The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Water awarded a $27 million multiple-award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) to Northern Lake Service Inc., a certified HUBZone small business, to provide analytical chemistry laboratory services supporting the Fifth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5) program. Under this IDC, the EPA has issued several delivery orders to Northern Lake Service Inc. for UCMR 5 sample analysis, including a $1,486,885 firm fixed price task order, a $1,022,330 firm fixed price task order, and a $464,555 firm fixed price task order. The work is to be performed at Northern Lake Service Inc.'s facility in Crandon, Wisconsin. This IDC, awarded in August 2022 and running through August 2027, requires the contractor to support monitoring of approximately 30 new chemical contaminants, including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and lithium, in public water systems nationwide. The original EPA solicitation, published as a Special Notice in April 2021, informed analytical laboratories of the opportunity to compete for these UCMR 5 support contracts, and specified that subcontracting would not be permitted.
