E-MAIL: For additional information, email DESC's Electricity, eteam@desc.dla.mil. The Defense Energy Support Center (DESC) is seeking to enter into Basic Agreements (See Federal Acquisition Regulation [FAR] Part 16.702) with potential suppliers of retail electricity, ancillary services, and incidental services for delivery within the following North American Electric Reliability Council (NERC) regions: Northeast Power Coordinating Council (NPCC), Mid-Atlantic Area Council (MAAC), East Central Area Reliability Coordination (ECAR), Southeastern Electric Reliability Council (SERC), Florida Reliability Coordinating Council (FRCC), Mid-America Interconnected Network (MAIN), Southwest Power Pool (SPP), Mid-Continent Area Power Pool (MAPP), Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), and Western Systems Coordinating Council (WSCC). As the restructuring of the electricity industry proceeds, DESC is planning to enter into Basic Agreements with potential suppliers within each NERC region. The execution of Basic Agreements affords DESC the best opportunity to meet future installation electricity requirements, if requested to do so, through award of definitive contracts using existing Basic Agreements. To obtain a copy of the Basic Agreement or for more information send an email to: E-Team@desc.dla.mil. The Basic Agreement packages are due to DESC by 3:00 p.m. EST on January 7, 2000. Posted 11/24/99 (W-SN403415). (0328)
