- Description
- The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) intends to negotiate a sole-source contract with the Shannon & Wilson, Inc. The purpose of this effort is for controlling erosion on steep slopes using a design produced by Shannon & Wilson. While the project was monitored for two years after construction was completed, that period was unusually dry, and thus did not serve well to test the technique's erosion control capability. Since that time, periods of unusually heavy rains have occurred, providing an opportunity to test this design's performance. An evaluation of the demonstration can now be made that should be more revealing than what could be observed during the original project monitoring period, and a final report on the project can now be produced. A seven-month period of performance is contemplated for the contractual effort. This is not a competitive requirement and no competitive solicitation is available.
