As one of the FRC subcontractors, Commodore is offering its SET process for sodium removal and conversion. The FRC bid has been submitted, oral presentations have been made, and the DOE is expected to award the contract in mid-summer 2004. Brewer continued "We have also bid as the small business partner with SAIC and others for a significant water and wild-life sampling and data management project in Oak Ridge TN. Our proposal, I believe, is superb in that it removes many of the data management and integration issues from the client (Bechtel Jacobs) minds."
