This is a notice issued by Westinghouse Savannah River Company (WSRC), management and operating contractor for the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Site (SRS) near Aiken, South Carolina. The purpose of this notice is to determine public interest in a nonexclusive license for the new and improved BaroBall valve with flow measurement capability. Barometric pumping is a remediation technique that removes volatile contaminates from soil in the vadose zone, above the water table. Scientists have developed a control valve that increases the efficiency of this barometric pumping. The improved device maintains the salient features of the existing BaroBall valve and incorporates the ability to measure the volume flow rate. Interested parties will be provided with a technical brief and instructions on applying for a license to this technology. A typical license agreement will contain license fees and running royalties. Responses to this notice must be received by May 12, 2000.
