- Description
- NAICS Code: 541990 The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Research and Development (ORD), intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Dr. Robert Burns and Iowa State University for sample collection and stream flow measurements at their Beef Nutrition Research Farm near Ames, Iowa. US EPA requires a contractor that possesses the unique facility where this work can be conducted. This unique facility is essential for contract performance because the University farm is a research farm fully under control of the University and as such offers unique opportunities to carry out research that a privately owned feedlot would not. Access is restricted to University personnel. Iowa State University is the only known source able to satisfy the Government's requirements because the waste management system installed at Iowa State is the only one known to exist for the purpose of research. However, any firm believing itself capable of meeting EPA's requirement may submit technical documentation to establish the potential of complying with the specifications. Such documentation must be submitted to the point of contact within 15 days of the posting of this notice. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered only for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed on a sole source basis. The applicable NAICS code is 541990. Please submit your request in writing to Courtney Whiting by e-mail to whiting.courtney@epa.gov. No telephone requests or request by fax will be honored.
