EnergySolutions Services has received a $12 million U.S. Navy contract for services to process materials from several Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program sites.

The single indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract with firm-fixed-price provisions includes two one-year optional periods which, if exercised, would bring the contract value to about $38 million.

The contract covers services to process various metal forms through disassembly, decontamination, metal melting, compaction, incineration, resin sluicing/dewatering and bulk waste assay.

It includes provisions for supply of shipping containers, brokerage services and transportation of materials using truck, rail or barge from different program sites.

The contract also support the program's requirement for comprehensive processing, recycling, volume reduction, segregation, transportation and bulk waste analysis of radioactive waste/materials and residuals.

All work will be done at the company's Tennessee facility and is expected to be completed by July 2017.

All work will be completed by July 2019 if all options are exercised.

Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center is the contracting activity.
