About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document for federal contract opportunity 6982AF26Q000005 for the NM BL CRUC 4101(1) Aguirre Spring Road project, dated 3/16/2026. The document addresses inquiries received on 3/10/26 regarding equipment specifications for drilling operations on this project.

The single question posed concerns the feasibility of using a Geoprobe 7822DT track vehicle as an alternative to a truck-mounted drilling rig. The contracting officer rejected this proposal, clarifying that the project requires a truck-mounted auger rig because drilling is limited to the roadway surface with the primary objective of collecting subsurface soil samples. The response emphasizes that a truck-mounted rig is more operationally efficient than a track vehicle given that boring locations are spaced approximately one-third mile apart, making the greater mobility of a truck configuration preferable for this application.
