The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is planning to issue a Request for Proposal for work in support of the Startup and Certification of the "Andersen 2000" Incinerators in Pervomaysk, Ukraine. This effort is for the startup of U.S. Government-provided incinerators located in Pervomaysk, Ukraine in preparation for their use in the destruction of dilute cleaning byproducts. The dilute cleaning byproducts will be generated from the cleanup and dismantlement of the Unified Fill Facilities at Pervomaysk and include propellant contaminated washwaters. One incinerator will be set up for the destruction of unsymmetrical dimethyl hydrazine (UDMH) (also known as heptyl) contaminated materials. The second incinerator will be set up for the destruction of nitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) (also known as amyl) contaminated material. The startup process will include the following seven primary activities: (1) Set up incinerators in locations consistent with Good Engineering Practice Stack Height Requirements for the existing stacks. Provide connections to electrical power, grounding, fuel, and liquid waste supply; (2) Replace equipment and parts that have been placed in secure storage or were loaned to the Dnepropetrovsk incinerators; (3) Bring the incinerators to a state of operational readiness by incorporating design changes and lessons learned during the startup of the Dnepropetrovsk incinerators. Ensure compliance with all applicable U.S. and Ukrainian safety standards and laws; (4) Train personnel in the operation and maintenance of the incinerators; (5) Conduct a startup and systems operability test of both incinerators; (6) Certify the incinerators for dilute heptyl and amyl and concentrated heptyl; (7) Update incinerator documentation to current status. The contractor is responsible for obtaining licenses, permits, and all other documents as necessary.
