Regulated Medical Waste Disposal and Incineration Services   2

Background
The United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) is seeking services for the disposal and incineration of Regulated Medical Waste (RMW).

USAMRIID has a mission to protect military personnel from biological threats and to prepare for public health emergencies.

The contract aims to ensure safe and compliant disposal of various classes of RMW.

- Pickup, transportation, disposal, and incineration of RMW categorized into groups such as cultures, pathological waste, blood products, sharps, animal waste, and isolation wastes.
