Test Pit and Soil Boring Advancement Phase II Environmental Site Assessment Royal Electric Yard, Sykesville, Maryland
Solicitation # 6913G626Q300046
Under an interagency agreement between the U.S. Department of Transportation’s John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment is being conducted at the Royal Electric Yard, a 4.1-acre parcel located at 7512 Main Street in Sykesville, Maryland, with the goal of investigating potential soil and groundwater contamination from historic automotive junking activities. A prior Phase I ESA identified likely presence of hazardous substances including used oils, brake and hydraulic fluids, gasoline, diesel fuels, mercury switches, asbestos, refrigerants, metals, batteries, and antifreeze, primarily in the northern wooded portion of the site, prompting the need for subsurface investigation. The scope includes advancing up to ten soil borings organized in a sitewide grid and up to six test pits near known debris piles, supported by geophysical surveys using electromagnetic conductivity, ground penetrating radar, and magnetometry to detect buried metallic and non-metallic objects. Sampling and analysis must adhere to ASTM E1903-19 standards, Maryland Department of the Environment residential soil cleanup criteria, and Volpe’s Generic Quality Assurance Project Plan and Standard Operating Procedures, with all samples requiring proper labeling, preservation, and shipping via approved containers, chain-of-custody documentation, and cooling to maintain integrity. The work is to be performed under a firm-fixed-price contract, fully funded at award for CLIN 00100, with a performance period from August 24 to December 1, 2026, and is set aside exclusively for small businesses. Contractors must possess valid certifications to execute the work, be registered in SAM with a current Unique Entity Identifier, and comply with extensive federal regulations including security prohibitions, data safeguarding requirements, service contract labor standards, Buy American provisions, and counter-trafficking policies. Proposal submission is required via email by August 11, 2026, and must include a completed SF-1449, a detailed firm-fixed-price breakdown covering labor, equipment, lab analysis, permits, and survey costs, and a two-page technical narrative demonstrating understanding of the work plan, site conditions, sampling methodology, and operational efficiencies. Deliverables include draft and final work plans, a call-before-you-dig notification, a geophysical survey report, and a final Phase II ESA report with analytical data, findings, and recommendations. All soil and debris deemed grossly contaminated must be segregated into metal drums or equivalent containers for offsite disposal
