219262 - is pleased to present the attached information in response to the Arizona Game and Fish Department’s (AZGFD) Request of Proposal (RFP) BPM003406, Shooting Range Lead Reclamation Services for the AZGFD Shooting Ranges. MT2’s response is based on review of the three

(3) RFP documents, MT2’s attendance at the pre-bid meeting (4/5/21), our previous contract with AZGFD - lead reclamation services performed at Ben Avery Shooting Facility (Contract AZGFD16-137874), and firing range lead removal experience at sites nationwide for military, law enforcement, and government agencies. Per RFP instruction, MT2 is presenting (in the portal) a blended percentage returned to AZGFD, for both Shot-based and Bullet-based range lead reclamation projects. Industry Standard is that shot and bullet lead reclamation projects are valuated differently, typically a different rate offered for each.

With our understanding of this site and our expert review of the scope of work included in the RFP, MT2 has completed this proposal response to demonstrate our professionalism, extensive qualifications, unique capabilities, value-added approach, and interest in supporting AZGFD on this project. MT2 is confident that our attached response presents the most cost-advantageous means of providing the AZGFD the requested lead maintenance services, and achieving compliance with USEPA, NSSF, NRA, Best Management Practices (BMPs), and Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) for managing lead at outdoor shooting ranges.

MT2 maintains a staff of well-qualified personnel and a fleet of specialized equipment to complete this project while meeting environmental, permitting, and safety requirements. Our personnel have on average 24 years industry experience – this expertise saves time and money for our customers since there will be no learning curve that may be incurred by less experienced firms.
