Design and Construction of Raceway Basin Pump Station and Buena Creek Pump Station Improvements and FOG Abatements

The City of Vista and Buena Sanitation District are seeking proposals from qualified design-build entities to undertake four interconnected projects focused on pump station improvements and FOG (Fats, Oils, and Grease) abatement. The scope includes designing and constructing the Raceway Basin Pump Station FOG Abatement, Buena Creek Pump Station FOG Abatement, Raceway Basin Pump Station Overflow Basin Improvements, and Buena Creek Pump Station Mechanical Valve Modification. The selected design-builder will be responsible for providing comprehensive engineering design, construction, environmental compliance, and project management services, utilizing existing data, previous studies, and field investigations to inform their work. All team members involved in the project must be licensed or registered in California, ensuring professional standards are maintained throughout the project lifecycle. The contract, with an estimated value between five and fifteen million dollars, emphasizes a collaborative approach where the design-build team must deliver a signed, stamped design as the engineer of record. The project is scheduled for solicitation posting on January 16, 2025, with a response deadline of March 20, 2025. Interested firms can contact Erin Adams via email or phone for further details and access project information through the provided procurement portal. The initiative aims to enhance infrastructure resilience and environmental compliance at key pump stations within California, supporting the City’s and District’s operational and environmental objectives.
