The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), through its Office of Acquisitions and Grants, awarded a sole source firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $43,036.10 to the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES) for surface water analysis services. The contract, which commenced on September 10, 2024, and extends through December 31, 2028, supports the USGS Maryland/Delaware/District of Columbia Water Science Center by maintaining continuity of long-term chlorophyll dataset analysis for the Maryland Rivulet Information Management (MD-RIM) program. UMCES was selected without competitive procurement due to its 12+ years of specialized experience with this dataset; changing laboratories would introduce unacceptable uncertainty and error into the data quality assurance process. The contract involves no set-aside designation and is classified under NAICS code 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services). This modification to the existing purchase order enhances compliance with updated federal guidance by eliminating non-statutory sustainability requirements and strengthening representational and certification clauses within the contract terms. Work will be performed at UMCES's facility in Solomons, Maryland, where the organization will continue its critical role as a trusted federal research partner in environmental monitoring and water quality testing. The award reflects the government's reliance on UMCES's established technical capabilities and institutional knowledge to support long-term environmental data integrity requirements for the USGS.
