Description

THIS IS A Sources Sought Notice ONLY. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) desires to procure technical experts will provide advice and counsel to the Groundwater Transfer and Injection Project (GTIP) Phase 2 team at Agricultural Research Service (ARS) National Sedimentation Laboratory (NSL), collaborators, and stakeholders in selecting appropriate sites and creating a most probable cost estimate for the project. During GTIP Phase 2, the project will be expanded by establishing a distributed network of extraction and injection wells that combine riverbank filtration and groundwater transfer and injection in the Mississippi River Valley Alluvial Aquifer. Technical expertise concerning engineering, environmental, hydrogeological, geophysical, operational, cost, and logistical considerations will be provided to the project team through periodic virtual and on-site meetings with ARS personnel, collaborators, and stakeholders, including reviewing and assessing documentation necessary for developing the plans. Onsite geophysical investigations of sites of interest identified in the planning process will also be conducted. USDA desires to award a single firm fixed priced award on a small business set-aside basis, provided 2 or more qualified small businesses respond to this sources sought synopsis with information sufficient to support a set-aside.
