DHSEM Mitigation Project - Overall Map.pdf

The document is a DHSEM Mitigation Project Overall Map created by Mountain Parks Electric Inc. (MPEI), depicting planned electrical infrastructure modifications across multiple counties in Colorado. The map illustrates six approved electric distribution workplan projects located in Grand and Jackson counties, with color-coded indicators for existing reuse, new lines, new poles, retired lines, and retired poles. The project involves undergrounding overhead power lines and overhead rebuilds across multiple locations such as Kremmling, Hot Sulphur Springs, Taz Creek, and Willow Park, with geographical coverage spanning approximately 30 miles.

The project is funded through the Colorado Department of Public Safety's Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (DHSEM) Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) and FEMA, with a project timeline spanning from Q3 2025 to Q1 2027 and potential contract extension options. The contractor selection will be based on qualifications, safety record, references, and pricing, with a specific requirement for expertise in 25kV overhead and underground distribution construction. The map provides a comprehensive visual representation of the proposed electrical infrastructure modifications, highlighting the strategic approach to wildfire mitigation through power line infrastructure improvements in mountainous regions of Colorado.
