About this opportunity

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Global Monitoring Laboratory has issued a sole source justification for specialized atmospheric air sampling flights at East Trout Lake, Saskatchewan, Canada. The contract requires conducting atmospheric air sampling using a small aircraft-based collection system at GML Global Greenhouse Gas Reference Network sites to support critical climate research and data collection. NOAA awarded the firm fixed-price contract to Jared Chursinoff for $99,305.28, including all options, based on his unique qualifications and capabilities that cannot be duplicated by other operators. The sole source justification stems from Chursinoff's continuous research flight operations since 2010, specialized aircraft modifications, required pilot certifications, and critical expertise in maintaining long-term atmospheric measurement time series data. Market research conducted through GSA, UNICOR, Source America, and investigations of aircraft operators near the sampling locations confirmed that Chursinoff is the only operator capable of meeting the technical requirements for these specific research flights. This contract supports NOAA's global network of approximately 80 atmospheric measurement sites that are essential for consistent, high-quality climate data collection.
