About this file
This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for a sole source contract by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The contract is for providing irrigation water to the San Luis National Wildlife Refuge Complex, with Henry Miller Reclamation District (HMRD) 2131 identified as the sole source contractor. The procurement is for a new firm fixed-price contract with an estimated fixed price (amount redacted), covering a one-year base period with four one-year option periods.
The justification emphasizes that HMRD controls all ground water in the area through a 40-year Grant of Easement and is essentially the only "utility" for water deliveries in this service area. A Notice of Intent to Sole Source was posted on SAM.GOV under solicitation number 140F0S24Q0044 on 7/23/2024, with no responses received as of 8/14/24. The contract will enable the Service to provide water for wildlife on the Refuge, with pricing based on published utility price lists. The procurement is being conducted under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures using 41 U.S.C. 1901 as the statutory authority.
