About this vehicle
EPA Region 9 established this Master IDIQ for cleanup, response, and construction services at abandoned uranium mining-related sites in the Navajo Nation and Grants Mining District in New Mexico, with ordering authority that closed on January 4, 2026. The vehicle is no longer active for new task-order placement.
The contract was awarded as a total small business set-aside on January 14, 2021. Only two task orders have been issued under the vehicle since its establishment: one in February 2023 for contaminated soil removal and disposal at the Cove Transfer Station Complex ($33.6 million obligated) and one in September 2025 for time-critical removal action support at Navajo Nation Mesa V ($16.1 million obligated). Both orders are firm fixed price and scheduled to complete by January 24, 2027. The combined potential value of awarded task orders is $49.7 million, which represents 100 percent obligated funding—no remaining capacity exists under the vehicle ceiling of $220 million.
Arrowhead Contracting, LLC holds both task orders and captures the entire $49.7 million in obligated value. All ordering activity has originated from EPA Region 9. The awarded task orders show a split set-aside mix: the Cove Transfer Station order carried no set-aside designation, while the Mesa V order is designated total small business. Work is geographically concentrated in the Navajo Nation and Grants Mining District of New Mexico.
The ordering pace has been sparse—one order per year in 2023 and 2025—with extended gaps between awards. The vehicle's original ordering window spanned five years, but ordering ended in January 2026 with the bulk of the combined ceiling still unexercised. Low order velocity and the closure of ordering authority suggest this vehicle is unlikely to generate additional procurement activity.
Description
Cleanup, response, and construction services primarily at the former uranium mining-related sites located in the navajo nation and the grants mining district in New Mexico in EPA regions 6 and 9.
