Energy (DOE) Small Business Administration (SBA) 8(a)/Small Disadvantaged Business
Contractor of the Year Award recipient for 2008.

This prestigious honor is given annually
to a small business that demonstrates excellence in DOE’s SBA 8(a)/Small-
Disadvantaged Business socio-economic programs or functional areas that directly
contribute to core DOE mission accomplishments. The award is part of DOE’s
Secretarial Small Business Awards Program and will be presented to SKA during the
10th Annual DOE Small Business Conference in Long Beach, California (August 11-14).

In 2007, DOE awarded SKA the Technical Assistance Contract (TAC) for the Moab
Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action (UMTRA) Project in Utah. In partnership with
S&K Technologies and Pro2Serve, SKA offers services to support the safe removal of
uranium mill tailings from the Moab site to a disposal cell near Crescent Junction, Utah.

The TAC team provides project integration, information technology and
telecommunications, records management, training, safeguards and security, public
affairs, and other support services for the project. The TAC team also operates the ground
water remediation system.

The DOE Office of Environmental Management Moab Federal Project Director and TAC
Contracting Officer Representative nominated SKA for this DOE Secretarial award. SKA
was selected because of its creative solutions to meet DOE requirements and its
extraordinary customer service and significant value to the government. “This award is a
great recognition of our performance on this contract, which is SKA’s first with DOE,”
said Tony Amadeo, SKA Vice President of Midwest Operations. “SKA would like to
thank the employees of the TAC for their outstanding efforts, as well as the DOE staff
and the other contractors working on the Moab Project, who together act as a singularly
focused team.”
