- NOTICE OF INTENT: The United States Department of Energy (DOE) intends to extend the current environmental remediation services contract with LATA/Parallax Portsmouth, LLC (LPP) at the Portsmouth site to continue remediation and disposition of specific areas by removing legacy waste, initiating facility decontamination and decommissioning (D&D), disposition of highly enriched uranium, and operating the site waste storage facilities in accordance with all the applicable laws, regulations, DOE Directives, permits, and agreements and Orders. Disposition is defined in the specific applicable Orders and Agreements. The proposed contract extension is for 8 months from July 1, 2010 through February 28, 2011. Environmental remediation services at the Portsmouth site as listed are contemplated as part of the contract extension. These services include, but are not limited to the following: - Quadrant II remedial actions that include removal of the source contaminant at the X-701B groundwater plume - Removal of the foundation, neutralization pit, and characterization of the contaminated soils at X-760 inactive facilities - Repackaging and disposition of uranium materials - Soil characterization of the X-630 and the X-633 areas - Soil characterization and remediation of the X-747K area - Demolition and characterization of the X-103, X-230J9, X-334, X-344B, X-605H, -I, -J, and X-630, inactive facilities - Post remediation surveillance and maintenance of groundwater treatment facilities - Environmental monitoring and reporting of on-site and off-site air, soils and water - National Environmental Policy Act compliance, cultural resource surveys including but not limited to Phase II Archeological surveys, and radiological surveys in support of building returns from United States Enrichment Corporation, and reindustrialization/reuse of equipment and real property - Disposition of highly enriched uranium including the oversight of the D&D of the process line at Nuclear Fuel Services (NFS) - Maintenance and disposition of existing uranium materials - Down blending and disposal of the Filter Ash and Oil Leak Gunk - Disposition of two (2) sealed sources located in the X-103 Building - Disposition of approximately 300 small cylinders, Phase III - Cleanup and disposal of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) activities - Rail upgrade including rails, scales, all-purpose weather protection structure - Project Management System - Maintaining the Integrated Safety Management System (ISMS) and the Environment, Safety, and Health (ES&H) Program - Administrative services not limited to management, public affairs, financial, legal, procurement, program management, taxes, public information, support to DOE, Site Specific Advisory Board support, human resource management, and diversity commensurate to support the contractor's scope of work - Transportation services including, but not limited to, shipments of hazardous or radioactive waste generated from the D&D and remediation activities, laboratory or sample shipments, required scale calibrations, vehicle and equipment maintenance, and management - Records management, safeguards and security, and property management The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 6.302. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is the Competition in Contracting Act (41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1), implemented under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a) which authorizes other than full and open competition when the supplies or services required by the agency are available from only one responsible source, and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The present contact with LPP is due to expire on June 30, 2010. The proposed contract extension will allow environmental remediation activities to continue at the Portsmouth site until completion of the on-going D&D procurement and transition to a new contractor. The extension will help stabilize the current workforce at the Portsmouth site by avoiding layoffs as well as reducing severance costs that would be borne by the Government. As far as DOE is aware, LPP as the incumbent site environmental remediation contractor is the only contractor who has unique qualifications to continue the necessary environmental remediation activities at the Portsmouth site without a break in service until award is made of the on-going competitive. DOE anticipates award will be made in the 1st quarter of Fiscal Year 2011 as published on the DOE EM Acquisition Forecast website (last updated 10/13/2009). THIS IS NOT A FORMAL REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS UNDER FAR PART 12, 15, OR AN INVITATION FOR BIDS UNDER FAR PART 14. IF PARTIES CHOOSE TO RESPOND, ANY COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION OF DATA OR ANY OTHER COSTS INCURRED IN RESPONSE TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE RESPONDENT AND WILL NOT BE REIMBURSED BY THE GOVERNMENT. Interested parties believing they have all of the capabilities may submit capability statements to provide all of the services, including a demonstration of the ability to meet all of the needs identified above within the required timeframes. The capabilities statement describing and demonstrating the above shall be submitted within 15 days of publication of this notice to the following address: U.S. Department of Energy, Portsmouth/Paducah Project Office, 1017 Majestic Drive, Suite 200, Lexington, KY 40513, ATTENTION: Robert J.
