NRC Environmental Services Inc.

NRC Environmental Services Inc., a subsidiary of environmental services company US Ecology, Inc., provides hazardous waste treatment, disposal, environmental remediation, and oil spill response services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (97% of recent awards), competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations. The Portland, Oregon-based firm operates primarily through task orders against federal IDIQs and environmental remediation vehicles.

NRC Environmental's customer base concentrates heavily on interior and defense agencies in the Pacific Northwest. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Oregon-Washington dominates by both award count and dollar volume, accounting for 77 awards worth $2.4 million combined potential value (56% of total portfolio dollars across the coverage set). The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Portland follows with 15 awards worth $846 thousand, while the same Corps of Engineers parent agency carries an additional 12 awards worth $36 thousand. The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Department of the Interior Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement round out the active set. These five customer entities account for 79% of combined potential value across all awards.

NRC Environmental operates task orders under three principal IDIQs: indefinite delivery contract HAC033Q00 (79 task orders, $410 thousand combined potential value), indefinite delivery contract INL08PC90225 (62 task orders, $834 thousand combined potential value), and indefinite delivery contract INL13PC00139 (24 task orders, $595 thousand combined potential value). The vendor also holds positions on the EPA Remedial Acquisition Framework for Design and Engineering Services and the Architect-Engineer, Hazardous, Toxic, and Radioactive Waste and Environmental Services vehicle, each carrying four task orders. Representative prime work includes pump-off and disposal services for slops at Army Corps of Engineers locations (multiple purchase orders under $6,200 in 2021 and 2022). Capability focus centers on hazardous waste treatment and disposal (138 awards), remediation services (93 awards), and oil spill response (47 awards under PSC Environmental Systems Protection—Oil Spill Response). Recent subcontract activity places NRC Environmental as a field investigator on the Portland Harbor Superfund Site remedial design effort under CDM Federal Programs Corporation (three sub-awards in 2023, 2025) and as a waste-collection specialist on the Bradford Island National Priorities List site under Jacobs Government Services Company (four sub-awards from 2024 through 2026). Portfolio activity has remained minimal in recent years—one to three awards annually from 2023 through 2026—with $4.3 million in combined potential value and $3.9 million obligated across 261 total awards spanning back to 2002.
