About this award
The University of Missouri System was awarded a $249,602 firm fixed-price contract by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (through the Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity) on August 28, 2023, to conduct research under the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) project ER22-4015 titled "Abiotic and Microbiological Transformation of AFFF-Relevant Polyfluoroalkyl Substances." The research addresses environmental contamination from aqueous film-forming foams (AFFF), which are widely used in military and civilian applications and contain persistent polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). This no-cost time extension contract extends the ultimate completion date to August 27, 2026, with work to be performed in Columbia, Missouri. No set-aside designation was used for this award. The contract originated from a February 2022 Broad Agency Announcement soliciting environmental research and development projects with potential awards up to $10 million across multiple topic areas including environmental restoration, munitions response, and resource conservation.
The prime contractor has engaged Duke University's Office of Research Administration as a subcontractor, awarded November 8, 2024, to provide specialized molecular biology services including RNA and DNA extraction from samples, whole community sequencing, and sequencing data analysis. This subcontract work leverages Duke's extensive research capabilities in genomic analysis and biomedical research to support the characterization of microbial communities involved in PFAS transformation. The collaborative research structure combines the University of Missouri System's environmental engineering expertise with Duke University's advanced sequencing and analytical capabilities to advance understanding of both chemical and biological pathways for breaking down these persistent contaminants.
