I Offerors submit proposals by completing a short questionnaire on the
AFCEE BAA web page developed specifically to facilitate proposal submittal in the BAA
program. The requested information includes: description of the technology (synonymous
with methodology, as applicable) being proposed and a discussion of the technical benefits
to include the type of site and specific problem addressed; contamination and media
treated; description of how project supports the Remedy-in-Place (RIP)/Response
Complete (RC) Goal of 2012; qualifications of the offeror; estimated cost range of the
demonstration/field testing of the technology; and approximated time to complete the
proposed effort. Limits to the length of each section are noted in the web-based proposal
form. PHASE I SUBMITTALS ARE DUE NO LATER THAN 4:00 PM CST, 8 December
2008. Phase I submittals received after 8 December 2008, may or may not be evaluated.
However, these proposals will be held for possible action until expiration of this BAA. The
Phase I proposals are evaluated by the Air Force's Technical Evaluation Board (TEB) using
the same selection criteria used to evaluate Phase II proposals. It is critical that the offeror
convey the above information accurately and concisely so that proposal evaluators can
judge the merits of the proposed demonstration/field testing of the technology. Those
proposals that are judged innovative and meet program requirements are selected for
further evaluation in Phase II. Offerors whose proposals are not selected for Phase II are
notified electronically of this decision, while those selected are similarly notified and invited
to submit a Phase II proposal as an attachment to the electronic format provided via

robert.gostel@navy.mil NAICS: 562910. THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE ONLY.
This is not a solicitation request for proposals and no contract will be awarded from this
notice. There will not be a solicitation, specifications or drawings available at this time.
Naval Facilities Engineering Command Mid-Atlantic (NAVFAC MIDLANT) is seeking
Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, certified HUBZone Small Business,
and certified 8(a) Small Disadvantaged Businesses with current relevant qualifications,
experience, personnel and capability to perform the proposed contracts. NAVFAC MIDLANT
anticipates awarding Remedial Action Operations Multiple Award Contract(s) (RAOMAC) for
projects within its Area of Responsibility (AOR). This area includes: New England (Maine,
Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut) and the
Delaware Valley (New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania). The contract will be awarded
to a maximum of five (5) contractors. The contract will be for a five year duration: base year
plus four option years. General Work Requirement: The Contractor shall provide the
personnel, tools, equipment, materials, transportation, and management to perform the
services as required and negotiated in each individual task order. These services may
include: * Operation, maintenance, inspection, repairs, modifications and removal and
dismantling of existing remedial treatment systems according to established procedures.
The types of systems will include but are not limited to: - Groundwater Treatment Plants
(GWTP)- Various types of soil caps and RCRA landfill caps- Air sparging, soil vapor
extraction, bioslurper and free product recovery systems- Wastewater treatment facilities-
Bioremediation systems- Natural Attenuation * Monitoring of groundwater wells* Disposal
and Storage of investigative derived waste* Sampling and analysis of various media
including water, soil, sediment, air and vapor* Construction of environmental removal
actions/remedies; as well as field modifications to treatment facilities, storage systems and
spill containment/control processes* Documenting and reporting findings* Other related
activities associated with restoring areas to safe and acceptable condition* Treatment
systems can include tanks, POL pipelines, storm water drains, oil water separators,
pumps and manholes. The contractor will be able to provide inspections, cleaning,
maintenance and repair per API and State regulations.* Hazardous materials/hazardous
waste/ Toxic substances management, sampling, analysis, and reporting In addition to
performance of the specific services listed above, the contractor will generally be
responsible for maintaining records and preparation of written documents such as
Operations and Maintenance (O&M) plan modifications, work plans, health & safety plans,
sampling and analysis plans (SAP), and waste management plans connected with such
services. The contractor may also be required to provide proposed solutions to technical
problems and optimization. The work also includes performing indefinite quantity work
such as maintenance, repair, and /or construction directed by the Contracting Officer via
issued Task Orders. Proposed Contract Task Order (CTO) ordering procedures: Each
CTO will be initially awarded on a "fair opportunity" basis as outlined in FAR 16.505.
Because the initial contracts will be awarded through a rigorous Best Value Source
Selection (BVSS) process, we intend to make maximum use of the latitude allowed by the
FAR to streamline CTO awards. Typically, only price and past performance will be
considered. When required, we will maintain the ability to employ more rigorous evaluation
criteria for CTO awards. Follow-on CTO's will be ordered as an "exception to the fair
opportunity process" as outlined in FAR 16.505. Because O&M/Long Term Monitoring
(LTM) requires consistent management, it would be impractical to re-compete each CTO
at its completion. Each awardee will have a fair opportunity to be considered for the original
orders, but, we will attempt to negotiate subsequent follow-on CTO's on a sole-source
basis in the interest of economy and efficiency. If we are unable to negotiate a fair and
reasonable price, we will reserve the right to compete the follow-on work on a "fair
opportunity" basis to all contract awardees. The range for each contract is $20,000,000
to $30,000,000. All Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, certified HUBZone
Small Business, and certified 8(a) Small Disadvantaged Businesses are encouraged to
respond. The Government will not pay for any information solicited. Respondents will not
be notified of the results of the evaluation. One of the main functions of this synopsis is to
assist the Contracting Officer in determining whether an 8(a), HUBZone Small Business or
Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business Set-aside is an acceptable strategy for
this procurement. If a full and open competition is ultimately pursued, responses to this
synopsis will be used to aid in establishing small business subcontracting goals. All
qualified firms are encouraged to respond. The Government anticipates a contract award
for these contracts in March 2009. The appropriate NAICS Code is 562910 with a size
standard of 500 employees. It is requested that interested parties submit a brief capabilities
package not to exceed 5 pages. This capabilities package shall address, at a minimum the
following: (1) Examples of projects worked within the last five years of similar size, scope
and complexity as the work indicated. Knowledge of the state regulations within the AOR.
Indicate whether your firm worked as a prime or subcontractor, contract value, brief
description of how the referenced contract relates to the work described, and a
overnment / Agency point of contact. (2) Company profile, to include number of offices and
number of employees per office, annual receipts, office location(s), available bonding
capacity in excess of $16,000,000 per contract, DUNS number, and CAGE Code. (3) Please

contract(s) necessary to cover the RAO requirement within our AOR, please identify the
geographic area in which you can operate in an efficient and economical manner. The
capabilities package for this sources sought notice is not expected to be a proposal, but
rather a short statement regarding the company's ability to demonstrate existing, or
developed, expertise and experience in relation to this contract. Any commercial brochures
or currently existing marketing material may also be submitted with the capabilities package.
Submission of a capabilities package is not a prerequisite to any potential future offerings,
but participation will assist the Navy in tailoring requirements to be consistent with industry
capabilities. Responses to this Sources Sought Notice shall be mailed to the following

ADVANCED MIXED WASTE TREATMENT PROJECT - FINAL RFP (PRESOL)
SOL DE-RP07-09ID14813 DUE 010509 POC: Wendy Bauer, Contracting Officer,
208-526-2808, E-MAIL: bauerwl@id.doe.gov ; Jennifer K. Cate, Contract Specialist,
208-526-0631. The U.S. Department of Energy, Idaho Operations Office, in coordination
with the Office of Environmental Management, is seeking a contractor to perform waste
processing at the Advanced Mixed Waste Treatment Project (AMWTP) at DOE's Idaho
Site near Idaho Falls, Idaho. The purpose of this contract will be to process and dispose
of the transuranic waste and mixed low-level waste at the Idaho Sites Transuranic Storage
Area (TSA). This is primarily to ensure compliance with the 1995 Idaho Settlement
Agreement and the INL Site Treatment Plan regarding treating the waste and removing it
from the state of Idaho. The contractor selected will be responsible for performing the work
necessary to retrieve, characterize, treat (as necessary), package, and otherwise process
and dispose of the estimated total of 33,600m3 of waste at the AMWTP. The end objective
is to disposition all of the waste at an appropriate disposal facility. The wastes include DOE
laboratory and processing wastes from Rocky Flats and various DOE facilities. The wastes
are stored in drums, boxes, and bins at the Idaho Sites TSA. The wastes may consist of
mixtures of various solid materials, including paper, cloth, plastic, rubber, glass, graphite,
bricks, concrete, metals, nitrate salts, process sludge, miscellaneous components, and
some absorbed liquids. The majority of the AMWTP waste contains both Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) constituents and radioactive constituents and is
therefore mixed transuranic and mixed low level waste. The contract type will be a
Cost-Plus-Award-Fee (CPAF) with performance-based incentives. The solicitation will be
for full and open competition. This solicitation contemplates significant small business
participation, recommending 46.4% of the overall procurement dollars go to small business.
The anticipated period of performance is six years, from October 1, 2009, through
September 30, 2015. CITE:
