This procurement is being conducted under competitive small business set-a-side procedures and is for the construction services described below. The proposed NAICS code for this acquisition is 237110 Water main and line construction with a size standard of $33.5 Million. This project involves replacing the potable water system at the Fishing Bridge area in Yellowstone National Park. The work includes replacing buried water piping and associated service lines, a new buried water storage tank, and a horizontal directional bore under the Yellowstone River. The Fishing Bridge area is located on the east side of Yellowstone Lake. The closest city outside the park is Cody, Wyoming, approximately 77 miles from Fishing Bridge. The closest park entrance to the project site is the East Entrance of Yellowstone. Between the East entrance and Fishing Bridge, access is over Sylvan Pass along a winding road. There is no access to the area during the winter season, which lasts from approximately the first week in November through the middle of April. No contractor camp will be allowed in the park, however, ten trailer sites are reserved for this project at the contractor trailer park area approximately two miles from the project site. More sites may be available. The sites require a monthly fee to cover administrative costs. The water system project includes installing 17,000 feet of domestic water piping consisting of 4-inch, 6-inch, 8-inch, and 10-inch ductile iron pipe. The project also includes new water main valves, meter vaults, utility vaults, service lines and service meters, fire hydrants, campground water service connections, and other water system appurtenances.

The work includes clearing trees, excavation and backfill, the new concrete tank, new piping and valve vaults for the tank, new tank telemetry and controls, and demolishing the existing water tank and vaults. The directional bore under the river includes a 24-inch diameter bore of approximately 1,500 feet length with constrained entry and exit locations.
