Decontamination Tank Repair VA Loma Linda Health Care Systems

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice to identify qualified contractors for the repair of an underground storage tank at VA Loma Linda Health Care Systems in Loma Linda, California. The primary scope of work involves removing a heavily corroded manhole cover, performing certified environmental testing (CAM 17 TTLC and VOC testing) to ensure safe entry conditions, and replacing damaged components including a spill bucket, cast iron base drain valve, nipple, and bronze swivel fill adapter, along with proper hazardous waste collection and disposal from the contaminated water storage tank. Qualified contractors must possess a 30-hour OSHA safety card, a C-36 Plumbing License or General B Contractors License, and International Code Council (ICC) California Underground Storage Tank Certification. Interested offerors must submit capability statements addressing their organizational qualifications and history of similar work by February 6, 2026 at 11:00 AM Mountain Daylight Time, and all companies must be registered in SAM.gov to be considered. The contract specialist Jordan Alonzo at jordan.alonzo@va.gov or (505) 767-6094 is available as the primary point of contact for inquiries.

The solicitation is currently unrestricted and available for full and open competition; however, the VA is mandated to initially consider a Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business set-aside designation before potentially pursuing alternate set-asides or proceeding with full competition if adequate responses are not received. The estimated contract value is $16.5 million for a one-year period beginning March 1, 2026 and concluding February 28, 2027, making this a significant procurement opportunity in the environmental remediation and waste management services sector. The work will be managed through the contracting office located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the contract is classified under NAICS code 562998 (All Other Miscellaneous Waste Management Services) and Product Service Code J046 (Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment—Water Purification and Sewage Treatment Equipment). No incumbent contractor information has been disclosed at this pre-solicitation stage, and this Sources Sought Notice represents the initial phase of market research rather than the formal solicitation period.
