The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is soliciting environmental remediation services for a UST contaminated soil and groundwater investigation at the McGrath Administrative Site within Innoko National Wildlife Refuge in McGrath, Alaska. The primary requirement involves comprehensive contamination delineation, installation of groundwater monitoring wells, free product recovery, sample analysis, and preparation of a Site Characterization Report and Corrective Action Completion Report in accordance with a detailed Statement of Work. Prospective offerors must be Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC)-qualified environmental professionals meeting the regulatory requirements under 18 AAC 75.33 and must maintain active SAM registration with a valid Unique Entity ID. Award will be made on a best-value basis, with price evaluated first, followed by required qualifications, technical approach, and past performance. The deadline for submission of quotes has been extended to April 15, 2026 at 1:00 PM Central Time, with requests for information having been due by March 26, 2026 at 10:00 AM Central Time.

This solicitation is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside with a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) requirement, limiting competition to qualified small businesses. Based on prior remediation efforts documented in 2018, the site contains confirmed diesel range organics (DRO) contamination exceeding Alaska cleanup levels, indicating the scope of the current investigation. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price commercial acquisition with a primary lump-sum line item (CLIN 0001) for the complete investigation, supplemented by three optional line items for additional soil samples (CLIN 0002), groundwater monitoring well installations (CLIN 0003), and groundwater sampling events (CLIN 0004), with unit pricing for each. The period of performance runs from April 20, 2026 through December 31, 2026, with primary deliverables due by September 30, 2026, and the project will be performed at the McGrath Administrative Site, C/O Innoko NWR, McGrath, Alaska.
