DOE TENORM Disposal IDIQ

The DOE TENORM Disposal IDIQ is a master contract vehicle enabling the Department of Energy to procure radioactive waste disposal services for Technology Enhanced Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (TENORM) and low-level radioactive waste. The contract specifically supports the disposal of Class A, B, and C low-level waste and associated ancillary services. Established on April 12, 2013, with a shared ceiling of $300 million, the contract provides a standardized mechanism for ordering disposal services for various types of radioactive materials from different government facilities.

The task orders under this IDIQ predominantly involve radioactive waste disposal projects for facilities like Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and Nuclear Fuel Services, with typical task order values ranging from approximately $30,000 to over $2 million. Energy Solutions, LLC appears to be a primary contractor, consistently winning task orders for disposing of low-level radioactive waste, used equipment, excess materials, and contaminated soil. The task orders are consistently firm fixed-price and do not utilize set-aside designations. Performance locations include facilities in Utah (such as Salt Lake City) and sites associated with nuclear research and production, with the National Nuclear Security Administration and Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management serving as primary funding agencies. The contract's ultimate completion date was April 11, 2018, suggesting it was a time-limited vehicle for specialized radioactive waste management services.
