Los Libertadores, Chiclayo, Lambayeque, Peru, Fax: +51 (74) 235-826. Lambayeque Flood Control Project, Peru. The Grantee (Regional Government of Lambayeque) invites submission of qualifications and proposal data (collectively referred to as the "Proposal") from interested U.S. firms that are qualified on the basis of experience and capability to conduct a Feasibility Study for developing a comprehensive flood control project for the La Leche River watershed. The Regional Government of Lambayeque aims to mitigate flooding of the La Leche River created by the periodic occurrence of the El Ni?o meteorological phenomenon. The objective of the Feasibility Study is to select the optimal alternative for developing a comprehensive flood control project for the La Leche River watershed. The Feasibility Study will give the Regional Government of Lambayeque the opportunity to identify the investments they need to undertake to develop a multiple-use project, which would control flooding, improve water conservation and storage, increase the supply of irrigation water, and eventually increase the supply of potable water. The Terms of Reference (TOR) for the Feasibility Study include the following tasks: 1) Preliminary Field Work and Data Collection; 2) Comparison of Alternatives; 3) Preliminary Designs of the Construction Works; 4) Environmental Impact Assessment Methodology; 5) Environmental Impact Assessment Report; 6) Cost/Benefit Analysis; 7) Potable Water Cost/Benefit Analysis; 8) Financial Projections; 9) Development Impact Assessment; and 10) Final Report. The U.S. firm selected will be paid in U.S. dollars from a $394,940 grant to the Grantee from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA). A detailed Request for Proposals (RFP), which includes requirements for the Proposal, the TOR, and a background Desk Study report is available from USTDA, at 1000 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 1600, Arlington, VA 22209-3901. To request the RFP in PDF format, please go to: <a href=https://www.ustda.gov/USTDA/FedBizOpps/RFP/rfpform.asp>https://www.ustda.gov/USTDA/FedBizOpps/RFP/rfpform.asp</a> . Requests for a mailed hardcopy version of the RFP may also be faxed to the IRC, USTDA at 703-875-4009. In the fax, please include your firm's name, contact person, address, and telephone number. Some firms have found that RFP materials sent by U.S. mail do not reach them in time for preparation of an adequate response. Firms that want USTDA to use an overnight delivery service should include the name of the delivery service and your firm's account number in the request for the RFP. Firms that want to send a courier to USTDA to retrieve the RFP should allow one hour after faxing the request to USTDA before scheduling a pick-up. Please note that no telephone requests for the RFP will be honored. Please check your internal fax verification receipt. Because of the large number of RFP requests, USTDA cannot respond to requests for fax verification. Requests for RFP's received before 4:00 PM will be mailed the same day. Requests received after 4:00 PM will be mailed the following day. Please check with your courier and/or mailroom before calling USTDA. Only U.S. firms and individuals may bid on this USTDA-financed activity. Interested firms, their subcontractors and employees of all participants must qualify under USTDA's nationality requirements as of the due date for submission of qualifications and proposals and, if selected to carry out the USTDA-financed activity, must continue to meet such requirements throughout the duration of the USTDA-financed activity. All goods and services to be provided by the selected firm shall have their nationality, source, and origin in the U.S. or host country. The U.S. firm may use subcontractors from the host country for up to 20 percent of the USTDA grant amount. Details of USTDA's nationality requirements and mandatory contract clauses are also included in the RFP. Interested U.S. firms should submit their Proposal in English and Spanish directly to the Grantee by 4:00 PM (local time in Chiclayo, Peru), August 2, 2007, at the above address. Evaluation criteria for the Proposal are included in the RFP. Price will not be a factor in contractor selection, and therefore, cost proposals should NOT be submitted. The Grantee reserves the right to reject any and/or all Proposals. The Grantee also reserves the right to contract with the selected firm for subsequent work related to the project. The Grantee is not bound to pay for any costs associated with the preparation and submission of Proposals.
