About this award
California State Polytechnic University Humboldt was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $23,850 by the U.S. Geological Survey's Office of Acquisitions and Grants to lease a vessel for marine scientific missions in the southern Cascadia subduction zone. This modification extends the period of performance through September 30, 2025, to enable the recovery of a waveglider deployed during initial scientific operations. The contract represents no set-aside designation and continues the university's established role supporting USGS research initiatives from its Eureka, California location. The vessel lease supports two primary mission components: the initial deployment of seafloor geodetic stations and instruments (scheduled for July 21-25, 2025) and the subsequent retrieval of the waveglider approximately 4-6 weeks after deployment near Humboldt Bay.
The underlying procurement sought a U.S. Coast Guard-licensed vessel of at least 90 feet in length equipped with specialized scientific capabilities including a 15-foot vertical clearance A-frame, a 3,500-pound safe working load winch, and 400 square feet of working deck space to accommodate eight personnel for 24-hour operations. These scientific missions are conducted collaboratively with the USGS Earthquake Hazards Program, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and University of Stuttgart to measure strain accumulation along the Cascadia subduction megathrust interface. Humboldt State University has demonstrated consistent capability in providing vessel charter services and marine research support to federal agencies, with this contract reflecting the university's strategic location and established expertise in coastal marine operations.
