About this file
This is a Notice of Proposed Sole Source document issued by the Colorado Department of Natural Resources, Division of Water Resources (DWR), for a Confined Aquifer Sustainability Study (NPSS1 PEAA 2027*0051). The solicitation seeks services related to groundwater and hydrogeology studies for Division 3's confined and unconfined aquifers. A Purchase Order is anticipated to be issued in August 2027, pending available funding, with a sole source procurement end date of June 30, 2029. The notice invites other vendors to submit a brief one-page cover letter demonstrating their capability to provide the required services, allowing entities to challenge the proposed sole source award status. Submissions should be directed to Jeanette Stroud at the Department of Natural Resources Purchasing Office via email with the solicitation number in the subject line.
The Division of Water Resources has budgeted approximately $249,950 for this work. HRS Water Consultants is identified as the proposed sole source vendor based on their extensive experience with Division 3's aquifer systems over many years and their deep expertise in groundwater and hydrogeology specific to the region. The sole source justification emphasizes that any alternative vendor would require substantial time and resources to develop the necessary background knowledge, which would jeopardize the State Engineer's required project deadlines. This notice serves as both a formal notification of intent to award and an invitation for other qualified entities to challenge the sole source determination or demonstrate comparable capabilities.

Notice of Proposed Sole Source Scope of Work and Sole Source Justification
NPSS1 PEAA 2027*0051
Confined Aquifer Sustainability Study
Scope of Services See attached Scope of Work.
Schedule and Term of Award A Purchase Order will be issued in August of 2027 pending available funding. The Sole Source Procurement end date is June 30, 2029.
Budget The Division of Water Resources (DWR) has budgeted an approximate amount of $249,950 for work.
Sole Source Justification HRS Water Consultants has been working for the Division of Water Resources in the study of the confined and unconfined aquifers of Division 3 for many years. They have by far the most experience of any water consulting company in the areas of groundwater and hydrogeology in Division 3. Any other consulting company would be required to spend a considerable amount of time and expense in simply developing the background knowledge needed to begin this study. The additional time needed would jeopardize the required deadlines for the project. HRS Water Consultants is the only vendor that can provide the necessary services and meet the deadlines imposed on the State Engineer.
