Jurupa Valley Animal Services Shelter Cooling Tower Restoration Project

The Jurupa Valley Animal Services Shelter Cooling Tower Restoration Project, identified by solicitation number FM08420014301, involves the mechanical overhaul of the existing cooling tower at the Western Riverside County Animal Shelter located at 6851 Van Buren Blvd. in Riverside, California. The scope of work focuses on extending the useful life of the equipment through the replacement of VersaCross Fill Media, shafts, bearings, sheaves with bushings, vibration switches, motors, spray nozzles, and v-belts, as well as performing adjustments to the motor rods. This project is managed by Riverside County Facilities Management and is designed to ensure the continued delivery of public animal services, including adoptions and vaccinations, without expanding the existing use of the facility. The project is categorized as a forecast with a posted date of July 31, 2025, and falls under NAICS code 238220. It has been determined to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Sections 15301 and 15061(b)(3), as the work consists of routine repair and maintenance that will not result in significant direct or indirect physical environmental impacts. Mike Sullivan, the Senior Environmental Planner and Facilities Operations Manager, serves as the primary point of contact. No specific contract value, performance duration, or formal evaluation criteria were provided in the available documentation.
