Hurkey Creek Park Emergency Power Line Replacement Project

The Hurkey Creek Park Emergency Power Line Replacement Project is an urgent infrastructure repair initiated by Riverside County Regional Park and Open-Space District to restore electrical service to existing park facilities following the failure of an underground power line. Conducted under emergency provisions, the project qualifies for exemption from full environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15269 and 15301, which authorize immediate action for repairs that pose risks to public health and safety without expanding existing utility use. All work is performed on-site at 6375 CA-74, Mountain Center, California, with inspection and acceptance occurring at the location of the repair. The project is not subject to federal procurement regulations, as no Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, solicitation numbers, or competitive bidding processes were involved. Instead, it was internally managed by the agency with no formal contract vehicle, pricing details, or award criteria disclosed. The only documentation submitted includes a certified exemption finding and a Notice of Exemption, both required to validate environmental compliance under state law. There are no specified contract types, delivery schedules, FOB terms, invoicing methods, payment offices, or technical specifications beyond the implicit requirement to restore service using standard utility repair practices. The primary point of contact for the project is Gaby Adame, Bureau Chief, reachable via phone or email, serving as the lead agency representative without a formal designation as a contracting officer or technical representative. No socioeconomic certifications, entity identifiers, or contractor representations were required or submitted, as the project was executed directly by the agency under its emergency authority without external contractors or competitive solicitation.
