On November 9, 2006 the FOSC and MDE entertained Region III ERRs contractors for Task Order competition and site walk thru. The meeting lasted two hours and all questions were answered by the FOSC. All proposals are due December 14, 2006. The FOSC will review proposals and select the ERRs contractor with the best proposal. Work is anticipated to restart in early 2007. The Task Order will include the separation and staging of MEC and ACM. The Task Order will be issued to cover a time frame of at least six months.
