The Bureau of Land Management Alaska Fire Service is seeking a contractor to clean, disinfect, and sanitize a 10,000-gallon steel water storage tank and associated 8-inch water pipe at the Alaska Interagency Visitors Center in Coldfoot, Alaska.

The work requires strict adherence to safety protocols, use of personal protective equipment, water quality testing for total coliform and chlorine levels, and compliance with the Buy American Act. This is a firm fixed-price procurement processed under FAR 13.105 as a combined synopsis/solicitation, with quotes due by August 1, 2025, at 5:00 PM AKDT and submitted electronically to Lisa Brune at lbrune@blm.gov. Offerors must include their UEI or CAGE Code with their submissions, and while the government anticipates awarding a single contract, multiple awards may be made if more advantageous.
