Description

NOAA’s Facilities Engineering Office requests authority to obligate funds for design, renovation, and commissioning of a permanent Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2) laboratory at 904 S. Morris Street, Oxford, Maryland, including relocation of existing lab operations from a temporary trailer and decommissioning of the trailer space. The contractor will perform assessment and planning, prepare approximately 700 square feet of lab space for BSL-2 use, move and set up Government-owned equipment, decontaminate and broom-clean the trailer, and provide orientation, records, and warranty support. This project supports NCCOS and related NOAA programs by providing a safe, code-compliant BSL-2 lab needed to conduct coastal and ocean science in line with federal biosafety and facility requirements. If not approved and funded, NOAA will need to continue relying on an aging, non-ideal trailer lab, with increased risk of biosafety, facility, and mission impacts.
