The Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation is soliciting quotations for temporary sewage lift station pumping services at the Elephant Butte Historic District Dam Site Recreation Area in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico under solicitation 140R4026Q0045. The contractor must provide twice-weekly routine pumping services during standard business hours (Monday-Friday, 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM) and emergency/as-needed pumping services outside these hours upon approval from the Contracting Officer's Representative, with emergency dispatch responses required within one calendar day. Offerors must demonstrate technical capability addressing the Performance Work Statement, submit three or more similar past performance contracts completed within the last three years, and provide pricing on an all-inclusive unit price basis per 1,000 gallons covering mobilization, travel, labor, fuel, equipment, permits, pumping, disposal fees, cleanup, and disinfection. Award will be made to the responsible contractor whose quote represents the best value, with technical approach, past performance, and price weighted equally as evaluation factors. Questions were due by April 3, 2026, and quotations are due by April 15, 2026, at 2:00 PM Mountain Time, with all amendments requiring acknowledgment prior to submission.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS 562991 with a $9.0 million small business size standard, and no incumbent contractor exists for this new service requirement. The contract period runs from May 1, 2026, through December 31, 2026 (base year), with an option year extending January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2027, supporting approximately 5,000 gallons of weekly wastewater volume with a not-to-exceed annual limit of 425,000 gallons. The lift station tank measures 12 feet by 12 feet by 20 feet with total capacity of approximately 21,544 gallons, though the operational target maintains sewage levels below the 6-foot inlet pipe mark (approximately 2,352 gallons) to prevent odor issues in rental units. The contractor will receive payment only for actual volume pumped on a prorated basis rather than in full 1,000-gallon increments, with pricing submitted across four contract line items for base year regular services, base year emergency services, option year regular services, and option year emergency services. The performance location is the Elephant Butte Historic District Dam Site Recreation Area at 55 Dam Site Road, Truth or Consequences, New Mexico 87901, and the contract is subject to Wage Determination 2015-5461, Revision 29, effective December 3, 2025.
