TITLE: Ponds #1 & #2 Water Distribution Piping Replacement

DESCRIPTION: Furnish all labor, materials, and equipment to complete the following work in accordance with the attached Statement of Work.

The Valley City National Fish Hatchery (NFH) is operated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and consists of the main hatchery at Valley City, and a smaller subunit at Baldhill Dam. The station is located three miles northwest of Valley City, North Dakota along County Road Number 17 in the Sheyenne River Valley.

The Valley City Hatchery is one of two Federal Fish Hatcheries responsible for providing quality fishing opportunities in North Dakota and throughout the Great Plains Region.

To achieve fish rearing operations, water is pumped from a pumphouse located near the Sheyenne River to various ponds at the Hatchery. Over the past several years, Hatchery personnel have made recurring repairs to the water distribution piping that serves Ponds #1 and #2. Due to the shallow bury depth of this piping, recurring freezing events have caused the piping to separate at the joints. This project proposes to replace the existing piping serving ponds #1 and #2 with more robust materials and achieve a bury depth that protects piping from winter freezing events.

LOCATION: Valley City National Fish Hatchery, VC North Dakota

SITE INSPECTION: Contact Aaron Von Eschen, Project Leader at (701) 845-3464 or by e-mail at aaron_voneschen@fws.gov to arrange an inspection time.
