Site work and new construction of a water / sewer project in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Working plans call for the construction of a water / sewer project.

The Pagosa Area Water and Sanitation District (PAWSD or District) is seeking Statements of Qualifications (SOQ's) from qualified engineering firms to conduct a feasibly study for a new 3 MGD +- water treatment plant to take the place of the existing 2 MGD Snowball direct filtration water treatment plant constructed in 1984/5. The feasibility study will outline the most practical approach for the new water treatment plant, including type of facility and whether to construct the new plant alongside the existing system while existing system continues to operate or demolish the existing system prior to construction and use other PAWSD assets to meet water production needs during construction. It is the intent of PAWSD to use the selected firm to continue with the project after feasibility has been completed and extend the contract for design services, bidding assistance and construction oversight services. It is the intent of the District to move directly from a ranking of interested firms based on their SOQ's and subsequent interviews, to the development of a negotiated Scope of Work, Budget and a contract for services. All questions regarding the RFQ must be submitted in writing (emails acceptable) to Justin Ramsey (justin@pawsd.org). Please refrain from asking questions until the mandatory pre-SOQ conference/tour as many questions will be answered at this meeting. All questions received will be posted along with answers on the PAWSD. Final posting to the website will be on May 1, 2020. The method of contractor selection has not been determined at this time.Request for proposals for design services is underway *This project is on hold due to the public health crisis. A new timeline has not been established.
