OFFICIAL SOLICITATION, ANY AMENDMENTS, OR UPDATES CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.FBO.GOV, LISTED UNDER SOLICITATION # 1333MF19RNFFS0003 STATEMENT OF NEED 1.0 Organization 1.1 Organization: The Northwest Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC), of the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries, Department of Commerce (DOC), is a government agency charged with the mission of stewardship for living marine resources. 1.2 Background and Objective: The Center provides scientific and technical support to NMFS for the management, conservation, and wise use of the Northwest region's marine and anadromous resources. The Manchester Research Station provides both freshwater and saltwater research facilities, which are utilized by various research groups. This includes net pen facilities, a 2400 gpm pumped seawater system, freshwater and saltwater recirculation systems and effluent treatment with ozone. The facility supports projects involved with ESA listed salmon and steelhead, and economically important marine fish species including sablefish, lingcod and rockfish. Facility maintenance and upgrades are continually needed to support these ongoing projects. Currently our temperature control system (chiller) for the sablefish brood stock and hatchery is near the end of its expected operational life. This chiller was purchased in 2005 and has been in continuous use since that time. This unit uses R22 refrigerant which the EPA has been incrementally phasing out due to ozone depletion concerns. This phase out of R22 is to be complete by January 1st 2020 which will make servicing it prohibitive. In order to maintain proper temperature control for the sablefish project we require a new air cooled chiller that is energy efficient and meets environmental standards. 2.0 REQUIREMENTS Manchester Research Station requires one new 80 ton air cooled chiller to be purchased and installed in parallel with an existing Century Refrigeration 80 hp air cooled chiller.
