Disposal of Hazardous, Non-Hazardous Waste, and Regulated Garbage Generated at Dover AFB

The 436 Contracting Squadron at Dover Air Force Base is soliciting proposals for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to provide comprehensive waste disposal services, including the collection, transportation, treatment, and disposal of hazardous waste, non-hazardous waste, and regulated garbage generated at the installation. The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command requires services that encompass emergency spill response with a mandatory 2-hour response time, management of various waste streams including contaminated soil, petroleum products, fire fighting foam, and regulated garbage from international flights. Offerors must demonstrate compliance with federal, state, and local environmental regulations while providing all necessary labor, equipment, and documentation for waste handling operations. The evaluation will prioritize technical approach and past performance over pricing, focusing on regulatory compliance understanding, waste handling processes, spill response capabilities, and personnel qualifications. Proposals must be submitted in three volumes by July 1, 2025, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time, consisting of technical approach, past performance with 3-5 relevant references, and price/cost information including unit pricing for various waste types and services.

This opportunity is set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS code 562112 (Hazardous Waste Collection), representing a re-compete of the previous BPA FA449720A0027. The total contract value is estimated at $47,000,000 over the five-year performance period from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2030. The contractor will manage various waste categories including both RCRA and non-RCRA regulated wastes, ranging from containerized liquids and solids to bulk materials, and must maintain capability to deploy up to 1,000 linear feet of containment boom for spill response. All services will be performed at Dover Air Force Base in Dover, Delaware, with interested small businesses required to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). The scope includes managing roll-off containers, storage tank cleanouts, and specialized handling of waste from international flight operations, with services provided on an as-needed basis throughout the contract period.
