- Formated Version of Sources Sought Notice 1.0 Summary The U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT), Office of the Assistant Secretary for Research and Technology, John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), Cambridge, MA, is issuing this Sources Sought to assist the Government in the development of its acquisition strategy. This synopsis does not constitute a Request for Proposal. The Volpe Center is seeking potential offerors that are capable of supporting the cleanup and closure of contaminated sites and the proper disposition of obsolete and abandoned infrastructure with a focus on two primary functional areas: (1) Environmental remediation services; and (2) Decommissioning services. 2.0 Background The Volpe Center currently provides environmental remediation and decommissioning services for a variety of Federal agencies and departments at worksites across the nation. The majority of this work is performed for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in support of the FAA's National Environmental Cleanup (ECU) and Facility Decommissioning (FD) Programs. Under the ECU Program, the FAA is responsible for the investigation and cleanup of environmental contamination at FAA owned and operated properties where FAA maintains liability due to past site operations or waste disposal activities. The primary program drivers include the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Environmental contamination encountered at FAA facilities typically consists of petroleum products, heavy metals, solvents, pesticides, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) that were released as a result of spills, leaks, or improper disposal practices. Under the FD program, the FAA is responsible for the decontamination, demolition, and disposition of facilities and infrastructure rendered obsolete by the FAA modernization efforts, Although the majority of work is expected to be in support of the FAA's ECU and FD Programs, work for other agencies such as the U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is likely. Work may be required for agencies other than those identified above. Work sites may be located within the contiguous United States (CONUS) and outside the contiguous United States (OCONUS) which includes Alaska, Hawaii, and all off-shore United States territories and possessions. 3.0 Description The Volpe Center has identified multiple task areas where support is needed including but not limited to containment, removal, treatment (on-site, off-site, and in-situ), sampling and analysis for monitoring and control, transportation and disposal, operation and maintenance, hazardous materials abatement, demolition, site restoration and any other actions necessary to support site cleanup, decommissioning, and closure. The general tasks and their related work areas are described below. The Volpe Center is seeking a capability statement from all interested parties who are capable of supporting two or more of the following general task areas within CONUS or both CONUS and OCONUS. Service Description: Remedial Action Construction and commissioning of treatment facilities; decontamination of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) material; bioremediation; thermal destruction; water treatment; air injection; free-product recovery; groundwater extraction and dewatering; underground storage tank removal, closure, and replacement; septic system and leach field closure; landfill development, operation, and closure; slurry walls/subsurface barriers; drum bulking; excavation; dredging; soil/sludge stabilization and solidification; soil vapor extraction; soil washing; asbestos and lead-based paint abatement; treatment and disposal of heavy metals, PCBs, commercial chemical products, equipment fluids, containerized gas, universal waste, exempt quantities of radioactive materials, non-regulated electronic equipment, investigation- derived wastes and decontamination-derived wastes.
