NOI Permit Rework 116-W

Tidelands Oil Production Co. is authorized to rework waterflood injection well 116-W (API 0403723633) located on Pier C of the Port of Long Beach within the Wilmington Oil Field to restore mechanical integrity and resume operations. The work involves setting a temporary bridge plug and cementing a casing sleeve within the existing production casing, with no new construction or expansion of facilities required. All activities are confined to the well’s existing concrete cellar, a fenced and industrialized area with no wildlife or botanical habitat value, ensuring no environmental impact. The project qualifies under Group B of CalGEM’s Rework Exemptions Guidance (December 2023), which permits minor maintenance actions without full environmental review under CEQA categorical exemptions including Class 1, 2, 4, 7, and 8. The rework is expected to be completed within a 10-day window, with regulatory oversight and final approval vested in the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM), under Permit #7052483. This action is a ministerial permitting decision under state law and not a traditional federal procurement contract; therefore, no Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses, pricing data, invoice instructions, delivery terms, or contractor representations such as UEI, CAGE codes, or socioeconomic certifications are applicable or included. There are no contract administration details such as COR, COTR, or PCO designations, no payment or accounting information, and no packaging, marking, or inspection requirements beyond compliance with CalGEM’s exemption criteria. The sole deliverable is the restoration of the well’s integrity to enable waterflood injection, with acceptance determined by CalGEM based on regulatory conformity and on-site compliance. Stakeholders include Tidelands, CalGEM, the City of Long Beach, and the Port of Long Beach, but no formal solicitation, evaluation factors, or offeror submission instructions are present. The project is documented through the State Clearinghouse portal and has no binding contractual obligations beyond the permit authorization and adherence to California environmental regulations.
