- Description
- THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT, NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. A SOLICITATION DOCUMENT WILL NOT BE ISSUED AND PROPOSALS WILL NOT BE REQUESTED. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Pittsburgh District, intends to extend contract W911WN-14-C-0004 on a sole source basis under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(B) with American Federal Security and K-9 Solutions-2 (AFSK9), 399 Magnus Lane, North Huntingdon, PA 15642. The contract is for Security Services at the Shallow Land Disposal Area (SLDA) Site, a formerly used nuclear materials disposal site located in Parks Township, Armstrong County, PA. FAR Clause 52.217-8 was in the solicitation and resulting contract but was not evaluated. The Pittsburgh District originally awarded this contract to AFSK9 via a Small Business Set-Aside. The Pittsburgh District requires the continuation of the security services as required until the follow-on solicitation, evaluation, and resulting award are complete. The SLDA is a 44-acre fenced site. The site includes ten trenches containing potentially contaminated waste and soil. The estimated quantities of contaminated waste in the trenches range from 23,500 to 36,000 cubic yards. Uranium and thorium contaminated wastes consist of process wastes. Equipment, scrap, and trash from the nearby Apollo nuclear fuel fabrication facility were disposed of in the SLDA trenches between 1961 and 1970. The uranium in the trenches is present at various levels of enrichment ranging from highly depleted to highly enriched. Americium and plutonium, whose presence is attributed to storage of equipment used in adjoining Parks Facility, have been detected in surface soils in the vicinity of trench 10. Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation (predecessor of current owner BWX Technologies (BWXT)) previously conducted the disposals according to Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) regulations. BWXT currently holds a Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) License for its activities at SLDA. A portion of that license is currently being held in abeyance to allow the remediation of the site by the USACE. The NRC license requires BWXT to properly maintain the site to ensure the protection of workers and the public. While the license is held in abeyance, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is responsible for protection of workers and the public with respect to the site. A portion of that license is currently being held in abeyance to allow the remediation of the site by the USACE. The NRC license requires BWXT to properly maintain the site to ensure the protection of workers and the public. While the license is held in abeyance, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is responsible for protection of workers and the public with respect to the site.
