About this opportunity
The Environmental Protection Agency Region 9 published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the Freely Associated States (FAS) EPA Water Quality Lab Certification Program, valued at $308,000. The contract provides technical support to maintain and improve water quality laboratory capabilities in Palau, Marshall Islands, and Micronesia, focusing on protecting island populations from health risks associated with contaminated water and enhancing economic potential. The agency conducted market research through GSA and SAM.gov Request for Information postings in April 2025, which identified Buchan Edna dba Nimbus Environmental Services (NES) as the only vendor capable of fully meeting the requirements. NES was selected as the sole source contractor based on their status as an EPA-accredited Laboratory Certification Officer with previous experience performing these specialized services. The contract encompasses six primary tasks including certification program management, lab equipment and supplies, certification and training requirements, reports, technical assistance, and optional tasks. Contract 68HE0925C0002 was awarded on September 29, 2025, to support the critical water quality laboratory certification needs across these Pacific island territories.
