- Description
- ***THE INTENTION OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS TO NOTIFY INDUSTRY OF THE GOVERNMENT'S INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE THE TELEMETRY SYSTEM WHICH IS PART OF THE PICAYUNE STRAND RESTORATION PROJECT, FAKA UNION PUMPING STATION, THIS IS NOT A SYNOPSIS FOR THE PICAYUNE STRAND RESTORATION PROJECT, FAKA UNION PUMPING STATION *** The US Army Corps of Engineers intends to solicit on a Sole Source basis under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, the telemetry system of the Picayune Strand Restoration Project, Faka Union Pumping Station, which consists of brand name components and accessories for the following items: Ethernet network switches, programmable logic controllers, touch screens, radios, antennas, satellite voice communication system, routers, multiplexers, patch panels, video camera recorder, remote terminal units, solar equipment, alarm collectors, alarm panels, surge protectors, SCADA software, computers, historical servers, and printers. The telemetry system allows many water control structures to be operated and monitored remotely. It will operate 24 hours a day and will be designed to operate during hurricanes and other severe weather conditions. The Faka Union Pumping Station will be part of a much larger system that South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) uses to remotely operate and monitor its structures. The anticipated dollar amount of the Sole Source system is $500,000.00. The components listed above have been specifically selected due to their performance interoperability as part of an entire telemetry system. Substitution with similar components could present a considerable risk to life and property. The system as a whole provides standardization in training, maintenance, warehousing, and interchangeability during potential life threatening weather events. The Picayune Strand Restoration Project (PSRP) will restore more than 55,000 acres of land located in southwestern Collier County, Florida to a healthy and functional wetland system. The plan for the Project is to remove the infrastructure of a subdivision and restore its pre-drainage hydrology and ecology, generating positive effects on the hydrology, vegetation, and wildlife of the project area and surrounding public lands. In addition, the existing road network within PSRP will be taken down to grade with a limited portion of the roads remaining above grade. The plan for the Picayune Strand Restoration Project, Faka Union Pumping Station, calls for the construction of a pumping station, tie-back levees, spreader cells, and canal plugs to slow water flowing through existing canals and distribute it across the landscape. The Faka Union Pumping Station will have six 470-cfs engine driven pumps and three 100-cfs electrical pumps for a firm capacity of 2650 cfs. The magnitude of construction of the project is $100,000,000.00-$250,000,000.00. The work is in Collier County, Florida. A solicitation for the Picayune Strand Restoration Project, Faka Union Pumping Station will be issued on or about 22 June 2010 with proposals due on or about 5 August 2010. Interested persons may identify their interest and capabilities to the work described in paragraph 1 and respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within fifteen calendars days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Questions concerning this procurement may be addressed to Pamela Shirley at 904-232-1992 or email at Pamela.J.Shirley@usace.army.mil.
