These Task Orders wereissued under the cost-type contract arrangement in accordance with the contract. Acost-type arrangement is appropriate due to uncertainties involved in contractperformance that do not permit costs to be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use anytype of fixed-price contract. In addition a cost-type contract was selected to providethe contractor the greatest incentive for efficient and economical performance, given thetypes of services to be performed. This Environmental Contract has experienced personneland documented performance to mitigate the Government's risk. In order to meet therequirements of the Recovery Act in the most prudent business manner, with the timeconstraints imposed, the existing Environmental Contract is the most appropriatecontractual vehicle for the work required. <P>Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
