I. Agency and Contracting Activity (RFO 6.104-1(a)(1)):

Agency: AFDW Joint Base Andrew,MD Contracting Activity: 316 Contracting Squadron, Joint Base Andrews, MD

II. Nature and/or description of the action being approved (RFO 6.104-1(a)(2)):

This document approves the award of a Time and Materials Purchase Orders on a Sole Source basis to Clean Harbors Environmental Services Inc to contain, capture, and dispose of jet fuel and jet fuel byproduct from Piscataway Creek. This justification is made on an unusual and compelling basis.

III. Description of supplies/services required to meet agency needs (RFO 6.104-1(a)(3)):

Provide a clear and concise description of the supplies or services to be acquired (including the necessary IP required to meet the program and mission needs), the estimated value (including all options), appropriation and funding amounts planned, anticipated contract type, major items and associated quantities.

IV. Statutory Authority Permitting Other Than Full and Open Competition (RFO 6.104-1(a)(4)):

10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2), Unusual and compelling urgency.

V. Rationale for Use of Authority (RFO 6.104-1(a)(5)):

A fuel spill has occurred at Joint Base Andrews. Currently, the exact source of the leak, the total volume of fuel spilled, and the physical extent of the contamination are unknown. Immediate remediation and containment services are required to mitigate severe environmental damage. Any delay in awarding a contract to allow for full and open competition would result in unacceptable hazards to life, property, and the environment, as well as exponentially increasing cleanup costs and mission degradation.

VI. Integrated Market Analysis and Efforts to Solicit Competition (RFO 6.104-1(a)(6), (8), and (10)):

Due to the urgent and compelling nature of the fuel spill, standard market research was not feasible. The market research focused on identifying vendors with the immediate capacity, specialized equipment, and certified personnel required to respond to hazardous material spills on a military installation within hours. Clean Harbors was identified through this accelerated research as a capable vendor. They possess the required capabilities, capacities, equipment on base, and personnel with base access. Their rapid ability to respond to the fuel spill was pivotal.

VII. Determination of Fair and Reasonable Cost (RFO 6.104-1(a)(7)):

The Contracting Officer is responsible for evaluating, determining, and documenting the anticipated contract cost/price is fair and reasonable in accordance with RFO Subpart 15.4, Contract Pricing.

VIII. Any Other Facts Supporting the Justification (RFO 6.104-1(a)(9)):

Failure to immediately secure the comprehensive services of Clean Harbors will likely result in widespread ecological impact, and significant regulatory fines or penalties against the installation. The urgency of this procurement is heavily driven by environmental efforts, increasing costs, and public interest.

IX. Actions to Overcome Barriers to Competition (RFO 6.104-1(a)(11):

The current sole-source, Time and Materials (T&M) action is strictly limited to mitigating this immediate, unforeseeable emergency where the source, volume, and required effort are currently unknown and pose an imminent threat to the installation. Future fuel issues will be known and quantified in advance, the requiring activity will have the ability to develop clear, highly defined Statements of Work (SOW) well ahead of any required remediation or repair.
