- Description
- Request for Information This is a Request for Information - This synopsis is for information and planning purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. No contract will be awarded as a result of this Sources Sought announcement. The United States Geological Survey (USGS), Office of Acquisition and Grants (OAG) is soliciting information from qualified sources; the results of this announcement will be evaluated to determine if there are businesses capable of meeting the requirement in accordance with the attached technical specifications. The USGS is actively engaged in studies where groundwater availability is a concern, and airborne transport and exposure risks associated with trace elements are unknown. The studies share a common goal of evaluating water resource-scarce regions in the arid west; however, each study differs in sampling nature and requires a vendor that can handle a variety of sample mediums and diversity in analyses. The success of these studies depends on reliable and affordable analytical services that can provide timely results. The USGS, OAG seeks responses from vendors who can provide services for the following: 1) high-quality, precise measurements of tritium (3H) and other dissolved gases (isotopes of noble gases, and environmental tracers including methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) to determine groundwater age, transit times, and recharge conditions, and 2) timely, reproducible, high-quality measurements of strontium isotopes (87Sr/86Sr) in groundwater and trace elements in groundwater, dust, and plant material to further characterize groundwater age, system flow paths, and mixing and to determine dispersal of uranium and other priority pollutants and evaluate potential exposure risks. NAICS Code: 541380 - Testing Laboratories and Services, associated size standard $19 million. PSC Codes: B529 Special Studies/Analysis - Scientific Data B533 Special Studies/Analysis - Water Quality All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, which shall be considered by the Government. The information received in response to this notice will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. Responses must include complete description of capabilities to be provided and contain sufficient technical information to allow agency analysis to establish bona fide capabilities. This is not a request for quotation, and the Government does not intend to pay for information received. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Respondents will not be notified of the results of any Government evaluation of the information received. Capability statements shall only be accepted through email addressed to jongjoco@usgs.gov. All statement documents required by this notice must be uploaded and received in their entirety no later than February 14, 2025 at 1200 hours Eastern.
