AI Contract Overview

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary sought technical services focused on the documentation and management of Submerged Cultural Resources, particularly related to historical shipwrecks within the sanctuary. The contract was intended exclusively for small businesses and involved a variety of tasks such as conducting historical research to identify known and potential shipwreck sites, developing archaeological research designs, and performing field investigations using side scan sonar and SCUBA diving. The contractor was also responsible for maintaining detailed logs of all field activities, updating the sanctuary’s existing historic shipwreck and GIS databases with newly acquired data, preparing draft nominations for National Register of Historic Places designations for specific shipwrecks, conducting background research for a National Maritime Landscape proposal, and supporting the organization of a symposium and exhibit development. Additionally, the contractor was to assist with designing and developing website content related to the shipwrecks. This contract was structured as a one-year agreement with options to extend for two additional years and was a continuation of previous work involving historical data compilation and GIS database enhancement. The solicitation was issued through the Department of Commerce’s NOAA office in Norfolk, Virginia, with Teresa L. Watson serving as the contract specialist. However, it is important to note that this requirement was ultimately canceled in its entirety through a contract modification.
