Multi-year Rental of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV)
Solicitation # RNCan-5000095073
Natural Resources Canada is seeking to lease a deep-water autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) system, specifically a HUGIN 1000 or equivalent, for up to five years with an initial term ending March 31, 2027 and four potential one-year renewal options. The system must be capable of operating at depths of at least 2,000 meters and include containerized support infrastructure, mission planning software, technical documentation, and remote support to enable seafloor mapping, marine geoscience, oceanographic research, and Arctic collaboration activities. The requirement includes maintaining the AUV in operational readiness, providing insurance coverage for the asset and its container, and confirming availability at the start of each lease year. While Université Laval / Amundsen Science is the pre-identified supplier due to its unique capability to meet all mandatory technical criteria—including integrated inertial navigation with Doppler velocity log and acoustic positioning, and scientific sensors such as multibeam echosounder, sidescan sonar, and sub-bottom profiler—other suppliers may still submit a statement of capabilities by August 21, 2026. If a qualified alternative is received, a full competitive evaluation will be triggered. The estimated contract value, including all options, is $800,000 plus GST/HST. The procurement is subject to multiple international trade agreements, and Canada intends to retain ownership of any intellectual property generated. The contract falls under an exception permitting limited tendering as only one supplier is currently capable of fulfilling the technical requirements.

Seabed Mapping, Exploration, and Characterization in the Pacific
Solicitation # DFOP0019432
The U.S. Department of State, through the Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs and its Office of Ocean and Polar Affairs, is soliciting applications for a five-year project to conduct ocean mapping, seabed exploration, and habitat and resource characterization in Pacific Island Countries. The solicitation, identified by DFOP0019432, is open to U.S.-based institutions, companies, or organizations with a valid Unique Entity ID from SAM.gov, and requires applicants to submit a single proposal not exceeding 15 pages along with mandatory forms SF-424, SF-424A, and SF-424B, plus a one-page summary. Required attachments include a one-page CV or resume for key personnel, letters of support from partners, and, if applicable, a current Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement in PDF format. The project period begins September 30, 2026, and concludes March 30, 2031, with work primarily conducted in Pacific Island Countries including the Cook Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and Tonga. Evaluation will prioritize program planning and monitoring and evaluation plans, each worth 15 points, followed by budget (10 points), sustainability (10 points), and fiscal responsibility. Awards will be made through a trade-off process where technical merit outweighs cost, with lower indirect cost rates serving as a tiebreaker. Applicants must comply with 2 CFR Part 200, report using Foreign Assistance Data Review standards, and certify adherence to trafficking in persons requirements if services outside the U.S. exceed $500,000 and affirm compliance with federal anti-discrimination laws if work occurs domestically. Proposals must be submitted electronically via Grants.gov or MyGrants by the deadline of August 14, 2026, with submission requirements mandating 14-point Times New Roman font, single-spacing, and 1-inch margins on standard 8.5 x 11 paper. The estimated funding range is between $95,619 and $349,105, reflecting varying budget scenarios submitted by applicants.

Environment and Protected Areas - Request for Proposal - Electric Conductivity Survey of the Muskeg River
Solicitation # AB-2026-05571
The Muskeg River in northern Alberta’s Athabasca Oil Sands region has seen rising levels of sulphate and other ions, though the origins—whether from natural groundwater discharge, diffuse watershed inputs, or discrete point sources—remain poorly understood. To address this uncertainty, a targeted electric conductivity survey is being solicited to map anomalies along approximately 100 kilometers of the river, with comprehensive coverage of about 200 kilometers when including both banks. The survey aims to identify recurring or persistent conductivity hotspots that signal potential groundwater or porewater influence, helping to distinguish between widespread diffuse inputs and localized point sources of contamination. This spatial analysis will enhance the interpretation of existing fixed-station monitoring data and provide critical context for understanding the movement and origin of elevated ion concentrations in the river. The resulting conductivity maps will directly inform the design of future monitoring programs under the Oil Sands Monitoring Program by pinpointing high-priority areas for surface water and groundwater sampling. By linking surface water quality trends to underlying groundwater plumes potentially connected to oil sands development, the project will strengthen cumulative effects assessments and support adaptive management strategies within the Muskeg River watershed. The survey’s findings are intended to clarify the relative contributions of various stressors, enabling more precise and targeted environmental response measures. Proposals for this work are due by August 28, 2026, and the solicitation is managed by Alberta’s Environment and Protected Areas with primary contact through Prabin Rokaya.

Grant Lake Outlet Valve Replacement Geotechnical Survey (Notification of Lake or Streambed Alteration, No. EPIMS-MOO-66741-R6)The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has authorized the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power to conduct geotechnical surveys at 14 locations near Grant Lake under Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS-MOO-66741-R6, in compliance with Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code. The work involves sonic drilling to a maximum depth of 110 feet across all sites, with three of the borings directly impacting the lake or its shoreline below the high-water mark. Two of these will be conducted from a barge or watercraft within the lake itself, while the third may be performed on the shoreline depending on seasonal water levels. Each borehole is confined to an impact area of no more than two square feet and will be meticulously backfilled using bentonite chips slowly introduced through the 6-inch casing to minimize environmental disturbance. The project requires specialized equipment including a crane, sonic drilling rig, 10-wheel truck, support vehicles, forklift, equipment trailer, and watercraft. The activity is part of preparatory work for the Grant Lake Outlet Valve Replacement project, with geotechnical data collected to inform future infrastructure design. All fieldwork is subject to conditions designed to protect aquatic resources, and operations will be executed to avoid unnecessary disruption to the lakebed and surrounding habitat. The authorization is issued by Region 6 of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and project coordination is managed through designated contacts at both LADWP and CDFW. No public solicitation or set-aside classifications are associated with this agreement, as it is a regulatory authorization for a specific technical survey rather than a procurement. The notification was posted on August 7, 2026, and is accessible through the CEQA Net portal.
