EPA Announces Phased Closeout of Long-Expired Contracts

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plans to administratively close certain expired contracts through a phased process. - EPA will identify contracts in an attached list that expired six or more years ago and proceed with unilateral administrative closeout. - Parties who believe there is a valid reason not to close a listed contract should contact the notice’s point of contact. - EPA expects to publish additional contract lists periodically. - The notice does not identify specific vendors, contract numbers, products, services, or new procurement requirements.

Description

This notice serves as an advance notification to contractors identified in the attached contract list regarding the agency’s intent to proceed with a phased approach to administratively close identified contracts that expired six or more years ago starting from November 3, 2026.  Unilateral contract closeout actions will begin 15 days following the publication of this notice. Contractors who believe that there is a valid reason the agency should not proceed with close-out must contact the point of contact identified in this notice within 15 days of publication of this notice.  

As part of the agency’s contract closeout initiative, additional contract listings will be published approximately every two weeks as we continue our phased administrative closeout process. Contractors are encouraged to monitor future special notices to determine whether any of their contracts have been identified for administrative closeout.
