What does Marine Resources Commission do?

The Marine Resources Commission of Virginia is dedicated to the stewardship and management of aquatic environments and marine resources. Its core mission focuses on habitat restoration, fisheries management, and maritime law enforcement. Strategic priorities include the creation and maintenance of artificial reefs, the implementation of shell dredging and planting initiatives to restore the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries, and the regulation of fisheries through the procurement of tagging systems for species such as striped bass. Procurement patterns emphasize a heavy reliance on maritime technical services and environmental maintenance. The agency frequently solicits contracts for ship building and repair, vessel preparation, and the application of specialized anti-fouling coatings for its police fleet. Additionally, there is a consistent need for temporary staffing, administrative management consulting, and environmental consulting services to support its regulatory and operational mandates. The agency primarily targets vendors within the ship building, boat building, and environmental consulting NAICS categories, as well as specialty trade contractors for submerged placement and reef deployment. There is a demonstrated preference for Small Business and Micro Business set-asides, indicating a commitment to diversifying its vendor base through targeted award priorities for smaller enterprises. Operating under the government of Virginia and based in Tabb, the agency manages a wide geographic scope covering the state's coastal waters and tributaries. Its procurement structure utilizes a mix of formal requests for proposals for large-scale maritime projects and subcontracts for specialized tasks such as hazardous material abatement and barge services.
