ACTION: Solicitation available notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy's (DOE) Morgantown Energy Technology 
Center announces its intent to solicit proposals for research, 
development, and demonstration entitled ``Development and Demonstration 
of a Method for Treatment and Underground Disposal of Naturally 
Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) Associated with Natural Gas 
Production'' Request for Proposal (RFP) No. DE-RP21-94MC30081, to be 
issued on or about 05/05/94, with proposals due on or about 06/16/94.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
D. Denise Riggi, I-07, U.S. Department of Energy, Morgantown Energy 
Technology Center, P.O. Box 880, Morgantown, West Virginia 26507-0880, 
Telephone: (304) 291-4241.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The objective of the RFP is to develop and 
demonstrate a method for treatment and underground disposal of NORM 
resulting from natural gas production. The Statement of Cooperative 
Agreement Objectives is divided into two phases, with a DOE decision 
point at the end of the first phase for determining reasonableness of 
progressing into the second phase. In Phase 1, the industrial 
participant (IP) will develop a method for treatment and underground 
disposal of NORM waste at bench-scale, and, upon authorization from the 
Contracting Officer, shall secure permits and licenses for the pilot-
scale demonstration in Phase 2. In Phase 2, the IP will demonstrate the 
NORM waste treatment and disposal method in a pilot-scale facility. The 
processing capacity of the pilot-scale facility will be at least 100 
barrels of NORM waste per day, and the duration of the pilot-scale 
demonstration will be at least one year. It is anticipated that cost 
sharing cooperative agreements will result from this solicitation. Only 
written requests for the solicitation will be honored. Letters 
requesting the RFP should be addressed to D. Denise Riggi at the 
address above and must identify the RFP number, DE-RP21-94MC30081.
