- Description
- The U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Region 2 Southwestern Native Aquatic Resources and Recovery Center (ARRC) intends to award a sole source contract under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1 (Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirement), 41 U.S.C. 253(c) (1), to Nelson & Sons, Inc., 712 E 2400 N, Tooele, UT 84074 for 1.0MM-4.0MM Bozeman Razor fish feed and Silvery Minnow fish feed. Bozeman Razor fish feed: Nelson & Son ¿s has assisted the USFWS Bozeman Fish Technology Center and Southwestern ARRC in developing the Razorback sucker feed (RBS) and Rio Grande silvery minnow (RGSM) fish feed over a 4-year period. The RBS and RGSM feed are species specific diet for a federally listed species and is used at Dexter National Fish Hatchery and partners, the San Juan Recovery Basic Program to successfully culture healthy, quality fish. Any departure from its use and manufacturing presents a risk to the overall success of the RBS and RGSM culture and reintroduction program. Feed and manufacture/delivery requirement is as follows: 2000 lbs. 3.0MM Bozeman Razor (Manufactured Jan./Feb. 2017; Delivery Feb. 2017); 4000 lbs. 4.0MM Bozeman Razor (Manufactured Jan./Feb. 2017; Delivery Feb. 2017); 2000 lbs. 8.0MM Trout Sink (Manufactured Jan./Feb. 2017; Delivery Feb. 2017); 1000 lbs. 1.0MM Bozeman Razor (Manufactured April/May 2017; Delivery May 2017); 1000 lbs. 1.0MM Bozeman Razor (Manufactured April/May 2017; Delivery May 2017); 2000 lbs. Silvery Minnow Starter (Manufactured April/May 2017; Delivery May 2017); 2500 lbs. Silvery Minnow #1 (Manufactured April/May 2017; Delivery May 2017); 1000 lbs. Silvery Minnow #2 (Manufactured April/May 2017; Delivery May 2017); 500 lbs. Flake Silvery Minnow 0511(Manufactured April/May 2017; Delivery May 2017). This action is intended to be awarded without competition for the following reason. Nelson & Son ¿s is the only vendor to have made the diet providing a constant and quality product. Any deviation from the existing fish culture (fish feed) program presents a risk to maintaining the fish alive and would require several years of testing and evaluation to determine the overall impact to the current RSB and RGSM propagation program. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 311119, Other Animal Food Manufacturing with a size standard 500 employees. This is not a request for proposals and no solicitation is forthcoming. However, firms that believe they can provide these services in their entirety must submit a written notification of interest and capability to the Contracting Officer by the date and time indicated. Information received will be considered solely for the purposes of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will not be responsible for any costs incurred by responding to this notice. This notice in no way obligates the Government to award any contract. Questions or comments pertaining to this action or written notification of interest and capability may be emailed to Lisa Rodriguez, Contracting Officer at lisa_rodriguez@fws.gov or call (505) 248-6797, not later than 1200 (EDT), December 22, 2016.
