This announcement solicits for subcontractors who can team up with a prequalified Korean contractor for this work. Much of the work involves studies, investigations, and remedial activities performed to U.S. environmental standards. Since the prequalified contractors may not be totally familiar with all of the U.S. environmental requirements, subcontractors who are experienced in performing environmental and Hazardous, Toxic and Radioactive Waste (HTRW) work in the U.S. are sought to team up with the Korean contractors prequalified by FED.Services may include but not be limited to environmental compliance assessments, environmental planning studies, environmental master plans, remedial investigation, feasibility studies, natural resources management, scientific and/or technological studies, biological studies, HTRW studies, site investigations, remedial action, and other related environmental services.

The Government may excise the option yearly for a maximum cumulative contract amount of $14,250,000. If the $4,750,000 is not reached within the basic year or option year, the Government may accumulate and apply the balance to other option years without exceeding the maximum total of $14,250,000 for the three year contract period, provided that the option year or years are exercised by the Government. The Government obligates itself to a minimum contract amount of $2,500.00 per year during the term of the contract. The contractor shall be required to conform to a separate scope of work for each delivery order.
