[Includes Decommissioning, Removal, and Breaching of Crystal Springs Dam] U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge (AMNWR) – Nye County, Nevada
This is a Sources Sought Notice for the purposes of conducting market research and obtaining industry information ONLY. This is NOT a request for proposal, quotation, or bid, nor a synopsis of a proposed action under FAR Subpart 5.2. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated for providing information in response to this synopsis or on any follow up information. No solicitation is currently available. The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) will use information obtained through this synopsis as well as other market research to develop an acquisition strategy.
Summary:
The USFWS is anticipating the solicitation and award of one firm fixed price design build construction contract for the Decommissioning, Breaching, and Removal of Crystal Springs Dam, Horseshoe Dam, and Lower Crystal Springs Dam, Decommissioning and Removal of Crystal Springs Reservoir, Horseshoe Reservoir, and Lower Crystal Springs Reservoir, Removal of Existing Irrigation Infrastructure and Site Restoration, Re-construction of New Spring Outflow Channel(s), Construction of Visitor Access Improvements, and All Associated Appurtenances.
The Project Area of Interest includes approximately 5 miles of irrigation ditch and irrigation berm and approximately 1 mile of new spring outflow channels to be constructed under this Design/Build Contract.
The Desert National Wildlife Refuge Complex (DNWRC), Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge (AMNWR), is requesting Design/Build Services to restore its largest spring system, Crystal Springs. Discharge from Crystal Springs supports a diverse array of habitat types including wet meadows, emergent marshes, alkali flats, and riparian areas. Crystal Springs and its drainage were previously modified and developed for agricultural uses. Remaining irrigation infrastructure is aging rapidly, creating a requirement for remedial action and an opportunity to restore natural habitats for the benefit of rare fish, wildlife, and plants.
This project includes a comprehensive restoration of the Crystal Springs system to restore ecological function and incorporates visitor access and interpretation enhancements to increase opportunities for outdoor education and recreation.
The primary NAICS code for this acquisition will be 237990 – Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction and the size standard is $45 Million.
