- Description
- This synopsis is being issued as Full and Open Competition. The Forest Service intends to award no more than 4 IDIQ contracts. The scope of this contract is to implement Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) actions at abandoned mine sites. These response actions address mine waste and contamination that is adversely impacting human health and/or the environment. Abandoned mine sites are not in typical HAZMAT environments. Mine sites are located in remote area often without radio or cell phone coverage and in extremely steep terrain. Project accomplishment is complicated by the limited access to mine sites, which is generally difficult since most sites are remote and at high elevations. Wildfires in mine areas can be very dangerous to crews at these sites since there is only one way out and communications are limited. Snow conditions often hide mine features such as vertical shafts and make the area slippery and dangerous. At many sites, the contractor must enter underground workings to determine flow characteristics of acid mine drainage. Health and safety of the contractor's employees and government oversight is paramount to successful completion of the project. Qualified contractors must have experience with mining processes involving the extraction of metals from ore bodies and understand the relationship of mine waste and contamination. The on-the-ground activities at abandoned mine sites may include all of the following phases: • Abbreviated Preliminary Assessment • Site Inspection • Engineering Evaluation and Cost Analysis • Removal Design • Time-Critical or Non-Time-Critical Removal Action • Post-Removal Operations, Maintenance, and Monitoring CERCLA activities associated with abandoned mines are generally addressed through the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (National Contingency Plan (NCP)), 40 CFR 300. The solicitation process will follow the requirements of Public Law 92-582 ("Brooks Act") procedures. We anticipate issuing the solicitation documents within the next 30 days.
