Pineview Reservoir Recreation Complex Reconstruction – Uinta Wasatch, Cache National Forest, Weber Utah

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service is seeking contractors for the comprehensive reconstruction of recreational facilities at the Pineview Reservoir Recreation Complex in the Uinta Wasatch, Cache National Forest, Weber County, Utah. The project encompasses three major components: Base 0001 (New Entrance Road and Site Improvements), Base 0002 (Pineview Trailhead Project), and Option 1001 (New Point Project), involving extensive civil engineering construction including road reconstruction, storm drainage systems, precast concrete vault comfort stations, parking areas, pavilions, trails, boat ramp improvements, and various recreational amenities. A mandatory pre-bid site visit was held on May 12, 2025, at Windsurfer Beach, with the original question deadline of May 14, 2025, and proposal submissions due June 25, 2025, at 9:00 AM CDT following recent amendments. The evaluation will utilize a tradeoff process where non-price factors are more important than price, assessing past experience, work plan, key personnel, past performance, and proposed pricing. The firm-fixed-price contract has a performance period from September 15, 2025, to September 15, 2026, following amendments that extended both the proposal deadline and completion date.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) with a size standard of $45 million. The project magnitude exceeds $10 million, representing a significant infrastructure investment for recreational facility enhancement at the Pineview Reservoir complex. The work will be performed in Riverton, UT 84095, and involves multiple construction phases including site preparation, earthwork, concrete installation, utility work, and the construction of various recreational infrastructure elements such as comfort stations, pavilions, trails, and accessibility improvements. Recent amendments have modified quantities for certain items, including a reduction in rockery retaining wall requirements from 11,800 to 3,050 linear feet in the Pineview Trailhead component. The comprehensive scope includes both base work items and optional components, allowing for phased implementation of the recreational facility improvements across the forest service property.
