- Description
- The U.S. Geological Survey intends to make a non-competitive award to Picarro, Inc. in Santa Clara, CA for Water Isotope Analyzer to be delivered to USGS, 12201 Sunrise Valley Dr. MS-954, Reston, VA 20192 by 10/21/2011. This requirement has no option periods. Picarro, Inc. Is the only known manufacturer of this equipment that has the capable of analysis of oxygen (180/160) and hydrogen (D/H) isotopic ratios ofwater found in a variety of matrices including liquid water, water vapor, pore water in soil and mine tailings, mineral-hydration water, plant water or similar biological water types, for which dissolved organic carbon may be a significant trace contaminant, via infrared absorption cavity ring-down spectrometry. One major use will be the investigation of the geochemical evolution of vadose (unsaturated) zone water in mine tailings. Additionally, the isotopic variation of water will be used to evaluate hydrologic effects on mine drainage chemistry and mineral hydration and dehydration reactions in surficial environments. In accordance with FAR 5.207, all responsible sources may submit a bid, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency, however, THIS NOTICE IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. The Government intends to award this requirement noncompetitively IAW FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). FAX response to 703.648.7367 or email to: abenton@usgs.gov.
