99 -- RECYCLING AND TREATMENT OF ABRASIVE PAINT REMOVAL RESIDUES POC Mr. John R. Guerra, Contract Specialist, (210) 536-4570; Ms Julie Erwin, Contracting Officer, (210) 536-6342. Information regarding sources is being sought for Commercial Capabilities for Recycling and Treatment of Abrasive Paint Removal Residues. Seeking commercial capabilities with technologies and systems to recycle and/or treat abrasive blast residues resulting from paint removal. The Residues from the blast media include agricultural, garnet, glass and plastic material with oxides of heavy metals found in corrosion resistive paints. Source should be capable of performing recycling and treatment technology that are safe, cost effective and minimize residual liability by rendering the residue non-harzardous. Technologies and systems must be capable of meeting EPA operating permit requirements, including non-attainment areas. Technologies should not generate additional waste streams requiring further treatment by other processes. Information on the system should include (1) system description for applicability to residues; (2) description of how the system will meet or has met permitting requirements; (3) treatment efficacy e.g. TCLP data demonstrating the waste are rendered non-harzardous; (4) life cycle cost estimates; (5) maturity of the technology employed; (6) throughput capabilities; and (7) infrastructure requirements. Responses and non-technical questions concerning this acquisition to HSC/YAK, ATTN: John R. Guerra, 8107 13th St, Brooks AFB TX 78235-5218. Technical questions may be directed to Maj. Laurie DeGarmo, HSC/YAQ at (210) 536-2068. Closing date for submission of responses is thirty (30) days from date of publication. (0272)
