The task orders will be firm fixed price type task orders. Projects will take place at Edwards AFB, Air Force Plant 42, and test ranges within the greater Southwest Range Complex. Work and services may include but are not limited to compliance and pollution prevention program related services and documentation, natural resources conservation program activities, environmental restoration activities and Base Comprehensive planning (BCP) and geographic information system (GIS) development associated with these activities. Compliance and pollution prevention activities shall address: Permits coordination and preparation; Emergency Planning Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA) compliance; Environmental Compliance Assessment Management Program (ECAMP); Senate Bill-14 adherence; petroleum, oil and lubricant waste compliance activities; Resource Conservation Recovery Act and California Title 22 and other federal, state and local regulatory compliance; air and water quality investigation; air quality conformity determination; lead/asbestos/PCB surveys; tiered permits coordination and preparation; landfill compliance and remedial activities; hazardous waste management; accumulation sites management; waste management recycling and minimization; developing pollution control technologies; characterizing waste streams; establishing waste stream volumes; and databases for tracking progress toward achieving reduction goals; conducting opportunity assessments to identify pollution prevention opportunities; developing strategies to reduce the volume of waste or toxicity of waste that is generated; development of recycling programs including the affirmative procurement of recycled materials; and solid waste management. Baseline planning studies to support master planning opportunities and constraints to include, but not be limited to, environmental issues such as air emissions surveys and source testing, soil surveys, groundwater and aquifer surveys and modeling, geological investigation. Natural Resources conservation activities shall address: National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) adherence; historic preservation; archeology; paleontology; endangered species and plants; desert ecosystem management; environmental assessments and impact statements; air space/range analyses and impact on the environment; GIS; and environmental design review.
