- Description
- DESC: The Defense Energy Support Center (DESC), in conjunction with the United States Air Force plans to offer the privatization of the electrical distribution system and wastewater collection system at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. Privatization is defined as the transfer of ownership and responsibility for the operations, maintenance, repair, future upgrades, and future utility system replacements. As a result of this solicitation, the firm will be selected to assume ownership of the above-mentioned utility system(s). The successful firm will be required to provide expansions to the system(s) to meet future needs of the government. The resulting contract, if awarded, will require the Contractor to furnish all facilities, labor, materials, tools, and equipment necessary to own, maintain, and operate the utility system(s). The Contractor shall manage the maintenance, repairs, replacement, etc., of the system(s) to ensure continuous, adequate, and dependable service for each Government or tenant connection within the service area. The Contractor shall be responsible for funding all capital investments required to acquire, maintain and operate the utility system(s) in a safe, reliable condition and to meet the requirements listed in the contract. Real property interests will be conveyed in the form of a Right-of-Way (ROW) as an attachment to the RFP. The utility system(s) will be conveyed via a Bill of Sale upon award of the contract. Past performance information from potential Offerors shall be submitted as directed in the RFP. The utility systems being privatized are described as follows: Installation: Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. System Descriptions: Electric and Wastewater. Strategically located on the northern portion of the Island of Guam, Andersen AFB occupies 20,000 acres of land. Andersen AFB covers an area roughly 8 miles wide and 2-4 miles long (24.5squaremiles). Andersen AFB has three major utility systems that are under review for potential privatization: the electrical distribution, potable water production and distribution, and wastewater collection utility systems. (The base does not have a natural gas distribution system.) The following is provided only to give an approximation of the size, scope and general description of the utility systems at Andersen AFB. Any numbers may be used for estimating only. The electrical distribution system at Andersen AFB is currently owned by the Air Force and operated and maintained by the Navy civilian personnel. Andersen AFB purchases its electric power requirements from the Navy and redistributes the electricity throughout the base. Andersen AFB?s electrical distribution utility system includes the following: 1 main substation, approximately 11.4 circuit miles of overhead primary distribution line, 20.6 circuit miles of underground primary distribution line, 15.0 circuit miles of overhead secondary distribution line, 12.4 circuit miles of underground secondary distribution line and 31,104 kVA of overhead and pad mounted transformers. The wastewater system on Andersen AFB collects and conveys on average 1.0 MGD of wastewater (sewage) to GWA?s system for treatment and disposal. The bases waste water collection system includes the following: 8 industrial grease traps, 17 oil water separators (OWS?s), approximately 255,000 linear feet (48.3 miles) of piping, ranging in size from 4-inches to 20-inches in diameter, 495 manholes, and 6 sewage lift stations (SLS?s) (5 with emergency generators). Andersen?s collection system includes CP, TP, ACP, RCP and CIP. It is predominantly a gravity flow system in which four main areas flow to the SLS, and ultimately discharges to the force main connected to GWA?s wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). Andersen completed upgrading all the wastewater collection lines within the family housing areas during 2001; approximately 98,000 linear feet (38.4 percent of the total) of the wastewater collection system was replaced. See Note 26. All responsible sources may submit an offer, which shall be considered. Large businesses are required to submit a subcontracting plan with their offer. Interested sources shall contact Bobby Jones at 703-767-2397 to be added to our bidder mailing list. A copy of the solicitation will be available after issuance, on the Internet at the below listed URL. The solicitation will be available on or after March 19, 2004 LINKURL: http://www.desc.dla.mil/DCM/DCMPage.asp?pageid=246 LINKDESC: http://www.desc.dla.mil EMAILADD: Robert.E.Jones@dla.mil
