Notice of Intent: Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant Decontamination and Decommissioning (D&D) Contract Extension   3

The Department of Energy (DOE) Portsmouth/Paducah Project Office (PPPO) intends to issue a noncompetitive modification to Contract Number DE-AC30-10CC40017. This modification will extend the period of performance for up to six (6) months from April 1, 2024 to September 30, 2024 with Fluor-BWXT Portsmouth, LLC (FBP) for Portsmouth Decontamination & Decommissioning (D&D) services at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PGDP) in Piketon, Ohio. FBP is comprised of Fluor Federal Services, Inc. and B&W Technical Services Group, Inc. The Portsmouth D&D contract provides deactivation, demolition, waste management, and environmental remediation services at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant. The scope for Portsmouth D&D includes, but not limited to, surveillance and maintenance of facilities, deactivation of facilities and systems, demolition of process and support facilities, remediation of contaminated soils and groundwater, disposition of waste, providing infrastructure and emergency services, dispositioning uranium materials, and land transfer. The objectives of the PORTS D&D project are to eliminate potential environmental threats and reduce the DOE footprint through property transfer to the local community. Successfully accomplishing these objectives will reduce DOE's lifecycle costs and prepare the site for reindustrialization. The incumbent contractor is the only responsible source that can reasonably satisfy these requirements pending the competitive award of the Operations and Site Mission Support (OSMS) contract, which is currently pending at the Environmental Management Consolidated Business Center (EMCBC). Due to the transitioning of some work from current Portsmouth D&D contract to the future OSMS contract, the current Portsmouth D&D contract needs to be extended until the OSMS procurement is completed.

In accordance with Competition in Contracting Act, 41 U.S.C. 3304 (a)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), other than full and open competition is authorized when there is only one responsible source and no other services will satisfy agency requirements.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 562910.
