S--Notice of Intent LEWI Waste and Recycling

The National Park Service is preparing to award a sole-source contract to RECOLOGY WESTERN OREGON - COAST, INC. for weekly solid waste and recycling collection services at the Lewis and Clark National Historical Park in Clatsop County, Oregon. This action is justified under federal acquisition regulations as the vendor is the sole franchised provider legally authorized to perform these services within the county due to the Solid Waste Franchise Agreement #20255020017 and Oregon State law ORS 459A.085, which establishes exclusive collection rights. The services encompass collection, transportation, storage, treatment, and final disposition of solid waste and recyclables from NPS facilities at the Maintenance Compound, requiring the contractor to supply all labor, equipment, materials, and supervision. The scope explicitly excludes hazardous materials, sewage, industrial wastewater, and biological waste. The contract will include a base year running through July 15, 2026, with four optional one-year extensions that could extend performance until July 14, 2031. The award is contingent upon a documented determination that the pricing is fair and reasonable, supported by an Independent Government Estimate and comparative cost analysis referencing the Clatsop County franchise agreement and market research. The contracting office is located in Port Angeles, Washington, and the solicitation number is 140P8326Q0048, issued under NAICS code 562111. Compliance with federal, state, and local waste management regulations, including Section 1601 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, is required. No formal bid process is being conducted as this is a notice of intent only, not a request for proposals, and no evaluation factors, inspection criteria, or specific contract clauses are listed due to the non-competitive nature of the procurement. The responsible point of contact is Sue Mayo, reachable via email at Suellen_Mayo@ios.doi.gov, and interested parties may provide feedback through July 10, 2026, including their SAM Unique Entity ID.
