Cathodic Protection Replacement and Installation

The San Diego County Water Authority is forecasting the replacement and installation of cathodic protection systems along its existing aqueduct infrastructure within its service area in California. The work involves minor trenching and boring to install or replace anode rods, connecting wires, and receivers adjacent to active pipelines, all confined strictly to the Water Authority’s existing right-of-way. All disturbed areas must be restored to their preimpact condition following completion. The project is categorized as routine maintenance and qualifies for categorical exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act, specifically Sections 8.00.060(a)1(i), 8.00.060(a)2(i), and 8.00.060(a)4(vi), which authorize such minor alterations without extensive environmental review. No contract value, pricing structure, or detailed cost estimates are provided, and the solicitation is currently listed as a forecast with no solicitation number assigned. The period of performance, delivery schedule, and FOB terms are not specified. The work will be performed by a contractor to be selected, though no formal evaluation factors, award methodology, or contract type such as FFP or IDIQ are stated. The primary point of contact is Maya Mazon, Senior Water Resources Specialist, who can be reached via email or phone for project-related inquiries. No attachments, packaging requirements, inspection criteria beyond CEQA compliance, or special contract clauses such as those related to security, key personnel, or organizational conflict of interest are identified. Payment details, accounting codes, invoicing methods, and designated contracting officials including COR or COTR are not formally outlined, though the agency’s administrative address is provided as 4677 Overland Avenue, San Diego, CA 92123-1233. The project is anticipated to proceed under the agency’s internal protocols and environmental exemption status, with no federal acquisition regulation clauses or socioeconomic requirements specified in the available documentation.
