About this award
Ocean Gold Seafoods, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Westport, Washington, was awarded a definitive contract by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on June 7, 2023, to conduct a Cooperative Nearshore California Current Ecosystem Survey. This contract, valued at approximately $5.0 million with a completion date of May 31, 2028, represents the exercise of Option Period III and incorporates updated federal wage determinations.

Under this firm fixed-price contract, Ocean Gold Seafoods will provide longline charter services to support biological sampling and acoustic data collection monitoring of coastal pelagic species, including Pacific sardine populations, off the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and northern California.
This contract award reflects NOAA's continued investment in fisheries monitoring and ecosystem research capabilities in the Pacific region. Ocean Gold Seafoods' specialized marine research services, including vessel charter operations and advanced data collection equipment, support the agency's fisheries management and coastal ecosystem assessment objectives. The contract's multi-year duration and substantial ceiling value underscore the critical nature of ongoing nearshore ecosystem monitoring, which informs sustainable fisheries management and environmental stewardship in California Current waters. The company's established track record of delivering marine research services to NOAA and other federal agencies positions it to execute the required survey operations effectively.
