Contractors are required to perform saw cutting of asphalt, remove materials, conduct leak testing, complete necessary repairs, and restore the site. The government will evaluate proposals based on experience, technical capability, past performance, and price, with non-price factors being significantly more important than price.

The project involves extensive underground infrastructure work, including repairing PVC water supply lines that serve concrete burrows ponds used for fisheries research. Quotes may be submitted via email to dparkin@usgs.gov, with faxed quotes not being accepted. The total project magnitude is currently undetermined, but will involve detailed excavation, leak repair, and site restoration work.
