NPS GWMP Vessel Removal and Disposal Services

The Department of the Interior Interior Business Center is seeking vessel removal and disposal services for the National Park Service George Washington Memorial Parkway (GWMP) to remove two derelict vessels from Dyke Marsh Wildlife Preserve. The procurement involves the complete removal, transportation, and disposal of a 23-foot Tanzer sailboat and a 35-42 foot Mainship powerboat using specialized equipment including a barge-mounted excavator and oil containment booms while ensuring minimal environmental disruption. Contractors must submit both technical and pricing volumes, with the technical submission including a derelict vessel removal plan, debris disposal plan, and past performance references demonstrating relevant experience within the past three years. The solicitation will be evaluated on a best value basis, with the government awarding a single firm-fixed-price purchase order to the most advantageous quote. Critical dates include the Q&A closure at 3:00 PM on June 24, 2025, and the quote submission deadline of 11:00 AM Eastern Time on July 3, 2025.

This procurement is unrestricted with no set-aside designation and falls under NAICS code 562119 for Other Waste Collection services with a small business size standard of $47 million. The contract requires removal and disposal of exactly two vessels with a performance period running from July 21, 2025, to September 4, 2025. Work will be performed at Dyke Marsh Wildlife Preserve along the George Washington Memorial Parkway, with contractors responsible for conducting site inspections at their own initiative and cost since no mandatory government-hosted site visit will be provided. The solicitation emphasizes that contractors must navigate potentially challenging low tide conditions in some areas of Dyke Marsh and comply with various federal environmental regulations and standards. No incumbent contractor information or specific contract values were disclosed in the available documentation.
