Excavate and Repair Potable Water Valve– Harbor Development Permit No. 25-057

The Port of Long Beach is undertaking an emergency repair to replace a leaking 20-inch potable water valve located at Pier D Ave in Harbor Planning District 5, Middle Harbor, Long Beach, California. The work requires excavating two 8-foot by 6-foot pits to isolate the faulty valve and install a replacement with substantially the same purpose and capacity, ensuring uninterrupted service to the municipal water system. This project is being executed under CEQA categorical exemptions Class 15302 for replacement and reconstruction and Section 15269(b)(c) as an emergency project, which allows for expedited implementation without a full environmental impact review. The project is not subject to a competitive solicitation process, no contract value or pricing details are available, and no formal evaluation factors, award criteria, or solicitation numbers have been established. There is no indication of federal acquisition regulation applicability, as this is a state and locally administered infrastructure action under California environmental law. Contract administration is overseen by the Port of Long Beach’s Environmental Planning Division, with Tyler Hanks serving as the primary point of contact and Carolina Avendano as the project coordinator. Inspection and acceptance will occur on-site in Long Beach, with government authorities responsible for verifying compliance with environmental standards and regulatory exemptions. No packaging, marking, invoicing, payment, or accounting details are provided, and no representations, certifications, or socioeconomic status information from potential contractors are included. The project lacks standard contracting elements such as delivery schedules, FOB terms, special requirements, or submission instructions, as it operates under emergency authority rather than a formal procurement framework. Execution is anticipated to proceed swiftly following the November 2025 environmental notice and posting, with no competitive bid process involved.
