1. BACKGROUND
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) National Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacy
(CMOP) program dispenses over 130 million prescriptions per year (more than 500,000 per day)
for VA Medical Centers (VAMCs) and Outpatient Clinics (OPCs) throughout the United States.
CMOP utilizes a combination of automated and manual procedures to prepare and dispense
Over-the-Counter (OTC) and prescription drugs, controlled substance prescriptions, bulk-type
prescriptions, and medical/surgical products directly by mail to patients. The CMOP facilities
support all fifty states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, and U.S. Territories.
Seven CMOP facilities currently operate throughout the United States. Two facilities may be
relocating during the contract performance period: the Leavenworth CMOP may be relocated to
23501 W. 84th Street, Shawnee, KS 66227. The Leavenworth and Murfreesboro CMOPs
currently operate two locations under a single CMOP designation, denoted with an asterisk in
Section 3.
2. OBJECTIVE
The CMOP requires Contractor(s) to remove and dispose of hazardous waste, universal waste,
lab pack services, biohazardous waste (sharps containers), non-hazardous chemical waste, and
controlled substances from all VA CMOP facilities at the locations listed in Section 3.
3. CMOP FACILITIES
Services shall be provided to all CMOP sites listed below. Pricing and rates established under
this BPA shall apply to each location, including dual-operation locations and any contingent or
future locations adopted during contract performance. Locations are subject to change
throughout the contract period depending on mission requirements.

4. SCOPE OF WORK
The intent of this contract is to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to provide
hazardous, non-hazardous, universal, and specialty (i.e., hazardous pharmaceutical, non-
hazardous pharmaceutical) waste disposal services to all CMOP facilities specified in Section 3,
including any contingent or future locations. The Contractor shall provide all labor, supervision,
materials, equipment, sanitized, disinfected and labeled containers, transportation, facilities,
supplies, and waste manifests. The Contractor shall collect, analyze, prepare, package or approve
CMOP packaging, label, remove, transport, store, treat, and dispose of waste under the resulting
contract in accordance with the terms and conditions, specifications, and national consensus
standards (The Joint Commission [TJC]); all Federal, State, and Local laws (including U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency – EPA, Department of Transportation – DOT); and VA
infectious medical waste requirements.
The Contractor shall maintain all necessary hazardous waste permits and licenses for the disposal
and treatment of such waste. The Contractor shall also have an assigned U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) authorization and identification number, necessary Department of
Transportation permits, and insurance prior to transport and/or disposal of subject waste. If the
Contractor requires additional information, it may contact the U.S. EPA regional office. This
acquisition is for a five-year contract with a base year and four (4) option years.
5. GENERATOR STATUS
All CMOP facilities currently operate as Small Quantity Generators (SQG) or Very Small
Quantity Generators (VSQG) of hazardous waste. No CMOP facility currently operates as a
-- 2 of 18 --

Page 3 of 18
Large Quantity Generator (LQG). Generator status by site is subject to change based on
accumulation, and the Contractor shall remain attentive to status fluctuations — particularly at
non-Subpart P locations, where P-listed pharmaceutical waste contributes directly to status
determination under the 1 kg acutely-hazardous threshold.
6. SUBPART P STATUS BY LOCATION
All CMOP locations operate under 40 CFR Part 266 Subpart P (Management Standards for
Hazardous Waste Pharmaceuticals) EXCEPT the following, which operate under RCRA:
• Leavenworth CMOP and Kansas/Shawnee CMOP (KS) - the State of Kansas has not
adopted Subpart P.
• Chelmsford CMOP (MA) - the Commonwealth of Massachusetts has not adopted
Subpart P.
At the non-Subpart P locations, P-listed pharmaceutical waste shall be managed as fully
regulated Subtitle C hazardous waste, including all manifest, accumulation, container, and
disposal obligations. The Contractor shall manage waste streams at each location consistent with
the regulatory framework applicable to that location, which are subject to change at the federal or
state level during the contract period.
