The document is an Amendment to the Project Manual for the Anton Chico Water and Wastewater Improvements project, issued by the New Mexico State Purchasing Division (GSD) and involving the New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT) District 4. The project focuses on comprehensive infrastructure upgrades for two rest areas near Santa Rosa, New Mexico, with a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting scheduled for April 16, 2025, and a final bid due date of April 25, 2025, at 2:00 pm. The scope of work 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. The procurement is structured as a unit price contract with 71 separate bid items covering improvements for both eastbound and westbound rest areas.

The bid requires electronic submission through the eProNM system with a mandatory 5% bid security, and bidders must be registered with the New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions for projects exceeding $60,000. Contractors must provide a subcontractor listing form and will be required to obtain 100% performance and payment bonds while complying with prevailing wage rates. Potential New Mexico/Native American Resident Preferences may apply, though multiple preferences are restricted. While a specific budget is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the infrastructure improvements suggests a substantial project value, likely funded through state sources with potential federal fund involvement. Successful bidders must demonstrate expertise in municipal infrastructure development, particularly in water and wastewater system installations, and possess the technical capability to manage complex multi-component engineering projects in rural rest area environments.
