Additional National Environmental Policy Act Compliance Strategies & Documentation Support under the National Nuclear Security Administration's Task Order GS-23F0187P/DE-AT01-07NA28187

The Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Office of Fissile Materials Disposition is extending a contract originally awarded to Mele Associates, Inc. under the Multiple-Award Schedule Program. The contract, identified as Task Order DE-AT01-07NA28187, was initially awarded in April 2007 with an original value of nearly $26 million and a performance period that ended in April 2012. Due to the ongoing work on the Final Surplus Plutonium Disposition Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS), the contract period has been extended twice—most recently from September 2013 to September 2014. This extension allows Mele to complete the necessary SEIS analysis related to surplus plutonium disposition. The current contract ceiling amount of $25,982,881 will be increased by approximately $405,707, raising the new ceiling to $26,388,588.14 to accommodate the extension and additional work. There are currently over $650,000 available under the existing ceiling for this extension period, with total estimated costs for the final 12 months projected at around $1 million. The contracting activity managing this modification is the NNSA Contracts and Procurement Division, with the place of performance in Washington, DC. The primary point of contact is Ariane S. Kaminsky, the Contracting Officer overseeing the task order modification.
