The Honolulu District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) proposes to construct  a tactical vehicle wash facility at Kahuku Training Area Oahu, Hawaii.

This is a competitive 8(a) set aside procurement.  It has been determined that competition will be limited to 8(a) firms located within the geographical area serviced by  the SBA Hawaii District Office (HDO) and other 8(a) construction firms with a bona fide place of business within the geographical competitive area and with the assigned NAICS code of 236220 Commercial and Institutional Building Construction.  All other 8(a) BD Participants are deemed ineligible to submit offers.  This Design-Bid-Build project will include six wash stations and a new on-site non-potable water well.  The primary facility will consist of the preparation area and wash stations.  The wash stations will use a high-pressure wash system and recycle water to minimize wastewater disposal.  The spent wash water will flow through a water sedimentation basin and oil-water separators, then through a pressure media filter and screen filter, and chlorinated before being deposited into a water supply reservoir.  Treatment will include oil and grease removal, grit removal, and organic control.  A mechanical equipment building will house the mechanical secondary treatment units and the control panels necessary for the facility.  Supporting facilities include utilities, paving, fencing, curbing, and site improvements.  Estimated Construction Cost is between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000.
