NOTICE: PRE-SOLICITATION

Project Name: Supply and Install Waste to Energy Recovery System. This announcement is in reference to Solicitation Number P17PS02151. The U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service intends to solicit proposals from qualified firms for a firm-fixed price professional services contract to furnish all labor, management, supplies, equipment, materials, travel, transportation, and permitting necessary to perform all operations required for the successful completion of the project.

The National Park Service, Kalaupapa National Historical Park (NHP) has a requirement for supply, delivery, installation, and commissioning of a novel waste to energy system for use at the Kalaupapa NHP transfer station. The desired resource recovery system will allow Kalaupapa NHP to reclaim the energy resources from combustible materials, which are currently being discharged to landfills, while continuing to be good stewards of the environment. Kalaupapa NHP is located in an isolated setting midway along the north shore of the island of Molokai in the State of Hawai`i. The peninsula is a comparatively flat plateau of lava about 2¼ miles wide, projecting out from a 2,000 foot cliff and was formed by a small volcano, arising from Kauhakō Crater, adjacent to the larger volcanoes that form Molokai. Molokai is located on the Pacific Ocean.

Kalaupapa NHP is isolated from the rest of Molokai and no roads exist to connect it with other parts of the island. The airport is limited to small commuter plane service, and daily air freight deliveries. Barge delivery service operates only once per year to ship bulk items. The contractor will be responsible for delivery of the waste to energy/resource recovery system to Kalaupapa National Historical Park, Hawaii.

The footprint of the system shall be no greater than 15’ x 15’ and the maximum height of the system shall be 10’.
