Environmental Monitoring Services

San Diego State University (SDSU), a prominent public research institution and Hispanic-serving entity, is inviting proposals for Environmental Monitoring Services to enhance regulatory compliance while benefiting its student body of over 37,000. Managed by the Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) division, this contract seeks competent firms to conduct both stormwater and sewer sampling. The core responsibilities comprise stormwater sampling during both wet and dry weather, at various campus locations and the nearby Mission Valley site, focusing on numerous environmental parameters. In addition, the contractor will engage in detecting dry weather flows within the campus storm drain system and managing data to create annual reports. Sewer sampling will be performed twice yearly at SDSU's main campus to analyze Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and total suspended solids (TSS). The project requires the contractor to be located near the campus, equipped with trained personnel for weekend and after-hours deployment, and to have an affiliation with an ELAP-accredited laboratory. The contract's intended term begins in February 2025 for an initial two-year period, with three optional one-year extensions. Services will be executed at SDSU's main and Mission Valley campuses. The contract is categorized under NAICS code 621330 and PSC code F999, with estimated project costs ranging from $50,000 to $200,000. Interested parties are to contact Susan Romero at the university, with proposals due by January 31, 2025.
