Grizzly Flat Fire Station Rebuild 2 February 7, 2024
Project Scope
This project consists of the design and construction of new facilities on an existing USFS owned parcel within the Eldorado National Forest.
The USFS had stationed an engine module consisting of one Type 3 fire engine and a Type 2 2500-gallon water tender with a crew of seven firefighters. There was also a Battalion Chief stationed there with their command vehicle. Previously a hand crew of ten firefighters and their crew buggy were also stationed at this location. The firefighters at this location provided mutual aid to the town of Grizzly Flats along with covering approximately 50,000 acres of the southwestern portion of the Eldorado National Forest.
The new facilities and utility infrastructure at the Grizzly Flats Fire Station will provide mission critical support for the Placerville Ranger District and the local community of Grizzly Flats. As a part of this project the agency would like to maximize use of sustainable building practices. With the likelihood of intermittent power outages, this location must have backup power capability. This would be provided by a solar array sized to maintain emergency power along with a generator to support if the power outage lasts more than 48 hours.
The facilities to be included are the engine bay and garage along with four 6-occupant barracks each using the Region 5 standards which will be provided, excluding structural and civil design and all site-specific coordination of the provided documents and specifications. All associated site work (to include but not limited to earthwork, extension or installation of utilities, septic system installation, road reconstruction and others) to be the responsibility of the contractor. All other associated trades to include but not limited to mechanical, electric, plumbing, HVAC, communications, monitoring systems to be included in the project to allow the engine module to immediately occupy the space.
After the construction drawing set is complete, the Design/Build firm will provide construction contract administration support to the Government Construction Contract Administration Team.
Project Location
The project location is in the community of Grizzly Flats approximately 10 miles south of US 50. The address is 4400 String Canyon Rd, Grizzly Flat CA, 95636. Driving directions are provided as an attachment.

Figure 2: Site Map (larger is included as an attachment)
Known Existing Conditions:
1. Utilities:
a. Electric– Electricity is provided by PG&E. They undergrounded the lines post fire and the transformer for the original location is located near the east side of the parcel. Designer will determine if there needs to be an upgrade to the system along with adding a new power main. If so, designer to include as a part of design and cost estimate. Contractor to perform all coordination with PG&E to include requesting a new service if necessary.
Grizzly Flat Fire Station Rebuild 5 February 7, 2024
b. Water – Water is provided by Grizzly Flats Community Service District. Currently there is a 2-in line from the water main, but it is located on the east side of the parcel. Currently the only 6-in pressurized line is located along Tyler Drive and parallel to Sciaroni Road. Due to code changes and the need for fire suppression there will need to be a 6-in line for fire and a separate 2-in line for residential installed.
c. Sewer – There is no city provided sewer services, a new septic system to include a properly sized leach field. Contractor to perform all coordination with outside agencies as needed.
d. Internet – The engine garage/office space will require network access. Contractor to work with client to coordinate USDA CIO support.
Period of Performance
The Services shall commence after the Notice to Proceed is issued. The NTP shall be issued within 10 days of the award. Design/Build services shall have a total period of performance of 150 calendar days for the design document process. Construction and construction administration support shall have a period of performance of 270 days from initial construction NTP. Total Design/Build schedule is 420 calendar days.
