Authorization to Remove and Dispose of Abandoned Vessels – W27250

The California State Lands Commission is authorizing the Executive Officer or designee to direct on-call contractors to remove and dispose of abandoned vessels and their contents from sovereign lands in the Sacramento River near Walnut Grove, California, effective on or after September 22, 2025. This action is facilitated under a categorical exemption under California regulations, specifically Class 4 for minor alterations to land and Class 30 for actions to prevent hazardous waste release, eliminating the need for a full environmental review under CEQA. The contract, identified as W27250, is structured as an on-call service arrangement with no fixed timeline, allowing for task orders to be issued as needed rather than under a predetermined schedule. Performance is limited to the specified location in Sacramento County, and acceptance of the work is the responsibility of the Commission, with inspection expected at both the removal site and disposal location. The solicitation does not include pricing details, contract value estimates, or financial terms, nor does it specify payment methods, invoicing systems, or accounting codes such as AAC, TAS, or ACRN. There are no defined delivery terms, packaging or labeling standards, or requirements for key personnel, security clearances, or organizational conflict of interest disclosures. The commission has not identified a formal contracting officer, COR, or COTR, and no evaluation factors, award criteria, or socioeconomic set-asides are outlined. All submissions must be received by September 22, 2025, with correspondence directed to Christine Day, Senior Environmental Scientist, via phone or email. The document functions primarily as an environmental exemption notice and administrative authorization rather than a comprehensive procurement solicitation, relying on pre-qualified contractors for execution and placing full discretion for task initiation on the Commission’s Executive Officer.
