CONTRACTS from the United States Department of
Defense
Sunflower Redevelopment, LLC, Kansas City, Mo., was awarded Aug. 3,
2005, a $109,000,000 requirements-type contract with delivery
orders for the environmental remediation and explosives
decontamination of 9,065 acres of land formally known as Sunflower
Army Ammunition Plant in Johnson County, Kan. Congress enacted
legislation in October 2004 authorizing the Army (in consultation
with the General Services Administration) to complete transfer of
Sunflower to an entity selected by the Johnson County Board of
Commissioners: the Sunflower Redevelopment LLC. Sunflower Army
Ammunition Plant was established in 1941 as the world's largest
powder and propellant plant, later playing a historic role
providing munitions during World War II, and the Korean and Vietnam
conflicts. The ammunition plant is now an excess property.
Sunflower Redevelopment, LLC, will perform the work at the former
ammunition plant's site with planned completion by Dec. 13, 2012.
The U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command Rock Island at
Rock Island, Ill., is the contracting activity. Army Public Affairs
