About this award

The U.S. Forest Service Job Corps awarded a $10,357.98 firm fixed-price purchase order to the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) for emergency water line repairs at the Oconalugtee residential training campus in Cherokee, North Carolina. The contract was issued under a moratorium exception due to an imminent health and safety threat: a 2-inch waterline serving the dormitory had failed and was surfacing, requiring immediate remediation to ensure continued operations at the 24/7 residential training facility. The award, made on July 25, 2025, carries an ultimate completion date of October 31, 2025, and was executed without a set-aside designation despite EBCI's status as a federally recognized Native American tribe and tribally-owned enterprise.

This emergency procurement reflects the Forest Service Job Corps' reliance on local tribal vendors for critical infrastructure maintenance and repair services. EBCI, with approximately 16,200 enrolled members, has demonstrated substantial capacity executing federal contracts across infrastructure, utilities, and emergency services. The tribe's prior federal contract experience includes a $20 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Bureau of Indian Affairs for potable bottled water and various service agreements with other federal agencies, positioning it as a capable provider for time-sensitive facility maintenance needs in the Cherokee, North Carolina area.
