SD-437 IPS Resiliency Project

The SD-437 IPS Resiliency Project, managed by the East Bay Municipal Utility District, involves the seismic retrofitting of the Influent Pump Station at the Main Wastewater Treatment Plant in Oakland, California, along with the replacement of outdated mechanical and electrical equipment and the realignment of the power distribution system to enhance operational resilience. The work is confined to the existing facility located at 2020 Wake Avenue and is intended to ensure uninterrupted wastewater lift capacity during and after seismic events or power disruptions. The project is classified as a forecast, indicating it is in a pre-award planning phase, with construction slated to begin in summer 2027 and expected to last approximately five years. All activities are exempt under California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines 14 CCR 15301(b) for repair and maintenance of existing public facilities, and a Notice of Exemption was filed on January 13, 2026, with an associated receipt number of 3917014. The project is publicly owned, and no federal contracting mechanisms such as FAR clauses, UEI or CAGE codes, or socioeconomic set-asides apply. Payment for associated filing fees is handled through the Alameda County Clerk’s Office, and invoicing is expected to be processed via check. The primary point of contact is Matthew R. Hoeft, Senior Civil Engineer, and all deliverables—retrofitted structure, new equipment, and upgraded power infrastructure—must meet applicable building codes and utility standards, though no detailed technical specifications or quality benchmarks are explicitly outlined. Proposals for related administrative filings must be submitted in paper form, with five copies and appropriate self-addressed envelopes, though no formal solicitation, deadline, or evaluation criteria have been published.
