Bloomfield Pumping Plant Force Main Upgrades

The Bloomfield Pumping Plant Force Main Upgrades project entails the construction of a new 24-inch diameter HDPE force main to replace the existing 15-inch diameter Joint Outfall F Unit 7C Force Main No. 1, which will be abandoned in place upon completion. The existing Force Main No. 2 will be maintained as the redundant system to ensure operational continuity. The scope includes full replacement of all yard piping and appurtenances downstream of the pump discharge header wall spool, installation of automated valve actuators and a flow meter for enhanced system control, and various exterior improvements to the plant grounds. The project is located along a 2,875-foot alignment extending from 166th Street through Norwalk Boulevard to Breaker Manhole F178 at Alondra Boulevard within the cities of Norwalk and Cerritos, California. Environmental compliance is addressed through categorical and statutory exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act, specifically Sections 15302 and 21080.21, which permit the replacement and emergency mitigation of the existing infrastructure without full environmental review. The Los Angeles County Sanitation District is the responsible public agency overseeing the project, with Marvin Holmes serving as the primary point of contact for engineering inquiries. No federal acquisition regulation clauses, contract values, payment details, evaluation factors, or subcontracting requirements are specified in the documentation, indicating this is a public agency-led infrastructure project governed by state environmental and procurement procedures rather than federal contracting standards. The project does not include identified contract types, delivery schedules, invoicing protocols, or designated contracting officers, and there is no indication of competitive solicitation or offeror requirements beyond the posted environmental notice.
