- SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION ANNOUNCEMENT OR REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. This is a market research tool being used to determine the availability and adequacy of potential business sources prior to determining the method of acquisition and issuance of a Request for Proposal (RFP). The intent of this sources sought synopsis are as follows: (1) The Government is researching the contract types (i.e. Firm Fixed Price, Time and Material, Cost Type etc.) customarily utilized in the Marketplace for the following Environmental Services that are the responsibility of the Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center for procurement. The environmental services include: Environmental Planning/Programmatic Environmental Safety and Health Evaluation (PESHE); National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Planning and Documentation; Technology Development, Demonstration, Integration, and Transfer; Pollution Prevention (P2) Planning and Engineering; Environmental Compliance Support; P2 Equipment Procurement Implementation; Environmental, Occupational Safety and Hea! lth (ESOH); Hazardous Materials Management Program (HMMP); Weapons System Environmental Planning; and Ecological Dive Assessment. (2) The Government is researching to identify potential qualified 8(a), Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone), Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), and Small Business (SB) offerors for environmental services as stated in the paragraph above that are the responsibility of the NFESC for procurement. The general Scope of Work will include services from a Contractor to provide personnel, equipment, materials, and facilities to conduct environmental research and development, and test and evaluation for shore facilities. The NFESC mission is to assure that activities conducting industrial processes comply with federal, state, and local regulatory requirements. The NFESC emphasis is on technologies that reduce hazardous waste generation through process modification, material substitution, or recycling; solid waste a! nd hazardous material management; industrial oily waste treatment to levels approaching or achieving zero discharge; and air pollution issues that impact Navy industrial processes. The NFESC Environmental Division requires Contractor to provide services in: Environmental Planning/Programmatic Environmental Safety and Health Evaluation (PESHE)-The Contractor shall utilize data provided by Naval Operating Forces and the Systems Commands (SYSCOMS) in planning for the environmental impacts of acquisition and operational programs and in developing appropriate mitigation measures. The Contractor shall develop PESHE's that describe strategy for meeting ESOH requirements, establishes responsibilities, and identifies how progress shall be tracked. National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Planning and Documentation-. NEPA documentation shall include categorical exclusions, environmental assessments, environmental impact statements, risk management plans, and associated environmental planning documents. The Contractor shall prepare equivalent documen! ts for overseas locations.; Technology Development, Demonstration, Integration, and Transfer-The Contractor will assist in RDT&E efforts and technology marketing. The Contractor may be tasked with locating potential navy or DoD customers, as well as locating private companies in related fields with an interest in patented license agreements or cooperative research and development agreement. The Contractor shall provide the personnel, equipment, materials and facilities to respond to multiple requests for environmental support under various tasks. Pollution Prevention (P2) Planning and Engineering - As part of this effort, the Contractor shall provide data deliverables to be used to control and manage hazardous materials. The Contractor shall evaluate P2 plans for Navy installations to identify impacts to systems acquisition programs. The Contractor shall provide data to be used to establish a hazardous materials management program that ensures that appropriate consid! eration is given to eliminating and reducing the use of hazardous materials in processes and products rather than simply managing pollution created. Environmental Compliance Support -This shall include planning, consulting, engineering, design, and documentation assistance in the areas of compliance interpretation, modeling, sampling, monitoring, and meetings with regulatory agencies. The Contractor shall also review and provide analyses of environmental compliance requirements overseas. The Contractor shall provide support in all environmental media and related fields including air, hazardous materials, hazardous waste, solid waste, industrial wastewater, domestic wastewater, stormwater, watershed management and potable and non-potable water systems, P2 Equipment Procurement Implementation-The Contractor shall provide P2 technology procurement, and P2 technology site assessment and implementation from commercially available environmental technologies. Technologies typically include the following media: hazardous waste reduction, hazardous m! aterials reduction, toxic air emissions, solid waste recycling, oil spill on water response and recovery, and energy and water conservation. Occupational Safety and Health (ESOH), The Contractor shall provide services in the following areas: workplace air and sound sampling, ventilation engineering, personnel protective gear, confined space entry, hot work, chemical processes, electrical and mechanical lock-out procedures, first aid, and risk analyses and modeling. Hazardous Materials Management Program (HMMP)-The Contractor shall perform and document the results of hazardous materials analyses per DoD 5000 series requirements. The Contractor shall evaluate and recommend hazardous materials management programs that give appropriate consideration to eliminating and reducing the use of hazardous materials in processes and products rather than simply managing pollution created. The selection, use, and disposal of hazardous material shall be evaluated and managed so the Nav! y incurs the lowest cost required to protect human health and the environment over the system's lifecycle, consistent with the program's cost, schedule, and performance goals. Weapons System Environmental Planning- The Contractor shall provide environmental engineering support for weapons systems deactivation, demilitarization, and disposal (3D) assessment, including the development of demilitarization plans, and conducting field work to demilitarize and dispose of end-of-life weapons systems and components (e.g., airframes, jet engines, etc.), as well as a 3D safety plan. The Contractor shall provide weapons system training and planning for the following topics- Navy Inter-Deployment Training Cycle (IDTC) and Marine Operating Force Pre-Deployment Training Program (PTP), operational range clearance and infrastructure management, land use planning, NEPA, terrestrial and marine biology, cultural and natural resources management, Range and Air Installation Compatibility Use Zone/Air Installation Compatibility Use Zone documents (RAICUZ/AICUZ), noise studies and air space management, air quality, oceanography, public health and safety, explosive safety, environmental multi-media complianc! e [i.e., Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), Clean Water Act (CWA), etc.], GIS/data management, public affairs and military operations/maintenance budget and capital investment planning. Ecological Dive Assessment -. The Contractor shall provide dive services and expertise to the Navy associated with conducting underwater ecological assessments. Dive locations can be world wide, including San Diego, Guam, Diego Garcia, and Hawaii. Interested sources should respond with a brief information concerning what type of contract vehicle is customarily utilized in the Marketplace for the above services pertaining to Environmental Support Services. Also, respond with brief information by completing the attached Questionnaire concerning identifying each sources as qualified 8(a), Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZONE), Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and Small Business (SB) offerors. This announcement is not a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or ultimately award a contract. The applicable NAICS Code is 541330 Environmental Engineering Services with a size standard of $4.5 Million. Interested sources mus! t submit any comments and information via email to Carol.Vollmer@navy.mil no later than 23 January 2009. Responses received after this deadline may not be considered. Since this is a Sources Sought announcement, no evaluation letters will be issued to participants.
