About this IDV
EPA Region 5 awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to Tetra Tech, Inc. for $73.3 million on November 21, 2024, under the Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team VI (START VI) program, with performance extending through November 20, 2029. This is one of multiple awards under the START VI program.
Work is performed in Chicago, Illinois, and encompasses comprehensive environmental remediation and technical assessment services across the Great Lakes region, including site investigations, groundwater and soil sampling, monitoring well installation, remedial design planning, vapor intrusion mitigation, construction oversight, and emergency environmental response capabilities.
The originating solicitation was issued as a sources-sought notice on April 3, 2024, requesting capabilities statements for technical assessment and response services related to Superfund sites.
As of April 2026, START VI has generated approximately 18 delivery orders totaling roughly $31.0 million. Recent task orders include a $15.04 million East Palestine train derailment emergency response and cleanup delivery order (June 2025); removal activities orders valued at $5.84 million (December 2024); allied paper contractor support at $2.52 million (April 2025); program and administrative overhead support at $2.86 million (November 2024); and data management support activities at $506,377 (October 2025). Additional site-specific orders address Adam's Plating, LaSalle Electrical Utilities, Dearborn, Main Street Well Field, Lindsay Light, Chemetco, and Lake Linden Recreation Area sediments, with individual ceiling values ranging from $21,082 to $494,796. Most delivery orders operate on a time-and-materials basis; some emergency response equipment and training exercise orders use firm fixed-price pricing. Subcontractors include ALS Group USA Corporation and Als Environmental for laboratory analysis, Cascade Drilling for subsurface investigations, and Field Environmental Instruments Inc. for equipment rental.
