How to respond to EPA’s Superfund Remediation Framework RFI
What EPA is asking industry to review
The Environmental Protection Agency is seeking feedback on draft requirements for the next generation of its Superfund Remedial Acquisition Framework contracts. Topics include geographic zones, pricing, rapid-response work, permits, and data validation.
This is a request for information, not a formal bid. EPA may use responses to refine future requirements, but it is not required to adopt suggested changes. Responding is voluntary, and not responding does not prevent a firm from participating in a future solicitation.
Deadline and what happens when it closes
Responses are due November 2, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The notice says only submissions made through FedConnect by the closing time are permitted; email, phone calls, and other submission methods are not authorized.
EPA says it will not post responses publicly. The draft materials are preliminary and may change before formal solicitations are released.
Who this opportunity may suit
This RFI may suit environmental remediation contractors and other firms with relevant experience in Superfund remedial work. The listed principal NAICS code is 562910, and the primary service code is F108.
Firms can provide input on geographic coverage, competition, pricing, performance-based requirements, and other topics identified in the RFI. The notice also invites comments on the draft performance work statements.
How to prepare and submit a response
Use the opportunity portal’s “View original source” option to open the notice. If the first click takes you to the portal homepage, click the option again to reach the opportunity. A free account may be needed to view documents, though it is not always required.
Submit the response through FedConnect by the deadline. Use Track Changes in the relevant suite performance work statement and use the attached template for responses. Keep the template’s font, margins, topic order, and numbering unchanged, and cite the exact suite PWS section when relevant. Do not send a response by email or phone.
Practical tips for useful industry feedback
Answer only the topics identified in this RFI. Make comments specific and actionable: point to the relevant PWS task or subtask, explain the issue, and suggest a clear revision or alternative.
For questions about zones, staffing, pricing, or task-order competition, describe how the proposed structure would affect your firm and why. Review the response for completeness and formatting, and allow time to submit through FedConnect before the deadline.
