The document is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) from the New Mexico State Purchasing Division (GSD) and the New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT) District 4 for the Anton Chico Water and Wastewater Improvements project located in Guadalupe County. The project involves comprehensive infrastructure upgrades for two rest areas near Santa Rosa, New Mexico, with 71 separate bid items covering improvements to eastbound and westbound rest areas. The scope includes installing sewer lines, septic tanks, leach fields, water distribution lines, water storage tanks, booster pumps, chlorine disinfection equipment, nitrate treatment systems, well building expansions, and associated electrical and control systems. A non-mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for April 16, 2025, at the Eastbound Anton Chico Rest Area, with the final bid due electronically through the eProNM system on April 25, 2025, at 2:00 pm.

The procurement requires bidders to submit a 5% bid security and be registered with the New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions for projects exceeding $60,000. Contractors must provide a subcontractor listing form and are mandated to obtain 100% performance and payment bonds. The project will comply with prevailing wage rates, and potential New Mexico/Native American Resident Preferences may apply, with restrictions on multiple preference applications. While a specific budget is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive infrastructure improvements suggest a substantial project value, likely funded through state sources with potential federal fund involvement. Bidders must demonstrate expertise in municipal infrastructure development, specifically in water and wastewater system installations, and have the technical capability to manage complex multi-component engineering projects in rural rest area environments.
