Morgantown Utility Board

Morgantown Utility Board, doing business as M U B, is a U.S. local government municipality headquartered in Morgantown, West Virginia that provides water supply, wastewater treatment, and sewage utility services to federal facilities as a prime contractor operating on full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations. The vendor operates as a registered utility provider since 2002 and competes exclusively as a prime — it has no subcontract footprint — across contract and federal grant programs.

M U B's federal work concentrates in two core capability areas: routine water and wastewater utility delivery under recurring purchase orders to federal facilities, and capital grant-funded water infrastructure projects. On the contract side, M U B furnishes water treatment, distribution, and sewage management services to the Federal Correctional Institution Morgantown (42 awards, $4.3 million combined potential value) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Pittsburgh (13 awards, $1.6 million combined potential value). Representative recent contract work includes a $252 thousand firm fixed price definitive contract with CDC Pittsburgh for water service to NIOSH Morgantown awarded May 1, 2026 (ultimate completion April 30, 2027), a $205 thousand purchase order for water and wastewater utilities to CDC Pittsburgh awarded August 27, 2024, and a $121.5 thousand purchase order for water and sewage utilities to CDC Pittsburgh awarded November 2, 2023. These contracts typically run as quarterly or annual purchase orders structured as firm fixed price agreements. On the grant side, M U B is a recipient of $600 thousand in cooperative-agreement funding from EPA Region 3 under the Brownfields Remediation program (CFDA not specified) for site cleanup in Morgantown, West Virginia (award date October 1, 2022; ultimate completion September 30, 2026), and received a $3.4 million Project Grant from the Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration under the Economic Adjustment Assistance program (award date October 21, 2021) for construction of a water extension to serve industrial manufacturing capacity in the Morgantown Industrial Park.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Bureau of Prisons facility in Morgantown and CDC Pittsburgh, which together account for 70% of awards by count and 88% of combined potential value. M U B also serves the Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory, the Department of Defense Finance and Accounting Service, and other federal agencies. The vendor operates under four named indefinite delivery contracts (GS03P05QN1010, DJBMRG040009, DJBMRG040010, FA671205A0023) with a combined three to five task orders each. Activity has declined significantly — three awards in 2021, six in 2022, two in 2023, one in 2024, and one in 2026 — and recompete exposure over the next twenty-four months is minimal, with only two awards ($252 thousand combined potential value) reaching ultimate completion in that window. M U B's award portfolio spans 110 prime awards (contracts and grants combined) valued at $9.5 million in combined potential value, with awarded dollars obligated at $12.6 million across water supply and irrigation systems (56 awards) and sewage treatment facilities (34 awards) under PSC codes for Utilities-Water (80 awards) and Utilities-Other (21 awards).
