C5613335-D - Brine Line Inspection, Video Recording, and Cleaning Services

The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is soliciting services for the inspection, video recording, and cleaning of approximately 2.4 miles of brine discharge piping at the California Institution for Men in Chino, California. The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, travel, per diem, equipment, materials, transportation, insurance, permits, and other expenses necessary to complete the work, which includes video inspection of the pipeline interior, cleaning to restore operational integrity, and up to eight excavations for access, with backfilling using native material and mechanical compaction via a jumping jack compactor. Work is scheduled to begin no earlier than July 1, 2026, and the contract term extends through June 30, 2029, with performance occurring at the facility located at 14901 South Central Avenue, Chino, though the solicitation lists San Bernardino as the administrative place of performance. Bidders must submit a completed Exhibit B-1 Rate Sheet as part of their bid; failure to include it will result in automatic rejection, and all submissions must be made electronically through the California State Contract Register portal by the deadline of June 2, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. A mandatory bidder’s walk-through was held on May 14, 2026, and only Exhibit A-2, the pipeline map, is provided as a reference drawing. The solicitation, issued under NAICS code 237120 as an Invitation for Bid, does not require federal contracting representations such as UEI/CAGE codes, small business certifications, or prevailing wage compliance, indicating a state-level procurement with streamlined requirements. Bid eligibility is contingent on not being listed as a top tax delinquent under California law, which automatically voids any award to such entities. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, or payment or accounting codes are specified in the available materials, and no COR, COTR, or PCO is formally designated; communication is directed through Breanne Valdez, the primary point of contact. The contract structure appears to be fixed-price based on bid submissions, with no stated ceiling, estimated value, or line-item pricing details available prior to award. All deliverables, including video recordings and inspection reports, must be submitted in accordance with the project’s operational history, which suggests that local practice, rather than formal standards, governs technical expectations. The absence of detailed packaging, marking, invoicing, or acceptance criteria reinforces
