Large Meter Replacement - 3-inch and Larger

The Las Virgenes Municipal Water District is forecasting the replacement of large water meters measuring 3 inches and larger to enhance operational efficiency and modernize its existing infrastructure. This project is classified as maintenance of existing facilities under California Environmental Quality Act Section 15301(b), qualifying for a categorical exemption, and will be conducted within the District’s service area in Los Angeles County, California. The primary objective is to update aging metering equipment to improve measurement accuracy and system reliability without expanding service capacity or altering existing infrastructure use. The Water Systems Manager and Engineer, Alex Leu, serves as the primary point of contact for the project, with correspondence directed to the District’s administrative office in Calabasas. No formal solicitation number, contract value, pricing details, or payment terms have been disclosed, and the documents do not specify a deadline for proposal submission or an official procurement timeline. The project does not include detailed technical specifications for meter standards, packaging and marking requirements, inspection protocols, or quality control criteria beyond the general context of routine utility maintenance. There is no indication of federal acquisition regulation clauses, evaluation factors for award, solicitation instructions, or required offeror certifications such as UEI, small business status, or socioeconomic designations. The District is acting as both the procuring entity and the implementing agency, with no contractual responsibilities delegated to external contractors identified at this stage.
