City-initiated 1.6 million gallon water tank project (Project)

The City of Loma Linda is undertaking a water infrastructure project to construct a 1.6 million-gallon welded steel storage tank, along with associated piping and a construction road, to be located on Richardson Street in Loma Linda, California. The project has been reviewed under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), resulting in a Negative Declaration, confirming that no significant environmental impacts are anticipated. The lead agency for the project is the City of Loma Linda, with oversight from the State Water Resources Control Board, which serves as the responsible agency. Contact for the project includes Lorena Matarrita, Community Development Director for the city, and Daniel White, Water Resource Control Engineer from the State Water Board, with additional coordination involving Wei H. Chang of the State Water Resources Control Board. While the scope clearly defines the deliverables—the tank, piping, and access road—no detailed technical specifications, engineering standards, or construction quality criteria have been provided in the available documentation. There is no identified contract value, pricing data, or cost estimates, and no standard contract type such as Firm Fixed Price or Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity has been specified, as the posting is classified as a forecast. The period of performance, delivery schedule, and submission deadlines are not established in the materials, and no formal solicitation number or amendment history is available. The project does not include any referenced Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, evaluation factors for award, special requirements, or mandatory representations and certifications from offerors. Payment instructions, invoicing methods, accounting codes, contracting officer designations, and inspection protocols beyond environmental compliance are also not detailed. The place of performance is confirmed as Loma Linda, California, but all administrative, financial, and technical details necessary for formal contracting remain incomplete or absent, suggesting the project is still in a pre-solicitation planning phase.
