The contractor shall also prepare a Community Relations Plan (CRP) in accordance with the NCP. Deliverables include (but are not limited to) providing (1) a Draft and Final Project Schedule; (2) Review the Final Preliminary Assessment Report, Sampling and Analysis Plan and Draft Site Investigation Report and propose, with reasoning, any reclassification of sample locations between Categories or other modification of initial Category land areas used to perform the PA/SI; (3) Draft Streamlined Risk Evaluation.

PROJECT AREA: The USDA-Forest Service (USDA-FS) Viburnum Trend Mining Area ("Site" or "VT") consists of National Forest System (NFS) lands distributed over several hundred square miles with mixed ownership (federal, private, and other). The work specified in this Statement of Work relates to USDA-Forest Service lands only. The Site is included in two Mark Twain National Forest (MTNF) Purchase Units: the Salem/Potosi District and the Fredericktown District. The Salem/Potosi Unit encompasses land in parts of Crawford, Dent, Iron, Reynolds, Shannon, and Washington Counties. The Fredericktown Unit is located east of the Glover Smelter, within Iron and Madison Counties. The MTNF is managed for multiple uses including: outdoor recreation, range, timber, wilderness, minerals, watershed, and habitat for fish and wildlife. Within the MTNF boundary, most private property (non-NFS) is concentrated along major roads or along stream valleys. The Viburnum Trend or "New Lead Belt", which lies beneath the Salem/Potosi Unit, is an area of lead, zinc, copper, and silver mineralization. The ore body was discovered in 1955 and is over 500 feet (ft.) below ground surface (bgs). Seven of the 10 developed mines are currently in operation within the Salem/Potosi Unit boundary. Two smelters, Buick and Glover, were opened in 1968 but neither is currently operating. The Buick smelter is located within the Salem/Potosi Unit boundary. The Glover smelter is located west of the Fredericktown Unit. A Preliminary Assessment (PA) was completed in September 2011, and included a Sampling and Analysis Plan for a Site Investigation (SI). The SI was authorized and the SI Report is in draft development as of present. The primary potential releases investigated were elevated levels of lead, zinc, and cadmium. Both the PA and SI information will be available to potential proposers to assist in response to the Request for Proposal for a VT Engineering Evaluation and Cost Analysis. A copy of the PA and available SI information will be made available as an attachment to the solicitation when issued. Copies WILL NOT be provided at this time. Offers are due no later than 3:00pm (Central Time) on Monday July 9, 2012 as outlined in the solicitation documents.
