The key objectives are to connect the aquaculture system service nearer to the building's domestic water entrance by installing a new 8-inch pressure reducing valve, a dedicated 4-inch water service, additional valves, and a low flow bypass.

Quotes are due by July 18, 2024, and the performance period is 180 days after the notice to proceed.

This solicitation is set aside for small businesses only. The estimated magnitude of the project is between $100,000 and $250,000. A site visit is scheduled for July 2, 2024. The place of performance is Ames, Iowa, 50010. The applicable NAICS code is 238220 - Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors, and the PSC code is Y1NZ - Construction of Other Utilities.

Update #3 · Latest ·

USDA’s National Centers for Animal Health in Ames, Iowa, includes an aquaculture facility in the basement of building 20. The water service for the aquaculture facility is connected at the most hydraulically remote point in the water service for building 20. In the event of a failure of the building or campus water supply, there won’t be sufficient pressure and flow to keep aquaculture operating.

The objectives of this project are to add redundancy to the aquaculture water supply by connecting the aquaculture system service nearer to the building’s domestic water entrance. Work includes adding a new, 8” pressure reducing valve along with a dedicated 4” water service to directly supply the aquaculture system from the main water service.  Additional valves and a low flow bypass around the new pressure reducing valve will be added throughout the system.  Hot tapping will be required for new piping connections to existing systems. 

Solicitation documents are posted below.

An as-built drawing of a partial floor plan, basement level interstitial area is posted below.
