USCGC SPAR CPP Leak UPDD FY26

The United States Coast Guard is preparing for an unplanned dry dock maintenance availability for the USCGC SPAR, a 225-foot buoy tender homeported in Duluth, Minnesota, within the Great Lakes Coast Guard District. The primary scope of work involves addressing a critical hydraulic fluid leak caused by a cracked weld at the outlet of the supply filter flange. The maintenance plan includes removing a section of the affected piping and performing a reweld to restore integrity and prevent further leakage. This maintenance is essential to ensure the vessel’s operational readiness and safety during its missions in the Great Lakes region. The contract is forecasted under NAICS code 336611, indicating it pertains to shipbuilding and repairing activities. Although no solicitation number is listed and the posted date appears as a default placeholder, the opportunity is active through the Department of Homeland Security’s United States Coast Guard. Direct contact for inquiries is provided through Christian Lynch and Chase Randall, with Ramona Hatfield designated as the Small Business Specialist for support and coordination. The place of performance and office address details remain unspecified, but the work is anticipated to occur at a designated dry dock facility during the fiscal year 2026 timeframe.
