- Description
- THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS FOR WRITTEN INFORMATION ONLY. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION ANNOUNCEMENT FOR PROPOSALS AND NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Cincinnati Procurement Operations Division, is performing market research for the Office of Research and Development, National Homeland Security Research Center to identify the capability of any firms that can perform periodic decontamination activities of its Biological Safety Level (BSL) 3 laboratory located in Cincinnati, OH. The laboratory is utilized to perform research on select agents and other pathogens and consists of six (6) rooms, two (2) closets and an access hallway totaling approximately 28,000 square feet of space. Decontamination is required to be performed during off hours (holidays, weekends) and shall be followed by appropriate confirmatory testing using Geobacillus stearothermophilus as an indicator that pathogens have been successfully inactivated. Decontamination activities are expected to be required on a quarterly basis, and potentially on an emergency basis. The disinfection procedure must not be harmful to sensitive laboratory equipment or electronics. Chlorine dioxide is not an acceptable decontamination agent for this purpose. Any interested firm should submit a capability statement, which clearly demonstrates the firm?s ability to perform the decontamination activities described above, including the provision and installation of all required decontamination equipment. A description of the firm?s previous experience in providing, installing, and performing periodic decontamination of laboratory spaces shall be provided, along with reference information. The capability statement must include proof that the appropriate license(s) for using the intended disinfectant in this manner have been obtained or applied for from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency?s Office of Prevention, Pesticides and Toxic Substances (OPPTS). Standard company brochures will not be considered a sufficient response to this Sources Sought Synopsis. In the capabilities statements, contractors must indicate their businesses size and status (i.e., certified 8(a) firm, small, small disadvantaged, or large business). The applicable NAICS code is 562910 - environmental remediation services. Responses to the above should be submitted electronically via e-mail to the attention of Savage.Sandra@epa.gov no later than December 1, 2004, 3:00 p.m. EST.
