Two 1.5 MG Tanks Replacement (Project)

The project involves the replacement and operation of two aboveground welded steel 1.5-million-gallon potable water storage reservoirs and an associated pump house in Ridgecrest, Kern County, California, located north of Highway 178 between Snort Bypass Rd. and North Brady Street. The work is being carried out by the China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station under the oversight of the California State Water Resources Control Board’s Division of Drinking Water, which has verified compliance with California Waterworks Standards (Cal. Code Regs., Tit. 22, § 64585) and approved the design as ministerial under Cal. Code Regs., § 15268, exempting the project from environmental review under CEQA. Inspection and acceptance authority rests with the State Water Board, with the official record of approval maintained at their Bakersfield office, and the physical performance location is designated at the specified site in Ridgecrest. All components must meet state regulatory requirements for potable water storage and distribution, with no alternative standards or additional specifications cited beyond the California Waterworks Standards. No contract type, pricing, value, or payment details are provided, and no solicitation or contract number exists in the documentation. There is no identified period of performance, delivery schedule, FOB terms, invoicing method, or accounting data such as TAS or ACRN. The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) clause structures are not applicable or referenced, and no contract clauses, representations, certifications, or socioeconomic qualifications are included. There are no listed attachments, packaging or marking requirements, evaluation factors, source selection criteria, or instructions for proposal submission. Key personnel include Jesse Dhaliwal as District Engineer and Michael Bizon as Administrative Contact, but formal roles as COR, COTR, or PCO are not assigned. The project operates within a state regulatory framework with federal ownership of the site, but lacks typical federal procurement documentation such as CLINs, UEI or CAGE codes, or formal contracting mechanisms typically governed by FAR.
