    Subdivision 1.    Request for proposals.  The director 
 shall issue requests for proposals for the development and 
 operation of a stabilization and containment facility.  The 
 request must be designed to obtain detailed information about

 facility; the capital and operating costs of the facility and 
 the sources and methods by which the respondent plans to finance 
 the facility; the technical specifications of the proposed 
 facility and the technologies to be employed for processing, 
 stabilization, containment, and monitoring; the requirements of 
 the site for the proposed facility; the schedule for developing 
 and commencing operation of the facility; and other matters 
 which the director deems necessary for the office to evaluate 
 and select a developer and operator for the facility.  Before 
 issuing the requests, the director shall prepare a draft of 
 clauses (a) to (e) of the report required by section 115A.193.  
 The draft must accompany the requests for proposals. 

    Subd. 2.    Selection of developer; procedure.  After 
 evaluating responses to the request for proposals and before 
 selecting a site as provided in section 115A.194, the office 
 shall decide whether to select a developer for a stabilization 
 and containment facility.  If the office selects a developer it 
 shall proceed as provided in section 115A.194 to select a site 
 for the development of a facility.  If the office decides not to 
 select a developer, the office shall proceed as provided in 
 section 115A.194 to select and acquire a site for potential
