Riverside County Fire Department Perris Administration Facility Natural Gas Generator and Automatic Transfer Switch

The Riverside County Fire Department is undertaking an emergency power upgrade at its Perris Administration Facility located at 403 E. 4th Street, Perris, California, to ensure continuous operation during power outages. The project involves the installation of a 225kVA/180kW natural gas generator with an outdoor sound-attenuated enclosure and a 1200A automatic transfer switch, along with associated electrical modifications including conduits, wiring, and supports, and upgrades to the existing gas meter and piping to support the new generator. The work is intended to maintain critical public safety services without expanding the facility’s operational footprint, and the project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15301 and 15061(b)(3), as no significant environmental impacts are anticipated. All work will be performed on-site at the facility, and acceptance will be conducted by Riverside County following completion. The solicitation number is FM08270014306, posted on August 27, 2025, with a submission deadline on the same date, indicating a time-sensitive procurement.
