NAICS 213113 – Support Activities for Coal Mining encompasses specialized services that enable the extraction, processing, and logistical operations of coal mining without directly engaging in mining itself. This includes site preparation, drilling and blasting support, haul road construction, equipment maintenance and repair, ventilation system servicing, dust control, and reclamation planning. These activities are critical to ensuring operational safety, regulatory compliance, and environmental stewardship in coal extraction zones. While the broader coal industry has seen reduced federal engagement in recent years, this NAICS remains relevant for agencies managing legacy mining sites, federal land reclamation programs, and energy infrastructure decommissioning projects. Contractors in this space must navigate complex environmental regulations under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act and possess expertise in mine closure planning, groundwater monitoring, and soil remediation. No contractor data is available for this NAICS code, indicating limited visibility of prime contractors in government procurement records. The sector likely includes small businesses and niche service providers with specialized environmental engineering or mine reclamation capabilities, rather than large defense or infrastructure primes. No agency data is available, suggesting minimal recent federal award activity. When contracts do occur, they are typically tied to the Department of the Interior’s Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, the U.S. Forest Service, or the Army Corps of Engineers for remediation on federal lands or former coal leases. The competitive landscape is sparse, with low opportunity density and infrequent procurement events. Contractors with proven experience in federal mine closure projects, hazardous material handling, and environmental compliance documentation are best positioned to compete when opportunities arise. Long-term trends point toward declining demand, but niche contracts for legacy site remediation and tribal land restoration may persist as targeted, non-recurring procurements.

Small Business Size Standard

The SBA threshold that decides who can bid NAICS 213113 work as a small business.

$27.5M
Applies to the whole industry code

The SBA cap for this NAICS (13 CFR 121.201). A business at or under it can self-certify as small for work in this code, which is what makes it eligible for a small-business set-aside. The cap is set per NAICS, so the same company can be small in one code and not in another.

13 CFR 121.201, effective January 1, 2026. The SBA revises the table roughly once a year.

Bidder counts reported on past federal awards in this NAICS (USAspending). An open opportunity has no bidders yet, so this is the historical norm for similar work, not a fact about this solicitation. Not all awards report bidder counts, and fewer bidders often means incumbent-held work rather than an easier win. Federal reporting of bidder counts fell from ~96% of awards (FY2016) to ~30% (FY2018 onward); the chart shows shares of reported awards, and washed-out stretches mark years with fewer than 30 of them.
