Additional Details
The State of Washington, through its Department of Enterprise Services (DES), has established a comprehensive statewide contract (Contract No. 06419) for Encampment Cleanup Services. This contract is designed to address the cleanup and environmental mitigation of homeless encampments on public properties after they have been vacated or cleared of human habitation. The primary objective is to ensure that these sites are remediated in a manner that is safe, environmentally responsible, and compliant with all relevant regulations, thereby protecting public health and restoring public spaces.
Scope and Service Categories:
The contract is structured to serve three distinct regions within Washington State—Western, Central, and Eastern—through multiple awarded contractors. Services are divided into two categories based on the size and complexity of the cleanup:
- **Category 1: High- and Medium-High-Complexity Cleanups**
This category encompasses large sites (1.5 acres or greater) that may require the use of heavy equipment and specialized expertise. Contractors must be capable of navigating steep slopes, safely removing significant quantities of medical, chemical, biological, and/or solid waste, and addressing the risks associated with bloodborne pathogens. Documentation of certifications in steep slope fall protection, hazardous waste handling and disposal, and bloodborne pathogen safety is mandatory.
- **Category 2: Moderate- and Low-Complexity Cleanups**
This category covers smaller sites (less than 1.5 acres) with flat or moderately flat topography, where heavy equipment is not required. Contractors in this category must provide documentation of certifications in hazardous waste handling/disposal and bloodborne pathogen safety.
Purchasers retain the discretion to classify sites based on specific conditions, such as topography and equipment needs, regardless of acreage.
Key Requirements and Deliverables:
Contractors are expected to deliver comprehensive site cleanup services, including the removal and proper disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, mitigation of environmental hazards, and restoration of public property. All work must adhere to stringent safety and environmental standards, with required certifications as outlined in Contract Section 4.4. The contract also encourages participation from small, minority-owned, women-owned, and veteran-owned businesses, with several reserved awards specifically for these groups. However, it is important to note that some reserved award contractors may not be eligible for projects utilizing federal funds.
Contracting Entity and Contact Information:
The contract is administered by the Washington State Department of Enterprise Services (DES), ensuring compliance with RCW 39.26 and current state procurement policies. Contractors and purchasers are directed to reference Contract No. 06419 on all purchase orders and to consult the DES contract administrator for any questions.
