Telephonic responses will not be honored.

2. Requirement:

The DEA ACS Program was initiated in 2003 to allow state and local law enforcement to store hazardous and non-hazardous waste that was seized at an Illicit Hazardous Environment (IHE) to include clandestine drug laboratories. DEA provides the start-up funds to state agencies selected to mailto:jose.l.marin@dea.gov participate in this program. These funds cover the cost for Hazardous Material Storage Buildings, enclosed trailers, training, supplies, and equipment. Based on their training, and utilizing appropriate personal protective equipment, participating law enforcement personnel are responsible for:

• Characterizing and identifying seized chemicals according to federal and state environmental regulations,

• Packaging, marking and labeling all waste removed from an illicit hazardous environment site,

• Transporting all waste removed from an illicit hazardous environment site directly to an ACS site and,

• Compliance with all federal and state regulatory requirements when storing the waste at an ACS site.

The ACS program offers a solution to the difficulty and cost of managing and disposing of hazardous waste found, seized, and removed from an illicit hazardous environment. Law enforcement officers characterize, segregate, package, and transport such hazardous waste from an illicit hazardous environment site to various state-authorized collection stations, which are located throughout the individual states. The individual states require several collection stations for temporary storage of hazardous waste. The hazardous waste will be stored in the Hazardous Material storage buildings until such time as DEA's contractors are dispatched to the collection stations to pick up, remove, and properly dispose of the hazardous waste. This BPA establishes an acquisition method for ACS program participants to purchase Hazardous Material Storage Buildings to be used in the storage of hazardous waste seized from an illicit hazardous environment site.

DEA is seeking responses for market research purposes only. Interested parties shall provide any RFI feedback, relevant technical capabilities, and market research pricing.
