USACE Nationwide Radiological Waste Disposal 2024 - 2029

The USACE Nationwide Radiological Waste Disposal 2024-2029 Master Blanket Purchase Agreement provides radioactive waste disposal and environmental remediation services for contaminated sites across the United States. Awarded on May 1, 2024, with a shared ceiling of $49.9 million and an ordering period extending through April 30, 2029, this vehicle supports the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency in managing hazardous waste cleanup, soil remediation, and related environmental services at Superfund sites and other federally-contaminated locations. Vendors awarded under this Master BPA must possess and maintain appropriate licenses or permits approved by USACE for the disposal of various types of radioactive waste, including low-level radioactive waste and combined low-level waste, and must comply with all applicable Federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The originating solicitation (W912DQ24R3009) indicates that specific waste streams include approximately 20,000 tons of contaminated soil and debris requiring specialized treatment such as pozzolanic stabilization or chemical oxidation to meet land disposal restrictions, with work completion required within 36 months of individual task order award.

Task orders issued under this Master BPA have ranged from approximately $273,000 to $7.3 million in ceiling value, with completion periods typically spanning 12 to 36 months from award. The EPA Superfund program and Department of Defense Environmental Programs serve as the primary funding sources for these task orders, which have consistently been awarded without small business set-aside designations. Major prime contractors winning task orders include Republic Services Inc. and Energysolutions LLC, both large businesses with demonstrated expertise in environmental remediation and nuclear waste management. Task order performance locations are distributed across geographically dispersed Superfund sites, including locations in New Jersey (Gloucester City, Deepwater, and Maywood), New York (Eighteen Mile Creek), and Michigan (Belleville), reflecting the nationwide scope of remediation activities. Work scopes under awarded task orders have encompassed site-specific remediation activities, hazardous waste cleanup, groundwater treatment, soil remediation, and demolition services at formerly contaminated industrial sites and federal installations.
