Please be advised meetings will be scheduled on a first-come-first-serve registration basis. Contract Description: The ECO2 effort is anticipated to provide multi-media environmental compliance services, environmental restoration services, general operational support and sustainability services/programs for WSTF. ECO2 Pre-Solicitation Conference Description: The ECO2 Pre-Solicitation conference is open to firms interested in pursuing contracting opportunities on the ECO2 procurement regardless if they have previously performed work at JSC/WSTF or at any other NASA facility. All interested parties are encouraged to participate in the Pre-Solicitation conference. ECO2 Pre-Solicitation Conference Attendance: Registration to the Pre-Solicitation Conference is required to ensure appropriate facility accommodations. Register using the link: https://baforms.typeform.com/to/HC8zKJ. Attendance is neither required nor a prerequisite for proposal submission and will not be considered during the evaluation process of any subsequent request for proposal. WSTF Site Tour Description: NASA will hold a WSTF site tour to allow potential Offerors to familiarize themselves with the facility. NASA's WSTF is a component of Johnson Space Center as a self-contained facility to test and evaluate potentially hazardous materials, spaceflight components, and rocket propulsion systems for NASA centers, other government agencies, and commercial industry. WSTF Site Tour Attendance: Registration for the site tour is required for any person who would like to participate. Failure to provide all the required information may result in denial of the site tour. All participants touring WSTF must be US citizens or Lawful Permanent Residents (LPRs) and possess and produce a valid federal or state issued photo identification to receive a badge. If a state-issued driver's license is used for identification, the state of issue must be provided in the registration information. ID's from States who are non-Compliant with the REAL ID Act will not be accepted. These states can be viewed at the registration site shown above. WSTF Site Tour Transportation: NASA will provide round trip transportation from the Ramada Palms to the NASA WSTF Facility. Privately owned vehicles (POVs) are not authorized. WSTF Site Tour Special Safety Information: WSTF is a hazardous test facility. Tour participants will not be allowed to wear open-toe shoes, high heels, shorts, skirts, or dresses. Participants will be outside in a very dry, high altitude desert environment. Proper outer wear and gear such as hat, umbrella, sunscreen, and water is recommended. There will be time between the conference and bus loading to allow for any offerors who choose, to change their attire. There will be a significant amount of walking involved with the tour (inside and out), and will include walking up and down stairways, uneven surfaces, rough terrain, tunnels and narrow passageways. Because WSTF is a hazardous test facility, there is very limited handicapped access during the tour. If special accommodations are required, please make a note on the registration request so accommodations can be considered. Smoking is allowed only in designated areas. Smoking will not be allowed in the transportation vehicles, hazardous areas or inside any buildings. No photography will be allowed.
