Purchase Order 12639526P0023

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Veterinary Services awarded a $12,440 firm fixed-price purchase order to Lewis Environmental LLC on December 26, 2025, for dumpster and disposal services in support of High-Pathogenicity Avian Influenza (HPAI) response operations. The work will be performed at a facility located at 774 3rd Avenue in Brooklyn, New York 11232, with an ultimate completion date of January 9, 2026. This award was not issued under a small business set-aside designation. Lewis Environmental LLC, a Royersford, Pennsylvania-based environmental remediation and emergency response services provider, brings substantial expertise to HPAI outbreak support, having executed multiple contracts with APHIS involving bird disposal, decontamination services, and waste management across multiple states.

The contract supports critical disease control operations during avian influenza responses, where rapid disposal of affected poultry and associated materials is essential to prevent further spread of the virus. Lewis Environmental's established track record with APHIS on similar response contracts—ranging from compost windrow construction to decontamination line operations—positions the company to efficiently execute this disposal services requirement in the New York region. The relatively short performance window reflects the time-sensitive nature of HPAI outbreak containment activities.
