FY26-DOEE-WQD- Analysis/Identification of Biological Samples

The District of Columbia’s Energy and Environment Agency is forecasting a contract for the taxonomic identification of macroinvertebrate samples in support of water quality monitoring efforts. This effort is scheduled for fiscal year 2026 and will involve the detailed classification and analysis of biological specimens collected from local waterways to assess ecological health and compliance with environmental standards. The work requires specialized expertise in aquatic biology and taxonomic precision to accurately identify species that serve as indicators of water quality and ecosystem condition. Performance will be conducted within the District of Columbia, though specific location details are not provided. The solicitation is currently in forecast status, indicating it is an advanced notice for potential vendors to prepare proposals. There is no set-aside designation, NAICS code, or point of contact listed at this time, and the official procurement will likely follow with a formal solicitation.
