About this opportunity
The Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is soliciting installation of two 30,000-gallon Jet A fuel storage tank systems at Moore Air Base in Edinburg, Texas, with proposals due June 23 at noon Central Time. This is a Total Small Business set-aside, firm-fixed-price design-build procurement.
Place of performance is Edinburg, Texas. Moore Air Base, designated by the Secretary of Agriculture as a critical production site for New World Screwworm sterile fly dispersal, requires Jet A fuel capability to support Beechcraft King Air Model 90 and future Cessna 208 aircraft; the existing AvGas LL100 supply is incompatible with these platforms. The contractor must deliver complete above-ground storage tank systems with double-wall fire-protected tanks, manifolded configuration with shared pumping and filtration equipment, and individual tank isolation valving. System design must dispense Jet A fuel (ASTM D1655) via over-wing refueling at 50 gallons per minute at 50 psi. The contractor performs design and sealed structural engineering for foundations compliant with ACI 318, handles excavation and concrete pouring, tank placement, security fencing, electrical infrastructure, and commissioning including hydrostatic testing, fuel quality validation, and operator training. Performance period is 140 calendar days from Notice to Proceed. The estimated magnitude is between $250,000 and $500,000; quotes exceeding this range will be accepted. NAICS is 237120, Oil and Gas Pipeline and Related Structures Construction; PSC is Y1NA, Construction of Fuel Supply Facilities. The solicitation closing date has been extended twice (currently June 23); Amendment 1 rescheduled the mandatory site visit to June 1 at 9 a.m., requiring advance notice to james.g.roloff@usda.gov. An RFI response document addressing 87 contractor questions was posted June 16, and a compiled RFI response addressing design specifications was posted June 17. Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates apply for Hidalgo County, Texas.

Update #8 · Latest ·
For more than 60 years, Moore Air Base has served as a hub for sterile insect dispersal operations, supporting an average of ten daily flights with two to three small aircraft that currently utilize low lead–grade aviation fuel. With the establishment of new production facilities and the planned modernization of the MexFly fleet, updated fuel infrastructure is now required. To meet these operational demands, two Jet A fuel storage tanks must be installed to support contracted aircraft for New World Screwworm (NWS) sterile fly dispersal, as well as future aircraft to be procured for continued MexFly missions.
The Secretary of Agriculture has designated Moore Air Base as a critical production site for NWS to help prevent the spread of infestation to livestock and potential human hosts. To support this expanded mission, upgraded fuel storage capability is essential for upcoming flight operations. The base’s existing AvGas LL100 supply is incompatible with the Beechcraft King Air Model 90, the aircraft selected for NWS dispersal. Jet A fuel will also be required for the future Cessna 208 aircraft planned to replace the current Cessna 306 fleet used in MexFly dispersal operations.
Solicitation documents are posted below.
PLEASE NOTE: Interested parties are urged to read at least the first four pages of the RFQ. This will save you and the government time because many of the questions we receive are answered there. Thank you.
Amendment 1 is posted below. It changes the date of the site visit to June 1 at 9 a.m.
Those intending to attend the site visit must provide names in advance. Send to james.g.roloff@usda.gov.
NOTE: We do not have an independent government estimate for this project. The solicitation states that the estimated magnitude of this project is between $250,000 and $500,000. As an interested party, when you develop your quote and find that your number exceeds $500,000, do not hesitate to submit your quote at whatever number you develop. The New World Screwworm program is among USDA's highest priorities, so if competitive quotes come in that well exceed the given magnitude, it's still likely that this project would be fully funded.
