Amendment 0002 is issued To answer the following submitted questions: Question 1: Is incineration (or other thermal treatment) required for all waste streams under this contract, regardless of Base CLIN category (e.g., CS, FL, NR, PC, PF, RX, TX), or are alternative disposal methods permitted for certain non-RCRA, non-TSCA, or state-regulated wastes when incineration is not mandated by regulation or Universal Treatment Standards? Specifically: • The PWS states the contract consists of “removal, transportation, incineration or other thermal treatment, and final disposal” (Section 0.0.a). • However, some CLINs appear to cover non-RCRA/state-regulated wastes (NR series) or materials where landfill or recycling may be allowable. • Section 2.4 allows for energy recovery (e.g., cement kilns), which may not constitute traditional incineration. We want to confirm whether: 1. All turned-in waste must go to an RCRA-permitted incinerator, or 2. Alternative final disposition (e.g., permitted landfill, fuel blending, recycling) is acceptable when supported by the waste profile, regulatory status, and TSDF acceptance, provided full audit trail and compliance are maintained. Answer 1: Incineration (or other thermal treatment) is required for all waste streams under this contract. Final disposal must occur at a RCRA permitted TSDF appearing in the DLA QFL. Fuels blending for destruction at cement kilns constitutes thermal treatment and can be considered energy recovery at the same time. Question 2: Referencing Attachment 6, Addenda to 52.212-2, is it correct that the Subcontracting Plan will be evaluated on a "go-no go" basis? Answer 2: Please see Attachment 6 – Addenda to 52.212-2 Evaluation, Small Business Subcontracting Plans Evaluation, which outlines the evaluation process. This attachment also refers to FAR 52.219-9 and DFARS 252.219-7003, where you can find further information. Question 3: Please confirm the information required for Volume III. Are the Small Business Participation Plan and separate Small Business Subcontracting Plan both required? The PROPOSAL SUBMISSION FORMAT AND CONTENT – HAZARDOUS WASTE DISPOSAL SOLICITATIONS section lists Volume III as being required in subsection (b) but isn’t included in subsection (c) MINIMUM CONTENT. Additionally, the SMALL BUSINESS PARTICIPATION PLAN AND SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING PLANS section suggests both plans are required, but the additional information provided only requires a Small Business Subcontracting Plan. Answer 3: Please see Attachment 5 - Addenda to 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors, Small Business Subcontracting Plans, which outlines who is required to submit a Small Business Participation and Plan and Small Business Subcontracting Plan. Question 4: With regard to the D009 waste code on several CLINs, Section 2.3 of the PWS states that the container will contain no more than 400 ppm or 0.04% mercury. Can you clarify if this is a weight-based level of mercury vs concentration. For example, if a drum weighs 500 lbs., the maximum amount of mercury in the drum would be 0.2 lbs. Answer 4: The 400 ppm Hg referenced in PWS is weight-based.
