About this file
This is an amendment to a federal solicitation and a questions and answers document for the Lake Powhatan Sewer Project, solicitation number 12445226Q0007, issued by the USDA-FS CSA EAST 12 located in Atlanta, Georgia. Amendment 0001 is effective February 26, 2026, and serves to post industry questions and answers, revise solicitation documents based on those questions, and extend the quote due date to March 9, 2026, at 5:00 PM EST.
The questions and answers address design specifications, solicitation format, and project requirements. Key technical clarifications include: electrical drawings will be included in the revised plans; all pipe materials should reference Schedule 80 PVC rather than ductile iron; HDPE directional boring is permitted for trenchless road crossings; and as-builts for the existing treatment plant being decommissioned will be provided. For solicitation procedures, contractors must submit five volumes (Acknowledgement of Amendments, Bid Guarantee, Technical Approach, Past Performance, and Price), with SF30s and acknowledged amendments submitted in Volume 1. The government determined there will be no evaluation weights assigned to treatment plant disposal methods, though disposal must not interfere with contract performance. Additional requirements clarifications specify that no additional permits are required from the contractor; the project period is not constrained by seasonal operations; measurement and payment are based on the Schedule of Items task breakdown; and the existing treatment plant may continue operating and discharging under the NC DEQ Discharge Permit. Contact information is provided for the Mayor of Rosman regarding potential plant acquisition and for the licensed contract operator regarding waste processing coordination.

Solicitation
Q6: Please confirm the format required for proposal submissions. At the site visit, it was discussed that each 'section' or volume of the proposal was required to be a separate PDF.
Technical Approach, Price, and Past Performance. Please confirm 3 total volumes are required.
Answer: Contractors shall submit the five (5) volumes. Acknowledgement of Amendments, Bid Guarantee, Technical Approach, Past Performance, and Price. The solicitation will be updated to include these instructions.
Q7: Please advise which volume the government wishes to see the SF30s and acknowledged amendments in.
Answer: The SF30s and acknowledged amendments should be submitted in Volume 1- Acknowledgement of Amendments. The solicitation will be updated to include these instructions.
Q8: Please advise if there will be any evaluation weights assigned to how the wastewater treatment plant is being disposed of.
Answer: After further discussion, the Government has concluded there will be no evaluation weights assigned to how the wastewater treatment plant is being disposed of.
Technical approach regarding the disposal of the water treatment plant will only be deemed acceptable if the disposal does not interfere and/or negatively impact contract performance.
Q9: we noticed that Section 00800 – Measurement and Payment was not included. Please provide this section at your earliest convenience.
Answer: Measurement and Payment shall be based on the task breakdown provided in the Schedule of Items.
Requirements
Q10: It was discussed at the site visit that all permits were in place for this project including the decommissioning permits. Please confirm there are no additional permits required for any scope of work from the GC.
Answer: The Contractor will not be required to secure any additional permits to complete the scope of work for this project.
Q11: Are there any anticipated deadlines for opening dates or turn-over dates?
Answer: The project period of performance will not be constrained by seasonal campground operations.
Q12: It was discussed at the site visit that the City of Rosman may be interested in obtaining this treatment plant. Please provide the POC for this so we can discuss options.
Answer: Brian Shelton, Mayor of Rosman Address: Town Hall St, 6 Main St, Rosman, NC Phone: (828)-884-6859
Q13: Please advise if we will be able to process the waste remaining in the plant prior to shutdown or if the contents will have to be trucked out.
Answer: The existing Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) may continue to operate and process and discharge treated wastewater as long as it remains compliant with the NC DEQ issued Discharge Permit. It is strongly recommended that the Contractor coordinate with the Licensed Contract Operator responsible for the plant to understand how long the plant could potentially continue to discharge and remain in compliance prior to requiring stored wastewater to be removed by septic pumper. Non-compliant or illegal discharges resulting from operational disruption caused by means and methods during the decommissioning process are the responsibility of the Contactor. Contract Operator: Joe David Hall, ORC, Environmental Inc. 828-226-7784
