- This is a Request for Information - SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT. IT IS NOT A SOLICITATION, NOR DOES IT GUARANTEE A SOLICITATION WILL BE ISSUED. The purpose of this Sources Sought Announcement is to gain knowledge of potential business firms that have the technical capabilities and capacity required of the government. Responses to this Sources Sought Announcement will be used by the Government in making appropriate acquisition decisions. Please note: REQUESTS FOR A SOLICITATION WILL NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE. Any information submitted in response to this Sources Sought Announcement is strictly voluntary. The Government will neither award a contract solely based on this notice, nor pay for any information submitted by respondents. Failing to provide a response to this announcement will not prohibit/exclude an interested vendor from participating in a future solicitation. Background/Overview: The NOAA Fisheries Ted Stevens Research Institute (AFSC/ABL/TSMRI), located at Lena Point in Juneau, Alaska, has procured an ultra-violet (UV) disinfection system that will treat combined waste sea water from laboratory aquariums, experiment tanks and the building�s heating system. The waste sea water is discharged to coastal waters via a marine outfall in Favorite Channel. The discharge of wastewater from this outfall is regulated by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC). ADEC has issued an Alaska Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (APDES) permit for the outfall (permit number AK0053236). The permit establishes allowable limits for wastewater parameters including flow, Fecal coliform (FC) bacteria, Enterococci bacteria (EB), pH, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), temperature, and ammonia nitrogen. The UV disinfection system is required in order to meet the Fecal coliform and Enterococci bacteria limits stipulated in the permit. This purchase is to buy flow sensors and converters for the new UV disinfection system in accordance with the system design approved by ADEC. Technical Specifications / Essential Salient Features: Vendors interested in responding to this announcement shall only provide information for three (3) units each that include a minimum of the following specifications: 6"" Electromagnetic Flow Sensor (3 each) � All welded rugged construction � Corrosion, erosion and abrasion resistant � Capable of measuring � high temperatures up to 180�C / 356�F � pressures up to 1500 bar / 21755 psi � high solids contents (up to 70%) � Bi-directional flow metering � System Design - [1] Compact/Integral Transmitter (Aluminum Housing) � Electrodes - [B1] Hastelloy C22 � Protection Category - [0] IP 66/67 acc.
