A -- DEMONSTRATION OF TECHNOLOGIES FOR CLEANUP OF ST. LOUIS AIRPORT SITE SOL DE-RP26-97FT34330 DUE 090597 POC Point of Contact -- Contact Point, D. Denise Riggi, 304/285-4241; Contracting Officer, Randolph L. Kesling The Department of Energy's (DOE) Federal Energy Technology Center (FETC) plans to issue a Request for Proposal No. DE-RP26-97FT34330 entitled "Demonstration of Technologies for Cleanup of St. Louis Airport Site." The objective of the procurement is to identify technologies for the remediation of the St. Louis Airport Site (SLAPS) that have the potential for treating soil contaminated with radium, thorium, and uranium to meet target treatment goals and reduce clean up costs while ensuring no negative impacts on public health, environmental resouces, or economic development in the area. DOE is seeking on-site, cost effective technologies and systems that have clearly shown the potential to reduce cost, waste volume, and risk, during bench scale and pilot studies, or have documented evidence of success in areas such as contaminant characterization/delineation, remediation of radioactive soils, and waste minimization. This effort is for demonstration only (expected to be completed in fiscal year 1998), full remediation of the site will be the subject of a subsequent procurement. An information package containing additional details on the RFP objectives will be available on the Internet on or around June 17, 1997, at [http://www.fetc.doe.gov/business/solicit/solicit.html]. This package is only available via Internet and will not be distributed in paper form. A Presolicitation Conference will be held on July 1, 1997, at the St. Louis World Trade Center, 1st Floor, 121 South Maramec, St. Louis, Missouri. A 1-hour bus tour of the SLAPS cleanup site will be conducted beginning at 9:00 a.m.(CST) on July 1, 1997, departing from the DOE Information Center, 9170 Latty Avenue, Berkeley, Missouri, 63134. The Presolicitation Conference will begin at 1:00 p.m. (CST) at the St. Louis World Trade Center. SLAPS characterization information will be presented at the Presolicitation Conference. Comments on the proposed objectives are encouraged and welcomed; one of the purposes of this announcement and the Presolicitation Conference is to solicit comments prior to release of the entire solicitation. All comments should be submitted to Mrs. D. Denise Riggi at the address (via mail, email, or fax) above and should identify the Solicitation number. Comments by phone will not be honored. Requests for the entire solicitation package should reference the solicitation number and should be forwarded at this time to the address (via mail, email, or fax) noted above. Official release of the entire solicitation is anticipated on or about August 6, 1997 with proposals being due approximately September 5, 1997. (AC0613036-01) (0164)
