Summary
NOAA (NMFS/NWFSC) issued a special notice seeking non-personal analytical laboratory services to analyze halogenated organic compounds (HOC) in up to 35 marine mammal tissue samples, covering extraction, instrumental analysis, total extractable organohalides measurement, and data reporting. The notice states the period of performance is 12 months from award and includes deliverables of analytical data and narrative explanations for unusual results. This is a pre-solicitation/special notice indicating an intent to negotiate a sole-source award with Texas A&M University rather than a current competitive solicitation.
