The Department of the Navy, Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC), has a continuing requirement for Environmental Science and Engineering Services (ESEC) for the Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) Worldwide.

• The tasks under this contract will fall into the following categories:
• Studies, Testing, and Design of Improved Techniques for Site Investigation, Risk Assessment, and Remedy Selection, Remedy Design, and Remedy Operation/Long-Term Management.
• Testing and using improved methodologies, such as high-resolution sampling, for determining the nature, extent, and risk of contamination in soil, groundwater, and sediment.  Site investigation and risk assessment associated with legacy and emerging contaminants (e.g., PFAS) and emerging issues (e.g., vapor intrusion).  Using superior understanding of effectiveness and limitations of remediation technologies to determine the feasibility of various physical, chemical, biological, and administrative solutions for site cleanup. Examples of studies that may be performed include: site characterization, evaluating technology effectiveness, groundwater modeling, human health and ecological risk assessments, planning and design, technical support for system operation and maintenance and long-term management, and performance evaluation of site cleanup or remedial measures.
• Innovative Technology Development, Demonstration, and Validation.
• Conceptualizing, planning, and implementing innovative environmental technologies, techniques, and strategies, with an emphasis on site remediation.  Includes bench-scale and laboratory or field pilot-scale testing, especially when conventional technologies are likely to be less effective and/or more costly for site cleanup. Incorporate green and sustainable practices into the execution of the specific project(s).  The purpose of the tasks in this category are to support improved full-scale design of environmental remedies.
• Technical Consultation, Optimization, and Performance Evaluation:  Provide technical consultation, troubleshooting, and review support for environmental projects, systems, and other contractors engaged in environmental programs, particularly environmental restoration.  Subject matter expertise is especially required in the areas of advanced bioremediation, monitored natural attenuation, groundwater-surface water interactions, vapor intrusion, management of emerging contaminants, such as PFAS and radiological elements and compounds, and munitions response.  Technical consultation services may include, but is not limited to, the following:
•  Provide expert guidance on originating or updating, work plans, guidance documents, installation/program orders, memorandums, training publications, and other publications that may be considered mission essential.
• Provide solutions to identified problems of environmental concern that require action as dictated by federal, state, local, and/or installation policy.
• Participate as technological experts in technical discussions on the government’s behalf.
• Provide review and optimization of remedy selection, remedial design and operation of remedial systems.
• Provide onsite technical support.
• Participate on Navy and multi-agency optimization and review teams.
• Research, Development, Testing, and Evaluation (RDT&E): RDT&E of innovative environmental technologies and methodologies, particularly in environmental restoration.  RDT&E efforts may address challenging, immediate or long-term environmental issues, as well as emerging contaminants and pathways.
• Administrative Support: Provide the following services in support of environmental programs for an array of environmental documents, technologies, sites, and programs: logistics support, planning, coordination and hosting of training events and meetings, planning, procurement, archiving, training, and cost estimation. Services to be provided may include but is not limited to the following: Complete/update draft and final reports, work plans (including 5-year plans), manuals, presentations, publications, and other documents as required by or for: (1) local, state, and federal regulators, environmental or otherwise; (2) a specified DoD installation; (3) public outreach; (4) training/technology transfer to DoD personnel; and (5) any other person, entity, program, or mission outlined in an accepted SOW/PWS.  Reproduce publications, compact disks (CDs), brochures, training manuals, and any other media deemed necessary as outlined in an acceptable SOW/PWS.
• Technology Transfer, Outreach, and Training:  Provide planning, administrative, technology transfer, public outreach, and training and instructional support for environmental programs, particularly environmental restoration.  .  These outreach activities may be directed towards Navy, Marine Corps, and BRAC personnel, as well as other federal and state agencies, private contractors, and general public, all of whom may be stakeholders in the success of the Navy’s environmental restoration and associated programs.  Of particular interest is the ability to leverage new and old media, such as classroom instruction, webinars, websites, and stakeholder meetings.
• Associated Services for Environmental Programs:  Provide consultation, assessment, and technical solutions for green and sustainable remediation, impacts of sea level rise and extreme weather events, active range sustainability, sustainable water resources management, environmental compliance (e.g., storm water, wastewater, and hazardous waste management), energy efficiency, natural resources management, systems that aid in the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, water and wastewater treatment systems, LEED and health and safety programs at Navy, Marine Corps, and other Federal installations.  Work may involve development, optimization, management, and/or updates of work plans, design documents and other planning documents for specified projects.
