Mercury-Free Material Compliance and Testing

All materials and processes under this subcontract must be free of mercury contamination to ensure environmental and safety compliance. If the use of mercury is deemed functionally necessary and explicitly approved, the contractor is required to conduct testing using EPA Method 1631 to verify mercury levels and confirm adherence to regulatory standards. This requirement applies across all phases of performance and is tied to the NAICS code 541620, indicating a focus on scientific research and development services. The work is to be performed at the designated place of performance in Sodus, New York, with the contract issued under the Department of Defense through SPRMM1 DLA Mechanicsburg. Compliance is mandatory, and any use of mercury must be justified, documented, and validated through approved testing protocols.
