SOL: 263-00(P)CS-0245 DUE: 060801 POC: Terrie Latimer, CO. (301) 435-4558, Jim Carscadden Project Officer (301) 496-3537 DESC: It is the intent of the National Institutes of Health to award a sole source contract to The Environmental Company to provide the following services in Buildings 17,17A,17B,18 and 21 and other associated buildings at the National Naval Medical Center (NNMC) in Bethesda Maryland. The contractor will provide Construction Quality Management services for the chemical, biological and radiological decontamination and decommissioning of the subject buildings. The buildings were constructed as biomedical research facilities beginning in 1942. The Naval Medical Research Institute operated in laboratory space in buildings 17,17A,17B and 18. Building 21 served as an animal care facility. The decontamination and decommissioning (D&D) will be done in accordance with a plan developed by The Environmental Company and approved by the Government and may include but not limited to mercury, mold, asbestos lead, lead paint PCB etc. Decontamination (which may include selective demolition of certain existing interior elements of the buildings) is required to provide a safe environment for future work. Upon completion, the contractor will provide a certification to the Government that the subject buildings were decontaminated in accordance with the accepted plan. (NOTE: the radiological portion of the plan will be satisfied by documentation received from the Naval Medical RC Radiation Safety Officer). The certification will be signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer or Certified Industrial Hygienist. The certification package shall include any required concurrences from the Montgomery County Department of Environmental Protection, Maryland Department of the Environment or the Environmental Protection Agency. Essential to the successful completion of the decontamination and decommissioning is a thorough knowledge of the subject buildings and a sound working relationship with both NIH and the NNMC.. The contractor must have such knowledge, experience, and have established a working relationship with both agencies. The NNMC may award other contracts to address issues related to the corrective action permit issued by the Environmental Protection Agency to the Department of the Navy for the National Naval Medical Center. All work in the subject buildings must be coordinated by the contractor to best meet the requirements of that permit. A fixed price contract is contemplated with an estimated value of between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000. See Numbered Note 22.
