The cooling tower specification includes detailed technical parameters: design conditions of 95°F dry bulb and 80.7°F wet bulb, water inlet and outlet temperatures of 95°F and 85°F respectively, and a water flow capacity of 1,418.1 gallons per minute.

No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this sources sought notice, and no incumbent contractors are identified. The government has not committed to issuing a formal solicitation and reserves the right to proceed or modify the requirement based on responses received.
