The Air Force Civil Engineer Center released a broad agency announcement Feb. 10, seeking proposals that demonstrate innovative, sustainable and cost-effective technologies and methodologies related to environmental restoration and compliance concerns across the Air Force.

The BAA was developed by the government as a way to further develop and validate innovative environmental technologies by providing an opportunity to apply the potential solutions in the field.

"Successful implementation and completion of the projects can result in a mutually beneficial arrangement, with the organization or contractor receiving additional field testing of their proposed solution and the Air Force receiving assistance in achieving its environmental goals," said Adria Bodour, BAA program manager at AFCEC.

The current BAA is specifically looking for proposals addressing these topics:
· Remedial technologies for EDB cleanup at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico
· Determining preferential pathways for complex sites
· Wastewater sensor technology to comply with Clean Water Act
· Natural resources monitoring plan
· In-vessel composting
· Field methods for development of source emission factors
· New source review and prevention of significant deterioration procedures
· Hazardous air pollutant input development and analysis for stationary sources

Companies, academic and non-profit institutions, and government agencies across the United States are encouraged to participate and responses are due by March 10, 2015.
