Those who responded to the original announcement need not reply to this one. The Minerals Management Service intends to procure services to perform Phases II & III of a study entitled ``An Assessment of the Historical, Social and Economic Impacts of OCS Development on OCS Communities.'' The study is a follow-on to Phase I in which a set of Louisiana parishes highly affected by the OCS leasing program was identified. All reports and databases generated under Phase I will be available to the investigator for Phases II and III. Phase II will focus on building a database of valid and reliable measures of these trends at the county/parish, state, and regional level, and on explaining these trends in terms of other social and historical changes. Phase III will focus on testing and refining Phase II findings at the community level using family- and local-level information. The two phases will overlap, spanning an expected performance period of approximately 2 years. Deliverables will include various formal reports, datasets, literature review, annotated bibliography, etc. Anticipated date of solicitation issuance is 07/20/95.
