COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF AUGUST 18,1997 PSA#1911Earth Tech, 1461 E. Cooley Drive, Suite 100, Colton, California 92324 B -- INFORMATION NEEDED (TECHNICAL AND COST) ON THE SPILL RESPONSE
EQUIPMENT/MATERIALS (REVISED) DUE 091797 POC Earth Tech, ATTN: Mr Greg
Maynor, 1461 E.Cooley Drive, Suite 100, Colton, California, 92324
voice (909)424-1919 ext. 604, fax (909) 424- 1917. KEY WORDS --
Regulatory and Environmental and Compliance and Spill and Response and
Equipment. Request for Information -- A -- Introduction: Technology
Transfer Division of the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence
(AFCEE) is interested in receiving information (technical and cost) on
the spill response equipment/materials described below. The information
will be used during an independent evaluation of this type of
equipment/material. This CBD announcement is a request for information
only and will not result in the award of a contract. However, results
of the evaluation may impact future equipment/material purchases.
Information submitted in response to the Request for Information should
be sent to and received by EARTH TECH, 1461 E. Cooley Drive, Suite 100,
Colton, California 92324, Attention: Greg Maynor, no later than 30 days
from the announcement date in order to be considered during the
evaluation process. Information submitted after 30 days will not be
considered for evaluation. B -- Requirements: (1) Technical
description: The purpose of this effort is to collect information on
state-of-the-art equipment/materials used in the control and clean-up
of hazardous material spills. An independent evaluation will be
performed in order to identify equipment/materials that, if used, will
result in cost and time savings when compared to existing methods, as
well as protect human health and the environment, and facilitate
environmental compliance. Cost evaluation will include
equipment/material purchase, utilization, and disposal costs. (2)
Information Requested: The information data sets submitted shall
include the following: manufacturerFs name and/or vendorFs name,
address, point of contact, telephone and facsimile number, e-mail
address, intended use of the equipment/material, specific type of
material that the equipment/material is effective in
controlling/cleaning up, range of spilled-material quantity the
equipment/material is effective in controlling/cleaning up, costs
(purchase, utilization, and disposal costs), potential for spilled
material to be recovered/recycled following cleanup, training
requirements, estimated time required to control/cleanup a spill of a
given size, potential hazards involved with using the
equipment/material, potential material reactions, any storage
requirements and/or shelf-life limitations, and independent evaluation
documentation of the equipment/material effectiveness. If an
above-mentioned item is not applicable, indicate so in the information
package. If the equipment/material has not been independently
evaluated, provide any available evaluation documentation. Incomplete
information data sets will not be evaluated. C -- Evaluation Criteria:
The information received will be screened to determine applicability
to typical Air Force spill scenarios. The information will then be
further screened based upon economic and technical feasibility. Only
equipment/material information that is both applicable to typical Air
Force spill scenarios and economically/technically feasible will be
evaluated. The information will be evaluated based upon cost,
effectiveness, ease of use, risk to emergency responders, regulatory
concerns, and storage/shelf-life requirements. (0226) Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0015 19970818\B-0007.SOL)
