IT IS NOT TO BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT TO PROCURE ANY SERVICES, AND THE PHILADELPHIA DISTRICT DOES NOT INTEND TO AWARD A CONTRACT ON THE BASIS OF THIS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Philadelphia District is conducting market research to facilitate a determination of acquisition strategy for this procurement. The determination of the acquisition strategy for this procurement lies solely with the Government and will be based on market research and information available to the Government from other sources. In addition to all interested contractors, a Market Survey is also being conducted to determine if there are adequate Small Businesses, HUBZone, 8(a), Women Owned, or Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business contractors that have the capability to perform a complex Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP) project at the DuPont Chambers Works (DuPont) site. Responses to this sources sought announcement will be used by the Government to make appropriate acquisition decisions. The NAICS Code for this acquisition is 562910 - Environmental Remediation Services. The business size standard for NAICS Code 562910 is 500 employees. The duration of this contract is a base year with four option years. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this synopsis or any follow up information requests. NO SOLICITATION IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. PROJECT DESCRIPTION DuPont is an operating chemical manufacturing complex, located in Salem County, New Jersey. In the 1940s, E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company performed work for the federal government in support of the nation's early atomic energy program. The USACE is addressing residual radioactive contamination in specific areas of the property under the FUSRAP. The areas are collectively referred to as the DuPont Chambers Works FUSRAP Site. USACE identified the FUSRAP-eligible constituents of concern in site soils that were related to the uranium processing activities at the site and that could pose a risk to human health under an industrial land use scenario. Constituents of concern are uranium, thorium, and radium; specifically Uranium-234 (U-234), Uranium-235 (U-235), Uranium-238 (U-238), Thorium-230 (Th-230), and Radium-226 (Ra-226). The remedial action recommended in the Proposed Plan and selected in the Record of Decision, signed on September 12, 2013, only addresses these FUSRAP-eligible constituents of concern and does not address other hazardous contaminants that may be present at the site. Major components of the selected remedy include, but are not limited to: •Excavation of contaminated soil with total uranium concentrations above the remediation goal of 65 picocuries/gram (pCi/g); •physical separation and management of excavated material containing non-FUSRAP hazardous substances that are commingled with FUSRAP-eligible contaminants; •transportation of excavated soils by rail to an off-site, permitted disposal facility; •recovery of water and non-aqueous phase liquids; •performance of a final status survey to verify that the completed remedial action meets the soil remediation goal; •implementation and evaluation of monitored natural attenuation to address residual uranium contamination in groundwater, after completing the soil response action; and •implementation of land use controls to limit potential onsite exposure to contaminants during remedial action activities. CONTRACT REQUIREMENT When a solicitation is issued, firms will be selected for negotiation based on demonstrated competence and qualifications for all of the required work.
