CANAL & STORM WATER CONVEYANCE SYSTEM CLEAN-UP

The 842nd CONF/LGC contracting office at Homestead Air Reserve Base in Florida is seeking sources for a comprehensive clean-up of a canal and storm water conveyance system spanning approximately 80,000 linear feet. The project scope includes removal of debris from canals, clearing overgrown vegetation from canal bottoms and side slopes, cleaning out all canal culverts to prevent flow obstruction, removal of abandoned dumpsters and trash, and cleaning storm water structures to improve water flow and manage water levels after rain events. This acquisition is fully set aside for HUBZone-certified businesses, meaning only those registered and active in the Central Contractor Registration and not excluded by the government are eligible to submit interest. The solicitation number for this sources sought notice is FA6648-09-STORM, posted on June 10, 2009, targeting NAICS code 237990. A detailed Statement of Work is available, but the previously scheduled site visit on June 12, 2009, was cancelled indefinitely, and interested parties are advised to monitor the associated federal business opportunities website for updates. The place of performance is Homestead, Florida, and points of contact for this effort include Contract Specialist Patricia Biederman and Contracting Officer Henry G Burgains. The project emphasizes environmental cleanup and maintenance to ensure efficient storm water management in the canal system at the base.
