The purpose of this procurement is to obtain analytical, technical, and management services that support remediation efforts to plan, implement, and evaluate programs, strategies, guidance, and regulations under the Agency's CERCLA/ SARA of 1986, new initiatives under CERCLA and the Superfund Re-authorization Act, LUST, OPA, and RCRA Corrective Action. EPA will use this contract to acquire assistance in developing options and evaluating nationwide implementation strategies, monitoring regional and state activities, and providing enforcement support.

Offerors are strongly advised to read the Conflict of Interest Provisons/Clauses in the RFP since these are significant and differ from previous contracts as well as from the draft COI Plan which was already released on May 7, 2001. A revised Conflict of Interest Plan will be released shortly. RAC, ESS, and REPA prime and sub-contractors may not be eligible for award of this contract unless, prior to selection, inherent COI issues have been avoided, neutralized, or mitigated to the satisfaction of the Contracting Officer. Any offerors who are or believe they may be affected by this restriction are strongly urged to file a disclosure statement with the Contracting Officer as soon as possible after the draft RFP is released but no later than 10 days after the formal RFP is released. Filing a disclosure statement early will allow the government time to review and work with offerors to avoid, neutralize, and/or mitigate any conflict of interest issues.
