General: The National Park Service, Department of Interior, intends to negotiate a sole source procurement with The National Academy of Sciences, National Research Council, to acquire the below listed services. The Government believes that the identified contractor is the only contractor capable of providing "an expert or neutral person for any current or anticipated litigation or dispute" as defined by FAR 6.302-3 (a)(2)(iii) for the required services. Firms that believe they can provide the required services described below are encouraged to identify themselves and give written notice to the Contracting Officer. Firms believing they can provide the required services must provide supporting evidence in sufficient detail to demonstrate the respondent's ability to meet the stated requirements. This notice is not a request for competitive quotes. All responses received within 30 days of the date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Inquiries will only be accepted by FAX at (303) 987-6646, Attention: Brenda Karl. Responses should include the firm's Dun and Bradstreet number and identification of business size in accordance with the size standard for NAIC 541620 which is $6.5 million. Title of Project: Best Practices for Shellfish Mariculture and a Scientific Review of Ecological Effects in Drake's Estero Description: The work of this proposed contract action consists of two phases represented by two separate reports prepared by an independent scientific panel of experts. The first report is an evaluation that establishes what is known or can reasonably be surmised of the ecological effects of the existing commercial mariculture operation on the Drake's Estero ecosystem and whether the National Park Service derived the correct conclusions from existing related scientific studies. The second report, which is subject to funds availability, will assess the nature and degree to which commercial mariculture operations affect natural ecosystems more widely. The reports must be independent analysis of existing research that is above reproach, and whose findings would be accepted without question and above dispute. Type of Procurement: A negotiated sole source cost reimburseable contract is anticipated. Range: First Phase: $200,000-$250,000, Second Phase: $200,000-$250,000
