THIS IS A SPECIAL NOTICE PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATION (FAR) SUBPART 5.2 “SYNOPSES OF PROPOSED CONTRACT ACTIONS”NAICS 541720, Research and Development in the Social Sciences and HumanitiesResponse Deadline: 25 May 2022The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Portland District (NWP) intends to negotiate/award a firm-fixed price (FFP) service, single source procurement to the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation of Oregon (CTWSRO) for site condition monitoring assisting the Corps with National Historic Preservation Act Section 106 & 110 compliance.REASON FOR SOLE SOURCE ACQUISITION:The statutory authority for this non-competitive acquisition is FAR 13.106-1(b)(i), Soliciting from a single source for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold.The purpose is to provide technical services specific to the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation of Oregon (CTWSRO) for site condition monitoring assisting the Corps with
National Historic Preservation Act Section 106 & 110 compliance.Background: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) (Agencies) are jointly responsible for compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) under the terms of the 2009 Systemwide Programmatic Agreement (SWPA) for management of historic properties affected by operations of the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS). The USACE, Northwestern Portland District manages The Bonneville, The Dalles, and John Day Projects, which are part of the FCRPS. The FCRPS Cultural Resource Program works closely with interested and affected tribes, State Historic Preservation Offices (SHPOs), and other agencies for cultural resource management in compliance with Section 106 of the NHPA.Justification: Warm Springs Geo Visions, on behalf of the CTWSRO, possesses unique knowledge of their ancestral artifacts, village sites, prehistoric burial areas, and areas of traditional cultural properties and resources within the project area. The CTWSRO awards contracts to a small business tribal enterprise: Warm Springs Geo Visions (WSGV). WSGV is the only authorized source to represent the CTWSRO. WSGV has historically been the awardee for all CTWSRO related service contracts.Impact: Failure to utilize the CTWSRO/ WSGV’s knowledge of its archeological sites and resources would delay the Corps in being able to make required long term management strategies for the area and impact compliance with NHPA Sections 106 and 110 under the terms of the 2009 Systemwide Programmatic Agreement for management of historic properties affected by operation and maintenance of the FCRPS. Furthermore, government relations with the CTWSRO would be negatively impacted.The Government intends to solicit the CTWSRO/ WSGV directly for this project on or around 26-MAY-2022.  At this time, a solicitation does not exist.  All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency.*NO PHONE INQUIRIES, PLEASE.CAPABILITY STATEMENT SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS(PLEASE REVIEW ALL BELOW)Point of Contact name, email address and phone number, CAGE code and DUNS number (if available);In the event that the organization is a small business, please state the category of small business, such as 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB/VOSB, Women-Owned Small Business.The Government will evaluate the capabilities of an interested party based on their ability to demonstrate substantial knowledge of the CTWSRO’s history, village sites, artifact locations, burial locations, and areas of traditional cultural properties.Send responses, labeled as “CTWSRO Site Condition Monitoring” to the following: Carl.R.Schmurr@usace.army.mil
