Count Station #2 - South

The project involves upgrading and rehabilitating ten census stations located across Kern and Inyo Counties in California, along State Routes 58, 202, 127, 190, and US 395, under the oversight of Caltrans District 9 – Bishop. The initiative aims to enhance traffic data collection infrastructure with minimal environmental impact, as the project has been granted a categorical exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically referencing Public Resources Code Sections 21080(b)(1), 21083, 21110, 21108, 21152, and 21152.1, eliminating the need for a full environmental impact review. The procurement is classified as a forecast with no solicitation number, formal contract type, or published contract value, indicating it is in a pre-solicitation planning phase. Performance will occur at the specified highway locations, with acceptance ultimately occurring through Caltrans, though no detailed inspection criteria, delivery schedules, or FOB terms are outlined. While the primary point of contact is Rebeka Riesen, Environmental Scientist, and Denise Alcala serves as the signing official, no Contracting Officer, COR, COTR, or PCO roles are formally designated, and there are no specified payment offices, invoicing systems, accounting codes, or remittance instructions. No federal contract clauses (FAR), packaging and marking requirements, evaluation factors, source selection methodology, representations or certifications, special requirements, or financial details such as pricing, CLINs, or total estimated value are included in the documentation, reflecting a state-level environmental exemption process rather than a standard federal procurement framework. Submissions for administrative compliance must be directed to the Office of Planning and Research in Sacramento, with digital filings accepted but no formal deadlines, page limits, or file type standards explicitly stated.
