F--AK ARCTIC NWR BIG RAM LAKE Soil & Hazardous Materi

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is seeking soil and hazardous material evaluation services at Big Ram Lake in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (NWR). The work involves investigating a suspected aviation gasoline (AVGAS) spill and conducting hazardous material assessments for asbestos, lead-based paint, and PCBs in three buildings scheduled for demolition. This project is a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS 562910. The resulting firm-fixed-price contract will run from June 22, 2026, through December 31, 2026.

Proposals will be evaluated using a Best Value Tradeoff process, where price is the primary factor following a pass/fail technical review of remote-site logistics and regulatory qualifications. Amendment 0001 extended the RFI and quote deadlines and clarified the performance period. Submissions are due by June 14, 2026, and must follow a specific three-PDF email format.
