About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service intends to award a sole-source contract to the Klamath Tribes for water quality testing and nutrient analysis services at the OR-Klamath Falls Fish Hatchery on a sole-source basis.
The justification rests on two rationales: the Klamath Tribes' logistically advantageous location, which enables hand-delivery of samples by Fish and Wildlife Service staff and contributes to sample integrity, and their historical performance providing these services, which ensures continuity of vital data quality. The attached Single Source Justification form (FWS Form 3-0034) notes that while other laboratories possess technical capability to perform standard nutrient analysis, competitive solicitation was not pursued due to risks of methodological discontinuity and dataset incompatibility. The service includes a full nutrient panel analyzing total nitrogen, ammonia, nitrate/nitrite, total phosphorus, total dissolved phosphorus, and orthophosphate. The performance period runs from August 15, 2026, through December 31, 2029. The justification confirms that the proposed cost is fair and reasonable compared to other qualified laboratories and that the Klamath Tribes' pricing is generally significantly lower than competitors. The contract is awarded under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.
