This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

The Pagosa Area Water and Sanitation District (PAWSD) is a quasi-municipal corporation and political subdivision of the State of Colorado and is organized and operated pursuant to Title 32, Colorado Revised Statutes. PAWSD provides water supply and distribution services within its jurisdictional boundaries. The PSSGID and PAWSD are seeking proposals from qualified engineering firms to assess and provide the following: 1. The feasibility of using the existing force main that currently is used in conjunction with the two pumping stations to pump sewage from the PSSGID to the PAWSD Vista WWTP to feed wastewater from the PAWSD district to the proposed site of the new WWTP. a. Determine pumping requirements (if necessary). b. Determine additional line size requirements (if necessary). 2. Determine design and construction steps to ensure the location of the proposed WWTP is located outside of the San Juan River's 100-Year Flood Plain and protection from the San Juan 500-year flood event. The following may be requested as additional work: 3. Estimated organic and hydraulic size of the facility for the expected life of the facility. 4. Estimated land area required for the facility. 5. Estimated design and construction cost of the facility. 6. Provide an estimated timeline of design, regulatory approval, and construction of the facility. The two Districts intend to use the selected firm to continue with the project after feasibility has been completed and extend the contract for additional feasibility studies, design services, bidding assistance and construction oversight services. The Districts will have the authority to develop a new RFQ for the subsequent phases at their sole discretion. It is the intent of the Districts 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. PAWSD reserves the right to reject any and all SOQ's, to waive any and all informalities and to disregard all non-conforming, non-responsive or conditional SOQ's. SOQ's, whether accepted or rejected, will not be returned to the engineering firm. The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time.
