HELICOPTER SERVICES FOR THE UNITED STATES ANTARCTIC PROGRAM

摘要美国国家科学基金会合同OPP 96-164000韦伯这份资金夹克将为路易斯安那州拉斐特的石油直升机公司(PHI)提供第一份直升机服务合同，这是美国国家科学基金会的OPP 95-164000招标的结果，“为美国南极计划和新西兰南极计划获得直升机服务”。这份为期两年的合同(外加三个一年的选择期)由国家科学基金会授予PHI，内政部(DOI)下属的飞机服务办公室(OAS)根据1995年9月25日修订的MOA提供行政监督。作为直升机服务合同的管理人，美洲国家组织将根据修订后的MOA，通过国家科学基金会/美洲国家组织合同OPP 96-43291，定期向私营部门支付所提供服务的资金。这一价值1.00美元的封套将用于识别Helo服务合同(即，赋予它一个NSF合同号)，并在NSF奖励系统中跟踪它，并将由极地项目办公室副研究支持科管理。这1美元的资金行动是必要的，以允许将4,910,837.00美元从国家科学基金转移到美洲国家组织，后者将按照RFP OPP 95029的计费间隔向PHI支付款项。预计将在1996年10月15日左右向承包商支付第一笔款项。项目经理已审核此申请并建议为其提供资金。Dwight D.Fisher代理科科长
