The basis of evaluation will include a determination as to whether the project is similar in scope [i.e. type of work, methods, techniques], as defined in the SOW. The assessment of the Offeror’s relevant experience will be used as a means of determining the technical acceptability of the proposal.

Attachment A

2.0 PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

This firm-fix-price contract is for the preparation and delivery of a monitoring report for the Coso Hot Springs Monitoring Program at Naval Air Weapons Station (NAWS), China Lake, California.

The Coso Monitoring Program was initiated by the US Navy’s Geothermal Program Office (GPO) in 1978 to gather baseline data on the surface and near-surface thermal activity at Devils Kitchen and Coso Hot Springs, which are the main active thermal features associated with the Coso geothermal area located within the Naval Air Weapons Station (NAWS), China Lake, CA. The purpose of the yearly Coso Monitoring report is to document changes in the physical and chemical parameters related to the Coso Hot Springs Archaeological District, and to gain insight into the geology and hydrology of the near surface geothermal activity in the Coso Hot Springs area. Establishing an unambiguous and quantitative baseline permits comparison of conditions over a period of years.

The consultant shall prepare a report that summarizes the status of selected physical and chemical parameters from the Coso Hot Springs area, data for which shall be provided by the Government.
