This is a Vendor Price Proposal attachment for laboratory testing services solicited by the County of Sacramento, Department of Waste Management and Recycling. The County is procuring comprehensive environmental testing services to support groundwater quality monitoring across three landfill facilities (Kiefer, Elk Grove, and Grand Island Landfills) and associated monitoring locations for the three-year period covering fiscal years 2026-2027, 2027-2028, and 2028-2029. The testing scope encompasses volatile organic compounds (EPA 8260 and extended lists), semi-volatile organic compounds (EPA 8270), pesticides and herbicides (EPA 8080, 8141, and 8151), and inorganic parameters including metals, PFAS analysis, and ancillary services. The proposal template specifies detailed quantities across both years and three years, with notable testing volumes including 272 EPA 8260 volatile organics tests, 213 bicarbonate tests, 205 total dissolved solids tests, 38 calcium and magnesium tests, and 56 electronic data deliverables (EDDs and EDFs). The RFP was posted on May 4, 2026, with proposals due on May 26, 2026. The contract requires a minimum 10 working day turnaround time for final laboratory reports and optional expedited reporting capabilities.

The vendor price proposal format requires submission of unit pricing for each constituent and service line item across all three fiscal years, with vendors calculating total contract value based on their proposed rates. The RFP does not disclose a specific total contract value or budget range, requiring interested bidders to reference complete documentation for compensation structure details. No set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are specified, indicating an open procurement available to all qualified laboratory service providers. The solicitation identifies no incumbent vendors or current contractors, suggesting this represents a new contract or re-competition. Laboratories located within 10 miles of DWMR's Rancho Cordova office (10863 Gold Center Drive) with staffed service centers during business hours (8:30 AM to 4:30 PM) may be waived from courier service requirements. Selected vendors must be accredited by the California State Water Resources Control Board Division of Drinking Water or equivalent, perform a minimum of 80 percent of analyses in-house, and maintain specified method detection limits and sample volume requirements per California Code of Regulations Title 22 Section 64400.
