Stoller wins UK Contaminated Land and Groundwater Management Program Contract The United Kingdom’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority awarded a four year Enhancement Contract to the S.M. Stoller Corporation to provide personnel for the management and leadership of the Sellafield Site Contaminated Land and Groundwater Management Program under the Sellafield Nuclear Decommissioning and Project group. “The value of this contract is we have signed a Tier 1 contract with a scope that has a high priority with the UK government,” said Barbara Mazurowski, Stoller vice president. “This is a great opportunity for Stoller to get established in the European market.” Stoller UK is charged with designing and implementing a groundwater management program for the Sellafield Site. This program will identify and quantify the Sellafield Site\'s liabilities associated with groundwater; develop a validated and verified model of the geology, hydrogeology, groundwater flow, contaminant source term, and contaminant transport; comply with the appropriate regulations; and cause a step-change improvement in the quality, schedule, and cost of the program. The procurement is divided into three parts. A Transition and Innovation team will spend three to four months evaluating the current operations and plans for Sellafield’s contaminated land and groundwater monitoring programs. This phase of the contract includes reviewing current site groundwater activities, schedule and objectives, regulatory requirements and expectations. Stoller UK personnel will also review current plans for contaminated ground remediation, mitigation measures, and end-states and how the groundwater monitoring program is supporting these discussions The second phase will second key Stoller managers and professionals into the Contaminated Land organization to control and be accountable for the planning and execution of the Groundwater Plan. The third phase is to propose work scopes that will enhance the Contaminated Land and Groundwater Management program and build a “world-class” groundwater monitoring program for the Sellafield site. Stoller Breaks into the Top-10 in Nuclear Cleanup BROOMFIELD, COLORADO, [July 14, 2008] – The S.M. Stoller Corporation, a technical consulting firm headquartered in Broomfield, is one of the top-10 environmental firms in the nuclear cleanup industry, according to a top industry publication. Engineering News Record in its June 30, 2008 edition rankings of the Top 200 Environmental Firms in the nation based on 2007 revenues placed Stoller at number 6 in Nuclear Cleanup ($98.3 million) and 69th in the top 200 environmental firms with total revenues of $109.2 million. Stoller earned 98 percent of total revenues from projects in the U.S. “I’m very proud of our ability to compete with the giants in our industry,” said Nick Lombardo, Stoller president. “I believe our success results from providing the right people who do their best work for our clients.” Stoller was ranked 74th nationally by ENR in 2007 and the company has generated a five-fold increase in revenues since 2001. Stoller is a nationwide leader that provides a variety of site management, environmental, waste management, remediation, and ecological services to the government and private-sector companies. Stoller offers its customers expertise in the areas of high-hazard site and groundwater remediation, facility-decommissioning, radioactive and hazardous waste management, environmental surveillance, nuclear engineering, ecological studies, risk assessment, and regulatory compliance. Stoller currently supports the U.S. Department of Energy as the prime contractor for operations and maintenance of nearly 100 facilities for the DOE Office of Legacy Management, including Rocky Flats and Grand Junction, CO and the Mound and Fernald sites in Ohio. Additional DOE support contracts include waste management, remediation, research, records management and other environmental services at DOE sites in Washington, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas and Ohio. Other Colorado projects include cleanup and soil remediation at the Cotter Corporation uranium mill site near Canon City and permitting support for uranium mining operations at various locations across the western U.S. Stoller is also designing and implementing a groundwater management program for the Sellafield Site in northern England and is performing a variety of jobs in Japan. Next year, Stoller will celebrate 50 years of technical consulting to the nuclear industry. Stoller Awarded Multi-million Dollar Facility Operations Contract Extension IDAHO FALLS, ID – The Stoller Corporation is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a two-year contract extension for the operation of the Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility (ERDF) at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Hanford Site. The value of the contract extension is at least $ 18.5 million. “Over the past few years, the Stoller Corporation has evolved from a small business focused on providing engineering services to a growing company with expertise in nuclear waste management and nuclear facility operations,” said Stoller CEO Nick Lombardo. “The extension of the EDRF contract by Washington Closure Hanford LLC (WCH), a prime contractor to the U.S. Department of Energy, (DOE Richland Operations Office), is another milestone in our company’s evolution. We appreciate the confidence WCH and DOE have shown in Stoller and we look forward to becoming an even larger contributor to DOE’s environmental management program.” ERDF is the heart of a major part of cleanup operations at the Hanford Site. It is a disposal facility for the contaminated soil and materials that are being excavated at the Hanford sites along the Columbia River. ERDF began receiving waste in 1996 and Stoller Corporation was originally awarded the ERDF operations contract in March of 2006. The newly extended contract runs through February 28, 2010. ERDF expects to receive about one million tons of low-level radioactive waste per year in the overall Hanford cleanup; currently, ERDF holds seven million tons. ERDF includes a bottom liner composed of multiple barriers and designed to contain and collect moisture to prevent migration of contaminants to the soil and groundwater. Once ERDF is filled, an engineered barrier will be placed on top to prevent the release of waste and infiltration of rain. The S.M. Stoller Corporation announces a cooperative agreement with BTB Jansky of Germany to support the application and training for the use of the ProcessPlusTM software (December 2007) The S.M. Stoller Corporation will be supporting the BTB Jansky company of Germany with regard to the application of its’ ProcessPlusTM software. This software is a process data reconciliation system to optimize the operations of power plants, chemical plants, etc. Stoller will be supporting the use of this software and the training of personnel for the software application in the U.S. market. The first such application is at the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant owned by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) Corporation. The S.M. Stoller Corporation selected to operate CERCLA Disposal Facility at the Idaho National Laboratory for the next five years. Stoller was awarded a $5 million management and operation contract to continue operating the Idaho National Laboratory’s cleanup disposal facility for the next two years. The contract is effective Jan. 2, 2008 and includes three, one-year options following the initial two years. Idaho National Laboratory cleanup contractor CH2M-WG Idaho, a partnership between CH2M Hill and The Washington Group, awarded the contract to Stoller Dec. 8, 2007 in a competitive bid over one other competitor. Stoller built a second cell and managed and operated the Idaho Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act Disposal Facility, or ICDF, under a $41 million contract that began in 2003. “This contract win is a good example of performance based marketing,” said Dave Irvin, ICDF facility manager. “Over the past four years our team worked very well with the client and provided outstanding safety and operational performance.” Jim Van Vliet, Stoller northwest regional manager, also credited the Idaho team’s performance on winning the contract. “We not only were competitive in the market place, but the cost-saving measures we were able to deliver during the past contract really added muscle to our bid,” Van Vliet said. The 40-acre disposal facility is used for on-site disposal of soils, debris and equipment associated with the Idaho site cleanup. More than 300,000 tons of bulk waste, at up to 2,500 tons per day, has been disposed of at the facility to date. The disposal cell has also received more than 10,000 additional tons of miscellaneous debris, managed more than 176,000 gallons of wastewater and stabilized nearly 800 tons of mercury-contaminated soil. The S.M. Stoller Corporation begins implementing the new DOE Office of Legacy Management prime contract following resolution of three protests filed by competing bidders. Stoller, selected as the prime contractor supporting the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Legacy Management for the next 3 years, is implementing the new contract following resolution of three protests filed by competing contract bidders. The contract goes into effect Feb. 25, 2008, following a four-month transition period. Last June, DOE awarded Stoller the $170 million, thee-year prime contract, with a two-year renewable option, for surveillance and maintenance and technical support at more than 100 legacy sites across the nation. The contract is one of the largest 100 percent small-business contracts within the DOE. Stoller leads a team consisting of Source One; SAIC; Battelle Memorial Institute; JGMS, Inc.; Triumph Technologies, Inc.; EG&G; Booz Allen Hamilton; ProLogic, Inc.; and Commodore. Earlier this month, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) denied two protests filed by competing offerors for the DOE Office of Legacy Management contract awarded to Stoller in June 2007. More information on the GAO protests is available at http://www.gao.gov/decisions/bidpro/bidpro7.htm. On October 25, 2007, the Small Business Administration's Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) denied a size protest by a competing offeror for the contract. "We are very pleased with the decision of GAO and OHA to deny the protests of the contract awarded to us by the DOE Office of Legacy Management,” said Nick Lombardo, president of the S.M. Stoller Corporation. “We felt all along that the procurement was conducted fairly and very professionally by the Department of Energy procurement team. Their thoroughness and professionalism have been validated by these GAO decisions, and Stoller's status as a small business has been validated by the OHA decision.” The DOE Office of Legacy Management mission is to ensure the long-term protection of human health and the environment at legacy sites that have been closed and no longer support DOE’s ongoing national security and science missions, including the Fernald and Rocky Flats former nuclear weapons production facilities in Ohio and Colorado. Energy Department awards small business contract for Legacy Management work to S.M. Stoller Corporation The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced the award of a prime contract for the Department’s Office of Legacy Management (LM) Support Services work to S.M. Stoller Corporation for surveillance and maintenance and technical support at more than 100 of DOE’s legacy sites. The three-year contract, with one two-year extension option for a total of five years, is valued at approximately $170 million over the life of the contract and is one of the largest 100% small business contracts within DOE. The contract includes responsibility for legacy sites that have been closed and no longer support the Department's ongoing national security, energy and science missions, including the Rocky Flats and Fernald sites. "Together, the Department of Energy’s Office of Legacy Management and S.M. Stoller will continue to ensure the long-term protection of human health and the environment at over 100 legacy sites across the country," Michael Owen, Director of the Office of Legacy Management, said. "We look forward to working with our new prime contractor, the S.M. Stoller Corporation, to manage the Department’s post-closure surveillance, monitoring, and maintenance responsibilities. The contract will provide support services for DOE’s Office of Legacy Management in the following areas: long term surveillance and maintenance; land and facility reuse; project and program planning; environmental systems and applications; information technology management; records inquiry and processing; site active and inactive records management; real and personal property management; and community and public involvement. The mission of the Office of Legacy Management is to manage the Department’s post-closure responsibilities and ensure the future protection of human health and the environment. LM controls and has custody of legacy land, structures, and facilities and is responsible for maintaining them at levels suitable for their long-term use. In April, LM was designated by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as the second high performing organization, or "HPO", in the federal government and the first in the Department of Energy. An HPO is equivalent to a "most efficient organization" as defined by OMB standards for performance and cost. Media contact: Megan Barnett, (202) 586-4940 The S.M.

In its first appearance on the Inc. 500 list, Stoller achieved a respectable position at number 165. The July 2005 issue of Engineering News Record (ENR) ranked Stoller number 63 in its list of the Top 200 Environmental Firms. In ENR's July 2006 issue, Stoller is ranked at number 66 among the top 200. Stoller wins contract to provide support for Washington TRU Solutions LLC Central Characterization Project On Tuesday, May 30, 2006 Washington TRU Solutions LLC (WTS) awarded Stoller a contract worth $1.3 million to provide professional services support to the WTS Central Characterization Project (CCP). This is one of three contracts to facilitate an array of services to WIPP. In the June 2, 2006, Carlsbad Current-Argus U.S. Senator Pete Domenici said, "These contracts are essential to maintaining the safety and security of WIPP's operation. These contracts will ensure that WIPP continues to meet all federal regulatory requirements and continues to set the standard as a waste repository for the nation." Stoller will provide technical support such as, Site Project Manager, Vendor Project Manager, Site Project QA Officer, Project/Product Control Manager and Authorization /Safety Support. This contract has one 1-year and one 6-month extensions available. The proposal preparation was a team effort from the Carlsbad and Idaho Offices. Waste disposal subcontract awarded to small business RICHLAND, Wash.-Washington Closure Hanford has awarded a subcontract worth up to $22 million to the S.M. Stoller Corp., Lafayette, Colo., with offices in Richland, Wash., to operate the Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility on the 586-square-mile Hanford Site. "We are pleased to be working with Stoller and its team to operate ERDF," said Jeff James, Waste Operations Director for Washington Closure. Washington Closure manages ERDF and the River Corridor Closure Contract for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Richland Operations Office. "Stoller had the lowest price of four bidders, all of which were technically capable of doing the work," James said. Stoller will be responsible for landfill operations, which include transporting and maintaining roll-on/roll-off waste containers within the facility, receiving all types of waste containers, placing and compacting waste within the facility, and stabilizing or treating waste as necessary. They also will provide dust control at the facility. "We recognize the importance ERDF plays in the River Corridor cleanup strategy. We’re excited about this opportunity and have a strong leadership team in place that is eager to get started," said Nicholas Lombardo, President of S.M. Stoller Corp. ERDF is a large, engineered landfill located in the center of the Hanford Site and constructed to support Superfund wastes at Hanford. Low-level radioactive and mixed waste materials from cleanup efforts along the Columbia River corridor and other Hanford Site locations are transported to the facility for permanent disposal. DOE and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency provide oversight of ERDF operations. Designed to be expanded as necessary, ERDF began receiving waste in 1996 and has been expanded twice to meet Hanford cleanup needs. Workers have disposed of more than 6.3 million tons of waste material since the facility opened. Its current capacity is eight million tons. The Stoller team includes E2 Consulting Engineers of Golden, Colo.; Washington Safety Management Solutions of Boise, Idaho, a subsidiary of Washington Group International; Rogers Surveying of Richland; J-U-B Engineers of Kennewick, Wash.; and American Electric of Richland. Transition to Stoller will begin immediately from Duretek, the existing subcontractor. " The Duratek subcontract has been in place since ERDF opened in 1996. They have provided excellent service over the past decade and we appreciate the work they have done," said James. Stoller is re-awarded Environmental Surveillance, Education and Research (ESER) Contract Stoller was re-awarded the Environmental Surveillance, Education and Research (ESER) contract by the U.S. Department of Energy Idaho Operations Office on November 21, 2005. Stoller received 1,000 points out of a possible 1,000 points for an excellent rating and DOE determined Stoller’s proposal provided the best value to the government. Stoller proposed innovative approaches to regional university involvement, education and communication, innovative research capability, and conservation management planning. The current (and proposed) ESER staff was rated as "highly qualified and well suited to their positions" by DOE. DOE indicated that Stoller’s approach was "highly efficacious, feasible, appropriate and thorough." Stoller’s proposal received the most strengths (18 strengths-seven significant), no deficiencies, and only one insignificant weakness. Stoller’s excellent reputation on the previous ESER contract also contributed to the win. The proposal preparation was a team effort primarily from Lafayette and Idaho Falls. The S.M.

Stoller is the focus of a Boulder County Business Report article Please see the following: Boulder County Business Report (pdf) Environmental Business Journal Business Achievement Awards Recognize Industry's Best in 2003; Stoller awarded EBJ's Gold Medal Award for Medium-Sized Firms This year's EBJ business achievement award winners offer some familiar faces and some new medalists, but each recipient merits recognition for performance in what many our executives continue to characterize challenging times for the environmental industry. MEDIUM FIRMS (<$100 MILLION) Gold Medal: S.M. Stoller Corp. for executing a dramatic turnaround over the past several years, growing from 40 employees in the mid-1990s to over 400 employees today. The loss of a major DOE contract in 1995 prompted the exodus of hundreds of employees at the 40-year-old company. Several key employees acquired the company through private funding and initiated a turnaround plan that today has brought Stoller to the $75-million level in annual revenues today. In the past 18 months, Stoller has been awarded nearly $400 million in new contracts, including some of the largest let by DOE to small businesses: multiple contracts for DOE’s Pantex Plant in Texas; a $22-million contract at DOE’s Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site; a $33-million contract at the Idaho National Laboratory’s CERCLA Disposal Facility; prime contractor responsibility, exceeding $128 million, at DOE’s Grand Junction Office; and a $200-million contract at DOE’s Nevada Test Site.

Kailus Special to the Business Journal Published: December 22, 2003 ------------------------------------------------------------ When Nicholas Lombardo and partners Curtis Hull and Jim Moran purchased the S.M. Stoller Corp. in 1997, they found a firm that was floundering. Lombardo said that while Stoller, established in 1959, was always on the cutting edge of technology, the company just seemed to lack direction. "Diversifying is always a good thing. I just think they tried to diversify a little too much," he said, citing such distractions as producing CD-ROMs and Web material. After buying the company, the partners downsized Stoller from 50 employees to 30. Stoller brought in less than $5 million in revenue in 1998. "We had to look at our core competencies -- technical consulting to the nuclear industry. And we couldn't afford to do anything else," Lombardo said. The trio, which now owns 70 percent of the private environmental company in Lafayette, narrowed the company's focus into a specific niche. Stoller offers environmental, waste management, remediation and ecological services to the nuclear industry. That strategy obviously works, as the company is in the midst of a hot run: * It's won $400 million in contracts in 18 months. * Revenue for fiscal year 2003, ended Sept. 30, was $50 million, and Lombardo expects that to rise to $70 million in FY 2004. * Stoller ranks as one of the fastest-growing companies in Boulder County. * This month, the Department of Energy (DOE) gave Stoller its 2002 Secretary of Energy's Small Business Award for outstanding Facility Management Contractor (FMC) in the FMC/Small Business Teaming category. The award recognized Stoller's teamwork with five other companies at the DOE's Grand Junction site. Stoller provides program management, technical and administrative services to support the DOE's office there. The Stoller team is responsible for soil and groundwater assessment and remediation, radioactive and hazardous waste management, facility decommissioning, regulatory compliance, program management and laboratory management. The company has 35 employees at its Lafayette headquarters and about 370 full-time staffers nationwide. And Lombardo, the company president, said nobody's getting a big head. "Sometimes we don't really understand the magnitude of what we're doing. We still view ourselves as a small consulting company," he said. Stoller offers services in everything from ecological studies on field mice to intricate computer modeling. Employees include engineers, health physicists, geologists and quality-assurance experts who work from eight field offices in six states on projects that average five years. Locally, Stoller verifies and validates groundwater samples at Rocky Flats near Boulder. The company helps Kaiser Hill, the site's operating contractor, comply with waste requirements for shipping hazardous materials off the plateau, said Hull, the senior vice president. Whether it's testing groundwater or soil for seepage from radioactive contaminants, oils, solvents, heavy metals or unexploded ordnance, Stoller has its hands in just about everything. Luck also has played a part in Stoller winning these contracts. A recent congressional mandate demanding that government agencies award 25 percent of contracts to small businesses with fewer than 500 employees helped. Being in the right place at the right time also helped, especially when the commercial environmental industry is waning, Lombardo said. One of Stoller's key strategies, common in government-related work, is to partner with environmental companies such as CH2M Hill and Weston that it might otherwise compete against, Lombardo said. Often securing large contracts comes down to pooling the best talent, he said, and Stoller does this well. The teaming idea also translates to how Stoller's leadership functions and how the company works with clients. "A vast majority of our decisions are group-consensus decisions. Sometimes that's cumbersome, but at least our employees feel good that a lot of different points of view are taken into account," Lombardo said. According to the DOE's Don Metzler, who works with the company on a uranium mine tailings pile in Moab, Utah, "Stoller came in with a winning attitude and they really looked to DOE as the customer. It's a combination of good, well-known technical people rolled up with a customer-oriented team atmosphere." The DOE has been especially attracted to Stoller's connection to top, diversified talent. "They brought in fresh technical people, and they have people with private industry experience," Metzler said. "It's important for the feds to do the handshake with private industry to make sure we're aligned. We can learn something from them [private industry] about efficiencies, and the street goes both ways." Virgene Ideker Mulligan, manager of analytical services for Kaiser Hill, agreed: "Stoller is very client-oriented," she said. "There's no pointing fingers, and if they make a mistake, they acknowledge it and fix it." Stoller proposal manager Carol Tarter Petersen said Stoller is winning more than 50 percent of its contract bids. Having just secured a five-year, $200 million joint-venture contract to clean up DOE sites in five states, Stoller clearly has garnered the attention of at least one major government department. Breaking into other federal agencies, however, has proved challenging, said Lombardo, who believes Department of Defense projects, for example, often go to whoever has been in the Rolodex the longest. For now, Stoller is too busy to stew over missed opportunities. With significant projects in Colorado, Idaho, Washington, Tennessee, Texas, Ohio, Nevada, New Mexico, Mississippi and Alaska, there's no looking back.
