E-MAIL: Vicki Worrell, vworrell@fdcclant.uscg.mil. The U. S. Coast Guard is considering setting this project aside for HUBZone concerns only. The estimated construction cost is between $500,000 and $1,000,000. The applicable Standard Industry Classification (SIC) Code is 1623 and the small business size is $17 million. The work includes, but is not limited to installation of 6-inch potable/fire protection water piping; 4-inch sanitary force main piping; and 2-inch/4-inch diesel fuel double-containment piping. The water and sanitary piping systems will be heat-traced and insulated. A leak detection system will be installed at three low-point sumps in the diesel fuel containment system. The electrical source for the heat-trace and leak detection systems will be from existing panels. The sanitary pipe will be trenched from the base of the pier to the existing lift station. New short structural beams will be installed along the existing pipeway to provide pipe support for the new utility piping. At the present time, the acquisition is expected to be issuedunder full and open competition procedures.
