C. BACKGROUND
The U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) Nevada National Security Site (NNSS), formerly known
as the Nevada Test Site, was established in 1950 and is approximately 1,360 square miles. The
NNSS has a long history of supporting national security missions through full-scale atmospheric
and underground nuclear testing, with the last test occurring in 1992. Today the NNSS helps
ensure the security of the United States and its allies by supporting the stewardship of the nuclear
deterrent, providing emergency response capability and training, contributing to key
nonproliferation and arms control initiatives, and providing long-term environmental
stewardship. The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) oversees the national
security mission and overarching management of the NNSS. The Office of Environmental
Management (EM) Nevada Program is responsible for remediating Federal Facility Agreement
and Consent Order (FFACO) (1996; as amended) sites on the NNSS and portions of the Nevada
Test and Training Range (NTTR) and the Tonopah Test Range (TTR) that were contaminated
during nuclear testing operations and for operating the NNSS radioactive waste management
facilities.

1.4.1.1 SOIL REMEDIATION
The Soils Activity includes impacted sites which are the result or by product of historical
nuclear testing activities conducted at the NNSS and NTTR, including TTR, which produced
radionuclide contamination of near surface soils. The objective of the Soils Activity is to
characterize near-surface soil contamination sites and perform corrective actions, where it is
cost effective and will yield significant reduction in risk to human health and the
environment. Work scope activities are driven by the implementation of the FFACO
technical strategy. The scope encompasses characterization, assessment, corrective action
evaluation, and corrective action implementation (e.g. clean closure; closure in place,
capping, and establishing land use restrictions). Fieldwork is performed as authorized by
applicable directives, including Real Estate Operating Permits. Note: New National
Environmental Policy Act-mandated Environmental Assessment (EA) documentation will not
be required for Soils activities; the Soils Corrective Action Units (CAUs) are included in the
Environmental Impact Analysis and Record of Decision (ROD) for the NNSS Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS).
The end state is to complete the corrective actions at all sites as defined in the FFACO.
Most sites will be stabilized for restricted use (i.e., contamination remains in place)
appropriate to the risk posed by residual contamination, while others will be stabilized for
unrestricted surface use. For those sites where contamination remains in place, appropriate
long-term remedial actions will be established including but not limited to long-term
monitoring, cap inspections, and use restrictions as applicable. To facilitate closure, Soils
Corrective Action Sites (CASs) are grouped into CAUs based on geographic location,

1.4.1.2 UNDERGROUND TEST AREA (UGTA)
The UGTA activity defines the hydrologic boundaries of NNSS and surrounding area
groundwater resources that may be unsafe for domestic or municipal use. Data analysis and
modeling activities allow for informed decisions to ensure risk to public health and the
environment posed by impacted groundwater are, and will remain, within protective levels.
The end state will be achieved with the completion of a modeled contaminant boundary,
negotiated regulatory boundary, and monitoring well network(s).
To facilitate closure, UGTA CASs are grouped into CAUs based on geographic location.
Work scope activities for a CAU are driven by the implementation of the FFACO technical
strategy. Modeling of CAUs is required to determine the location and potential future extent
of contaminant migration which supports how contaminant boundaries are defined in order to
design the corrective action monitoring well network. The installation of the groundwater
wells, development and testing of GW wells, characterization and sampling should be
compared against the NEPA analysis performed in the EIS and any recommendation for
additional NEPA analysis shall be performed by Contractor and provided to the DOE NCO
for review/approval. These activities will be performed at multiple sites and specific data may
need to be developed and analyzed for each of the site locations. These activities provide the
complete basis for a Corrective Action Decision Document/Corrective Action Plan
(CADD/CAP) for regulatory approval. Corrective action involves the completion of those
activities required in the CADD/CAP consistent with Exhibit C-1. Compliance with the
closure criteria leads to a Closure Report (CR) and notice of completion from Nevada
Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP). The Contractor shall conduct all activities
necessary to ascertain the information for the preparation of FFACO documents. This
includes the preparation of all regulatory documents, submittal for review and comment,
addressing all comments and final publication. Activities on the NTTR/TTR will require
coordination with the United States Air Force.

Contractor shall use only those commercial systems which have been authorized and certified
for such use through the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP).
The Contractor shall fully document such systems in the SSP, supporting Configuration
Diagrams, and other exhibits.
The Contractor shall make provisions in the SSP(s) for its supporting subcontractors’ IT
systems. Where a direct data interchange occurs only between the Contractors IT system(s) and
a subcontractor’s System, the Contractor may apply a graded, risk-based approach to the
application of the ATO requirements of this contract to the subcontractor system. The
identification and evaluation of risks associated with the subcontractor IT systems shall be
documented in the FIPS-199 Evaluation for Security Categorization. Where a subcontractor’s
IT system directly interfaces with DOE IT systems, or provides direct public access to
government information, a separate, full ATO shall be required.
Applications purchased or developed to support the mission under this contract shall be able to
run on mandatory IT baseline security configurations without any deviations and must comply
with the appropriate controls as documented in Security and Privacy Controls for Federal
Information Systems and Organizations, National Institute of Standards and Technology

Exhibit C-1, Regulatory Documents
The Contractor shall prepare draft and/or final documents related to site characterization,
assessment, remediation, closure, and monitoring of Corrective Action Units (CAUs) and
Corrective Action Sites (CASs) (as appropriate) in accordance with the provisions of the
FFACO (1996; as amended).
The Contractor will conduct all activities necessary to ascertain the information for the
preparation of the documents listed. All documents must be prepared in accordance with
the provisions of the FFACO standardized outlines.
The Contractor is responsible for production, reproduction, and distribution of draft
and/or final documents for the EM Nevada Program, the Nevada Division of
Environmental Protection (NDEP), and contractor review. The Contractor shall resolve
EM Nevada Program and other reviewer comments via response on document review
forms. NDEP comments shall be addressed by the Contractor with responses approved
by EM Nevada Program and a copy of the document review sheet shall be included as an
appendix in all final documents for review by EM Nevada Program and NDEP.
Following NDEP approval, the Contractor shall prepare a Portable Document Format
conversion and a compact disc, if required, and submit final documents to the
Environmental Management Information System (EMIS), the DOE Office of Scientific
and Technical Information and the Public Reading Facilities identified in the FFACO.
Corrective Action Investigation Plan (CAIP)
A CAIP is prepared to describe all of the specific information for planning
investigation activities associated with CAUs and CASs. A CAIP may reference
information in the optional CAU work plan or other applicable documents. If a CAU
work plan is not developed, then the CAIP must include or reference all of the
management, technical, quality assurance, health and safety, Strategic
Communication, field sampling, and waste management information needed to
conduct the investigations in compliance with established procedures and protocols.
Corrective Action Decision Document (CADD)
A CADD is prepared to describe the corrective action that is selected as the result of
investigation activities and the rationale for selection. The rationale consists of an
analysis of the possible alternatives and may reflect a decision ranging from no action
to clean closure.
The Contractor will develop Corrective Action Alternatives and evaluate those
alternatives through an established process. The process will include EM Nevada
Program participation and will result in the selection of a preferred closure strategy.
EM Nevada EPS- Draft RFP Section C

C-41
Corrective Action Plan (CAP)
A CAP is prepared when a CADD requires an action. The Contractor shall summarize
the results of the corrective action investigation as presented in the CADD(s) and shall
specify the details on the implementation of the correction action proposed for the
CAU.
Streamlined Approach for Environmental Restoration Plan (SAFER)
A SAFER plan is prepared if sufficient information exists at a particular CAU to plan
corrective actions prior to completion of the investigation. This SAFER plan will
contain all the necessary elements usually found in CAIPs, CADDs, and CAPs.
The Contractor shall define why the SAFER process is acceptable and appropriate for
reaching closure for a CAU and the associated CASs. The Contractor shall provide a
summary statement of the proposed corrective action and the closure options. All
CASs within the CAU must have a closure scenario established in the document.
Provide a statement of the assumptions made for this CAU and each associated CAS
to support the identified closure approach.
CADD/CAP
A CADD/CAP is prepared to document the alternatives arising as a result of a
corrective action investigation, the rationale for selection of a preferred alternative,
and the plan for implementing the preferred corrective action alternative. The
CADD/CAP uses site knowledge gained through characterization and similar
historical corrective actions to provide a plan for corrective action. The CADD/CAP
is submitted to fulfill a CADD milestone. However, if approval is granted, this
document would also fulfill the CAP milestone, and the CAP milestone would no
longer be required.
CADD/Closure Report (CR)
The CADD/CR is used for CAUs where no further corrective actions are needed
following completion of the corrective action investigation. This may include minor
corrective actions as agreed to by NDEP. The CADD/CR provides rationale for no
further corrective action, and may recommend closure with or without use restrictions
or long-term monitoring. The CADD/CR is submitted to fulfill a CADD milestone.
However, if approval is granted, this document would also fulfill the CR milestone,
and the CAP milestone would no longer be required.
Closure Report
A CR document provides an overview of the corrective actions implemented at a
CAU, the results of the corrective actions, any deviations from the approved CAP,
closure verification information, URs, and monitoring requirements (when applicable).
