Phosphorus credits

Ecosystem Services LLC was awarded a contract by the Virginia Department of Transportation on August 18, 2026, with a cumulative contract value of $2,467.50. The prime contractor will deliver phosphorus credits, measured in pounds, to Deborah Elliott Marques at a unit price of $16,450 per pound. This contract represents a procurement of environmental compliance or mitigation services within Virginia's transportation infrastructure portfolio.

The contract specifications indicate a single line item for phosphorus credits, which are environmental commodities typically used to offset nutrient pollution in waterways or support water quality improvement initiatives. The relatively modest cumulative contract value suggests a limited quantity procurement, though the unit price reflects the specialized nature of phosphorus credit commodities. No specific performance period or county designation is detailed in the available documentation.
