DOE Orders Consulting Services at SPRU From Idaho Small Business

By ExchangeMonitor

The Energy Department’s Office of Environmental Management issued a one-year task order worth up to $2.8 million from its indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract with SUNSi JV, of Pocatello, Idaho, for expert consultation at the agency’s Separations Process Research Unit site in Niskayuna, N.Y.

Under the task order, SUNSi JV will “provide the services of full-time and part-time subject matter experts working to provide safety management system, environmental programs, and waste management oversight,” DOE said in a Tuesday press release.

Related programs include: Worker Safety & Health Programs, Contractor Assurance, Quality Assurance, Conduct of Operations, Radiation Protection Program, Nuclear Safety, Facility Safety, Environmental Programs, and Waste Management, DOE said.

SPRU is a former plutonium research facility from the 1940s, where DOE’s predecessor agency, the Atomic Energy Commission, made early forays into the chemistry of plutonium extraction. The facility is now undergoing decontamination and decommissioning.
