F -- SOURCES SOUGHT FOR SURFACTANT ENHANCED AQUIFIER REMEDIATION (SEAR) FOR DNAPL REMOVAL SOL N47408-97-R-2311 SOURCES SOUGHT DUE 101097 POC Purchasing Agent, SYLVIA ALVAREZ, 805-982-2119 THIS IS A MARKET SURVEY FOR WRITTEN INFORMATION ONLY. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION ANNOUNCEMENT FOR PROPOSALS AND NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO REIMBURSEMENT WILL BE MADE FOR ANY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING INFORMATION IN RESPONSE TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT AND ANY FOLLOW-UP INFORMATION REQUESTS. NO TELEPHONE CALLS WILL BE ACCEPTED REQUESTING A BID PACKAGE OR SOLICITATION. THERE IS NO BID PACKAGE OR SOLICITATION! THIS IS A MARKET SURVEY WHERE THE GOVERNMENT IS SEEKING WRITTEN INFORMATION ONLY. IN ORDER TO PROTECT THE PROCUREMENT INTEGRITY OF ANY FUTURE PROCUREMENT, IF ANY, THAT MAY ARISE FROM THIS MARKET SURVEY, INFORMATION REGARDING THE TECHNICAL POINT OF CONTACT WILL NOT BE GIVEN AND NO APPOINTMENTS FOR PRESENTATIONS WILL BE MADE. The Navy is seeking a source to conduct a surfactant flood test for DNAPL (Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid) removal at a North Carolina site. The respondent should have a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms underlying the usage of surfactants foraquifer remediation and be able to successfully execute a designed surfactant flood test with minimum technical guidance from the Navy. The responsibilities for this surfactant test will include: interfacing with the surfactant test design team to develop a test workplan; obtaining permits for surfactant injection; mobilizing/demobilizing field equipment; arranging water, utilities and other logistics; preparing surfactant solutions; conducting the surfactant test as laid out in the workplan; and analyzing the field data to determine surfactant recoveries and mass removals of DNAPL. Respondents should meet the following qualifications: (a) experience with surfactant-enhanced aquifer remediation (SEAR) as demonstrated by the completion of two unrelated surfactant tests for DNAPL removal, one of these sites having chlorinated solvent contamination (b) expertise in the subsurface behavior of DNAPL as evidenced by participation on two projects to characterize a site for DNAPL contamination, and (c) proficiency in surfactant chemistry as applied to environmental remediation indicated by a minimum of 3 years of research activity in this area. Knowledge of techniques for surfactant recovery and reuse is highly desirable. Interested respondents should submit a data package that includes references to document their qualifications. Submissions which are incomplete in experience information or supporting documentation will not be considered. Respondents should submit references, publications, and other suTHIS IS A MARKET SURVEY FOR WRITTEN INFORMATION ONLY.
