~ Description of the i tem or service required , the estimated cost , and requi red delivery date .

PSNS&IMF currently has one dewatering pump skid built per Energy Solutions drawing DWG - LLW- 166181 - ME - 001 and two older pump skids built per older but similar specifications . NAVSEA has mandated that DMD equipment and processes be standardized and these pump skids are very similar to the skids used by NNSY and PSNS&IMF .

~ Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source or particular brand name (unique features , function of the item , etc.) .

Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources .

Market research for past purchases has shown that the Energy Solutions - designed pump skids meet our design criteria without having to pay for design costs required by other manufacturers . Drawing DWG - LLW - 166181 - ME - 001 (modified) is a proprietary design owned by Energy Solutions . To obtain a direct replacement pump skid from a competitor would require coordination of the competitor with Energy Solutions and PSNS&IMF . It would also require sign i fic a nt enginee ring man - hou r expenditures by PSNS&IMF to ensure the pump sk i ds operate correctly and to modify instructions a nd facilities to accommodate the alternate pump skids . The extra time required for the design by the competitor and PSNS&IMF ma y not support our need date .

In addition , using the Energy Solutions pump skid contributes to the NAVSEA mandated DMD standardization since NNSY and PSNS&IMF are both using the pump skid design .

X The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the governmen t

CHECK & FILL IN ALL APPLICABLE BLANKS BELOW

~ The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form , fit and function) with existing systems presently installed . Descri be the equipment you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate , connect , or interface with the existing system .

The pump skids must be compatible with Resin Catch Tank model EL- 142 manufactured by NUKEM , and cask models 10 - 160B , PL14 - 195 , and PL21 - 300 manufactured by Energy Solutions. The pump skids must be compatible with CUNO model 6AL1 filters with 1 micron cartridges . The pumps on the pump skid must use Warren Rupp Sandpipe r pumps , model HDBl~-A Type SB- 7 - SS . The pump skids mu s t also have the same dimensions , conne ction size and type , ability to use the same glove bag containment designs , the same hoses and f ittings , the same suppo r t f rame , and have the s ame foot print as the pump skids purchased previously so they can replace existing equipment quickly in case of failure during a critical evolution.

The existing pump skids were built by Energy Solutions so any new pump skids bu i lt by them will be ident i cal to existing equipme nt and can be a dire ct replacement . The Energy

Solutions design per drawing DWG- LLW - 166181 - ME - 001 has been previously used and is service proven .

The operating specs of the pumps skids are specific to the demands of the DMD dewatering system and will sufficiently prepare catch tanks fo r burial based on specific state environmental disposal requirements. Exact replacement prevents cost of significant TWD changes , and prevents the need for testing to verify different pumps meet the requirements to sufficiently dewater the resin catch tanks .

X A patent , copyright , or proprietary data limits competition .

Drawing DWG - LLW- 166181 - ME - 001 is a proprietary design owned by Energy Solutions .

X These are "direct replacements " parts/components for existing brand name equipment .
