BLK NF Spearfish WC Asbestos Abatement

The USDA Forest Service's Rocky Mountain Region is seeking a contractor to perform asbestos abatement services at the Spearfish Work Center Flammable Storage Building in the Black Hills National Forest, South Dakota. The scope involves removing approximately 1,025 square feet of asbestos-containing building materials (ACBM), specifically transite wall and ceiling panels, from the interior of the flammable paint storage shed, along with all associated labor, materials, equipment, transportation, and disposal services. Contractors must hold South Dakota Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources (SD DANR) certifications for project supervisors and workers, and must submit technical proposals demonstrating past performance, technical capability, and required certifications along with an Asbestos Abatement Safety Plan and Quality Control Plan with third-party air monitoring. The evaluation criteria focus on technical capability (meets/does not meet standard), past performance (rated from exceptional to unsatisfactory), and price reasonableness. Proposals are due electronically to stephen.holly@usda.gov by September 29, 2025, at 10:00 AM Mountain Time, with an organized site visit scheduled for 10:00 AM on Friday, September 26, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a 100% set-aside for small businesses under NAICS code 562910 (Remediation Services). No incumbent contractors or specific award values are identified in the solicitation materials, though the project is structured as a lump sum contract with three primary components: general requirements/mobilization, asbestos material removal, and disposal of asbestos-containing materials. The performance period runs from September 30, 2025, through October 30, 2025, with a delivery completion date of December 19, 2025, and the contractor must comply with prevailing wage requirements outlined in the Department of Labor's wage determination. The work location is approximately 2 miles south of Spearfish, South Dakota, at an elevation of 4,375 feet, with the project serving as a preparatory step for the building's final decommissioning after a replacement storage facility was already installed in fiscal years 2022-2023. All work must comply with federal and state regulations including OSHA, EPA, and South Dakota environmental guidelines.
