Brownfields Technology Primer: Requesting and Evaluating Proposals that EncourageInnovative Technologies for Investigation and Cleanup

摘要

The Brownfields Technology Support Center (BTSC) prepared this primer to assistsite owners, project managers, and others preparing requests for proposals (RFP) to solicit support in conducting activities to investigate and clean up contaminated sites. The primer is not a general guidance document on preparing RFPs for the investigation and cleanup of sites. Rather, it is specifically intended to assist those individuals in writing specifications that encourage contractors and technology vendors (both referred to as contractors in this document) to propose options for using innovative characterization and remediation technologies at brownfields sites. The primer also provides information, from a technology perspective, to guide review teams in their evaluations of proposals and the selection of qualified contractors.
