Emma Wood Sewer Leak Repair

The Emma Wood Sewer Leak Repair project involves replacing a failed section of sewer line at Emma Wood State Beach in Ventura County, California, with a new permanent sewer line of the same location, purpose, and capacity. This is a local infrastructure initiative managed by Ventura County Service Area No. 29, with no formal federal solicitation or contract vehicle identified. The project qualifies for a categorical exemption under California’s Environmental Quality Act (CEQA Class 1(b), Section 15301) as a ministerial action involving the replacement of existing public facilities with no significant environmental impact, eliminating the need for extensive environmental reviews. The only financial detail referenced is a $50.00 environmental filing fee paid to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, which is not part of the work’s contract value. The contract type is listed as a forecast, with no specified pricing, line items, or estimated cost, indicating a simplified, non-competitive procurement likely handled through local administrative procedures. There are no federal acquisition regulation clauses, representations, certifications, or standard contract sections such as evaluation factors, payment terms, invoicing systems, or contracting officer details present in the documentation. The lead contact is Terry Hanser, Engineering Manager, reachable via email and phone, with additional administrative contacts including Paul Chan and Gregg Strakaluse. The project has been approved since December 31, 2025, and publicly posted on January 22, 2026, but no deadlines, performance period dates, FOB terms, packaging requirements, inspection criteria, or contract delivery schedules are defined. Submission of proposals or responses is handled through direct contact with Ventura County at their Moorpark office, with no electronic portal or standardized format required. All documentation reflects a routine, locally administered repair with minimal regulatory complexity, relying on state-level compliance rather than federal procurement rules, and no socioeconomic or small business set-asides are indicated.
