B -- FEASIBILITY ASSESSMENTS RELATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOW COST DERIVATIVES OF EXISTING SATELLITES FOR EARTH OBSERVING MISSIONS SOL CAN5-52808-308 POC Linda S. Kelley, Contracting Officer; telephone: 301-286-2094; fax: 301-286-1742; E-Mail: linda.s.kelley.1@gsfc.nasa.gov. NASA/GSFC intends to release a Cooperative Agreement Notice (CAN) on July 10, 1996, for one or more feasibility assessments to gather information related to concepts for low cost derivatives of existing satellites which may be applicable to future Earth observing missions. While this information may be used in future evaluations of alternatives for Earth Observing System (EOS) Chemistry as well as other National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) missions, the studies which result are not themselves part of a procurement resulting from a decision to restructure any ongoing mission. Proposals from industry will be due on August 2, 1996, with study results due during the week of November 4, 1996. NASA intends to award multiple Cooperative Agreements for a fixed price of up to $200,000 each. Electronic versions of the documents will be provided on the World Wide Web at http://genesis.gsfc.nasa.gov/procure.htm, and by anonymous ftp to genesis.gsfc.nasa.gov/public/web/solicita.
