About this file

This document is an amendment to the pre-bid instructions for Solicitation 140P2024R0130, titled "Voya 308690: Replace Power Distribution". The solicitation is issued by the Department of the Interior National Park Service National Office to replace the main underwater high voltage cable and multiple transformer boxes, as well as install improved emergency backup generation, for the Kettle Falls district. The project is necessary due to safety risks posed by the compromised neutral wire, which can lead to power outages and issues with fire suppression and concessions operations. The amendment provides clarification and updates to the pre-bid instructions, including revised dates for the site visit and submission of questions. No further details about required products or services, pricing, or award information are provided in this specific document.
