City of Gunnison Electric Department is requesting SOQs from a qualified engineering firm to assist with the development of an electric distribution system master plan. This assistance shall come in the form of various scenarios of load growth, alternative expansion options, and system reliability through the installation of substations, transmission, and underground and overhead distribution circuits.
