- Description
- The text below reflects revisions to the initial synopsis: The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Office of Emergency and Remedial Response (OERR) requires advisory and assistance services for the Oil Program Center. The subject RFP is a full and open competitive acquisition providing Oil Program Center support for: 1) development and implementation of regulations; 2) evaluation of data; and 3) evaluation of public comments made in response to rule making activities. The Oil Program Center is responsible for developing national strategy, programs, technical policies, regulations and guidelines to prevent, prepare, and respond to oil spills. EPA will award a Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract structured with a base period of three years, and two option periods of two years each, for a total possible period of performance of seven years. The total level of effort (LOE) is estimated at approximately 140,000, consisting of 40,000 LOE under the base quantity of the base period; 20,000 LOE under the optional quantity of the base period; 26,500 LOE under the base quantity for option period I; 13,500 LOE under the optional quantity of option period I; 26,500 LOE under the base quantity of option period II; and 13,500 LOE under the optional quantity of option period II. Prospective Offerors should note that there are significant Conflict of Interest (COI) restrictions associated with this requirement. The EPA is soliciting proposals from qualified organizations that do not currently have and agree not to enter into a contract or subcontract with, or represent any party other than the EPA, that owns, operates, or has a significant financial business interest in the oil industry. Furthermore, an Offeror will be ineligible for award under this solicitation if the EPA determines that the Offeror, or the proposed subcontractors, at the time of award, own or operate an oil industry. "Owns or operates" is defined for the purposes of this solicitation in the Federal Register (40 CFR 260.10 and 45 FR 33169). "Oil industry" is defined for this solicitation as any industry that includes (a) edible and nonedible oils and related products, devices and affiliations related to non-transportation facilities that handle, store, or transport oil; or (b) any emerging or existing remediation technologies, products, devices, chemical and/or biological agents used in oil spill mitigation per 40 CFR 300.900. Offerors shall submit a disclosure statement that includes all current ownership, operation or significant financial or business interest the offeror (the prime Contactor), including any first, second, or third-tier parent companies or subsidiaries or other companies has in an oil industry that would be subject to or impacted by the rulemaking or promulgated regulations, and either propose how the exsting COI situation will be avoided or mitigated prior to contract award or demonstrate why the relationship dos not pose a COI. All inquiries shall be directed to Richard D. Medlin via email at medlin.richard@epa.gov. In an effort to streamline the procurement process, and to utilize the Internet and electronic communications to the maximum extent possible, this solicitation, any amendments, and other related items, will be posted at this website: http://www.epa.gov/oam/srpod/. No hard copies of the solicitation will be issued. For pertinent background information, program history, and environmental statutes, see http://www.epa.gov.oilspill.
