About the company
Channel Watch Marine Services Inc., doing business as Towboatus Ventura, operates as a self-certified small disadvantaged business providing oil spill response labor, equipment, and vessel salvage services to federal agencies as a prime contractor. The Ventura, California-based Subchapter S corporation holds a single-award Basic Ordering Agreement with the Coast Guard (ceiling $3.99 million, completion date September 29, 2029) to provide labor, equipment, and materials to mitigate harmful effects of oil spills or hazardous chemical incidents as directed by the Federal On-Scene Coordinator. Work is performed at port locations in California, including Lompoc.
Channel Watch's customer base is concentrated between two agencies: the Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard (2 awards, $4 million combined potential value) and the Department of the Interior National Park Service Pacific West Region (1 award, $3.5 thousand). The Coast Guard awards include the BOA signed September 30, 2026, and a $8 thousand purchase order issued September 22, 2026, for oil spill mitigation labor and materials with an ultimate completion date of November 21, 2026. The National Park Service awarded a $3.5 thousand firm fixed price purchase order on December 13, 2023, for removal of the sunken vessel S/V Shillelagh from Santa Barbara Island within Channel Islands National Park. No set-asides were applied to any award. Activity is minimal across the recent portfolio: one award in 2023 and two in 2026, with combined potential value of approximately $4 million. One purchase order ($8 thousand) faces completion within the next twenty-four months. Channel Watch has no subcontract footprint in the source data and operates exclusively as a prime contractor.
