Flood Park Restroom A Sewer Line Replacement

The County of San Mateo Parks Department is issuing a Request for Proposals for the Flood Park Restroom A Sewer Line Replacement project, a public works infrastructure improvement procurement. The project scope encompasses the complete replacement of approximately 130 linear feet of failing 6-inch vitrified clay pipe with new HDPE or PVC SDR 35 pipe, including demolition, excavation, installation via directional boring or open trench methods, reconnection of two lateral lines serving an adobe building with toilet and sink facilities and a public restroom with two sinks, four toilets, and two urinals, installation of a cleanout at the adobe building connection, and connection to the existing downstream manhole with a minimum 1 percent slope for proper solids conveyance. Deliverables include 16 line items covering mobilization, traffic control, utility locates, demolition, excavation, pipe installation, slope verification, lateral reconnections, cleanout installation, manhole connection, testing, surface restoration, and closeout documentation. All work must comply with California Plumbing Code, ASTM standards, and OSHA safety regulations, and must be completed within 60 days from the start date with work conducted between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Minimum qualifications require proposers to have provided similar services for at least four years within the last seven years, confirmation of non-debarred status in SAM.gov, and a valid UEI number. A non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for January 29, 2026 at 10:00 AM at Flood Park, with a deadline for questions and contract exceptions of February 4, 2026 at 5:00 PM, and proposals due electronically via the County's eProcurement portal by February 12, 2026 at 5:00 PM. Evaluation shall be based on price as the sole criterion.

The County of San Mateo has adopted a Procurement Preference for Local Businesses Ordinance that provides preferences to local businesses, local non-profits, and their small and micro variants, with an additional 3 percent preference for small businesses or small non-profits and 5 percent for micro businesses or micro non-profits applied to the 25-point price evaluation criterion. No incumbent vendor or current contractor is identified in the procurement documents. The contract term is one year, and all work must comply with prevailing wage requirements for public works projects and the County's Living Wage Ordinance, with contractors required to maintain workers' compensation insurance with statutory coverage, general liability insurance of $1,000,000, motor vehicle liability insurance of $1,000,000, and professional liability insurance of $1,000,000, naming the County as an additional insured. The specific award value or budget range is not disclosed in the available procurement documents; however, the County has provided a Standard Contract Template for agreements exceeding $200,000 alongside a template for contracts under $200,000, suggesting the project value may fall within either range pending final award determination.
