Special notice - industry day/project presentation

The Department of the Interior National Park Service National Office has issued a Special Notice for an Industry Day and Project Presentation regarding the GRCA 318719 - North Rim & Roaring Springs Rehabilitation Program at Grand Canyon National Park. This comprehensive infrastructure rehabilitation project focuses on upgrading utility systems including water, wastewater, electrical, and communication infrastructure at the North Rim and inner canyon sites. A critical component of the project involves drilling two directionally-bored boreholes ranging from 8 to 26 inches in diameter and extending 9,260 feet from the North Rim ballfield to the Roaring Springs Pumphouse. The project will traverse various Paleozoic geological units, presenting significant engineering challenges. The work falls under the NAICS category of Sewage Treatment Facilities and the PSC category of Construction of Other Utilities.

The Special Notice announces a two-part engagement process designed to inform potential contractors about the project scope and requirements. A virtual presentation will be held on August 19, 2025, at 9:00 AM PT via Microsoft Teams, followed by an in-person site visit on August 27, 2025, at 9:30 AM PT at the Grand Canyon Lodge, North Rim. Interested contractors must maintain active Systems for Awards Management (SAM) registration and obtain a UEI number to participate. Companies are limited to a maximum of four representatives for the site visit and must submit participant information including full names, company names, and email addresses by August 22, 2025. The formal solicitation will be posted electronically on SAM.gov, and the government will not provide reimbursement for travel expenses or information submission costs. This Industry Day serves as a preliminary step to familiarize potential bidders with the complex technical requirements and site conditions before the formal procurement process begins.
