Treatment Systems,” at Death Valley National Park in California (Inyo County).

Purpose: The purpose of this announcement is to advise Industry that NPS DSC intends on issuing a Negotiated RFP Solicitation for the construction services described below, utilizing Unrestricted Full and Open Competition procedures, in support of the DEVA 318717 project referenced above at Death Valley National Park in California.

This PSN is not a formal Solicitation in itself, but rather a Synopsis of forthcoming RFP 140P2025R0082.

General Project Description & Scope: This project is located at Death Valley National Park in (Inyo County) California, specifically within the Furnace Creek and Cow Creek areas. The Park will remain open during construction; therefore, contract activities and logistics must be structured and scheduled to minimize visitor impact. The project site will require protective measures to ensure the surrounding areas remain undisturbed.

The purpose of this construction project is to rehabilitate, replace, and upgrade various components of the deteriorating water and wastewater systems in the Furnace Creek and Cow Creek developed areas of Death Valley National Park with newly designed systems. Wastewater system work will include replacing service laterals, correcting pressured force mains and gravity sewer mains, as well as repairing or replacing the manholes and pump stations. Lagoon improvements will include repairs and upgrades to improve capacity. Water system work at Cow Creek will consist of developing a new well, reconstructing the reverse osmosis building, upgrading the control system and air quality monitoring equipment, installing a generator and security fence, and rehabilitation of the non-potable system (trunk and lateral lines) in the housing area. Water system work at Furnace Creek will include rehabilitating reservoir access hatch and internal stairs, constructing a chlorination building, and replacing well pumps.

Deficiencies with distribution piping and appurtenances will also be addressed.
