NAICS: 541620. Post Closure Management Review and Recommendations for Continued Post Closure Obligations, Estimation of Clean Closure Costs, and Appraisal of Leased Tribal Trust Lands. Legacy Mineral Beneficiation Waste Disposal Site, Shivwits Indian Reservation of the State of Utah, Washington County. The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) Western Regional Office (WRO) is soliciting professional services and technical support completed for tasks and authorized, optional work in accordance to the standards and specifications and contractual conditions established in this scope of work (SOW) for Environmental and Real Estate services. These services and support are provided to the WRO and servicing BIA field Office, Southern Paiute Agency (SPA) for the Shivwits Band (Band) of Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah (the Tribe). The environmental enforcement regulatory agency is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 8, RCRA / CERCLA Technical Enforcement Program, Division of Enforcement, Compliance and Environmental Justice, and the Hecla Mining Company (Hecla) is the lessee of the subject property. Work entails field work and meetings in the vicinity of St. George Utah, comprehensive review of engineering design and construction documents, administrative, enforcement and compliance records, inspection reports, environmental studies and other documentation provided to support development, presentation, delivery and acceptance of service products and performance of work outlined and detailed in Part 3 of this SOW. Service products include: (1) Environmental Risk and Impact Analysis and Long Term Monitoring and Maintenance Plan (LTMP), developed for inspection and preventative maintenance and environmental monitoring for continued post closure care at Hecla's former Apex Facility Pond #2 Mineral Beneficiation Waste Disposal Site (Pond #2) located on tribal trust lands leased to Hecla by the Band; (2) an Engineer's Cost Estimate, detailing assumption and financial resources required to clean close Pond #2, eliminating this encumbrance to tribal trust land assets, and; (3) One appraisal assignment with two market values for two Scenarios. The purpose of the appraisal assignment is to have the appraiser/contractor provide an opinion of Market Value on trust or restricted tribal lands for adjustment of Hecla's annual payment to the Band for the continued use of Pond 2 in present condition. Offerors are advised of requirement for performance of additional services, as directed, pursuant to exercise of Optional Services Clause (Task #4) of this requirement. Optional services may be exercised at BIA's discretion, at any time within stated performance period of the contract, provided availability of funds. These services may only be authorized by the BIA Contracting Officer (CO), in writing, or his/her designee. Unit prices for all direct and indirect costs required to fully execute these Optional services, as described, must be included in prospective Offerors' proposal. See Part 8 of this Section for listing of Optional Services. The Shivwits Band of Paiutes (the Band) is one of the five constituent bands of the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah (the Tribe). The Band occupies a contiguous parcel of federally-reserved trust land within Washington County. The reservation was established in 1891 following the Band's federal recognition that same year, and included 100 acres of the Band's aboriginal territory along the Santa Clara River near Shivwits, located approximately 10 miles west of St. George, Utah in Washington County. The Shivwits Indian Reservation today totals 28,229 acres. The Shivwits Reservation provides the Band, as beneficiary, with capital endowment of natural resources and capacity to pursue economic ventures for resource development and revenue for support of tribal services and infrastructure, opportunity for employment and training, and other tangible benefits. The U.S. Department of Interior's BIA is responsible for the administration and management of subsurface minerals estates held in trust for the Band by the United States. Moreover, federal Indian trust responsibilities include promotion of economic opportunities, and the protection and improvement of the Band's natural resource trust assets. Fiduciary support for economic development and environmental protection are extended to the Band (and tribal trust assets) by the Real Estate Services, the Division of Environmental, Safety, and Cultural Resources Management (DESCRM), and other programs of WRO and SPA, located in Phoenix, Arizona, and St. George, Utah, respectively. In 1983, the Band entered into a Lease Agreement authorizing rental of tribal trust land for construction and operation of a mineral processing facility to extract gallium and germanium from ore mined at a nearby mine site. This Agreement, and subsequent Agreements and Amendments thereafter, were approved by BIA in support of the Band's economic interests and capital development. Following commencement of milling operations, the Lessee developed a series of surface impoundment, or ponds, for retention of tailings, processing fluids and other mineral beneficiation wastes. One of these impoundments would later be converted from a waste storage site and used by Hecla, the current Lessee of the property for the permanent disposal of mill and mining wastes generated during the term of the lease, contaminated soil, and other wastes from cleanup and reclamation of the greater Facility property. This impoundment is referenced as the Hecla Apex Facility Pond #2 (Pond 2, or the "Site"), and is the basis of solicited services required herein. The St. George Mining Company (SGMC) entered into a 25-year Lease Agreement with the Band for lease of approximately one hundred acres of tribal trust land for construction and operation of mineral processing facility, the "SGMC" Apex Facility, for extraction of gallium and germanium from copper ore mined from the nearby Apex Mine. This leased area is referred to as the Apex Property (the Property); the lease designated use of thirty (30) acres for production and seventy (70) acres for general storage and waste disposal. INTERESTED VENDORS MUST USED THE SEARCH INTERFACE AT https://www.fedconnect.net/ TO LOCATE THE SOLICITATION PACKAGE. PLEASE FURNISH QUOTATIONS NO LATER THAN JUNE 26, 2013, BY 17:00 ET.

NAICS: 562910. Contractor to perform landfill maintenance, operations, and sampling at the Joint Readiness Training Center and Folk Polk LA. THIS PROCUREMENT IS A TOTAL SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE. Submit the Price and Technical proposals electronically via email to Kendra.A.Freymuth@usace.army.mil. THE OFFER CLOSES JUNE 27, 2013, AT 2:00 PM CENTRAL STANDARD TIME. The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform landfill maintenance, operations, and sampling, as defined in this Performance Work Statement except for those items specified as government furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in the contract. 1.1.1 Chaffee Road Landfill: Army Environmental Database-Restoration (AEDB-R) site Polk-09: is located west of Chaffee Road, and is a closed state-permitted landfill of municipal waste generated from housing and post activities. Elevated concentrations of barium, chloride, iron, and manganese had been detected in the groundwater. Operations at this site ceased on September 30, 1993. The site is currently under a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Closure Plan approved by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ). On November 21, 2001, the LDEQ sent Fort Polk a letter to discontinue groundwater monitoring and to plug and abandon the monitoring wells; however, the closure plan still includes 30 years (ending 2019) of maintenance of the final cover system to include cap maintenance, mowing, annual inspection and reporting, storm water management, erosion repair, maintenance of the gas collection system, and land Use Controls (LUCs) (e.g., fencing). 1.1.2 Mill Creek Landfill: AEDB-R site Polk-08: [also known as MCL or SWMU-17] is a closed landfill that is located in the Intensive Use Area on Mill Creek Road. This landfill (approximately 45.5 acres measured on a flat plain), is located on Mill Creek Road. It was used to dispose of hazardous waste and general industrial trash and domestic trash and garbage. The Mill Creek Landfill (MCL) covers an area approximately 35 acres. Because hazardous waste had been disposed of at the site, an impermeable cover and clay cap were constructed on top. Project management, environmental sampling, periodic surveying, cap integrity inspection and maintenance, wildlife control, fence repair, grass mowing, fertilization, seeding and grounds maintenance activities are required. These actions are needed to demonstrate to the State of Louisiana that the corrective measures taken at the landfill is protective of human health and the environment. 1.1.3 Construction Debris Landfill: This landfill also known as AEDB-R site Polk-11 is (approximately 6.45 acres measured on a flat plain), is located inside the Intensive Use Area of Fort Polk on Mill Creek Road. It was used for disposal of construction debris in the 1970s. It was a common practice at the time to construct landfills on ridges in this area. Types of waste disposed in the landfill are documented to have been tires, lumber, concrete, empty paint cans, and various structural metals. During the 1995-1996 RCRA Facitily Investigation (RFI), several seeps were found at the perimeter of the landfill and analysis showed the presence of arsenic, iron, lead, and manganese. Water from the seeps was deemed an ecological risk and an interim measure was implemented to keep the water from surfacing. A network of trenches, piping, and leach fields was constructed to channel seep water underground, where natural attenuation occurs. Fort Polk is required by LDEQ to collect water samples from these leach fields on a quarterly basis. A minimal vegetation cover at the site must be maintained by seeding and fertilization, eroded areas must be repaired and the drain lines must be kept open to allow seep water to flow through it without interference from blockages. Warning signs are posted around the Construction Debris Landfill and must be maintained. 1.1.4 CCSWMU 23: AEDB-R site CCSWMU23: the 2600 Block Vehicle Maintenance Unit is located in the 2600 block of the south Fort Polk cantonment area, northeast of the intersection of Georgia and Mississippi avenues. The area of interest is grass covered and lies at the southern boundary of the site. Corrective action measures were required under the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) of the Fort Polk RCRA Subpart X Operating Permit No. LA 0124022725-OP-RN-1. Hazardous materials and RCRA listed waste components used at the site include leaded gasoline, solvents, paints, etc. Sources of contamination at this Solid Waste Management Unit (SWMU) include waste petroleum, oil, and lubricants (POL) and fuels released during vehicle maintenance activities. Benzene is present at the site above the regulatory action limits. Natural attenuation at the site consists of analyzing groundwater from four wells on a semiannual schedule. 1.1.5 CCBldg1725: AEDB-R site CCBldg1725: the Army Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) Car Care Center is located in the 1700 Block of the South Fort Polk cantonment area. The site lies in the median of the boulevard formed by Alabama and Georgia Avenues, one block north of their intersection with Louisiana Avenue. Between 1950 and 2006 the AAFES operated a convenience store / service station at the site. A fuel distribution network of underground storage tanks (USTs), underground pipes and fuel dispensers were present at the site. A separate building (B-1726) was used as a garage for auto repair and maintenance. New USTs were installed at the site in 1998. Fueling operations were halted in 2006 and the newer USTs were removed without incident. All buildings have been demolished and the site is now a vacant piece of land. Soil sampling after UST removal confirmed that residual hydrocarbons were present above Risk Evaluation/Corrective Action Program (RECAP) limits. Site investigation (SI) results concluded that surface and subsurface contaminants existed at the site. An area of contaminated surface soil measuring 80 ft x 60 ft x 15 ft deep was excavated and hauled off-site in November 2010. The soil at the bottom of the excavation was treated with Oxygen Release Compound (ORC-Advanced) before being backfilled. The site will require semiannual monitoring for xylene contamination in the subsurface soil. SCOPE: Landfill maintenance and operations shall be conducted at the Chaffee Landfill at Fort Polk. Landfill maintenance, operations, and monitoring shall be conducted at the Mill Creek Landfill and the Construction Debris Landfill at Fort Polk. Soil sampling shall be conducted at CC Bldg 1725. Groundwater sampling shall be conducted at SWMU 23. Services include ground maintenance, repair work, inspections and surveillance, groundwater sampling, and soil sampling. The contractor shall accomplish compliance with the appropriate landfill closure permits and with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) letter documentation.

PASSIVE FLUX METERS (PFM) & FRACTURED ROCK PFM TO MEASURE GROUNDWATER VELOCITY (PRESOL)

NAICS: 541380. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) intends to procure on a sole source basis with the University of Florida support in conducting a research study using passive flux meters (PFM) and fractured rock passive flux meters (FRPRM) to measure groundwater flow velocity and mass flux in a fractured bedrock setting and to compare the results to current technology. The study will be implemented at the San German Superfund site in Puerto Rico, where bedrock aquifers are an important source of drinking water. Services required include consultation on field test design, designing and building the PFMs and FRPFM, conducting field trials, analysis of samples, and consultation on resulting data. The purpose of the study is to test a new potential cost effective technique for the assessment of contaminated fractured rock aquifers because current technologies for fractured rock investigations are costly and difficult to implement. Available investigative methods cannot directly measure groundwater flow velocity and contaminant mass flux in fractured bedrock units, two parameters that are important in understanding the behavior of contaminants in the subsurface, assessing risk, and designing a successful remediation. The PFM and FRPRM are the only technologies that provide a means to simultaneously measure groundwater velocity and contaminant flux with depth in a single deployment. The PFM and FRPRM are patented technology. Therefore, the U.S. EPA needs to procure the services of the patent holder (the University of Florida) to use the technology in order to evaluate the application in a fractured rock setting. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATIONS. However, any firm that believes it is capable of meeting this EPA requirement must submit technical documentation to establish its assertion. This documentation must be submitted to the POC within 15 days of the electronic posting of this notice. Telephone requests will not be honored. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the EPA. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed on a sole source basis. The anticipated award date is July 18, 2013.
