It is estimated thatindividual task orders will range from $10,000 to $15,000,000 and may include multiple,large site investigations and or cleanups with concurrent performance schedules.SCOPE OF WORK In support of the NASA/KSC Environmental Assurance Branch the firm shall provide thenecessary resources to develop and implement contamination assessment and remediationrequirements for Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) sites and petroleumcontamination for NASA on KSC and CCAFS. KSC and CCAFS are regulated under the ResourceConservation Recovery Act (RCRA) Permit which includes Hazardous and Solid WasteAmendments (HSWA) corrective action requirements. As such, HSWA corrective actionsrequirements are managed under a compliance schedule known as a Corrective ActionManagement Plan (CAMP). The CAMP contains regulatory compliance dates that includestipulated penalties for failure to meet required dates for submittal of RCRA correctiveaction documents. Regulatory documents include SWMU Assessment Reports, ConfirmatorySampling Work Plans, Confirmatory Sampling Reports, RCRA Facility Investigation WorkPlans, RCRA Facility Investigations, Corrective Measures Study Work Plans, CorrectiveMeasures Studies, Statements of Basis, Corrective Measures Designs, Corrective MeasuresImplementation Reports, Interim Measure Work Plans, and Interim Measure Reports. Thesetasks will require working with the NASA/KSC Environmental Assurance Branch, other NASAcontractor organizations, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), andU.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).REQUIREMENTS The firm will be required to perform tasks which primarily include the preparation andimplementation of Solid Waste Management Unit Assessments, Confirmation Sampling WorkPlans, Confirmation Sampling Investigations and Reports, RCRA Facility Investigations(RFI) with RFI Work Plans and RFI Reports (including human health and ecological riskassessments), Corrective Measures Work Plans and Studies, and Statements of Basis. Thefirm will be required to accomplish each RFI in accordance with applicable U.S.Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Florida Department of Environmental Protection(FDEP) RCRA and TSCA directives. The firm shall also prepare Interim or Interim MeasureCorrective Measure Work Plans, Corrective Measure Implementation Reports for requiredsoil and/or groundwater cleanup and perform groundwater monitoring and operations andmaintenance of installed groundwater cleanup systems.
