5. The Qualified Facilities List published on the DLA Disposition Services website to identify
disposal facilities for PFAS waste. We found that the PFAS Disposal List on that page states that the facilities named there are the sole authorized recipients for the
final disposal of PFAS waste, and all of those facilities are located in the United States.
On the other hand, the PWS states that all waste under this contract shall be disposed of or recycled only at DLA-approved TSDFs located in the Government of Japan (GOJ). The two documents appear to point in different directions for PFAS waste.
For CLINs PF20, PF21, and PF22 under this contract, please confirm:
6. May PFAS waste be incinerated at a GOJ-licensed facility in
Japan as final disposal, subject to QFL approval of that facility?
Yes, PWS- Section 2.4 Base CLINs PF20, PF21, and PF22 for incineration. But must follow the PS- Certificate of Disposal/Destruction Required. See Section 2.4. PWS.
7. Or does the PFAS Disposal List on the QFL website apply to this
contract, requiring final disposal in the United States?
No, the QFL restricted TDSF PFAS Disposal listing is for United States Contract.
