Harrison Co. Multi-Well Plugging Package

The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection's Office of Oil and Gas is soliciting bids for the Harrison County Multi-Well Plugging Package, an environmental remediation project involving the permitting, plugging, and reclamation of twenty-one wells with specific API numbers. The Agency Request for Quote (ARFQ DEP2500000055) requires comprehensive services including site permitting, well plugging, and complete site reclamation for each individual well location. A mandatory pre-bid meeting was held on March 19, 2025, with technical questions accepted until March 24, 2025, at 2:00 pm eastern time. The solicitation requires electronic bid submission through the wvOASIS Vendor Self Service platform, with final bids due on March 31, 2025, at 10:30 am. Vendors must submit detailed line items for each well, demonstrating technical capabilities to perform complex environmental remediation tasks, and must comply with state-specific requirements including maintaining workers' compensation insurance and drug-free workplace policies. The contract term is one calendar year with potential for three successive one-year renewals, with vendors expected to complete comprehensive documentation and reporting for each well site.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Vendors must submit several critical financial documents, including a bid bond equaling 5% of the total bid, a performance bond covering 100% of the contract value, and a labor/material payment bond. While specific contract value is not definitively stated, the project involves detailed environmental work across multiple well sites in Harrison County, suggesting a potentially significant procurement opportunity. The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection maintains sole discretion regarding contract modifications, including the potential to remove wells from the contract if necessary. Vendors will be expected to complete the project within a standard 180-day performance period, with the department indicating flexibility for contract extensions if the vendor is demonstrating consistent progress. All invoicing and shipping will be managed through the Environmental Protection Office of Oil & Gas located in Charleston, WV, with the procurement being conducted through an Agency Purchase Order process.
