The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Veterinary Services awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $4,205 to Lewis Environmental LLC on March 4, 2026, for disposal services supporting High-Pathogenicity Avian Influenza (HPAI) response operations. The contract requires Lewis Environmental to provide carcass and litter disposal services from a poultry facility designated as Kings 12, transporting materials to a designated staging site in Brooklyn, New York. The award carries an ultimate completion date of March 6, 2026, and was not designated as a set-aside contract. This award is part of the federal government's ongoing response to the 2022 HPAI outbreak, which has required coordinated disposal and containment efforts across multiple states.

Lewis Environmental LLC, a Royersford, Pennsylvania-based environmental remediation and emergency response services provider, has established itself as a primary contractor for APHIS Veterinary Services' HPAI response initiatives since 2021. The company's extensive experience includes carcass disposal, compost windrow construction and operation, decontamination services, and emergency cleanup at poultry facilities across Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Arkansas. Beyond its APHIS work, Lewis Environmental maintains a substantial contract portfolio with the U.S. Coast Guard through an Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity agreement valued at nearly $4 million for oil spill and hazardous materials mitigation, as well as smaller engagements with the Department of Veterans Affairs and Delaware National Guard, positioning the company as a versatile federal emergency response contractor.
