Replacement of seacamp campground septic system at

The Department of the Interior National Park Service Southeast Region is soliciting proposals for the replacement of septic systems at two locations within Cumberland Island National Seashore: the Seacamp Campground and the Icehouse Museum. The project involves replacing existing failing septic systems with upgraded capacity systems, including four new 1,500-gallon multi-chamber tanks at Seacamp and one 1,500-gallon tank at the Icehouse, along with expanded drain fields and associated infrastructure improvements. Contractors must hold current septic tank installer certification from the Georgia Department of Public Health and demonstrate experience through past performance questionnaires from three similar projects completed within the last five years. The evaluation will be based on technical approach, past performance, and cost, with non-cost factors being significantly more important than price. A mandatory site visit was scheduled for August 6, 2025, and the original proposal deadline has been extended to August 28, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. ET through a solicitation amendment.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 237110 for Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction, requiring contractors to maintain Small Business designation in their SAM.gov registration. The contract will be structured as a firm fixed-price construction agreement with performance and payment bonds required, and the work must be completed within six months of contract award, with the performance period running from October 1, 2025, to March 26, 2026. The Seacamp project involves expanding the drain field from 1,584 to 2,360 square feet, while the Icehouse project requires a new 650 square foot drain field, with both systems designed to handle increased visitor capacity at the national seashore. Work will be performed at Cumberland Island National Seashore in Georgia, and during construction exceeding seven days, the contractor must provide eight portable sanitation units including one accessible unit. The project is funded by Park Fee Revenue and must comply with Georgia Department of Public Health regulations and Davis-Bacon wage determination requirements.
