PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

I. GENERAL INFORMATION

A. Introduction: Commer services, non-personal, to process and analyze sediment samples to determine cosmogenic radionuclide (CRN) concentrations (10Be).

B. Background: USGS project personnel routinely use 10Be in sediment samples to estimate ages for surfaces, but the USGS does not have the facilities to process and analyze the cosmogenic radionuclide concentrations.

C. Scope: The purpose is to measure 10Be concentrations in sediment samples to estimate surface ages in tectonically active regions. The age of the faulted surfaces will provide constraints on tectonic activity and insight into the regional seismic hazard.

II. WORK REQUIREMENTS

A. Technical Requirements:

Services – sediment samples will be delivered to the vendor between 0.25 – 1 mm grain size.

The USGS requires that samples will be processed and then analyzed in one facility to ensure the highest quality data possible. The specific tasks are as follows:

1. (10Be samples) Quartz separation and purification from sampled sediment.

2. Chemical preparation (BeO)

3. Target preparation (BeO)

4. AMS measurement for 10Be concentrations

A written report shall contain the following information:

i. Sample ID

ii. Sample mass (g of quartz)

iii. 9Be spike (mg)

iv. 9/10Be ratio

v. 10Be concentration (atoms/g)

vi. Standards used or blank ratios (9Be/10Be ratios)

B. Deliverables:

Deliverable products: 10Be concentrations for each sample.

Delivery date: No more than 24 weeks from the contractor’s receipt of samples.

USGS project personnel will review deliverables within two weeks after receipt. Deliverables may be returned to the investigator for revision and/or supplementation prior to approval, if deliverable does not meet the above requirements.
