The Bureau of Land Management's Vale, Oregon District is seeking a contractor to provide wash water disposal services for Single Engine Air Tanker (SEAT) base operations in Ontario, Oregon. The procurement involves removing and disposing of contaminated wash water from aircraft operations, requiring the contractor to respond within 3 hours of notification to handle approximately 15 trips of 9,000 gallons of contaminated water throughout the contract period. The solicitation requests a firm fixed-price commercial service contract with a performance period from July 15, 2025 to July 14, 2026, including an annual year-end cleaning requirement. Evaluation will be based on past performance, experience, and price, with the award going to the responsible offeror whose proposal is most advantageous to the government. Quotations must be submitted electronically to dcroom@blm.gov by July 7, 2025, with questions required to be submitted 24 hours before the solicitation closing date.

This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 562211 (Hazardous Waste Treatment and Disposal) with a small business size standard of $41.5 million in annual receipts. The contract will involve handling approximately 135,000 gallons of contaminated wash water over the course of the one-year performance period, based on the estimated 15 trips of 9,000 gallons each. Services will be performed at the Ontario SEAT base located in Ontario, Oregon, within the counties covered by the applicable Department of Labor wage determination including Baker, Grant, Harney, Malheur, Morrow, Umatilla, Union, and Wallowa counties. The time-sensitive nature of the work requires contractors to demonstrate their capability to meet the 3-hour response requirement for wash water removal. No incumbent contractor or specific budget range is identified in the solicitation materials, though the specialized nature of hazardous waste disposal and aviation support services suggests this is likely a continuing requirement for seasonal firefighting operations.
