Savannah River Operations Office
Financial Assistance Award Intent To Award a Noncompetitive Grant
AGENCY: Savannah River Operations Office, DOE.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The DOE announces that it plans to award a renewal grant to
South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC),
2600 Bull Street, Columbia, SC 29201. The grant, ``Oversight and
Implementation of the Federal Facility Agreement (FFA),'' will be
renewed for a five-year period at a projected funding level of
$9,097,668. Funds of $1,390,911 are available for the first budget
period, and subject to the availability of funds, the reminder will be
awarded thereafter. Pursuant to Section 10 CFR Part 600.7(b)(2)(i)(C)
of the DOE Assistance Regulations (10 CFR Part 600), DOE has determined
that a noncompetitive award is appropriate since SCDHEC is the
authorized regulatory agency qualified to perform the activities
covered under the grant within the subject jurisdiction.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elizabeth T. Martin, Prime Contracts
and Financial Assistance Branch, U.S. Department of Energy, Savannah
River Operations Office, P.O. Box A, Aiken, SC 29802, Telephone: (803)
725-2191.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Procurement Request Number: 09-94SR18233.001.
Project Scope: The proposed renewal grant allows the State of South
Carolina to continue implementing the Federal Facility Agreement (FFA)
and maintain a program to oversee the remediation activities at the
Savannah River Site (SRS). The FFA (effective August 13, 1993) is a
collaborative effort among the Department of Energy, the Environmental
Protection Agency and the South Carolina Department of Health and
Environmental Control to direct the comprehensive remediation of the
SRS. The Agreement governs the corrective/remedial action process from
site investigation through site remediation and describes procedures to
set annual work priorities for that process. The Parties will
coordinate the administrative and public participation processes
prescribed by the various statutes (e.g., RCRA and CERCLA) governing
the corrective/remedial action process at the SRS.
Based on documentation presented and appropriate evaluation, it is
determined that this award to SCDHEC on a noncompetitive basis is
appropriate and is in the best interest of DOE.
Issued in Aiken, South Carolina, on June 15, 1994.
