About this award
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Water awarded a $3.32 million delivery order contract to Eastern Research Group Inc. (ERG) on August 14, 2020, for mitigation of transboundary wastewater flows in the Tijuana River Watershed under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). The contract employs a time and materials pricing structure with no set-aside designation and extends through March 31, 2024. ERG, a Massachusetts-based environmental and health consulting firm, will deliver technical, research, and program management services supporting EPA's water resources protection mission. The work involves comprehensive technical and regulatory support addressing wastewater management challenges in a binational watershed, reflecting the agency's commitment to environmental protection and international cooperation under USMCA obligations.

(Ross Strategic), headquartered in Seattle, will provide facilitation services, stakeholder engagement support, and technical assistance drawing on its extensive experience with EPA water infrastructure projects. PG Environmental, LLC, based in Chantilly, Virginia, will contribute water resources consulting expertise including water quality management and environmental assessment capabilities. Both subcontractors bring established expertise in federal environmental consulting, with Ross Strategic maintaining a $4 million EPA Office of Water blanket purchase agreement and PG Environmental holding a $20 million EPA Region 9 contract vehicle, positioning them to deliver coordinated technical and stakeholder engagement services supporting effective transboundary wastewater mitigation efforts.
