About this file

This is Amendment 0001 to a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) solicitation for water treatment services. The solicitation number is 697DCK-26-R-00373, issued by AAQ-500 (Regional Acquisitions) in College Park, Georgia. The amendment is effective August 24, 2026, and incorporates a Questions and Responses document into the solicitation, with all other terms and conditions remaining unchanged. Offers must acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to the specified hour and date by completing required items and returning the document, acknowledging receipt on each copy of the offer submitted, or submitting a separate letter or telegram referencing the solicitation and amendment number. Failure to acknowledge receipt at the designated place prior to the specified deadline may result in rejection of the offer.

The Questions and Responses document addresses water treatment services at the Minneapolis Air Route Traffic Control Center (ZMP ARTCC) in Farmington, Minnesota. Key facility information includes three identical BAC cooling towers (Model 8407SLS1SMF, Serial Number 10026998-A1NC8407SM-10) with a total capacity of 2,055 tons (685 per cell), two 250-ton chillers and two 300-ton chillers, and various pump systems with capacities of 1,650 GPM (condenser), 650 GPM (chill water closed loop), and 240 GPM (hot water closed loop). Annual make-up water usage data is provided in detailed monthly figures. The FAA owns the existing water treatment equipment, the cooling tower system is never drained, and operational loads vary seasonally with one tower and one chiller running during spring, fall, and winter months, and one tower with two chillers during summer. The FAA is responsible for cooling tower cleanings and disinfections at minimum once per year. Notably, the FAA declined several vendor proposals including remote 24/7/365 modem monitoring, double-wall containment for biocides, and chemical feeder/filtration systems for closed loops.
