About this opportunity
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service issued this sole source justification notice on March 10, 2026, for annual maintenance services for specialized aquaculture equipment at Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery in Washington. The contract covers preventive and emergency maintenance services, including necessary parts, for four SITA UV400/18 TC UL disinfection units and three HEX X33HP microscreen drum filters that comprise the facility's partially-recirculating aquaculture system (pRAS). Integrated Aqua is the sole awardee, as the justification establishes they are the only known service provider with the specialized expertise, manufacturer-specific training, and operational knowledge required to safely service these systems while the hatchery's live fish operations are running. The agency determined that no other vendors possess the technical capability to meet Leavenworth's requirement for emergency response within one business day or access to original equipment manufacturer parts. This annual maintenance is critical to supporting the hatchery's mission of rearing approximately 280,000 spring Chinook salmon annually while maintaining water quality standards and equipment longevity. The notice was posted for information purposes only, with capability statements from interested parties accepted through March 25, 2026, and pricing will be established through comparison to previous requisitions.
