Recycled Water System Project

The Mendocino Unified School District is advancing an expansion of its Recycled Water System Project within existing public rights-of-way in Mendocino County, California, consisting of less than one mile of new recycled water mains, small irrigation services featuring spray and drip systems, and repairs to preexisting district irrigation infrastructure. This expansion is consistent in scope, purpose, and service area with a previously approved project documented under a Mitigated Negative Declaration under the California Environmental Quality Act, ensuring environmental compliance without requiring a full environmental impact report. Work will be conducted at locations tied to district facilities, primarily centered at 10500 Kelly St., Mendocino, CA, with all activities confined to publicly accessible areas and existing utility corridors. There is no publicly disclosed contract value, pricing structure, or detailed delivery schedule, and the action is classified as a forecast, suggesting it remains in a planning or budgeting phase prior to formal procurement. Contract administration responsibilities are held by the district, with Jason Morse, Superintendent, and Ryan Rhoades, District Superintendent, identified as the primary points of contact for inquiries. No federal acquisition regulations or contract clauses are referenced, as the project operates entirely under state-level environmental statutes, specifically the Public Resources Code and CEQA requirements. There is no formal identification of a contracting vehicle, evaluation criteria, payment office details, invoicing mechanism, or procurement methodology such as LPTA or trade-off. Similarly, no specifications for packaging, inspection criteria beyond environmental compliance, quality standards, representational certifications, or socioeconomic requirements are included. The project lacks a defined period of performance, delivery terms, or submission deadlines, and while documentation references a Notice of Determination dated July 2, 2026, and a posting date of July 15, 2026, no formal contract execution details or award structure are provided. All activities are anticipated to proceed under state authority with oversight from district officials and local environmental agencies rather than through a federally regulated acquisition framework.
