The solicitation number is M17PS00057 and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Proposal (RFP). The Government anticipates awarding a time-and-materials (T&M) type contract as a result of this solicitation. The period of performance is 24 months from date of award.

The effects of Electromagnetic Field (EMF) emitted from submarine cables on marine organisms are of high concern to commercial and recreational fishermen throughout New England and the mid-Atlantic. While there are some studies, particularly from Europe, that indicate buried alternating current (AC) cables have little to no detectible effects on marine species, there is still concern regarding effects to important U.S. commercial fishery species from transmission cables. In particular, there is limited information on the effects from high voltage direct current (HVDC) submarine cables based on statistically valid measurements of effects. This effort will focus on the effects on the American Eel (Anguilla rostrata) from exposure to the Cross Sound HVDC cable in Long Island Sound.
