Summary
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is seeking qualified businesses to provide cosmogenic radionuclide analyses services, specifically targeting isotopes 10 Be (Beryllium) and 26 Al (Aluminum). This opportunity is critical for enhancing public safety by improving hazard models in the seismically active Mendocino Triple Junction area of California. The work involves analyzing geological samples to assess fault activity and erosion rates, which are essential for understanding natural hazards. Contractors with expertise in laboratory analyses, particularly those familiar with Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) and isotopic analysis, are encouraged to respond to this sources sought announcement. This is not a request for proposals but rather a market research effort to gauge the availability of capable vendors for a multi-year project.
