The contract provides for petroleum contamination site cleanup services funded through the Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund Program (CFDA 66.805) and federal grant funds from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Amendment No. 3 adds green remediation practices requirements (including sustainable fuels, renewable energy, energy-efficient equipment, and phased remedial system design) and incorporates Buy American Requirements under Section 1605 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, mandating the use of American-produced iron, steel, and manufactured goods except where cost is unreasonable (exceeding 25% of overall project cost), goods are unavailable in sufficient quantities, or application would be inconsistent with public interest. The contract structure uses a task-based payment methodology with deliverables tied to minimum performance standards, though specific pricing and contract amounts are indicated as N/A in the procurement documents provided.
