- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 6.302-1- Only One Responsible Source, with Argo Turboserve Corporation/ATC Nuclear of Oak Ridge, TN, for the removal of used electrical enclosure equipment from the Bellefonte Nuclear Power Plant in Hollywood, Alabama for the Fire Research Division of the Engineering Laboratory (EL) at NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland. The overarching goal of the Fire Research Division is to develop, verify, and utilize measurements and predictive methods to quantify the behavior of fire and means to reduce the impact of fire on people, property, and the environment. This work involves integration of laboratory measurements, verified methods of prediction, and large-scale fire experiments to demonstrate the use and value of the research products. Through its programs in measurement, prediction, systems integration, and the dynamics of fire and its interactions with the built and natural environment, the division provides leadership for advancing the theory and practice of fire safety engineering, fire fighting, fire investigation, fire testing, fire data management, and intentional burning. ATC Nuclear is the sole authorized provider to remove equipment from the Bellefonte Nuclear Power Plant, as they hold the contract with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) for this service under TVA contract 7188. ATC Nuclear specializes in the nuclear utility industry as a source for obsolete parts. The Fire Research Division, along with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Office of Research, plan to use the retrieved equipment from Bellefonte plant in experiments to determine ignition propensity, fire spread, and heat release. The equipment provided by ATC nuclear will be the same that is found in existing plants. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 238210, for this acquisition, with a size standard of $14 Million. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon 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. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, responses received by June 21, 2013 will be considered by the Government.
